Scarlett was helping Nina and Amber to recreate the tunnels downstairs, the spider web one to be precise. She had no idea what it looked like so she was listening to Nina as she ordered her around, basing what she was doing off of the picture they had taken, not that it had helped much as there were so many. They attached bells to them as well so that you could hear if you had made a mistake. 

"One word. Wow," Patricia commented once she entered the room. 

"How did you do this?" Fabian asked. 

"We did a smash-and-grab in the art," Amber informed. 

"Okay, guys. Practice time. So, we need to get from here to the vanity desk, without touching any of them," Nina explained. 

"And the silver threads give you a sting," Alfie informed. 

"What about the others?" Patricia questioned. 

"We don't know yet, but I'm sure it's not good," Nina answered. 

"I don't get it. How are we supposed to get over there without touching anything?" Patricia continued. 

"Allow me," Amber offered. 

"Amber, are those the right kind of shoes for web walking?" Scarlett asked, looking down at her wedges. 

"These are my Web wedges, Scarlett. You're talking to a girl who can deadly hopscotch in formal wear. Watch and learn," Amber argued. She then began through the strings. 

Nina instructed her before she got stuck. 

"I'm snagged, I'm snagged," Amber exclaimed. 

"Man down, man down," Alfie called out.

Everyone began talking at once. 

"Just stop moving around so much. Don't move. Don't move," Nina instructed, 

"How are these web wedges working out, Amber?" Scarlett quipped. 

"Oh, this isn't going so great," Fabian commented. 

"Okay, guys, we need much more practice," Nina voiced.

"Obviously," Scarlett muttered, chuckling at Amber. 

"And I suggest a dress code of no heels or clothes that snag," Patricia spoke up. 

"Oh, yay. Tuck outfits," Amber celebrated. Her happiness was short-lived as she remained stuck. "I kind of feel like spider food." 

Alfie took a picture of her as Nina then went to help her.

The next day came around and Scarlett informed the others she couldn't attend their practice with the fake spider webs as she was once again doing chores.
