You are apart of the Watterson family! You guys have a lot of problems, but this one is the worst one yet!
Your younger brother Darwin an orange fish with legs decided to go to a junk yard and climb on a car that's about to be destroyed by a car crusher because y'all dad (Richard) is sad because y'all's friend asked what he did while he drives by.
He tries to use the control box that he smashed but it was planned for him to use, which turns the magnet towards the car. Next he tries to use a metal ladder but obviously it got pulled towards the car sideways and not vertically.
Richard's next plan is to turn the magnet off using the control panel, but the car falls down instead, so Richard turns the magnet back on before the car hits the ground, causing the boys to hit the roof of the car. He pushes the lever too far up, though, increasing the power of the magnet and causing several metal objects in the junkyard to get attracted. This turns out to be advantageous, as Richard uses the objects to climb to where you guys are. Unfortunately, the magnet was not designed to carry that much weight the tension in the cable is too great, and it nearly snaps. The sample drop is enough to shake Richard off and, to his y'all horror, he falls.
As you and Darwin mourn his apparent death, he climbs up from behind, apparently having been able to grab something before hitting the ground. But, in typical Richard fashion, he has no idea what to do now that he is up there, prompting you to mock him again. Just then, the cable finally gives in, and the three of them are dropped. Richard and Darwin land well off to the side of the crusher, but you lands on top of the car, which itself is on top of the ladder, which itself was on top of the crusher. The car is teetering back and forth - it will not be long before it falls.
The ladder provides a shaky bridge leading outside the crusher, but you are too scared to walk it. With encouragement from Richard and memories of a similar situation from his childhood
