Oh Dear Merlin .... the professor actually wanted them to do something with this plant ... he was terrified that was going to be the case .... ugh ... thus far he had been doing his best to avoid eye contact with any of the plants .... or not trying to move at all because he didn't want to draw attention to himself.

Bernie was not prepared for this ... he hadn't studied anything about these plants because he frankly never wanted anything to do with them .... so raising his hand he quietly spoke the obvious "Ummm.... it's venomous" .... ugh face palm ... how could he be so stupid to give that answer ...
