Um I Think The Psych Teacher Is Dead

It’s the day of the Psych final…and the students are about to be put to the ultimate test. Their teacher is face down on the desk, possibly dead. Before the collapse, he/she handed out the exam, collected and locked away their phones, and even locked the door. Oh, and the test answers are resting under the teacher’s head. The students debate over what to do, leading to arguments that (comedically) threaten to devolve into “Lord of the Flies”/”Yellowjackets” mayhem. (One child proposes eating the teacher, even though they’ve only been there for eight minutes.)
