Hope they can stick the landing.

But how did the last guy get out? They don’t even have Bleeb to help them out. :-(

And why do they want to escape chemistry class? Well maybe Mr Hunter is scaring them with his water and sodium scribbling on the Blackboard. Definitely could create an explosive situation.

It worked well, until one of them forgot to duck.

Do you suppose they forgot they’re on the third floor?

Looks like one of those snap decisions one of the students came up with!

Really? Well, I suppose it is better than snapping that annoying Jane whats-her-name with the tubing.

2010 : Bleeb is not around yet!

We used to take the black Bunsen burner tubes, tie a knot at one end and attach the other end to a water faucet. Fill with water until it is the size of a big sausage and leave. Anyone removing the tube of water was soaked.

Back in HS, I remember my Chemistry class, some delinquent boys thought it was funny to throw things (textbooks, lab supplies….) out the 2nd floor window when the teacher’s back was turned. This went on quite a while.

Wasn’t Chemistry but I had a teacher so dense we could have stood up and walked out and she wouldn’t have noticed.

Uuunnnnnnnnh! BOING!

i see one of the students is wearing Kobe’s number 24. today is the memorial for him and his daughter Gianna…. how appropriate!

Why do all these characters look alike. Check out the profiles. Well, maybe not the black character.

Seems like kind of a narrow opening….

Seems much easier to just climb out of the window. Sorry, I shouldn’t question the cartoon logic.

I really like the blue hair! :)

They where in Chemistry class and a Physics class broke out.

Oh Mr Hunter, they will wish they had listened & learned when they get to my age !

Had I been required to take Chemistry, in high school, I’d still be there, 40 years later!
