You think the Kardashians are dysfunctional? Pa-leaze—they ain't got nothin' on these guys. Family issues abound. In one family, dad, who just happens to be the king, is embarrassed by his son. The son, who likes to carouse around the town and hang out with drunks at the local tavern, really doesn't care what dad thinks and shirks his responsibilities. Oh, and did we mention that dad overthrew the previous king, and everyone knows that he usurped the crown?
In another family, dad is ambitious and manipulates his son to wage a war against the current king; the son, who desperately wants to please his father, ends up getting killed in battle because his father "wasn't able" to provide the necessary troop reinforcement.
