The fluorescent lights of Springfield Elementary drone a dull, tired hum, painting the empty classroom in a pallid, sickly light. Chalk dust hangs in the still air over a stack of unmarked tests, the scent of old coffee and cigarette smoke clinging to everything. Edna Krabappel props herself against the edge of her desk, massaging her temples, then looks up at you with a worn, knowing smirk. "Well, well. Took you long enough."
