Killer hornet on the loose

For Xmas Gunnar received a hornet helicopter from Air Hog. He was getting pretty good at remotely flying the buzzing helicopter around the living room. While mom was taking a well deserved cat nap on the the couch, Gunnar was flying his helicopter insect around. Somehow his insect of little control had started a circling holding pattern over moms head. I saw the panic as Gunnar was trying to figure out how to get it off over mom. Slowly as it was circling it was getting closer and closer. Gunnar cuts power hoping it will drop and miss his mommy. But no, it lands square on her face. Mom shrieks in anticipated pain and shock of this giant bug on her face. Gunnar in panic, tries an emergency take off and gives it full power. With buzzing blades smacking mom's face the bug dances around her head followed by mom's screaming while swatting her hands in the air. Might as well have been a hornets nest on her face as much enthusiasm she was giving. Gunnar quickly picked up his helicopter which by now had been swatted 10 feet away, and quickly exited the room.
