The Scenario: "You were recently accused of skipping school to pig out on homemade cupcakes and binge watch Young Sheldon on Netflix. Luckily, you lawyered up and are now being prepped to undergo a lie detector test orchestrated by Big Brother. Big Brother is notorious for conducting these interviews in overheated dark cells beneath heat lamps with the unnerving drip of water surrounding you. In order to avoid the rapid heartbeats, temple sweats, and unnecessary fidgets, your lawyer would like you to prepare your answers before meeting within the pressure cooker of Big Brother." Describe this class in three sentences using one verb per sentence. Be prepared to share out one of your sentences.
