Problem Solving through Science! | Tuesday, 3rd period

[what_the_shock]

Today's setup in the Danger Shop looked a lot like the first one, with one big wall per student.

"Today, we're not worrying about what's past the walls - there's nothing past them. Just more walls," Miguel said. "Your job is to get through them all as fast and interestingly as possible. Beaker here," he waved at him, "has his own...thing, which he can demonstrate if he wants to. Then you can all try to top that."

Thank god for safeties.

"Meep meep meep meep," Beaker said, gesturing to his electric sledgehammer. He plugged it in and it immediately beaned him in the head.

"Meep!"

Miguel facepalmed with one hand and snatched the cord out of the wall with the other. Break the wall, Beaker!

Astrid...had an idea. It was...a very Astrid idea. Which meant that she felt it really defeated the purpose of the class, but she wasn't exactly pleased to see the walls again, and she figured everyone else would lean in toward things like tools or explosives and she...wanted to do someting different.

That wouldn't have worked anywhere except the Danger Shop or some magical world that was far beyond the rules of physics in her own world, but, honestly, what did it even matter?

Astrid had a can of paint and a paintbrush, and she painted on her wall a door. Then got a different color to paint a door knob. And then reached for the knob to turn it and, hoping the Danger Shop would play along, open the door to go through.

It was worth a try. And if that didn't work, she'd just get a buzzsaw or something and cut out the door instead.

And the door opened. Behind it was a brightly colored landscape with oversized flowers and butterflies and chirping birds.

Miguel...wasn't even gonna ask.

Talk to Miguel!

He's here!

OOC!

My brain is mush, so I am very grateful to Muppet Labs and meepmeepmeep for today's class!
