Driver's Ed [Thursday, Week 2, Period 2]
"Good morning," Ziva said once everyone had taken their seats, "and welcome back. I am very happy to see all of you again." It was reassuring to know that she hadn't frightened anyone away somehow. "Last week, many of you indicated that you are unfamiliar with driving motor vehicles. Therefore, before we proceed any further, I believe it would be best to discuss the basics of how vehicles work here." Whether "here" meant the Danger Shop or Planet Earth was anyone's guess. She was getting close to accepting her most special students, honestly.
Ziva brought up a basic car diagram, and went through all the parts at a steady pace, just slow enough that note taking might not be a problem. Once that was done, she grabbed the controls for the Danger Shop, and the room changed from a classroom to an outdoor setting, putting everyone in a field by an oval racetrack and a handful of very plain-looking cars.
"Now, I could spend all day telling you the intricate details of how a car works, but nothing will teach you better than actually driving. I would like you all to break into pairs and take some turns around the track. If you are inexperienced, try to pair up with someone who has driven before, but do not worry about that too much. Because we are in here, you will not get hurt if you do not do well. Is that clear?" It might have been, amazingly enough for her. "Then get to it."
