  SFX: Students running, panting, door opening

  Mr. B: Alright class, today we will have a pop quiz on yesterday's lesson

  Mike: Wait what?! You didn't tell us.

  Mr. B: Pop quizzes are supposed to surprise you to get your brain ready for tests.

  Annie (under her breath): The only thing I'm surprised about is your hair loss.

  Mr. B: What did you say?

  Annie: Oh um, the only thing I said was that you are such a boss.

  Mr. B: Thanks, but ... we are still having a quiz.

  Mike: Please Mr. B make us not have a pop quiz.

  Mr. B: Fine, I'm in a good mood today, no pop quiz.

  Annie and Mike: Really?!

  Mr. B: Just kidding.

  A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation.

  SFX: Students groaning, papers shuffling.

  Annie: Umm, I have a headache. Can I go to the nurse?

  Mr. B: Ok, here's a pass.

  Mike: Wait, she's lying through her teeth. Can't you see?

  Mr. B: Mike, would you like to go to the principal's office for interrupting?

  Mike: YES! PLEASE SEND ME THERE!!!

  Mr. B: Nevermind, Annie, and Mike stay here.

  Annie: Mike, let's try convincing him.

  Mike: Mr. B, did you know pop quizzes increase stress on tests?

  Mr. B: Ok, so? It's still good practice.

  Mike: Annie, look at the time.

  Annie: Wow, ok just stall him.

  Annie: Mr. B, we haven't studied so we'll get a bad grade anyway.

  Mr. B: Tell me more.

  Mike: It can also kill creativity when students could be working together.

  Mr. B: Maybe I shouldn't give you a pop quiz.

  Nerd: Actually, it trains us for future tests.

  Annie and Mike: Shut up Nerd!!!

  Mr. B: Guys, stop being mean.

  Annie: Fine.

  Mike: Mr. B are we still having the quiz?

  SFX: Bell ringing

  Mr. B: You guys have spent all class stalling me. Detention for both of you.

  Annie: Well at least we have no pop quiz.

  Mike: Mission Accomplished
