"So what are we gonna do?" Carrie asked.
"I don't know. But we can't stay here. That's for sure," Samantha answered.
Suddenly, a high-pitched noise seemed to come from nowhere. Except it did come from somewhere: the radio speakers. Mr. McMillan's geeks had found a way to tap into the sound system in the labs (the offices and labs had separate systems).
Stacey transformed into a geek girl right before their eyes.
She looked down at her geeky clothes and screamed. "No! I don't want to thange." She shut her mouth immediately. "What happened to my voith?"
"You're lisping," Larry said.
"Why am I lithping?" She couldn't talk anymore. Wasn't it bad enough that she had become a geek? Did she have to have a speech impediment also?
"I don't know. But you could probably have it fixed."
"Have it fikthed? If you hadn't told Mithter McMillan about the devitheth thignal then I wouldn't even be here. I'd be gone and thafe."
"Sorry."
Slowly, Stacey began to accept her new identity. And in the end, they had a problem when Stacey had fully become a geek. One of Mr. McMillan's geeks. She would stop their plans, since they had let her in on them. She would escape the labs and report to the man that just thirty minutes earlier she had been trying to get away from.
And that's exactly what she did.
