Polly: But I'm warning you: if I don't get 'em all back soon, I'm sending you off to do the extra-credit question. Just plug that disc into the TransQuizzer, then figuring out where I sent the robots should be simple. To make it so easy even you can figure it out, I'll leave the disc with the first part of the test on the first floor. Polly: P-lease, Spotley, if you're so scared, why don't you just bring them back yourself? You've got my TransQuizzer now all you need are the questions on my history quiz. I just marched those robots into the machine, pushed a few buttons, and voila! Unfortunately, there's still one more question, the extra credit question, and it's super hard! That's why I've been looking for you, Notley.īotley: That's Botley! And I want nothin' to do with your plan, Polly, just bring those robots back! Don't you see? You could destroy us all! Polly: Oh, that was the easy part, since Daddy just invented that "Handy Dandy Time Machine" upstairs. Polly: Be quiet, Plotley, this is my story! Anyway, after getting my first zero ever, I got the most brillant idea! Instead of settling for a bad grade, I changed history to match my answers.īotley: So you sent 25 of your father's robots back in time to change history?! How could you do that, Polly?! But instead of laughing like she was supposed to, she gave me a big, fat zero! I felt faint and short of breath! No one's ever given me a zero before!īotley: Well, that's not quite true, Polly.
So just to have some fun, I made up my own answers to that dumb old quiz. I already knew all the answers, and she knew I knew them. Polly: Didn't my father teach you it's rude to tell secrets, Rotley? Well, I suppose he's told you his side of everything, but what does he know? Today when I was at school, the teacher handed us a surprise quiz. Polly: I can see you've brought help, and you've got the TransQuizzer!īotley: She knows we need it to save the world. Polly: Oh, Snotley, you're back! I've been looking for you.
