It's not unusual for parents to offer a hand when it comes to their kids' school projects, but one TikToker's parents truly went the extra mile for their daughter. As shared by Mia Finney [3] on Wednesday, for her final film project, her parents agreed to help re-create the famous four-way call scene from Mean Girls [4], and their dedication was unmatched. In the viral video that's already racked up almost 800,000 views, her dad, Ernie Finney, who's also on TikTok [5], played Karen Smith, and her mom, Gretchen Wieners, while the 21-year-old took on the roles of Cady Heron and Regina George. While each of their performances were superb, Ernie's "I can't go out, I'm sick" paired with his fake coughs are simply iconic. And in case you were wondering, yes, Mia got the A she deserved for the project.

Mia, who has over six million followers on TikTok, temporarily moved back home to her parents' [6] at the start of the pandemic and started making videos with Ernie, where the two take on viral challenges and re-create scenes at their favourite places, like the movie theatres or a camp site. Watch the hilarious Mean Girls reenactment above, and check out more of Mia's videos on TikTok [7].
