MM: Exchanges may have unexpected side effects

Unending BE - episode 683379

"Why did you say so before? I'll just get an accessory that won't make me as tall."

"But you're already tall. The only way another accessorie will help is if you wear the costume past midnight again. Which can have certain... unpredictable effects."

"What kind of 'effects'?"

"Let's just say the last customer to do so hasn't come back..."

"It won't turn me into a frog or anything will it? Anything's worth getting out of this outrageously overgrown body." Marjorie stamped her long well toned leg and hit her knee on the counter. "Owwww, damn this."

"Nothing like that, but I can't recomm..."

"Whatever, I'll take a different accessory." Marjorie stormed off to the part of the store where those were on display. The annoying clerk showed up moments later with the key to where they were stored.

1. Marjorie chooses the tennis racquet. "Good tennis players are usually about my actual height."
2. Marjorie selects a set of weights. "Short and muscular could work..."
3. She picks the jump rope. "It's not that long, I'd have to be shorter to use it."
4. Marjorie chooses a gymnast's baton. "You have to be small and flexible to be a good gymnast."
5. Marjorie picks out the chainsaw. "Logging's a sport, right?"
6. *Something else.
