Averting Disaster

Prompts = Rent, Flange, Circumvent

Red lights flashed and klaxons blared. Chief Andrews strode determinedly down the steam-filled passageway, pipes growling.

‘Johnson! Status!’

A head popped up. ‘It’s the reducing flange, Chief! She’ll blow if we can’t circumvent the flow!’

‘How much time do you need?’

‘An hour.’

‘The pressure’s building too fast! We only have minutes! Get out of there!’

A second, much younger head popped up. ’Chief! I’ve got an idea! All I need is a clothes hanger and a piece of bubblegum!’

‘Brilliant, Franklin! Do it!’

‘We also need to rent a blue laser.’

Everything paused in incomprehension. Then, ‘Move! Move!!’
