You get to school at [time]. Hopefully you aren’t late! In your classroom, you see ________________ [teacher’s name] collecting yesterday’s homework—the homework you don’t have because the universe has conveniently destroyed it. You blurt out the first excuse that comes to mind: “I’m really sorry, but my [noun] ate my homework!”

[number] seconds pass in utter silence. [teacher’s name] looks at you [adverb ending in -ly]. “Don’t worry about your homework,” they say, “when things like this happen just remember, [song lyric].”
