Found in LA: Dolly Go Sleep Now

Another winner from the world of retail. This little tableau comes courtesy of the toy section in the local Target store.
Children are so imaginative. They just do the most adorable things.
But I think a child psychologist might find this scene interesting during their role playing.
Did some little girl read Hansel and Gretel one too many times? Is the dolly the evil witch?
Or is it a scene straight out of suburbia? Daddy doll ran off with his secretary doll.
Mommy doll has run out of her little yellow doll pills
Can someone please tell me why Mommy Doll is sticking her head in the oven?
Maybe it's because she just can't take one more trip to Target.
