Stupid lack of girl scout training.

And cell phone charging. Because Jessica's phone is now a useless square of metal and plastic. Which means fire is the only means of getting light right now. Which means she needs to figure out how to MAKE one.

And rubbing two sticks together does not work the way it does on cartoons.

"Oh, of course not. My mates and I, we've got a reputation for being practical jokers. They had a pretty good idea who did it. Gave most of us a laugh, though, so it was worth the detentions."

"Long as you get what you're going for..."

And as long as the joking is equal-opportunity.

"I wonder if we can keep this thing going until you two make those lights."

There's another "Is he kidding?" moment before she remembers that they probably don't know real-world stuff.

Oh yeah, and that whole seventies thing.

"...sure. That'd be cool."
