The Awkward Abduction

By: Hack Tack Zan

Alien zookeepers have abducted The Great Auk, Mario, Fred Smith, John Kerry, and Larry the Cucumber.  To escape, each one has plans to build a gadget (Cloaking Device, Lock Pick, Stun Gun, Disintegrator, and Pocket Rocket,) out of a miscellaneous object.  (A knife, crayon, glove, magnet, and cheeseburger.)  Find out which escapee had what object to make what device.

  1. Kerry does not have any metal objects, and has no idea how to make a disintegrator.
  1. Fred Smith has the glove, but cannot use it for a two word tool with rhyming syllables.
  1. The Great Auk just happened to have a crayon with him when he was abducted.
  1. Cheeseburgers are pretty hard to use as lock picks, as most locks are pretty small.
  1. Mario is a graduate from “Cloaker’s School of Deception,” but, despite his constant begging, his agent would never let him touch a hand weapon.
  1. Crayons aren’t used to harm people or melt objects.
  1. War heroes should not play with guns, so our puzzle is safe from their constant shooting.
  1. The Pocket Rocket is activated by repelling the ship with magnetism.
