The third one doesn’t work. You’ll just have to rewash all the dishes and then keep washing dishes all week until you can prove that you can do them properly the first time.
What Gracie said in panel #6 is exactly what I did when I was 11 and my mother told me that one of my chores from that day on was to wash the dishes. After I broke a few over about 3-4 days she said I was far to clumsy to wash dishes. Which got me out of a chore I really detested.

The last one makes no sense. If he’s not asked to do dishes, then he won’t be paying her for the job anymore. Once again she’s not thinking.

Do you want it done now, done right, or done cheap? (Pick any two).

You know your sister has your back when she thinks about the long-term for you and not what benefits her. Appreciate this, Baldo.

There’s Shel Silverstine cartoon that this reminds me of, with a similar punchline. ;-)
