How to Make Friends and Influence People [Tuesday, March 11, 2014]
Anakin, who'd gotten a visual reminder of the time his son and Gavin Darklighter had thought they'd been Siegfried and Roy, not the most dignified island moment ever, might have let that influence the mood he was in when he'd programmed the Danger Shop.
"Welcome to Geonosis," he said with a wicked smile as each student found themselves handcuffed to a huge stone pillar in the middle of an arena. "Sometimes negotiations go poorly. In this case, they've gone straight to poodoo. You have thirty seconds before your captors will release an acklay--an image of a giant bug helpfully sprang to holographic life before them--"a nexu, and a reek."
More photos helpfully showed what was going to try to eat them.
"Working together, get out of the arena." Anakin smiled. "And girls, you have a hairpin inside your sleeves because when I was in this very same situation--" which said something about the poor choices Anakin had made in his life, "--my first wife was smart enough to have one in her sleeve and used it to pick the lock on her cuffs. I was too busy bickering with my teacher at the time to do something just as useful."
He smiled again. "Welcome to aggressive negotiations."

Re: Get out of your handcuffs!
It was a simulation. It wasn't real. It looked real. It looked like a nightmare. But it wasn't real.
Re: Get out of your handcuffs!
"Run!"
She shifted, slithering her way out of her clothes and yipped at Elsa, urging her on. Looks like it was going to be a fight after all, dammit.
Re: Get out of your handcuffs!
Hiding, she could do, maybe.
Maybe?
She'd been hiding her entire life. Of course she could.
