dley's Closet

Mr Bradley's closet is inside from Room 10. "Smells awfully funny in here. There is an enormous clump of student belongings piled on the floor here. The only exit is out to the classroom."

Instead of going west in Room 10, try going inside.

Instead of going east in Mr Bradley's Closet, try going outside.

The clump of student belongings is in Mr Bradley's closet. It is fixed in place. The description of the clump is "It is a tangled mess of coats, hats, scarves, school bags, lunch boxes, and other unidentifiable things. You never could understand how everyone manages to find all their own things so easily at the end of the day."

The tangled mess is scenery in Mr Bradley's closet. The description of the tangled mess is "A complete mess. Everything is tangled together." Understand "coats" or "hats" or "scarves" or "school" or "bags" or "schoolbags" or "lunch" or "boxes" or "lunchboxes" or "unidentifiable" as the tangled mess.

Instead of taking the clump, say "You don[']t really want to pick up the whole pile, do you? I didn[']t think so."

Instead of taking the tangled mess, say "You try to extricate something from the pile, but it's impossible to do it without removing everything at once. Better to leave it alone."

Instead of searching the clump, say "You dig around for a while, but there really isn[']t anything here worth looking for."
