"Good news kids!" Lorne exclaimed as the students took their seats. "With all the fun you had this weekend, I'm giving you a break from singing today. That's two weeks in a row you didn't have to sing for me so don't forget to be grateful."

"Instead you have an assignment for next week," Lorne said as he pulled out a box that he had ~~Handwavey~~ picked up from Sparky repairs and opened it. As soon as he opened it, little bots jumped out of the box and started to follow each of the students around playing different musical themes.

"The bots have been calibrated to sense your mood and play an appropriate song that suits that mood. Your assignment is to have your bot follow you around for one (or more) days and keep a log of what music it plays. Feel free to play around with your bot in class today, otherwise I'll see you next week."

"I do have some sad news to report Mary Decanter's parents have withdrawn her from school and will not be rejoining the class," Lorne said with a mournful look. "Though I don't understand why on the memo her name is listed as Marie D'Ancanto. That's it for me kittens! Mwah!"

At the news of Marie, Zuko realised that he hadn't seen her since she left for Thanksgiving. He didn't like what this might mean as he knew she wasn't looking forward to staying there.

He was so distracted by the news that it took a moment for him to realise that his bot was currently playing the Cheers tune. Not that Zuko would recognise it.

Blinking, Zuko stared at it. "Cut it out," he growled.

Lorne was humming along with the song. "It can't stop. It's not programmed to until it runs down which should be a couple of hours or so."

"You invented this, didn't you?" Zuko accused.

The bot changed tunes to 'Golden Eye'.

"Nope. Just gave the specifications to the guy down at Sparky's," Lorne explained as he leaned over to pat the bot on its head. "Aren't they great?"

"No," Zuko replied as the bot just started singing louder.

"You're right. It's fantastic! Best idea for a class I ever had," Lorne said oh-so-modestly.

"Yes, it is," Zuko agreed flatly.

The bot started singing "liar, liar pants on fire."

"Oh look! It knows you play with fire!" Lorne said gleefully.

"Seems so," Zuko said, faking a laugh as he grabbed hold of the bot and was desperately looking for a way to shut the thing off.

The bot started playing the theme to A Perfect Murder.
