Professor T had a fitful night's sleep.
The escape from the Daleks was still playing on his
mind. It had been one of the hairiest moments of his
life. He recalled how the Daleks had been deactivated
just at the moment he was about to be exterminated. It
had certainly been a close shave. He wondered if the SFS
Lewis & Clark was still sailing the heavens,
and what hapless explorer may be seeking the help of
"assistants". Well, any further research on that would
have to be deferred.
It was a decidedly chilly morning in the
Institution. Professor T awoke and immediately started
to shiver. In fact, he felt ... odd. His beady eyes
peered over the top of the desk drawer. The classroom
looked normal enough. He looked down at
himself.
A cry was heard to echo through the
Institution. It sounded a bit
like:

Stymied Peregrinations & Asinine Mischief, Inst. of Advanced
Exploration of Myst Worlds

Meanwhile, back at Elkae's Relto, the
paper boy arrived. Unfortunately, he tossed the paper
into the pond. Elkae fished it out and attacked the Help
Wanted ads with her hair dryer.
"I'm fired. I
know it. Nobody in this place can keep a secret for more
than five minutes. I never should have let those

people]
[edit2: scratch people; Speedy's a bird

talk me into it."

Veronica
respectfully requests that Professor Thietris please
stay away from her wardrobe on her Relto, even though he
is currently <cough> exposed and in need of
clothing.
I once had a baby
hamster that looked like that, but that was when he was
first born.

Both Merlin and Mysti hear the
Professor's exclaimation. However, Merlin, knowing the
reason, doesn't go to him. But Mysti does.
He
walks into the classroom.
"Hello? Is something
wrong?"
