It all started when the clever little girl, named Marchelinha, decided she didn't want her fingernails cutting and decided to pretend her dad was hurting her every time he came close with the scissors.

Mustering up a fake cry and a throwing in a few pretend squeals for good measure, Marchelinha attempted to 'scare' her dad into giving up his task.
