Welcome to Escape This

0:03

Podcast, a show that's

0:05

a mix between tabletop

0:07

roleplaying and escape room

0:20

puzzles. This is

0:22

a guest Game Master episode. Every

0:25

episode we play through an audio escape

0:27

room. In this case, Danny and I

0:29

are playing a room hosted by a

0:31

guest. And the guest in this case

0:34

is from Spencer is puzzling. Welcome

0:36

to the show, Spencer Beebe. That's

0:38

me. Hi. Thanks for

0:41

having me. I mean, thank you for

0:43

coming on. We're very excited to play

0:45

this game. Now we were very excited

0:47

because we have played physical escape rooms

0:49

that you've designed that were phenomenal. They

0:51

were very, very enjoyable. Before

0:53

we get into what this room is, do

0:55

you want to tell people at home about

0:57

Spencer is puzzling? Certainly. So I've been designing

0:59

some at home tabletop puzzle games. I've

1:02

only made one thus far, but people are like,

1:04

it's called lost in the shuffle. But

1:06

yeah, Spencer is puzzling.com is the place

1:08

for that. Hopefully

1:10

this game is good. Hopefully

1:14

you like me when it's done. Exactly.

1:16

People are going to listen to this. And

1:19

if this is a terrible audio escape room,

1:21

they'll never go to Spencer is puzzling.com. They'll

1:23

go to their browser and they'll say, ban

1:26

Spencer is playing.com. Bring it on jerks. I'm

1:29

going to force you to love me. Not

1:31

the first time that we've abused the

1:33

listener base and call them jerks or

1:35

what. You're fitting right in. Well,

1:37

we're very excited to play the game. But

1:39

first, let's learn a little bit more about Spencer.

1:42

Every time we have someone on the show, we ask the same

1:44

questions. And the first is, this

1:47

is an escape room podcast. What

1:49

is your escape room experience? My

1:51

escape room experience is incredible, obviously.

1:55

No, I've played a fair few and I've

1:57

designed much less, but I have designed some.

2:02

I love them a lot. I like to think that I'm okay at

2:04

them. Are you the type who

2:06

is an obsessive number keeper about

2:08

how many rooms you've done? Not at all.

2:10

I get Morty and then every once in a

2:12

while I'll have like a flash of like, oh

2:14

yeah, I remember I played like three rooms that

2:17

I totally forgot about and I'll go on Morty

2:19

and like type them in, but it's still just

2:21

like, you can see scrolls of like, oh yeah,

2:23

I have them. We

2:25

spent so long and all

2:27

of the spreadsheet escape room

2:29

fans making fun of us

2:31

behind our back, saying to these weirdos who

2:34

don't keep a spreadsheet of every game they've

2:36

played and the number of puzzles they solved

2:38

per game. It's like, what do you

2:40

just go and play a game? Yeah, I only got

2:42

Morty about three months ago. So then it was a,

2:45

oh dear, oh no, how am I going

2:47

to do this? Four years

2:49

of catch up or like memories

2:51

trying to like dive in. And even

2:53

then I tried my best and I've only got like 50

2:55

or so on there and I've gone, this

2:57

doesn't feel right. There's definitely more. I've

2:59

done more than that. Well, look, the other

3:01

element of this show is it's escape

3:03

rooms in a tabletop role playing style.

3:06

What is your tabletop role playing experience?

3:09

Decent. I would, I would give myself a

3:11

decent. I have played a good amount of

3:13

Dungeons and Dragons. I've DM'd a

3:16

little bit of fifth edition. I

3:18

don't know all the rules that great. So who knows

3:20

how accurate we are, but that's,

3:22

I think that's the point. Yeah.

3:25

I just like setting up real

3:27

big, like super big, Broner dad jokes

3:29

that take like four play sessions

3:31

to pay off. And

3:35

then I fall into a fit of laughter and everyone

3:37

stares at me like, wait, like eight hours of a

3:40

dad joke for you to solve. I

3:42

think we're probably good to start to get right into

3:44

it. Before we start with the room, do you have

3:46

any like, should we just jump in

3:49

right away or do you have any like set

3:51

up or caveats or Do you have a tone

3:53

spoiler that you want to give us to get us in the mood? Yeah. Any,

3:55

any, any little hints and jibes and do you

3:57

have a title? We can be like, Ooh, interesting.

4:00

Do I even have a title? Oh,

4:02

the working title is Class Pet

4:05

Thieves. Ooh, see now

4:07

that. I have no idea what

4:09

this does. I'm into it. I just

4:11

remembered that I never went back and changed their

4:13

thought of a title. So it's

4:15

called Class Pet Thieves. Wonderful.

4:18

It should have been changed. There's no class. There's

4:20

no pet. Everyone's perfectly fine with everything. In the

4:22

Google Doc, they put the Doc title like way

4:24

up to the left and you forget about it.

4:26

Yeah, who's changing that? Yeah. So

4:30

it's very dive right inable. It doesn't

4:32

need to be too much setup. In

4:34

that case, that sounds like a hint. I

4:37

think we dive right in. You

4:40

stand before the front reception desk

4:42

at Smiling Horizons Early Learning Center.

4:46

Your guest passes have been arranged in advance. You

4:48

ask the cliche grouchy receptionist for directions

4:51

to the first grade classroom and head

4:53

that direction. Your good friend

4:55

Spencer was recently hired here as a teacher,

4:57

today being their first day on the job.

5:00

You know, this job means a lot to them.

5:02

So you came as fast as possible when you

5:04

received a text in all caps reading emergency. I

5:06

need help. Meet me at the school, please. There

5:11

it is. Classroom 104. A

5:14

bell rings out as you approach. Ooh,

5:18

sound effects. We've

5:21

said no. Well, laddie down,

5:24

sound effects. I'm trying

5:26

to save you some work, Phil, okay? Soon

5:30

after, the door to the classroom bursts open

5:33

and a dozen or so kids excitedly sprint

5:35

out to recess. Once

5:37

the stampede has passed, you let yourself into the

5:39

room. A commotion in the

5:41

middle of the room grabs your attention. Tables

5:43

and chairs are being jostled around by something scrambling

5:45

around the floor. The commotion stops

5:47

as Spencer frantically pops his head up from under the

5:50

desk. His dour expression lightens up when

5:52

he sees you. Thank goodness you're here. Watch

5:54

your step. Spencer hurriedly tiptoes over

5:56

to you at the entrance. You've

5:58

got to help me. first day here and

6:01

I've already lost meatball. I

6:03

don't have all the details but apparently the

6:05

last time meatball went missing the students were

6:07

totally heartbroken and the previous teacher got fired.

6:10

That's why there was an opening for this job

6:13

in the first place. Right now the kids

6:15

have recess then an assembly followed by

6:17

lunch. So that gives you just

6:19

over an hour to find that little furball. I'd

6:22

like to help you look but I've got your duty

6:25

right now and at the assembly I get to introduce

6:27

the yo-yo guy. Oh

6:32

yeah the previous teacher did successfully

6:34

find meatball one time. Going

6:36

crazy in the process if the rumors are true

6:38

but I think they left some of their stuff

6:40

in the bottom desk drawer since no one can

6:43

get it open. That might be a good place to start. Spencer

6:46

glances out the window beside the entrance and panics. Oh

6:48

geez I gotta go please find meatball and get her

6:50

back in the cage before the kids get back. Spencer

6:53

runs through the door and out to the

6:55

playground. Tommy do not put that in your

6:57

mouth. Drop it. Drop it now. His voice

6:59

trails off as the door closes behind him. You

7:03

are standing in a lovely classroom by all

7:05

appearances as you scope out the perimeter. Ahead

7:08

of you to the north there's a large whiteboard at the

7:11

front of the class with some writing on it. In

7:13

the northeast corner sits the teacher's desk.

7:17

The east wall is absolutely blasted

7:19

with tacky stapled on wall decorations

7:21

and past art projects. In

7:24

the center of the wall are several

7:26

shelves full of colorful organizer bins. The

7:30

southeast corner has built-in wall

7:32

cubbies each with a lunchbox

7:34

inside. Beside

7:37

them on the south wall is the entrance that you're standing

7:39

in front of. The center

7:41

of the south wall has a large window that looks

7:43

out to the playground. Beneath the

7:45

window is a cozy story time.

7:47

area filled with colorful beanbag chairs,

7:50

floor pillows, fully stocked bookshelves and

7:52

a large plush rug with the letters of

7:54

the alphabet laid out in a grid. My

7:56

rug was only big enough to get up to O. Okay.

8:02

All right. The

8:04

play area continues into the southwest

8:06

corner, where there's a collection of

8:08

building blocks and stuffed animals and some little

8:11

kid dress-up stuff. The

8:13

main feature is a large cardboard refrigerator box

8:15

that's been done up to look like a

8:17

castle. Proceeding

8:19

around the west wall, you

8:22

see a closed door labeled supply

8:24

closet. Aside

8:26

that, you see a long stretch of

8:28

countertop with cabinets above and below that

8:31

runs all the way to the northwest corner. You

8:34

see a sizable animal cage with a sheet

8:36

draped over it on the left side of

8:38

the counter, and the far

8:41

corner of the counter has a large sink.

8:43

Perfect. We're cleaning up after Art and Science

8:45

projects. Okay. Lovely.

8:49

The center of the room is filled

8:52

with three large rectangular tables with

8:54

four chairs around each. Each

8:56

chair has a colorful backpack either looped over

8:59

or resting under it. Aside

9:02

from the large area rug in the cozy

9:04

corner, the floor is a bland dark

9:06

grey carpet, and the ceiling has

9:08

a smattering of balloons tacked to

9:10

it haphazardly all over. What? And

9:14

you are welcome to explore. Okay.

9:17

I have many questions, mostly

9:20

for ourselves. Fair. I

9:22

can answer those questions. You can? Yep. What

9:25

is meatball? Meatball? Okay. When I first pictured it, I

9:27

was 100% picturing

9:29

a Komodo dragon. I don't know why.

9:32

Then I heard fur, and I was like, great.

9:34

It's not even a monitor of any kind. You know fur? Oh,

9:37

man. I mis-mentioned fur. It has fur.

9:39

Okay. Its name is Meatball. It

9:42

could be a little hamster, a big fat

9:44

fat fat hamster called Meatball. Or could

9:47

be anything. Anything at all.

9:49

Was Clasp Pet ever a thing? Never.

9:52

I've never seen a Clasp Pet in my

9:54

life. I don't think it's as much of a

9:56

thing here. It does seem like an interesting way

9:58

to introduce the Komodo dragon. concept of death to

10:01

small children. I

10:04

don't know if that was the intent behind the

10:06

classroom program. Yeah, but, you know, this is how it

10:08

works out. I'm just relieved

10:10

when I was getting, when we were getting

10:13

like, oh no, SOS emergency messages from our

10:15

friend and he was in the classroom. I

10:18

assumed that the children had,

10:20

you know, revolted and

10:22

that there was going to be a cage.

10:26

Okay, I'm going to try and figure

10:28

out, I can tell if I can remember, I think

10:30

we know where meatball is. Oh, please.

10:32

So here we go. Originally, before

10:34

we got here, he was on top of

10:36

spaghetti, all covered in chicken. I

10:40

mean, they lost poor meatball because I suppose one of

10:42

the kids might have sneezed or something like that. So

10:44

he rolled off the counter. I'm

10:46

going to save some time. Did we shut the

10:48

door behind us? Oh yeah, we shut the door behind us. It feels

10:50

like that was probably a good idea. Yeah,

10:53

the door did shut automatically. I

10:55

don't remember enough of that song, so we're going to actually have to do the escape

10:57

room. Okay. I

11:00

mean, they was rushing, well, it was

11:03

Spencer that was rushing around the desk looking

11:05

for things. It wasn't necessarily

11:07

meatball. We have a

11:09

command from Spencer, the real Spencer, not this fake

11:11

Spencer, he's running the room. Try to check desk. The real in-universe.

11:13

Take a look at that desk, see what we need. We should

11:16

look at his desk first. All right, let's go

11:18

to that teacher's desk. You

11:20

walk over to a run-of-the-mill desk

11:22

adorned with a day planner, attendant

11:24

sheet, a shiny red apple,

11:27

a big mug full of pens and

11:29

pencils and rulers with a world's best

11:31

teacher who's taken over halfway through the

11:33

semester printed on the side. Good.

11:36

There's pencil sharpener, scotch tape stapler. It's

11:39

a veritable who's who of stuff on

11:41

a desk. Nice. You

11:43

may say it was a day planner and something

11:45

else that felt lovely. An attendant sheet. Ooh,

11:48

lovely. And are the drawers.

11:51

Walking behind the desk, you see two drawers on

11:53

the right-hand side, one upper and one lower. There's

11:56

also a decently comfy-looking chair. All

11:58

right, we were told to listen. Jiggle that

12:00

bottom draw. Try as you might

12:02

it won't budge Not even seem

12:04

to be any keyholes or locking mechanisms,

12:07

but some reasons this drawer refuses to

12:09

open. Okay Now

12:11

the drawer above it first of all what's

12:13

in that? Top drawer slides

12:16

open easily inside is a letter

12:18

to Spencer from the high school administrators It

12:20

reads dear Spencer welcome to the Smiling Horizon

12:23

family on behalf of the whole team I

12:25

just want to say I hope you don't

12:27

screw up and go crazy like your credit

12:29

center Best of luck sign miss Schlossky There's

12:33

also a crumpled notes clearly written by

12:35

a first grader that reads

12:37

dear new teacher, man It

12:39

is okay for Juliana to eat candy for

12:41

lunch every day When you

12:43

see Juliana trade all of her yucky healthy

12:45

food for cookies and candy at lunch. That's

12:48

cool You don't need to tell her parents.

12:50

Goodbye, and it's signed my mom I love

12:53

it Beautiful

12:56

now, do you know my follow-up

12:58

question the testing of things? Can we

13:01

pull this top drawer all the way out in

13:03

order to gain access to this bottom drawer? It's

13:06

almost too easy to pull the top floor

13:08

completely out of the desk You

13:10

get the sense this maneuver has been done many

13:12

times to access the stuff drawer beneath With

13:15

the top drawer removed you have easy

13:18

access to the bottom drawer. You find

13:20

a small lockbox labeled confiscated contraband There's

13:23

a key near it, but it doesn't work on the lock

13:25

box There's also

13:27

a large folded up bit of poster paper

13:29

with a sticky note on it The

13:31

note reads for my predecessor

13:33

if meatball gets out again

13:35

follow these instructions signed mr.

13:37

Kimball PS it's

13:40

best not to mention how you achieve step two The

13:43

poster paper is going to unfold to be pretty large So

13:45

when you're done here at the desk you can go to

13:47

a classroom table to spread it out Okay,

13:49

so there's a box of contraband. It's locked needs

13:52

a key. There's a key, but it doesn't open

13:54

the contraband box And

13:56

there is a note That

13:58

says follow the instructions but

14:00

we haven't you my predecessor pred

14:03

yes is that

14:06

the opposite direction what is your

14:08

post and to the sense oh

14:10

my god what is the opposite

14:12

for my successor

14:16

yes that's a normal word and I should

14:18

know that it's just been winning and

14:21

that's actually what I said and we can check

14:23

the thing yeah we do need success great

14:26

okay well let's take

14:28

this key and have a bit of a wonder but

14:31

we've also got to take this giant piece of paper yeah

14:33

should we lay it out on a desk and read it let's do

14:35

it you unfold the

14:37

poster paper and see there are some notes scrawled all

14:39

over it you set it down on one of

14:41

the large classroom table so you can fully spread it out mr.

14:44

Kimball seems to have frantically drawn out a map

14:46

of the classroom the top

14:48

is labeled operation capture class head

14:51

hmm everything on the map

14:53

seems to match your surroundings appropriately there

14:56

is an X marked in the middle

14:58

of the west wall labeled favorite hiding

15:00

spot in

15:02

the middle of the map there's a list of instructions that

15:04

reads step one scare

15:07

her out of favorite hiding spot parentheses

15:10

loud noise step

15:12

two determine favorite

15:14

treat changes constantly hmm

15:18

and step three leave trail

15:20

of treats from her second hiding

15:22

spot into cage we

15:25

don't know the second favorite hiding spot we'll probably see

15:27

her go there that's my hope does

15:30

the X on the west wall line up

15:32

with the supply closet or does it line

15:34

up with nothing like is it explicitly not

15:36

the supply closet now that you've got

15:38

sort of an X in the middle of this

15:40

west wall as you scan the west wall for

15:42

possible hiding spots you do hone in on an

15:44

air vent near the ceiling above the top row

15:47

of cabinets some of the metal slats in the

15:49

corner of the vent has been suspiciously bent to

15:51

the side creating a big enough gap for a

15:53

small critter to crawl through okay

15:56

let's assume that meatball is in

15:58

there lovely I

16:00

have a point on this question. What

16:03

Arnold Schwarzenegger movie has Kimball in it?

16:05

Isn't that someone in a... It doesn't Kimball, it's from

16:08

the Fugitive. Oh, maybe I'm thinking of

16:10

the Fugitive. Maybe there's no Schwarzenegger at all. And I'm

16:12

just picking someone yelling Kimball. Well,

16:14

Mr. Kimball is actually Arnold

16:16

Schwarzenegger's identity he assumes

16:18

in Kindergarten Cop. Ahhh, okay, there's

16:20

both a Heath Kimball. And

16:23

you have a covered in Easter egg. There

16:25

is Kimball, but there's also... Kimball!

16:27

I didn't kill my wife! Is that that

16:29

one? Alright, good. Um, okay.

16:33

So this teacher killed his wife. That's what we've

16:35

got. Um... That's

16:38

the part two. That's the part two. That's the real estate.

16:41

And then tragically left because of his tumour? There's

16:44

so much to look at. We've looked at the desk, I'm feeling pretty good.

16:47

We don't know where that key goes. We don't know where to find

16:49

another key. There's nothing... There's

16:52

no value if we like looked at the

16:54

teacher's chair to be like, ooh, one of

16:56

the wheels is made of carbonite. Ah, yeah,

16:58

nothing of significance coming out of the chair.

17:00

Beautiful. What do you want to look at next? I

17:02

don't want to wreck any of the

17:04

kids' privacy just yet. But if we

17:06

need to do some treat wrangling,

17:09

maybe we should go look at the lunch boxes

17:11

just in case. Because the kids have gone out

17:13

to recess. We know that at some point they're

17:15

going out to lunch. Who knows when our food

17:17

supplies will be dwindling in this room. Good.

17:19

Okay. So we're checking out the cubbies. Is that what's going on? I

17:21

think we should check the lunchbox cubbies. Each kid seems

17:23

to have their own colourful lunchbox, except for

17:25

one kid who brought a brown paper bag.

17:28

The lunch boxes all have different kids show characters on

17:30

them. You see an

17:32

adolescent mutated martial art turtle's lunchbox.

17:35

There's My Tiny Horsey. There's

17:37

Captain Australia. The First of Inja.

17:40

Periphera Bill Squarepants. You get the idea. Yeah, I'll

17:43

take it. There's also a small trash can in

17:45

the corner that has a crumpled bit of paper

17:47

inside. I don't like touching

17:49

things in bins. I'll get it. What does it say? The

17:52

trash can looks clean enough inside so

17:54

you don't mind grabbing... This is a

17:56

first grade classroom. Yeah, that you're a

17:58

fool's master. I'm

18:02

just telling you what's written here, okay? Opening

18:04

it up, it seems to be a note that has

18:07

been passed back and forth between two students. It

18:09

starts. To Juliana, you

18:11

said if I got you the key, you could rescue

18:13

my pet. Where is he? Underneath

18:16

that in a different but equally sloppy handwriting

18:18

it reads. To Dylan, I

18:20

tried, but the drawer is stuck shut. How does he get

18:22

in? Dylan has written a

18:24

reply beneath that that reads, I remember Mr. Kimball said

18:26

to someone that the drawer was stuck, but it didn't

18:29

matter. Hurry up. I need to get him back. I

18:31

need to feed him. And

18:33

Juliana has written a final reply. I

18:35

will hide the key under letters until we get into

18:37

the drawer. Um, can

18:40

I hold up this confiscated goods box

18:42

to my ear? Is

18:44

there anything moving in there? Negative

18:48

on that. There's some items around on

18:50

the round, some, I don't

18:52

know, wrappers, crinkling and some plastic

18:55

and metal hanging around in there. Okay.

18:57

Yeah. I don't quite get the,

18:59

the, the things

19:01

here. They're like, if I

19:03

got you the key, you could rescue my

19:05

pet. So something is in

19:08

this confiscated box that this,

19:10

that Dylan wants back. Okay. That he's calling

19:12

a pet. Maybe it's a ruck. Sure.

19:15

But what did,

19:17

um, they say they were hiding the

19:19

key under, it was letters. Probably

19:22

under the rug. I hope

19:24

so. We'll check that

19:26

in a second. Shall we? Why, what do you want

19:28

to do next? Well, weren't we also looking at,

19:30

was there anything else to look at with those lunch boxes?

19:32

Like do you want to look in them for food? Yeah.

19:35

Maybe open a couple just to make sure that we've

19:37

got some selection. Sure. Uh,

19:41

yes. A veritable who's who of stuff in

19:43

lunch boxes. So you've got

19:45

sandwiches, apples, Capri Sun juice

19:47

box. Pretty much if

19:49

you thought it could be in a lunch box,

19:51

you could probably find one over here. Are there

19:53

any, um, Dunkaroos? Any

19:56

space food? They don't exist here anymore and I

19:58

miss them. Um. Oh yeah, this

20:00

could be fun. What about

20:02

those old biscuits from the late

20:04

90s that were shaped like ghosts?

20:06

So they don't make any more.

20:09

Nobody can help me identify these ghosts

20:11

this yet. What about those little chocolate-filled

20:15

kind of crunchy... Oh, the hazelnut thing? Yeah,

20:17

hazelnut-y kind of chocolate. And where their logo

20:20

was like the grossest tree with a face.

20:22

Yeah, it's like a cross between a tree

20:24

and a slimmer. Because they don't make those anymore either.

20:26

It's messed up. I'm

20:29

not familiar with any of these. How about just

20:31

some oval-tinis? Oh, some oval-tinis. Oval-tinis?

20:36

Food is always the fun one. I

20:39

know oval-teen, but oval-tinis. All

20:42

right, I'm back. I'm back. I'm ready to go. And I'm...

20:44

Let's... Should we just follow our path and go to the

20:46

letter mat and see if there's a key under these? It

20:48

makes sense. First of all, let's look at the letter mat.

20:50

Let's look at the letter mat. Pretending we don't know there's

20:52

a key under it. Sure, sure, sure. It

20:55

is a rectangular rug. Has the letters of

20:57

the alphabet laid out in a grid. And

21:00

that won't matter too much for the rest of

21:02

the game. Great. Can we look underneath

21:04

and see if there is a key? I know it seems just

21:06

like there's got to be a puzzle, but it might not. Lifting

21:10

up the alphabet rug, you find a small key. Hell

21:13

yeah. Does it fit into our contraband

21:15

box? The key from under the

21:17

rug fits in the lock and the lid pops

21:19

open. Thanks, Juliana. Have all the candy you

21:21

want. Inside, you find

21:23

a pack of gum, a large chocolate

21:26

bar, and a green Tamagotchi. Oh,

21:29

of course. Can

21:31

we wake up the Tamagotchi creature?

21:34

It's probably dying. Please, can we feed it? Yeah,

21:36

we gotta press the feed button. We gotta clean

21:38

up all the shit. Clean

21:40

the poop! You can press

21:42

the... Yes, yeah, you clean up all the poop and

21:44

you feed the Tamagotchi. Have they gotten more

21:46

advanced in the last 26 years? It

21:49

makes this sound. Nice!

21:52

And that's... and it's got a big smile

21:54

on its face. Is it an

21:56

identifiable animal or is it a blob? I think

21:58

they're all... It's a blob. Yeah, absolutely.

22:01

Okay, we've got this Tamagotchi, we've got a chocolate bar, we've got

22:03

some chewing gum. I don't think there's anything else that we need

22:06

right now. I say we've got to keep looking around. Sure.

22:09

Do you think that it's worth like trying to

22:11

clamber on benches and take a peek inside

22:13

the vent? It could be, but do

22:15

you mind if we finish off the east wall first? Oh,

22:17

sure. Because there's also just like the art projects that are

22:19

up on the east wall. And there are more cubbies, weren't there?

22:22

The work cubbies. Oh, man. Like there's

22:24

a lot of detail on these cubbies. Correct. Okay,

22:26

can we have a look at first of all the

22:28

art projects on the wall? So it's almost

22:31

an incomprehensible collage of

22:34

past art projects and like little like

22:36

helpful diagrams of like the days of

22:38

the week, the colors of the rainbow

22:40

and like this is how like we're

22:42

learning out of right

22:44

up the letters, not too much that

22:47

you can zero in on a

22:49

real smattering of staple audible

22:52

decor. All of the stuff that

22:54

if you're doing a physical escape room, you hope

22:56

that all of the players who are coming in

22:59

are going to know already. But

23:01

just in case someone thinks it's outside knowledge,

23:03

it's on the wall. Spelling, you can't

23:05

have spelling in an escape room. Also

23:08

here on the east wall, there are some colorful

23:10

storage bins that are filled with well organized arts

23:12

and crafts supplies. So let's print

23:14

markers, glue sticks, safety scissors and

23:16

construction paper. Again, well organized

23:19

art supplies in the year one

23:21

classroom. That's amazing. To me, both

23:23

of those smack of we should come

23:25

back here when we have something specific to look

23:27

for. Frankly, at the moment, based

23:29

on the gum and the art supplies, I'm

23:31

thinking we need some sort of a sticky

23:33

lasso to get maple. Forget

23:36

the instructions. That's what we want. What's next?

23:39

I mean, it makes sense to look at the west wall

23:41

and see if we can do what we could just like

23:43

go to the vent and be like, yes, can we climb? Hey,

23:46

get out of here. Get

23:50

out of here. Yeah, you can

23:52

get a little bit of a little bit of

23:54

height there. This classroom is very, very high ceilings

23:56

for a first year classroom. Third time maybe 15

23:58

foot up the wall. this bet. However

24:00

high it seems you wouldn't be able to easily

24:02

reach or do stuff to. We don't measure stuff

24:05

in feet, so you can tell us anything you

24:07

want. Oh, I'm so sorry. No, no, just say

24:09

any number of feet, we'll have to accept it.

24:12

A million feet. There is one

24:14

specific measurement later on that I did localize

24:16

for Australia. You'll know it in an app.

24:20

Wonderful. 10 kangaroos

24:22

high it is. Okay,

24:28

is this the sort of height that we could

24:30

overcome through the virtue of standing on

24:32

a chair? Negative on that. You might be

24:34

able to get a hand up to like touch

24:36

the top of the cabinets there but you wouldn't

24:38

be able to get over them. Wonderful. That's what

24:40

I expected. I will say at this point, this

24:42

would probably stick out if you as you're really

24:44

focused on getting up to this event of those

24:46

balloons that were taxed to the ceiling all over.

24:48

There does seem to be one really, really right

24:50

neck just above the vent. There's a nice big

24:53

button right there. Gotcha. Does

24:56

it have a... oh, so if we can

24:58

pop it. That's a loud noise. It's

25:01

a loud noise. That's fun. Beautiful.

25:03

Okay. Should we make

25:05

that an immediate goal or should we look

25:07

through all of the other stuff throughout

25:09

the room? Let's try and keep looking. Let's do plenty

25:11

of stuff to look at. I would... A big

25:14

scatter. Yeah, why don't we try, for

25:16

instance. Check

25:18

it out. I want to look at the cage. There's some

25:20

CSI on the cage. Okay, yeah, let's look at the cage. Oh,

25:22

sure. It has a sheet draped

25:24

over it with a little paper sign taped to

25:27

it that reads, Sleepy Pet Do Not Disturb. Crousey.

25:30

Lifting the sheet, you see a pretty large metal

25:32

wire pet cage complete with a running wheel, upside

25:35

down water bottle, colorful plastic tubes to crawl through,

25:37

and a bunch of soft bedding covering the floor.

25:40

On the side, there is a small door to let pets

25:42

in and out of the cage that is currently closed. Oh,

25:45

she'll never get back in if that's okay. All right.

25:48

Yeah, first of all, let's open that door. Yes, you

25:50

can make it. There's a little metal pull tab

25:52

that you pinched and it opens very easily. Nice.

25:55

All right, let's leave that open. Okay, so that's okay. That's

25:57

done. That seems pretty normal. We're going to move on.

26:00

too long. Okay. Let's head to the business. Let's head

26:02

to the whiteboard. There's stuff written on it. Oh, there was

26:04

stuff written on it. That's fair. The

26:06

whiteboard has some writing left on

26:08

it from the previous lesson. And

26:11

I'm gonna send you a link to what

26:13

that looks like. Sweet. For

26:15

the listeners at home, this will be linked

26:17

in the show notes. But Danny,

26:20

would you please describe it for us? How

26:23

was that? How'd I do? That's perfect.

26:25

All right. Oh, boy. This

26:27

is one of those teaching methods

26:30

that doesn't

26:32

make sense to people who haven't been in school for a while.

26:35

Common Core Alphabet, it says. Imagine

26:37

a box with letters around it. Depending

26:40

on what letters and where they are,

26:42

you can imagine a new letter inside

26:44

the box. Examples.

26:46

And now we've got a couple of pictures

26:48

of examples. What

26:51

is? Oh, my God. Okay.

26:53

First example. All right. So first

26:55

example, on top of the box, we've got a Z. And

26:59

then inside the box underneath it, we've

27:01

got an N. Okay. Which is like the

27:03

Z rotated 90 degrees. Yeah, sure. And then

27:05

the second box, on the bottom

27:07

of the box underneath it, we've got a capital

27:09

P looking thing. But then inside the box, it

27:12

looks like a lowercase B. Again, just a flip

27:14

situation, but a different kind of flip. Has not

27:16

been rotated. Exactly. It's been mirrored

27:18

vertically. Yeah. And then the third

27:21

one, there is a capital E outside

27:23

the box to the left and

27:25

a regular normal capital E inside

27:28

the box. So it looks

27:30

like if something's on the left of the box, it

27:33

stays the same. The

27:36

last one. Okay. We got a

27:38

couple of things. On the left, there is an O with

27:40

a plus above it, positive valence

27:43

O. And then

27:45

to the right, there is a D, negative

27:47

valence D. And then both of those together

27:49

inside the box have formed a C. Which

27:51

to me is like, okay, we add the O on

27:53

the left and because it's on the left, it's a

27:56

full O. The D on the right, we take it

27:58

away, but all we've done is take it away. away

28:00

the right half of the D. So maybe

28:02

if it was D on the right and

28:04

no... But then there was also no

28:06

vertical line of the D2 takeaway. Exactly

28:09

right. So the whole D hasn't gone

28:11

in. Oh no you're

28:13

right you can take that away. Yeah that's interesting. I'm

28:15

not 100% sure what happens from the right because it

28:17

could be only the right side goes in. But it

28:19

could be the whole thing goes away. Or it could

28:21

be the whole thing. We'll find out. For

28:23

two-step formulas, treat innermost

28:25

letters separate from outermost.

28:28

Use the... Crossed out zero.

28:31

Symbol when there is an outer

28:33

letter but no inner letter. Alright

28:35

well fortunately this is nonsense right

28:37

now to my understanding. I don't

28:39

think we need this at the

28:41

moment. Yep that's for later. We'll find that puzzle

28:43

and we'll solve it then. Yep it will

28:46

be perfectly comprehensible once we see what

28:48

we're putting it on. The

28:50

floor was mentioned as having carpet.

28:53

Is there anything interesting about looking at the carpet

28:55

on the floor? Nothing at

28:57

all. It's a very grey carpet.

29:00

Wonderful. I'm just glad that nothing so

29:02

far has been described as sticky. To

29:05

my eyes there's still a couple things to look at.

29:07

Oh yes. Yes there are. Let's tick them off. Why

29:09

don't we go to the... Let's do

29:11

some easy ones. Let's go to the south wall.

29:13

Look out the window wistfully. What am I going to

29:15

say as an easy one? Let's look out wistfully.

29:18

You look out the window you see...

29:20

Wistfully. Sorry. You

29:24

look out wistfully. Thank

29:27

you. To see kids playing,

29:29

birds chirping, the sun shining. If

29:32

you hadn't looked wistfully it wouldn't look so nice.

29:34

But it looks very nice and playful

29:37

outside. Alright now I breathe

29:39

heavily to fog up the window and see

29:41

if there are any secret messages. There's

29:43

a lot of smudgy fingerprints down low. Oh no.

29:46

What was I thinking? Pretty

29:49

clean up top. Okay. Okay. Well

29:51

there wasn't... Is there anything of no doubt

29:53

that maybe there's another... We'll look for something if we need

29:55

to look window and so there's

29:57

a window. It would be... Because I want the kids to be

29:59

the... Laughably on Adderall crimes and

30:01

ah, yes, And. I know the

30:04

love of oh yes, look at the door. We came

30:06

in. For. Some strange reason you

30:08

check the back of the door fully expecting

30:10

to find critical visit to help guide your

30:12

way. Unfortunately, it's just the back of a

30:15

door. We always get a check

30:17

old on. let me write that down word for. The

30:23

area that had the lead a map you mentioned

30:25

also had like the little bookshelf and and like

30:27

them. Bean. Bags and all that jazz.

30:31

Is racing? What is it? And

30:33

the books on the bookshelf? negative

30:35

on that. Ah, just year. Usual

30:37

birds, the bears, And that I

30:40

can. We slumped down on the bean bags at

30:42

all of them one by one to see If

30:44

any thinks I'm really gonna regret this is to

30:46

see if anything through South. Surrey you

30:48

certainly can message will self

30:50

soothe a suffer severe. Perfect.

30:53

Said I said we'd seal around them to see

30:55

if we can feel anything, but I think. This

30:58

whole area was just let him at yeah

31:00

fine. I'll be suspicious later.

31:02

On that note we go to the next sort of

31:04

area. along were had the toys in the blocks in

31:07

the dress up castle or that would crawl into the

31:09

castle late. Alice's look at the stuff that's not yet.

31:11

Most years we have a little a sort of stuff.

31:13

This. Is very unkempt before her of the

31:15

room. Just a. Massive it serves

31:17

like piled up into the corner. With.

31:20

A wooden building blocks dress

31:22

up stuff like doctors, firefighters,

31:25

police, And a whole

31:27

smattering of stuff the but the different animals.

31:30

The. Spout it for this corner. I. Poke all

31:32

of the stuffed animals just in case one of

31:34

them an actual animal playing pretend. Perfect.

31:37

A fine idea. All these animals. Are.

31:39

Soft are at. Great. And it

31:42

led to the castle is also it yet. Is.

31:44

It didn't look at or that crawl inside. Why they.

31:47

Are both. Hell. The

31:49

huge cardboard box is of the size of

31:51

or a refrigerator and has begun up with

31:54

market principles by the Fun Castle. Thought

31:56

flaps of the box or taped to be held

31:58

up right. Have little rentals. Out on top.

32:01

There's. A large door drawn on the front of

32:03

the box with a big t whole painted in

32:05

the middle of is. no front door has been

32:07

cut out on all but one side so it

32:09

can swing open and shut when you enter. Really.

32:12

Is. It's functionally locked. Negative

32:14

Mckenna that getting. Poking.

32:16

Your head in through the door a

32:19

d Various toys, books, stuffed animals predominantly

32:21

body stuff. The animal. Upheld up

32:23

in the corners. The. Back wall

32:25

of the castle has a bunch of

32:27

trees and houses drawn and Fran our

32:29

the sun wearing sunglasses above it. There's

32:32

an old unwrapped lollipop stuck in the

32:34

carpet in the middle of. The

32:37

we take the lollipops it feels like recent I go. I

32:39

thought. Sure! Ah, curse you

32:41

put us pullovers trying to pry

32:44

get up off of the carpet

32:46

are run with a whole bunch

32:48

of parent or good ah that

32:50

must know of lemon. That's.

32:53

Not as bad as the other details. Well.

32:58

There's only a couple things to look at

33:00

now and finally making progress. Not Do it.

33:02

So. We should. You can. we

33:04

should look at the sink sort of

33:06

areas. you get to the tables and

33:08

to. Other cats and Dogs is a. Large.

33:11

Utility thing with soap and paper towel dispenser announced

33:13

on the wall behind it. In. The sink.

33:15

there are few wet paint brushes that of include

33:18

recently. And. Us. Okay

33:20

and any can we open the cupboards of

33:22

this either below or above as earthy interesting

33:25

yes are not too much interesting and them

33:27

other well stocked with paper plates and cups

33:29

and paper towels. Or there's a painting

33:31

supplies and some empty storage bins. Ah,

33:33

Oh and there was. There is a sealed

33:36

tupperware labeled pet food. Filled. with

33:38

a delicious mix of season brain. Sealed.

33:42

Open about. Said. Which is. Ah

33:44

yes! Is. It. right?

33:47

About now. Ah

33:49

now you're bell ring out.

33:52

The. lies though it out clamoring

33:54

of kids playing outside are slowly

33:56

or fade as the kids all

33:59

file in the assembly room across

34:02

the way from outside the window. Quickly, I

34:04

don't know if they take their backpacks to the next

34:06

class. Let's go through the backpacks. Let's go through all

34:08

the backpacks. You can get into

34:10

the backpacks. They all unzip. They all

34:13

have different pencil cases and Trapper Keepers

34:15

and little things like that. Nothing immediately

34:17

jumping out at you as very useful.

34:20

Also, looking out the window, the kids are not heading

34:22

this direction. They're all headed into the assembly room. I

34:25

was also going to say, looking out the window, now that there

34:27

are no kids, has the absence of

34:29

children exposed any puzzles on the ground?

34:32

Negative on that. Okay, wonderful. Do

34:35

the backpacks have kids' names on

34:37

them or anything? They do,

34:39

but it's not important.

34:41

Yeah, we're not going to know anything about them.

34:44

We should have asked about this with the lunch boxes

34:46

as well. I assume that everything that a child has

34:48

ever owned has to have their name on it. I

34:51

also assume that, yes. Yeah, cool. All

34:53

right. And then I believe it's just the desks itself.

34:56

No, and the supply closet door, which I think we have

34:58

a key to. We didn't look at that either. Can we

35:00

have a look at the supply closet door? Oh, I'm assuming

35:02

the desk. The supply closet door. Wait, good point. I'm

35:05

assuming the desks aren't that interesting, but let's check

35:07

the desks. It's just a flat table. No

35:09

storage underneath or anything like that. Great, great, great, great,

35:12

great. To the supply closet. The

35:15

supply closet door is locked. The door handle has

35:17

a keyhole. We

35:19

have a key. The key you

35:21

found in the desk drawer fits in the keyhole and unlocks

35:23

the door. Pulling the door

35:25

open, you are greeted by a tall

35:28

rolling cart with a huge CRT television.

35:30

It has a built-in DVD player and is

35:32

held firmly in place with ratchet straps. Behind

35:36

the rolling cart, you see a set

35:38

of shelves with some basic cleaning supplies

35:40

along with two locked boxes. One

35:43

of the boxes is labeled hazardous spill

35:46

emergency kit and is

35:48

secured shut with a four-letter combo lock.

35:51

The other locked box... Wait,

35:53

hold on. This is just a shoe

35:55

box that has been painted. It looks somewhat like the

35:57

other box. It's labeled loss

35:59

of... Like Wonder Emergency kit.

36:02

That of a combo lock and has a large t

36:04

whole painted on the front of it. I

36:07

each box has a note hit

36:09

on the shelf next to it's.

36:11

An Allison go now and said

36:14

oh okay we have finally found

36:16

some people among can see this

36:18

link and the show notes. Ah

36:20

but I will try and described

36:22

the not be found by these

36:24

boxes. It is labeled spill kit

36:26

and it has four boxes with

36:29

letters around them. This is a.

36:32

Look like a situation similar to what we

36:34

saw on the whiteboard. Yes, it is and

36:37

unafraid. What I don't understand is

36:39

serviceable. Looks like when it's left and right,

36:41

none of these are labeled plus minus, so

36:43

I would imagine it's inherent in the listeners.

36:45

and the rightness of that left his plus

36:47

and rises myself. And that's what we thought

36:49

of not. We also have

36:51

this of the to step formulas

36:53

because some of these have multiple

36:55

letters on the ad. For.

36:58

To simple his to the innermost

37:00

letters separate from the outermost. So

37:03

I guess we do all the in his and all the houses. And

37:07

for one of these there is a case in

37:09

which there is that crossed out of simple. Yeah,

37:11

so let's try and I'll do

37:13

one. By one the zebra to follow the rules and do

37:16

this the first one looks the simplest. Such as got

37:18

a letter above analytical. Act. Yep and

37:20

I know I already know what the

37:22

answer The phone it's looking at it's

37:24

I don't remember what the light and

37:26

so this is a square with an

37:28

eye on top and V below and

37:30

out below mean era. Flippant? Yeah, Minnesota

37:33

Be becomes like and A without the

37:35

mill Yes and the on. I don't

37:37

flip far as on did rotate ninety

37:39

degrees and so it becomes the line

37:41

through an angle Sydney I'd like. Letter

37:43

is right. That seems a leave

37:45

of all for the second letter. it

37:48

is a box we have an eye

37:50

and and he on the list and

37:52

we haven't l on the right side

37:54

the i as alpha we treat a

37:56

separate let's ignore the i for a

37:59

second Let's do inners and outers.

38:01

So the inners are an E on the

38:04

left and an L on the right. L

38:06

is a subtractor. Which means the E, when

38:08

you subtract the L shape, is like the

38:10

two lines of an F without the stem.

38:12

Yeah, it's a bit of an equal sign. Which

38:14

is great. Because then the I we do next.

38:17

And it adds and turns it into an F.

38:19

Okay, I like that. It's an A F. It

38:21

seems functional so far. So far functional. It can

38:23

only bode well for us. So

38:25

next. The third one looks complicated. Third one

38:28

looks wild. It is a box. To

38:30

the left is I and R. To

38:33

the right is P and O.

38:36

And to the bottom is a crossed

38:39

out O, a null symbol, and

38:41

a Q. How the

38:43

Q is going to help, I have no idea, but we'll figure

38:45

that out. Yeah, goodness. Let's start with the

38:47

inners. Okay. R to the left, P to

38:49

the right. Alright. R minus the P, that's just going

38:51

to be that flash. Yeah, just like the bottom of a K. Right,

38:54

so we start with just like a little

38:56

tiny backslash. That's fine.

38:58

Next. Oh boy. It is an I on

39:00

the left. It

39:03

is an O on the right. Oh,

39:06

that's so good. And then upside down Q.

39:09

Oh my god. Upside down Q

39:12

minus an O is just the

39:14

top right slash. Yeah. Which makes the top

39:16

right of a K mixed with the I makes

39:18

the bloody letter of the K. It's a K.

39:20

That's so good. What a puzzle.

39:24

I hope that made sense for everybody. You

39:26

flip the Q, you take out the O

39:28

and it's just the forward

39:32

slash part of

39:34

a K. So the top

39:36

kind of section of a K. And then with the I on

39:38

the left, which we also add in as an outer letter, it

39:41

makes a full capital letter K. It's very cool.

39:44

Wild. The next one, the final one is a-

39:47

NZ on the left and EH on the right.

39:49

So we start with a Z minus an E.

39:52

Looks like it's just a giant forward

39:55

slash. That's what I'm saying. Because The

39:57

only overlap of E and Z is the top and- I'm

40:00

a man can hit the dumb bottom of this as

40:02

we start with weeks last thing silent. Now we have

40:04

done the to analysts. Are now. Is

40:06

that an minus eight? Which

40:08

in my eye means that the N and

40:11

the Eight only said verticals. So we have

40:13

a big. Bucks. Less know, we end

40:15

up with an axe. That

40:17

felt. Like I was so much fun as I

40:19

like it did stuff. Or we have full

40:21

letter they are A and S and

40:23

K and X and we put those

40:25

into. The spill kit. Code.

40:28

Very. Well dug, A

40:31

Very light or a Fg X. Open

40:34

to locked. Inside the

40:36

box you find some alcoholic a

40:38

canister of absorb it's granules for

40:41

a sprinkling on vomit. Saw.

40:43

A rubber gloves, a canister of

40:45

gum removal freezing spray and some

40:47

sort of metal chisels. paper to

40:49

Ny said we. Have been looking under

40:51

the desks. Ruth. Wilson to the

40:54

desks, Looking. Into this there

40:56

is a deal with pieces pieces of

40:58

gum. You're there are but. Only.

41:00

One or so here and there's nothing that could be concealed.

41:03

Just. Students standard the level

41:05

of hygiene. This is an hour

41:07

job. So. It looks to me

41:09

like. We've. Looked at everything that. I.

41:12

Think so and exciting and a major impasse

41:14

is popping discipline and I think that would

41:16

move on. Their. Enough

41:19

damage you said they were. There was scissors in the

41:21

art supplies. Can we just throws his. Is that it?

41:23

I was gonna use rubber bands and up

41:25

pushpin' Or. Rather badly of

41:27

they're all safety scissors. Ah, so it's

41:29

Affiliates you're You're not going to be

41:32

lucky enough to get the right a

41:34

go of say oh there was a

41:36

pencil sharpener on his desk when we

41:39

sharpened pencils into like. Arrows.

41:41

And then use the rather ban to fire them from our

41:43

fingers at the balloon. You're. Worried

41:45

about the cosmetic affect you might

41:47

have on the surrounding wall and

41:50

ceiling? By. themselves your soul

41:52

and remake. and when we're gonna.

41:54

Come up with so many we had ideas the are

41:56

going to have to keep coming up with. Zero reason

41:58

is that it's not. Maria

42:01

are as well if it's not

42:03

push pins and safety scissors. What?

42:05

Else is pointy enough and has enough

42:07

reach to get to a balloon. Seats.

42:10

Will just turn the thermostat way

42:12

off. Eventually it'll work. Where.

42:14

We perhaps need something that we can actually like.

42:16

Hoist up and hit with robin. Throw. There

42:19

are some things left to discover. Have

42:22

already forgotten the child see his box.

42:26

Are. You gonna want ads? It's just way to read certain. It.

42:28

You can refer the keyhole pieces on the

42:31

front of a boss seems identical to the

42:33

keel painted on the door of the cardboard

42:35

box. How nice. It is purely cosmetic though

42:37

as could easily list opened the top of

42:39

the box but there are to the items

42:42

inside but a note has been painted inside

42:44

the bottom of the box. That. Reads

42:46

only unlocked by the Super Ultra

42:48

Magic T of Secrets. And

42:51

are beyond that. We got a T V. It

42:53

is a deal that don't know data. What's it?

42:56

Is a Dvd? I? Yes, of

42:58

course. To deter others, one visible power

43:00

outlet at the front of the roof with a

43:02

whiteboard. The. Power cable on the Tv is

43:04

pretty short so urology right opposed to it and

43:06

will kneel down to plug it in. You see

43:08

a problem. Someone. Has smashed chewing gum

43:10

over both have the power ports of the outlet.

43:13

Nice. We have the skills to remove that

43:15

can be free to with a free spray and

43:17

scrape it was I hold on I'll mom, I

43:20

will never hold on. I leave the

43:22

classroom or such around the back

43:24

of the classroom. Thought.

43:26

Like the power box because I

43:28

am not scraping around a power

43:31

outlet. Until. I time the electricity on.

43:33

Scraping Oh. For.

43:36

You go in search for citizens. Will come

43:38

back to the room to find a dead maple

43:40

and a dead us. Yeah let's go. Yeah.

43:42

I don't know where the fuse box tends

43:44

to be. Earl Ray? Not a clue. and

43:46

in a classroom nadal I give. it's one

43:48

of the kids. I think you're gonna have

43:51

to risk it for own responsibility. Work is

43:53

sort of children's to do for the children.

43:55

Yeah, I'd say that. If. They walked in and

43:57

they see as handset eating i human body I

43:59

don't know. What else can I do to that development?

44:01

I spray, I scrape. The

44:03

aerosol can shoots out a super freezing blast of air.

44:06

You stop after a few seconds as you start to

44:08

see some frost forming on the coon. Using

44:10

the metal scraper, you pry the gum out

44:12

of the socket. It pops out in one

44:15

gross outlet-frogged piece and falls to the floor.

44:17

With that, the outlet is clear for use.

44:20

Excellent. And now back to

44:22

our original quest. You plug

44:24

in the TV and press the power button. The

44:26

old clunker takes a good 30 seconds to warm

44:29

up as the screen fades to life. It

44:31

seems to be auto-playing an episode

44:33

of the popular kids' science show,

44:35

Steven the Science Man. Steven

44:38

the Science Man. Steven

44:41

the Science Man. Hey,

44:44

hey, hey, hey, hey, hey,

44:46

hey, hey. Science,

44:49

you good. Hee hee. Steven

44:52

the Science Man. On

44:57

the screen, a man in a lab coat talks to the

44:59

camera as he walks through a zany science lab with crazy

45:01

stuff happening all around him in the background. It

45:04

sounds like this. Everything is

45:06

made of chemicals. When

45:11

some chemicals get together, they

45:13

can react. Chemical

45:17

reactions are happening around us all the time. When you see

45:19

metal rust, when your

45:22

stomach gurgles, even dissolving a

45:24

body, chemical

45:27

reactions can do almost anything. Now

45:29

here's a question. What's

45:31

the key to popping this

45:33

balloon without touching it? Please

45:36

tell me, Steven. If

45:38

you said it was magic, you would be

45:40

wrong. It's

45:43

chemical reactions, you stupid little idiot. You could try this

45:45

one yourself. Fizzles fruit, like

45:48

lemons and oranges, contain a chemical in their

45:50

field called a chemical. This

45:53

chemical is a natural solvent. Squeezing

45:57

the peel Releases the chemicals into the

45:59

air. Nobody. Even a little

46:01

bit kids on the balloon boy,

46:04

ammo. Chemical. Reactions.

46:08

Ah dvd start sniffing at this point I'm

46:10

and restart proceed over as if you wanna

46:12

hear it again it a point use let

46:14

me know and I'll play. We.

46:17

Have a lemon lollipop. Ah,

46:20

How. Do we get a lemon lollipop to spray

46:23

women in Syria? was. Wondering what sort of

46:25

freak would have to settle lemon for their lunch.

46:27

Or throw the lollipop. It does

46:29

the balloon a It bounces right

46:31

off the balloon I have as

46:33

you catch it. really cool. Got

46:35

too much power and it's a

46:37

they're going to have some scraping

46:39

complaints. Greater. Good you have

46:41

any other lemons around in the kids

46:43

lunchboxes? them of lemons. Well defined thought,

46:46

but unfortunately. Our

46:48

know you hear a loud bell

46:50

ring for other room. The. Door

46:52

to the class rips open. Expensive jump since.

46:55

He. Looks back over his shoulder as you hear

46:57

a clamor of kids growing louder. Love. Spencer

47:00

runs over the cage quickly, covers up a yeah,

47:02

but the sheath just as a stream of kids

47:04

floods into the room, They. Pile up

47:06

around the cubbies near the door. scrambling the grab a less

47:08

by. Spencer. Lox eyes with you.

47:10

put the watch over. So how's it

47:13

going with that thing that I

47:15

asked you about? how the letters.

47:17

Developments. Resurrected Eleven. Okay,

47:21

well. I

47:23

don't have any loves them. Under school

47:25

48:51

sweet chocolate I thought I lost you forever the

48:54

rest of the kids have shuffled

48:56

off with their lunches you're left alone once again

48:59

holding an orange great I

49:02

squeeze it right into

49:04

Danny's eyes yeah I

49:08

meant to describe something earlier but in the

49:10

actual video they take a

49:12

bit of orange peel and squeeze a little

49:14

bit and the balloon is able to pop

49:17

from like five feet away I squeeze I

49:20

take a bit of orange peel can I just take a bit of

49:22

our field I need some you can tell you

49:24

a little bit of more yeah the paint scraper I don't want

49:26

to get London whatever I want yeah

49:28

and I squeeze it at the balloon with

49:31

a squeeze in the shake you get a good

49:33

spritz of chemicals wafting up to the balloon fire

49:37

the balloon pop and you hear a

49:39

frightened squeak echo out of the vent then

49:41

you see meatball pop out of the gap of

49:44

the vet what is he she

49:46

immediately meatball runs south along the

49:48

top of the cabinet she's a

49:50

blur of brown fur as

49:52

she gets to the edge of the cabinets and leap she

49:55

soars through the air over the

49:58

cardboard box castle You

50:01

swear you hear her lasting. It's as

50:03

she falls into the top of the

50:06

castle and disappears with it. Okay, that's

50:08

a second favorite spot I suppose. Or

50:11

it's a now we need to pull her out

50:13

with a favorite treat. Yes, those a note about

50:15

this. Yeah, I believe that Said

50:17

Say something Her: don't tell anyone

50:20

how you forget allows. Ah

50:22

yes there was a little boat

50:25

of Rps. It's best not to

50:27

mention how you cheap step two

50:29

steps to being findings find. Favorite.

50:32

Treats changes constantly, Changes

50:36

constantly. So. How

50:38

do we know it's current? Four Hundred

50:40

and Maples Current favorite treat. Can

50:42

we again? If we took our head

50:45

around the castle and things, can we

50:47

locate Meatball? Like if

50:49

I were to offer meatball. Well, food behind

50:51

the a pile of stuffed animal inside

50:54

Harper Castle, You see they've been sort

50:56

of shuffled to the side and there

50:58

is a little mousehole furrowed through the

51:00

back, the baja, and the wall behind

51:03

it. Arrives.

51:06

South Almost right with my day earlier.

51:08

Said look at stuff animals until

51:10

mother moved us. I

51:13

still feel that we discuss a leave offerings and

51:15

a mouthful. Of we

51:17

put all that different foods that we found

51:19

that for instance, start off with the lollipop.

51:21

It was only the liberals. The yep

51:24

we just have put a lollipop in front

51:26

of this whole the any reaction. At all.

51:28

No reaction of that doesn't seem

51:30

to be enjoyed. The lemon lollipop.

51:33

That's cool. That's cool. For Supported Pinochet

51:35

news was a health foods going around.

51:38

Here I assume that like most of

51:40

the lunchbox food has been with the

51:42

way. Correct. That's

51:44

not something at least those a mention.

51:46

Of. The kid who didn't have a lunch book that like he

51:49

was allowed to have. Food. Until

51:51

he got. No desire until he found his.

51:53

London. Area until he found his yeah

51:55

who says to be laid lunchbox. Sesame.

51:58

lane oh i see Sorry,

52:00

I thought it was a

52:02

lunchbox that was inlaid with

52:04

sesame seeds. I was very

52:07

confused. You never

52:09

know. We haven't used the Children's Tears

52:11

box, we haven't used the pet food. We

52:13

did use the... Which was the

52:15

Children's Tears box? The... Or

52:18

the Wonderlust. The... How

52:21

do you create a childish sense of wonder? Exactly. And

52:24

the key is the Super Social Magic key.

52:26

Yeah. Did we just create our own Super

52:28

Social Magic key to create a sense

52:30

of childish wonder? For what? Well, there was actually...

52:32

There was a note next to that box as well. Oh,

52:35

there was? I thought that was the one that had... I

52:37

don't know if you can find that. I snuffed in two links at once. What?

52:39

Oh, I didn't see the second link. I

52:42

was going to note this whole time. Danny, would you like to

52:45

read this out for people who aren't opening... Aren't able

52:47

to see it at home? Oh, okay.

52:49

Yeah, this works perfectly. It

52:51

says Childlike Wonder key. Exactly.

52:55

I heard it. Okay,

52:57

if I read them out loud... How

52:59

much will they... It sounds like I'm already saying

53:01

something. Who knows? But I'm going to guess not.

53:03

Because the first one, Happy Cow. Second

53:05

one, possible

53:08

nuclear explosion. Third one's

53:10

a pretty content chicken. And

53:13

then some bubbles. So

53:16

it's Cow Fall Out

53:18

Chicken Bubbles. Oh. You

53:20

got something out of chicken bubbles? I

53:22

did notice... Cow Balm? Is

53:25

that a video that we were watching? Sorry, the DVD that

53:27

we were watching. Oh. There was

53:29

a chicken noise. Oh no. Can

53:31

we listen to the DVD again?

53:33

Certainly. Everything is made of chemicals.

53:40

When some chemicals get together,

53:42

they can... Can...

53:45

React. Chemical

53:47

reactions are happening around us all

53:49

the time. When you

53:51

see metal rust, or when your stomach

53:53

gurgles... Even dissolving a body.

53:56

Chemical reactions can do almost

53:58

anything. Now here's

54:00

a question. What's the

54:03

key to popping this balloon without

54:05

touching it? Well, if

54:07

you said it was magic, you would be...

54:10

wrong. It's

54:12

chemical reactions, you stupid little idiot!

54:15

You could try this one yourself.

54:18

Fizzles fruit, like lemons and oranges,

54:20

contain a chemical in their peel

54:22

called limonene. This chemical is a

54:24

natural solvent. We solved your puzzle already,

54:27

Steven, get out of here. And

54:29

if even a little bit gets on the

54:31

balloon, blammo! Chemical

54:34

reactions! So,

54:37

the words I got at first

54:39

was almost can be key. And

54:42

then I went, maybe it was the anything part of

54:44

almost anything. I got anything can be

54:46

key. Anything can be key. Alright,

54:49

that seems pretty chill. Can we go up to the box and

54:52

use the lollipop as

54:55

the key to open the box, imagining

54:57

it as a beautiful ornate key using

55:00

our sense of childlike wonder? Let

55:02

me ask you a question. Do

55:05

you believe it? Of course I do. I

55:07

leave if I don't believe in anything. I

55:09

believe in everything. I shouldn't be

55:12

part of this. You

55:14

hold the lollipop in your hand. What, sorry, no I don't.

55:16

No, well, what are you talking about? I don't have a

55:18

lollipop. I've got a

55:20

key. A magical key. To

55:23

your surprise, when you go to

55:25

press it into the painted keyhole, it actually

55:27

passes straight through. Again, this doesn't surprise me

55:29

at all. It's a key going into a

55:32

keyhole. This is very normal. You're

55:34

not sure when it happened, but you are not

55:36

holding the lollipop at all in your hand.

55:38

I'm holding a key. You are holding the

55:40

super ultra magic key of secrets. The

55:43

lights in the room go dark, but

55:45

light sparkles out from the ornate crystal

55:47

key, painting the room in a rainbow

55:49

of caustic beads of light. Ooh,

55:52

now that I use my magical key to open

55:54

the magical box, is there anything inside, or has

55:56

it just unlocked my child's sense of wonder? like

56:00

sense of wonder. Can I use said

56:02

magic key on the Magic

56:04

Castle door? You go to press the

56:07

super ultra magic key of secrets against the keyhole

56:09

painted on the door and just like before it

56:11

passes right through. You pull

56:13

the key back out and suddenly you see a

56:15

bright light peeking around the edges of the door.

56:19

Stepping through the door you find yourself

56:21

standing outside on a warm sunny day

56:23

in a quaint village town square. What's

56:26

happening? To

56:28

the west you see some farm land being

56:30

tended to by some farmer bunny rabbit. They

56:33

wear overalls and they walk upright onto a... To

56:36

the north is a raised drawbridge

56:39

to a large castle. To

56:41

the east there's what looks to be a

56:43

New York City block. Right

56:46

behind you to the south is a red brick

56:48

schoolhouse. The center of

56:50

the town square has a large crater

56:52

that seems to just be there and

56:55

it's smells of lemon. And

56:57

as you look up the sun pulls its sunglasses

56:59

down a bit, wings at you and slides them

57:01

back up. I'm glad that

57:04

you're the one doing this because this terrifies me. Okay

57:07

I am in the

57:09

world of whimsy. Let's go and talk

57:12

to the rabbit farmers. You go

57:14

over to the bunny farmers. They are

57:16

tending to rows and rows of grey

57:18

fuzzy crops. Grey fuzzy

57:21

crops? That's the grass. The

57:23

grass is the wheat fields. Grey

57:25

carpet fields. Gotcha. I

57:27

say, hail it well met young bunnies. They

57:30

say, oh hey, how's it

57:33

going? Good. You

57:36

haven't seen meatball around here have you? Oh

57:39

you mean pre-meatball? Yeah, she just got back from

57:41

a big vacation I guess. Normally

57:43

that castle since dormant but now it's full staff over

57:46

there. Wonderful. Has

57:48

she asked you for anything specific for

57:50

her feast? No

57:53

should I have? Should I have? I'm so upset

57:55

the queen. Do you know something? Oh I'm so

57:57

sorry. You already have.

58:00

You shall be banished. Oh my god leave these

58:02

lands now Okay

58:05

Well, how about we just redouble our efforts? We

58:08

can grow a lot more carpet the crops

58:10

will have a much higher yield

58:12

this season. I promise no It's

58:15

too late. It's too late You

58:17

can't be so lazy with the Queen is

58:19

away and then try it grow double time

58:22

when she's back you failed the

58:25

bunny farmer is starting to doubt the Validity

58:28

of Where's

58:30

his sense of childlike wonder I

58:32

leave Okay,

58:36

bunny to grow in the carpet great

58:39

we just gotta we gotta just keep going there's no time for

58:41

decisions next Where do we go next?

58:43

I don't know my brains broken. I don't

58:45

deal with childlike wonder very well. They were going to

58:47

the school Didn't

58:50

we come from the school? Yeah, we're going or is that where

58:52

we came from Yes, the red

58:54

brick schoolhouse has that makes you have enormous

58:56

flat grand drawing The front door is open

58:58

and you can see through it into the

59:00

real world classroom very good point Let's go

59:02

to the city over at the New York

59:04

City block You see some iconic characters from

59:06

your childhood going about their day You see

59:08

Kurt and Bernie and Roscoe the grump

59:11

and big chicken you get the idea Don't

59:16

pay you any attention as they bustle around

59:18

okay. I think quiet lunchbox. Yeah

59:20

about a lunchbox Can I say

59:23

hello everybody where's the lunchbox? Lunchbox

59:26

is here which of these buildings is a

59:28

lunchbox with windows painted on it. There's

59:30

a trash can next to you and Green

59:34

fuzzy dude pops out of it goes

59:36

yo hey I'm sleeping

59:38

here I

59:43

say hey man go any lunch boxes

59:47

No, what do I look like like I'm a lunchbox

59:49

or something Maybe it means there's a lunchbox

59:51

in the real world version of this castle. Maybe

59:53

it does Danny

59:55

can you stick your head into the real world version of

59:57

this car? I have not come into the fake world

1:00:00

So yeah, so you're living in a

1:00:02

fake world in the world of pragmatism

1:00:04

and and fear Can you have a

1:00:06

look at where's the is there a

1:00:08

lunchbox like built into the walls of this? Yeah,

1:00:10

can I fumble around further seeing if I can

1:00:12

find a hidden? Sesame Lane

1:00:15

lunchbox. So This

1:00:18

has never happened before So

1:00:21

I'm gonna have to go ahead and say that bill

1:00:24

in the land of whimsy you're just sort

1:00:26

of stood in the doorway Blocking

1:00:28

anyone else's entry sort of just motion.

1:00:30

Okay, that's the form of being transported

1:00:32

to the land is what they're taking Alright

1:00:35

lovely. We'll check in a second. Okay, um this

1:00:38

lemon crater Oh, yeah,

1:00:40

I forgot about this. I couldn't draw that so I

1:00:42

forgot about it. There's anything noteworthy Could I

1:00:44

put my lemon? Can I put the key

1:00:46

and transform it back into a lollipop and

1:00:48

stick it in here? Yeah, you

1:00:51

take the key in your hand you

1:00:53

think about it being a big lemon

1:00:55

lollipop And it is a

1:00:57

turns into a huge marble sculpture of

1:00:59

a lollipop What

1:01:03

and it sets perfectly in place and

1:01:05

yeah, that's that's okay Nothing

1:01:08

good. Nothing good comes out of it other than

1:01:10

the knowledge of you can carry

1:01:12

around huge things. Good your pocket Can

1:01:15

I head to the castle? Oh, what

1:01:17

about the bridge? We haven't talked about the drawbridge. There was a

1:01:22

Yeah As

1:01:24

you approach the castle you're addressed by a

1:01:26

teddy bear dressed as a royal squire Hold

1:01:29

there, please We'll have no entry

1:01:31

to the castle at this time unless you

1:01:34

are royalty or in the company of royalty

1:01:37

I see. Okay, so we need to bring a

1:01:39

rolling makes sense. All right, bye You're

1:01:42

welcome to return with the support of a royal

1:01:45

or noble personage. I will You

1:01:48

say personage Hand-stirage? Well,

1:01:51

she's already in there. Yeah, I know. I'm just wondering

1:01:53

like how is there anything specific

1:01:55

we need to Bring or

1:01:57

appear as We'll figure it out

1:02:00

See you later, I tell you, well, I leave the

1:02:02

world of whimsy and I snap back to reality. Oops,

1:02:04

that goes gravity. Yes. Yeah, you're

1:02:06

able to do so easily. Okay.

1:02:10

Can we pragmatically stick our head back in and see

1:02:12

if there's a lunchbox in the, in the kind

1:02:14

of- Just stop believing. Well-

1:02:16

I'm afraid you cannot stop believing.

1:02:19

Okay. Alright, sweet. So

1:02:22

that's Sesame Lane. And

1:02:24

we need a king or a queen. Cool.

1:02:27

Well, no worries. Or a jack. I

1:02:30

mean, we've got all the art supplies we could want.

1:02:33

Not only that, we have a lot of dress ups. So

1:02:36

just make a little princess? Is there anything

1:02:38

that we can do to fashion ourselves a

1:02:40

royal looking costume? Yeah, can I make myself

1:02:42

a crown? All the fixings

1:02:44

are here. If you wanted to make a

1:02:46

nice little construction paper crown. Yeah, I'll

1:02:48

make a little crown. Alright. Yeah, you

1:02:51

get pasting away, cutting away at some

1:02:53

construction paper and you fashion yourself a

1:02:55

very nice looking paper crown. Of

1:02:57

all of the art costumes

1:02:59

in the costume sort of area, is

1:03:01

there any that would fit us and

1:03:04

looks elegant? None

1:03:06

that would fit you. There's maybe like a

1:03:09

cape for a superhero. You might be able to

1:03:11

get that around your neck. Oh,

1:03:14

you know, we could do it. We could put it all on

1:03:16

one of the stuffed animals and bring it in as a

1:03:18

king. That probably would work better. That

1:03:21

makes sense. Could I- Could I- Could

1:03:23

I- Could I- Could I- Could I- Could I-

1:03:25

Could I- Could I- Could

1:03:27

I put it around, make a little star of asteroth and put it around

1:03:29

its neck. Give it a-

1:03:31

give it a big cape and a soccer ball and

1:03:34

take it in with me? Yes, you can. Lovely.

1:03:37

I hope everybody's getting my bednows and boots. I understand. I

1:03:41

return to the world of whimsy with

1:03:44

the Duke of

1:03:47

Leon. The

1:03:49

Duke of Leon. Yeah, as

1:03:52

you step out into the bright,

1:03:54

warm, sunny day, you look

1:03:56

beside you and striding there,

1:03:58

looking elegant. as always

1:04:01

on two feet is this

1:04:03

incredible line with this incredible

1:04:05

robe and crown monocle

1:04:07

of course. He

1:04:09

turns to you and he's like so where I guess

1:04:12

where are we off to now? We're

1:04:14

off to the castle. All right

1:04:16

you stroll right on up to the teddy bear

1:04:18

squire. He takes one look at

1:04:21

King Leon. Do you give Leon? He

1:04:26

says, ah oh yes right this way my

1:04:28

esteemed guest. Squire Teddy gestures

1:04:30

behind him. Drawbridge quickly descends.

1:04:33

I'm glad there's no political animosity between the

1:04:35

carnivores and herbivores. True. What

1:04:38

is this utopia? Drawbridge

1:04:40

slams down and has the look of painted cardboard

1:04:43

but the ground rumbles as the drawbridge slams down

1:04:45

in front of me. Squire Teddy

1:04:47

beckons, allow me to lead the way. The

1:04:50

castle looms overhead as Squire Teddy leads you

1:04:52

to the throne room. The

1:04:54

stone walls and floors are shaded with gray black

1:04:56

crayon with the odd massive sticker or playing card

1:04:58

stuck to the wall here. Squire

1:05:00

Teddy gives a deep bow as he pulls open

1:05:03

a large wooden door and lets you pass through.

1:05:06

You enter the throne room from the south.

1:05:08

The room is well lit with a

1:05:11

row of windows high up along the west wall.

1:05:13

Along the east and west walls stand

1:05:15

rows of four light-sized green

1:05:17

army men guards stoically observing

1:05:20

your action. The

1:05:22

entirety of the east wall seems

1:05:24

to have been wallpapered floor to

1:05:26

ceiling with one massive page of

1:05:29

a vocabulary workbook. You

1:05:31

stand on a long red carpet that

1:05:33

extends across the room to the north

1:05:35

ending at an enormous ornate throne with

1:05:38

a towering cute fuzzy glass pet sitting

1:05:40

upon it. Green meatball

1:05:42

looks to be about three meters tall wearing

1:05:45

a royal red cape with a fluffy white fringe

1:05:47

around her neck. She holds the gold of a

1:05:54

jeweled scepter in her right claw. She sports

1:05:57

a matching magnificent crown on her head. She

1:05:59

doesn't any attention at the moment,

1:06:01

yawning as she lazily examines the fingernails on

1:06:03

her left paw. Okay,

1:06:06

what do we look at? Do we want to have a

1:06:08

quick glance? We're too many layers deep. Alright,

1:06:12

it feels like, because once you find out the food, we just leave a triangle.

1:06:15

So this is the don't tell people how you figured

1:06:17

out the food statement. That's what I

1:06:19

assumed. I'm not telling anyone about this. What

1:06:21

is on the vocab wall? Up

1:06:24

near the ceiling, the page is titled,

1:06:26

Week 1 Vocab List. Down

1:06:28

on the wall are some rows of words. The

1:06:31

first row reads, So

1:06:33

what put 3, and

1:06:36

that's so as an S-O. I'll also

1:06:38

paste this in the chat when we're done here. The

1:06:41

second row reads, Blurbs beliefs.

1:06:44

And the final row beneath that reads, Aunt

1:06:48

Doctor We. That's

1:06:50

aunt as in aunt your relative. But

1:06:53

I will paste all of

1:06:56

that. So

1:06:58

what put 3, Blurbs beliefs,

1:07:01

Aunt Doctor We. Curious.

1:07:05

Alright, anything automatic. I'm not seeing

1:07:07

first letters. First letters is swooped. Doesn't

1:07:09

make any sense. I'm not

1:07:11

seeing homophones, necessarily.

1:07:14

So what could be what, what could be nothing. It

1:07:17

loses it pretty quickly. They

1:07:20

are not in alphabetical order. Sorry,

1:07:22

this was from a vocabulary book. Is it like

1:07:24

typed text from a book? Or is it a

1:07:26

book that someone is writing? It is typed text. That's

1:07:29

correct. Cool. So it's not that

1:07:32

a child has misspelled things horribly and

1:07:34

remarkably coincidentally to spell up. Oh,

1:07:36

shit, correct. Good, good. I don't

1:07:38

know what to do about it. Why don't we just

1:07:41

nudge the Duke of Leon to approach the

1:07:43

Queen? Yeah, I turned to the Duke and I said, hey, can

attorneys that it's as wanted. dead or alive

1:13:49

Reward: Ten dollars. A. Head

1:13:51

in the town square. the farmer

1:13:53

bunnies to form the block, chain,

1:13:55

shovels and pitchforks. One. Of them

1:13:57

holds up the wanted poster, looks at the crucifix

1:13:59

figure, face and it looks at you

1:14:01

and says, yep, that's them all right.

1:14:05

What do you do? I say,

1:14:08

well, bunnies, you may have

1:14:10

carpet fibers as high as

1:14:12

an elephant's eye, but I have

1:14:16

an elephant and I turn it into

1:14:18

a term, I trampoline into an elephant

1:14:20

and I crashed in the barricade. You've,

1:14:24

yes. So you turn it into an elephant. Do

1:14:26

you think more of like you're throwing the elephant

1:14:28

as a projectile or you're like riding it as

1:14:30

a riding it as a weapon. I

1:14:32

assume that we also got like a

1:14:35

surfboard or skateboard or something and I

1:14:37

held on to a tail as it

1:14:39

rampaged forward. Oh, and then we could fly

1:14:41

that under its legs. Yeah, you bull

1:14:44

through these farmer bunnies who scatter

1:14:46

very frantically. I'm just trying to

1:14:48

think of what artwork we can put on merch

1:14:51

next. And

1:14:57

as you pass through, the residents of

1:14:59

Sesame Lane have all gathered at the

1:15:01

edge of the street and Roscoe the

1:15:03

Grouch has popped his head out of

1:15:05

the can. It says, whoa, they

1:15:07

got the Superol Turkey. Take us

1:15:09

with you. Yeah,

1:15:12

sure. Come on. I don't mind. Yeah.

1:15:14

Hop on the skateboard as it increases

1:15:16

in size. So yes, as you

1:15:19

run over you swing

1:15:21

out wide, you grab the hand

1:15:23

of Oscar the Grouch and as you

1:15:25

pull him, the entirety of the whole

1:15:27

city block just like lifts up and

1:15:29

is able to easily carry with you

1:15:31

like a big sort of parade float.

1:15:34

The image is getting harder and harder

1:15:36

to draw. But all right. And as

1:15:38

you pass back through the cardboard

1:15:41

door back into the real world,

1:15:43

you find yourself holding a gross

1:15:45

sticky lemon lollipop and a

1:15:47

Sesame Lane lunchbox. Wonderful.

1:15:50

Okay, we have it. What's in the Sesame Lane lunchbox? Is

1:15:52

it full of old pumpkin seeds? Let's open it up.

1:15:54

Oh no, they've all turned into pumpkins by now.

1:15:56

Oh no. Much to your delight.

1:15:58

We have a juice bottle. a very

1:16:01

moldy peanut butter and jelly sandwich in a

1:16:03

Ziploc bag, thank goodness, and a

1:16:05

small snack bag of pumpkin seeds. Whoo-hoo!

1:16:08

Pumpkin seeds! Oh!

1:16:12

A third bell rings out. You rip open the

1:16:14

bag of pumpkin seeds, and you hear a little

1:16:16

squeak from above you. A meatball has

1:16:18

popped her head over the top flap of the

1:16:20

cardboard castle, swatching you from above. You

1:16:22

quickly rip the sheet off the cage, open

1:16:25

the door on the side, and

1:16:27

sprinkle the seeds in a trail from the edge

1:16:30

of the counter all the way inside the cage.

1:16:32

Take a few steps away from the counter, the

1:16:34

meatball leaps into the air and makes it onto the edge of the

1:16:36

top. Nice! Behind you, Spencer

1:16:39

opens the door to the class and jumps in

1:16:41

and pulls the door shut. Please have good news!

1:16:43

He shouts as he holds the door shut as

1:16:45

the kids try to pull it open. We've got

1:16:47

very weird news! But good!

1:16:49

You turn back to the counter to

1:16:51

find meatball back in her cage, with

1:16:53

the door somehow shut, and her cheeks

1:16:55

completely stuffed with pumpkin seeds. Nice!

1:16:58

Spencer sees this over your shoulders and releases

1:17:01

the door as the kids all pour in.

1:17:04

They immediately see that the sheet is

1:17:06

off the cage and scream out, MEATBALL!

1:17:09

and run over, and with the

1:17:11

light surround their lovely pet that they had

1:17:13

missed seeing all day. Spencer,

1:17:15

the big grin, waves his hand to

1:17:17

you, hurries Lee to follow him outside

1:17:19

of the classroom. As

1:17:22

you meet outside, he tells you, Oh my gosh!

1:17:25

You guys were incredible! I don't know how I'll ever

1:17:27

repay you. You each look

1:17:29

at each other and you

1:17:31

say, Well, being back in the

1:17:33

old classroom like that really helped me feel like a

1:17:35

kid again, and it was pretty fun.

1:17:38

But also, dinner and lunch

1:17:40

for the next week would be

1:17:42

great. Fantastic! And the

1:17:44

camera slowly drifts up into the

1:17:47

sky, higher and higher, until we

1:17:49

see the sun. And

1:17:51

he pulls down his sunglasses a bit and

1:17:53

winks at us and pushes him back up

1:17:56

again. The end! The end! The

1:17:58

end! Afraid for my

1:18:00

life now, we've made a powerful enemy. You
