Panel 1

A wide medium shot of the classroom. Xero stands hunched at the front, visibly uncomfortable, glancing desperately around the room. The Professor stands at the back with arms folded, watching. Zane sits at his desk with a wide smirk. Kwame watches with quiet amusement. Caption reads: "After what felt like an awkward amount of time, some groans, and some huffs and puffs..." Xero says: "Umm... so Earth has umm, big animals... and umm, small animals."

Panel 2

A close-up of Xero staring blankly into the middle distance, one hand nervously fidgeting with his shirt collar. He is visibly making things up as he goes. Xero says: "Some are really scary. And some... aren't."

Panel 3

A close-up of Xero, who has straightened up slightly with a flash of misplaced confidence. He has fully committed to the bluff. Xero says: "So there's this big one. They call him a... T. rex. He's umm... a vegetarian. Eats plants and things like that."

Panel 4

A wide dramatic shot of the classroom. The Professor flicks a switch, and a towering photorealistic 3D hologram of a T. rex erupts into the room — teeth bared, eyes fierce, filling the space with menace. Zane flies backwards off his chair in shock, arms flailing as he crashes to the floor. Kwame flinches back. Xero stares up at the creature with a slowly dawning expression of concern. Sound effect: CRASH!
