McStick finds nothing in the vent, but it produces warm air, presumably from the furnace. If anything was in there it must be burnt up now.

The red head just says since nobody else is here yet, McStick and Murdock (for that is Emo Kid's name, it seems) should go meet Bubba outside the Danger Maze.

Bubba is here waiting. He explains that the first floor of the Danger Maze has been made into a training ground for students. It is meant to make you sue your abilities practically. Those who do not know their abilities may end up tapping into them out of necessity. He says, however, whatever you do do not go down any stairs. It leads to deeper, mroe dangerous parts, and they won't be able to get you out easily.

McStick partially closes the door, and his eyes adjust so he can inspect the room for you.

There is a gray shoelace on the floor, but McStick's inventory is full. There is a vent near the ceiling, but it looks too small to crawl through.

There's nothing there now, but McStick could've sworn he saw the eyes you're talking about before they vanished...

There is a locked panel in the corner. It looks like it's connected to the other door.

[Well, I'm out for the night, ciao till tomorrow all]

Looks like we've hit a dead end. EQUIP butterknife so we can pick up the shoelace, then head back to the entrance and go the other way.

McStick replaces the shoelace with the fork, as carrying around a weapon might give other students the wrong idea.

On his way to the other side of the starting room, McStick tries the "toggle lights" command.

+1 Intelligence = 6 for observational ideas. Unfortunately, observed the wrong thing... at least for right now. Also, the thing where the shoelace was is the spork we switched it with.

Poking the screen yields no interesting results.

Look for a WHITE button somewhere.

A video plays on the monitor.

Try Red, Green, Yellow, Magenta/Pink, and White. I would swear I saw those in that order around 0:18.

I think it should be flipped around. The red one comes last and the red one coming last seems to be a common theme in the song.

Also possible that the white one should be yellow, and the yellow should be orange. Because I can't see a white button there.
