Okay I'm going out on a limb here, but anything is plausible with this wacky family. Here goes:
1) The parents, especially the dad, spends so much time attention whoring and devotes the time off camera not on his family but on more antics to do for the camera.
2) The mom is totally an enabler and a co-dependent, who is now addicted to media attention and cannot focus enough attention on her boys because of her immature husband.
3) The dad probably kept brushing off Falcon if he ever asked dad to do anything, by telling him he was building the balloon for "a show." So of course, Falcon feels that his dad values being on tv and having his things on tv more than he values his son.
4) Falcon, having been kept away from this amazing shiny, floaty thing that is forbidden to go near/touch is curious and at the same time resentful.
5) Like a normal 6 year old, his curiosity got the better of him and when no one was paying attention, he went to check it out and untied it to play with it like a kite.
6) The thing was probably too much to handle for a little 6 year old, and it got away from him. Falcon, knowing his dad was going to kick his ass (selfish parents are often pretty rough with their kids) ran and hid in the garage.
7) His parents, although attention grubbing whores, found themselves in a situation where they didn't plan for this to happen, but will still milk as much press time out if it as possible, have probably beaten and shamed Falcon for losing something of such great value and made him feel super shitty, and devalued about the whole thing.
