Re: Assignment: [1/23]

Izzie stares at the battered old jeep for a few minutes, trying to remember what her uncle had tried to teach her about cars. She figures she might as well start at the top of the list.

Locating the severed brake line, Izzie carefully wrapped a piece of uncooked, rather stale bacon around the two pieces of tubing. She figured the bacon would absorb any brake fluid that leaked as she couldn't fit the two peices of tubing back together perfectly. Popping some gum in her mouth she chewed quickly, then divided the gum into two pieces to wrap around the bacon creating a seal. She then proceeded to wrap the entire thing in duct tape.

Not quite sure how she is planning on fixing the blown fuse, Izzie climbs into the jeep and finds the fuse box just to the left of the steering wheel. The blown fuse is clearly visible, with its melted center strip, and Izzie pops it out with the Swiss Army Knife. Hating to leave the project unfinished she frowns.

After several minutes, Izzie climbs back out of the jeep and wrestles with the hood, deciding it would be better to move on with her work. Finding the cracked radiator, Izzie decides to use the gum again to create a seal. She knows she needs something to protect the seal from all the heat under the hood. So she cracks the eggs from the cooler, and carefully positions the eggshells in double layers over the gum. She covers the whole mess with duct tape. Three layers of duct tape to be exact.

Izzie decides that she has no idea how to solve the problem of the lost keys, but she watches Sam strip the wires and duct tape them together. Not knowing enough about cars, Izzie decides not to try something quite so complicated looking. She'll have to ask Sam to show her how to do that sometime though.

Raising her hand, she says, "Hey, Mac? I'm done."
