Stephen Spielberg Presents History II: Raiders of the Lost Syllabus, Friday, Period 1
Once the class was all settled into their seats, Yakko closed the door, went to his desk, and pulled out a garden hose. He turned it on and let it start spraying water over by his desk.
"Good morning, everyone! Today we're going to talk about the Lost City of Atlantis!"
Yes.
"Nobody knows where it was, when it sank, how it sank, how people survived, or even if it existed. Some well-studied crackpots think it was an advanced society, but if they were so smart, why were they stuck on one small island that sank? Fortunately, we're much better prepared for that kind of thing today." The students might have noticed a big lever next to Yakko right now. They definitely would have noticed it as Yakko pulled it, dropping life preservers, water wings, and oxygen masks from the ceiling onto the students' desks.
"You have plenty of time to put that on before our dramatic recreation of the sinking of Atlantis is complete. Use that time better than the ancient Atlantians did. Make sure you're not just remembered as a myth that Plato probably made up."
And then Yakko sat down as the water spread across the floor. Don't worry, Yakko closed the door so it would adhere to cartoon physics and not let any water out until the room was filled with water, and then there would suddenly be fish and such in it as it splashed down the hall.
Because that was clearly what you were worried about.

End of Class
Turns out, the room was too large for a non-cartoon garden hose to fill up quickly.
