Anna tells Cali to put Jack on the floor.  "OK Squeaker.  I need you to take my sneakers and put them by the front door.  Jack looks at the sneakers and they are like a small car to him and without wheels aren't going to be easy to move.  He grabs the laces and tries pulling one and but can't budge it.  It tries pushing it from the back toward the door but barely makes any progress.

 

"He is so weak" Anna tells her friend, "He can't even move a sneaker.  I'd say this one is a fail.  Minus 1."   She reaches over picking Jack up and deposits him in her sneaker.  She tips it up and he falls further in toward the smelly toe section.  She squeals "Squeaker in my sneaker!" and they both laugh at your misfortune.  She leaves the sneaker alone and you slowly are able to climb out to the floor.  "Better watch out Squeaker" Anna warns you, "If you stay on the floor, someone might step on you by accident." 

 

"Ohhh" Cali responds "That gives me an idea for his next challenge."  She gets up and comes back with a length of string that she ties one end to a lamp on a side table next to the couch.  She lets the length of the string hang down to the floor.  "Miss Anna is right.  You need to be able to get off the floor.  So I want you to climb up to the rope to the table."  Now Jack looks up and it has to be at least 50 feet to the top of the table.  He was never great at climbing and the string is straight without even an knots to assist him. 

 

Jack approaches the rope and attempts to climb but it's too difficult climbing a string and he really doesn't want to climb that high and then fall.  He gives up and says "I can't do that Mistress".  Anna interjects "Can't or too scared, little mousey man?"  He doesn't answer and Anna says "He's weak and scared.  Good thing he has someone as nice as you Cali to take care of him.  Meanwhile, that's minus two for you Squeaker."

 

Anna says "It's up to me to decide the next challenge that might end this game.  I need to think a few minutes to come up with something."   Meanwhile Cali scooped up Jack off the floor and held him in her lap petting him.  "Poor Squeaker.  You are so helpless." she tells him.   Cali says "You know you should bring him tomorrow to Sara's for the sleepover party.  The girls would love him."  Anna says "I don't know.  Eight girls may be too much for him and they'd never leave him alone."  Anna replies "Yeah, it would be awesome.   What do you think Squeaker?  Want to come to a party?"    Jack slips for a moment and says "I just want to be normal again."

 

Cali rolls him over and slaps his butt with her fingers and says "Bad boy, I told you to not talk about that.  You're my little pet forever."   Anna added in "That's right Squeaker, you're her little pet so I think you should write her a poem professing your love for your mistress.  That should be an easy challenge.  Cali put you down on the coffee table and went to the kitchen to get a pencil and paper.  Anna quietly says "I hope you get to come to the party tomorrow Jack.  Those girls are all going to want to play with you and once the work gets out, they will all want time with you.  No rest for you tiny Jack."  

 

Anna comes back with a stubby pencil that's as big as he is and a pad of paper that she sets down next to him.  "OK Squeaker.  We are going to get a snack while you write your poem." and they both get up to leave.    Jack looks around the table and there is no way down.  He's not sure he could even write with that pencil if he could even come up with something to write.  He thinks for a while and decides he has to write something.  He lifts the pencil but it is impossible to use it to write a single letter as it is too big and heavy and he needs to push it down to make a mark.

 

He doesn't have any success with the pencil and eventually the girls come back.  "Just as I thought" Anna says "another fail."  Cali says maybe he can recite his poem.  Go ahead Squeaker."  You decide anything is better than nothing and say "Roses are Red, Violets are blue, My mistress is wonderful and I love her too."  Anna picks him up and hugs him saying "That's so sweet." but Anna isn't buying it.  She says "Too bad I'm the judge of this challenge and that poem was bullshit.  Not original and barely any effort into it.  I say Strike three and he loses."

 

Anna tells you "Too bad but she's right Squeaker.  Now what will your punishment be?  I shouldn't go too hard on you since you tried."  Anna says "I think you should bring him to the sleepover and he'll have to entertain all of us."  Anna replies "I'm not sure.  I don't know if I want everyone to know about him, at least not yet.  However, it would be cool to bring him.  Everyone would be jealous of me having him.  I don't know."  She thinks for a while and decides ...
