Eliza stood at her station, concerned eyes on Ethan and Minerva...and on that big baby belly. She was glad to hear there wouldn't be any need to rush her to the hospital to deliver - so at least she could put that thought away for a moment. The other one though, about her friends, she had more trouble with. What's the matter with them? She knew they hadn't been around and had heard something about a detention, but she hadn't gotten the full details yet. They seemed awfully sad and that made her sad, a little. Mostly though she wanted to give them ice cream because it would probably help. Later though.
She looked at the floating plant and hazarded a guess. "Is it some kind of hybrid? A dirigible plum mixed with some sort of pine tree?" Or maybe it was just a regular tree that she had levitated to fool all of them. She wouldn't know until the professor revealed the answer.
