Who: Scotty and Ivy When: A little bit into the obstacle course challenge Where: On the obstacle course
Was it wrong to admit that Scotty loved this? Because Scotty loved this. He had been wondering if maybe he should be worried about the “challenges” or “experiments” that they would go through when they finally came, but now… This.
Was it okay to say that this was the best kidnapping ever?
Scotty loved the obstacle course. It reminded him of the ones he would do with the football team, and before that at summer camp. This one was more challenging, and there was the threat of being zapped if he stopped, but why on earth would he stop? Vaulting over logs was awesome! Climbing a rope was awesome! All of this was just fun, and while he kind of wanted to stick it to The Man and not do things, he loved the chance to show off and rush through the thing, and then do it all over again.
So he did. He went through the course, only hesitating when he had to run back to the screen to make sure he was doing certain obstacles right, then starting the course over and doing his best to pick up speed. Because this was awesome.
He completed his first round very quickly, hooting proudly when he got to the top of the rope climb and slid back down. Then he jogged back around to the beginning, chanting “Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!” the whole time.
