Adulting 101- Monday- 2nd period

Today the Danger Shop looked like a garage, complete with a few cars that the students would totally get to work on today.

"Last week you did some driving. This week you're going to learn what to do when you need to fix something before you can drive that car," Kitty explained. "Things happen. You leave your lights on, or it's freezing, and your battery dies. You drive over a nail and you get a flat tire. Now you could get something like AAA, which for certain issues will come out and help you get out of a bad spot, but it's good to know how to do certain things for yourself, at least until you can get them checked out by a professional. So I'm going to show you how to do them, and then you'll pick a car and try it out yourself."

Astrid had done this before, too, a few times, actually, but she'd never not be maybe a little nervous when hooking up the cables and thinking she'd mess it up just enough to get totally electrocuted and shocked.

It never happened, because it was super easy to do it correctly, but there was still always that moment of doubt and anticipation...
