[The Enigma & Graves comic book store has been abruptly closed for the past few weeks with the owners missing in action. Most assume it's for renovations or the somewhat shady Nigma got into some legal trouble. Monday night it reopens with a teenager calling himself Nigma's nephew in charge for the foreseeable future.]

[Okay, so everyone knows the rule of three when it comes to telling a joke. The third prank? It's kind of a doozy. A few hours before dawn, the old Gotham U Clock Tower is lit up by two giant industrial spotlights below. They reveal that someone has painted green eyes and a big, red smile on the tower. 3, 2, 1 and then the surrounding speakers start to play a laugh track that loops endlessly.

But, the fun doesn't stop there! The clocktower's hands whirl and the Joker's voice plays over the loudspeaker as the laugh track continues:] Ahem, ahem. Attention students of Gotham University. Class is cancelled for the day so that everyone can enjoy extracurricular activities. Find all five bombs on campus by sundown or the whole place will be blown SSSSKKKKKYYYY HIIIIIGGGHHHH. Heheh! Have fun!

[After she's dropped back off at the dorm mid-morning in a big black sedan that's filled with some scary looking dudes.]

Is there any way to lower the volume on that laughing?

Also, does anyone have a microwave in their dorm room I can borrow? I only need it for ten minutes or so.

And why do you only crave orange juice immediately after brushing your teeth? It's like my brain is waging war on my taste buds.

[After Conner loses it and puts his fist through one of the outdoor speakers above the dorm entrance. There's also a trail of multicolored glitter a mile wide that leads up to his door.]

I hate it here.
