The premise

Here’s the bit.

A commercial offers frustrated parents the services of Charlie Newall, a cheerful visitor who switches instantly to furious shouting when children misbehave. His threats turn a chaotic family meal into quiet compliance. The bargain service also covers homework and bedtime, where his looming presence makes obedience a matter of fear.
