After years of trials and tweaking, Scientist Madalynn is confident that it’s time to run some human trial with her shrink device. She calls over to the new lab assistant and uses her charm and knowledge to convince them that they’re going to be the first human shrunk by it. Last successful trial was done on a rodent and it was no big deal, it went perfect. Madalynn points the device at you, presses the button. Electricity sparks out of it and the room goes a blinding white. Madalynn blinks and to her surprise her assistant is nowhere to be found. She is delighted and nervous as she tries to navigate the flooring while looking for him with a magnifying glass. She can hear the faint sound of a voice and finally catches view of a white speck on the floor. Madalynn gets down on the ground and exclaims joyfully that everything worked perfectly and how teeny, tiny, eensie weensie the lab assistant is. Madalynn grabs the ray and presses the button only to be met with a dull beep. She presses the button again and it’s the same beep. Again and again and again until there’s a static sound and she knows the device is inoperable. Madalynn is freaking out, but also trying to keep her cool. She decides to pick the assistant up and place them in her purse and take them home for the weekend.
Joining Madalynn at home, you notice she’s wearing green ballet flats, jeans and a tight crop top while she’s at the computer trying to research solutions to this mess. Madalynn begins to dangle her shoe and has no idea that her assistant is RIGHT THERE under her foot trying to get her attention. He watches as the shoe dangles back and forth until it drops right next to him with a huge THUD. She feels around with her foot, for the shoe, while focusing on her work and accidentally steps right on the microscopic lab assistant! Sticking to the bottom of her sole, he’s lifted high and then she puts her shoe back on. After a few moments of discomfort, Madalynn pulls off her shoe and is SHOCKED to find the shrunken lab help in there! She chides him to be more careful and worries about the situation, figuring out a safe place to put him in the meantime.
Madalynn is barefoot and in a leotard suit, and black blouse, stretching out to get ready for her dance practice. She figured after the stressful events she would unwind with a little body movement. She places the leather ballet dance slippers on her feet and does a series of warm up exercises before the music comes on and she prances around. Unbeknownst to her, her tiny assistant hitched a ride and is on the dance floor. Madalynn has no idea as she moves around to the rhythm that she’s putting him in such danger. The inevitable happens and he gets pushed into the bottoms of her leather slippers and stuck there for the rest of her movement exercise.
We meet Madalynn back at home, comfy cozy in her leggings, tank top, and fuzzy pink socks with slippers. She has her note pad and a cup of tea, trying to put all of the pieces to this puzzle together. She slides the slippers off and when she puts her foot down, he hitches a ride on the fuzz as she lifts her feet onto the coffee table. After wiggling her toes in the socks a bit, he jumps down and after a few hollers she recognizes he’s on the table. She talks gently to the lab assistant and asks how he’s doing, how she’s going to fix everything but notices that he keeps staring at her feet. She peels off her pink fuzzy socks and asks if the little guy likes feet? And makes him a deal that no one in their right mind would pass up on!
