The problem with being a very funny parent is you're likely to end up with very funny kids — and there's always the danger that you may be on the receiving end of their jokes.

That was apparently Barry star Bill Hader's experience recently when he went to a restaurant with his kids and spotted Chris Pratt at a neighbouring table. He didn't want his children to bother Pratt, but when his eight-year-old daughter said she knew Pratt's son, he relented.

"I walk over and I go 'Hey Chris, sorry, but my daughter knows your son.'" Hader explains to Jimmy Kimmel in the clip above. "And my daughter goes: 'I don't know his son. You wanted to meet Chris Pratt.'"

Pure evil genius.

"I was like, 'Why did you do that?', and she was like, 'I don't know,'" Hader explains. "And I was like, 'You're going to make me so much money.'"

Definitely a future SNL star in the making.
