[Class #13 - the Turkey Job]

There was -- a lot of food here.

Corn on the cob, turkey with trimmings, three kinds of stuffing, cranberry sauce, rolls, stir-fried vegetables, two salads, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, four kinds of pie….

“And a partridge and a pear tree!” Parker giggle-snorted. “No, that’s a joke, it’s from a song.”

"Because apparently there isn't enough emphasis on overeating this week in this country," Eliot said, sounding thoroughly exasperated. "Today you guys are having an eating contest."

Hardison, however, just looked proud of himself. "Careful not to overdo it too early on the carbs, yo," he told the class. "Ain't nobody winnin' if they fall asleep halfway through."

“I would have ruled at this game when I was in school,” Parker said thoughtfully. “So have fun with it! Consider it training for Thursday.”

"I'm trained in the heimlich," Eliot said. "Try not to make yourselves sick. This is a terrible idea."

Parker was eating the popcorn and jellybeans.

What? It's good enough for that kid in the cartoon!

Eliot had his hand pressed over his eyes as he wondered just how he'd gotten talked into this tremendous waste of food.

They weren't even going to taste it properly.

Hardison was eating a delicious turkey sandwich. It wasn't as good as some turkey sandwiches he'd had in the past, but it was a lot less likely to get him dangled over a rooftop.
