Recess At Last — 34 of 73

(Room 10)

Section 1 - Room 10 Itself

Room 10 is a room. "This room is exactly the same size and shape as your classroom, but the room feels like a totally different place. You remember from last year that Mr. Bradley collects stamps, and he runs the school stamp club. Everywhere, there are posters of stamps, framed 'first day covers,' display binders, and boxes of donated stamps. One of the bulletin boards is a map of the world with different stamps from the various countries. From here you could try to go north out to the playground, or south to the end of the hall."

Understand "my brother's [room]" or "brother's [room]" or "bradley's [room]" or "mr bradley's [room]" or "third/3rd grade [room]" as Room 10.

Instead of an actor going outside in Room 10:

try the person asked going north;

rule succeeds.

Before going north in Room 10:

if Unfinished Homework is happening, say "[if Mr Bradley is not in room 10]You open the door to the playground, but you see the recess monitor standing nearby and decide you[']d better not risk it. You might never get out to recess at all the rest of the year if you do. Nope, not worth it.[/l]You close the door quietly and step back into the room.[otherwise]Mr Bradley sees you trying to open the door to the playground. 'Hey, there,' he says. 'Hadn[']t you better go back and check with Mrs McClintock first? Go back to your class, Jamie.'" instead;

if the player is not warm, say "[if Mr Bradley is not in room 10]Just as you open the door, the recess monitor sees you coming out. 'Where[']s your [warmth-list]?' she asks. 'Go back and get it. I[']m not allowed to let you out without it.'[otherwise]Before you get far, you hear Mr Bradley call your name. 'Sorry,' he says. 'Can[']t go out without your [list of thermals not worn by the player]. Go back and get it.'" instead.
