In the clip, the little toddler "washes" dishes in the sink as his dad explains that he's been helping for 20 minutes – but hasn't actually cleaned a single dish yet.

The little boy bends farther into the sink, and the water spout soaks him completely, leaving him confused about what's happening.

"To be fair it's more difficult to clean when you are randomly waterboarding yourself," one viewer joked.
