The toddler 'is one tough cookie.'

Henry Winkler knows firsthand that when your title is upgraded to grandparent, the silly shenanigans that come with raising kids also get a little more extraordinary.

The Barry star, 77, took to social media to share evidence of the latest antics led by his youngest granddaughter, 15-month-old Frankie.

"Our youngest granddaughter is one tough cookie," Winkler wrote alongside a photo of his wife trapped inside what looked to be a dog cage while the toddler stood there content with her actions. "PLEASE let nana out !" he pleaded.

In the snap, Winkler's wife, Stacey Weitzman, 75, could be seen lying down in a large metal cage as Frankie fiddled with the lock on the door. The toddler was clearly enjoying herself, while Weitzman's facial expressions detailed discomfort as the businesswoman and activist looked to be begging to be let out.

The funny photo was initially shared via an Instagram Story posted by Frankie's mom, British-born actress Jessica Barden, known for her role as Alyssa in Netflix's drama series End of the F***ing World.

Prior to Winkler's tweet, the picture had only been shared with those close to Barden,  as the actress previously told fans that she would not be sharing any photos of Frankie publicly, "If I didn’t reply to you and you felt like I was avoiding you it’s because I was pregnant this whole year ✌🏻," she revealed in an Oct. 2021 Instagram post, later adding, "I will never post my child on here so this is still a meme account."

But obviously, this comedy act was too good not to share with the world.

Barden, 30, shares the toddler with her screenwriter husband and the youngest child of Winkler and Weitzman, Max Winkler. Max, 39, and Barden married sometime in 2019. Many speculated the couple said "I do" on March 19 of that year, after Barden shared an anniversary message in a now-deleted Instagram Story teasing that the couple made "it to 1 year of marriage."
