Hello...Ashton...Is That You?

What is the probability that one family would endure 3 basement floods of varying causes in the span of one year of first-time home ownership?  What about the probability of said family enduring this shortly following an almost unendurable 1+ year of unemployment?  What about that same family enduring that same third flood on the same day their 3 year old got a mysterious 104 degree fever with hallucinations and vomiting?  Complete with approximately 2 hours of sleep.  Are you doing statistics in your head?  Oh, I'm sorry that's only Drew.  What if during the time the restoration crew is tearing apart the newly installed drywall in the recently cleaned up and primed (twice last weekend) basement they find a separate and completely different leak under another segment of now torn up ceiling caused by a nail shot into a copper pipe by a handyman working too quickly?  What if I throw in 2 separate and equally inaccurate diagnoses of ringworm in a span of 4 months to a pregnant/post-partum woman with an unknown (at the time) allergy to a new lotion?  Oh, I threw ya with that last one, huh? 
Yeeeeaaaahhhhh.  I'm fairly certain we're being Punk'd.  Except, I thought that show was cancelled.
Hello?  Is there a camera behind this door?  Hello?
