Ethics (Thursday, September 28, 6th period)

Vader swept into the room precisely on time, slamming the door hard enough to reverberate down the hallway. He dropped a box of cookies onto his desk.

"Today we talk about how a strict sense of right and wrong interferes in efficiency," he said, pacing the room and clearly intending to intimidate as many students as possible. "Employees who do not believe that there will be consequences for their incompetence become lazy, stupid, and easily replaceable."

Vader took the box of cookies from his desk and passed it around the room. "Each of you has a cookie," he said. "You will spend the rest of the class period using the tactics of fear, shame and guilt to get the other people in this classroom to give you their cookies." And yes, that word sounded incredibly strange coming from him. "Whoever has the most cookies at the end of the class will get to keep them."

He crossed his arms over his chest. "Are these tactics unethical? Does it matter if you get what you want?"

"But I won!" Faithful pouted. Alanna was using her bag to cover up her head but her shoulders were shaking from laughter.

"You twitched your tail in my face," Isabel pointed out. "And broke my concentration. That's like me doing this!" She held out her hand and slowly raised Faithful a few inches into the air. "Tell me that would break your concentration!"

Faithful glanced down for a second. "Nah." He smiled down at Isabel. "Mrowr! Re-match then? For the cookie? I'll even do it from here."

Isabel laughed and held out a cookie. "Forget it. It's yours."

Faithful snagged the cookie and gave everyone a very superior look. "Mwah!"

"Technically you still don't win though," she chuckled. "He said use guilt, fear or shame. You won by being cute."

"Whatever works." Said cat and owner at the same time.

"He might disagree," Isabel pointed out.

"The assignment got done." Alanna grumbled.

"And he'd probably claim the ends justify the means."
