Normally he's/she's used to having a bit of free rein in the lab, fixing up some of the machinery, playing with the mice and with Wiki the signing chimpanzee, but now all of a sudden the lead researcher has <Sim> running these simple and formulaic tests that even Wiki could do, and <Sim>'s not so happy about it. Then it occurs to him/her that Wiki the signing chimpanzee COULD run the test suites! After all, all they are a bunch of checkboxes, one after the other. <Sim> never pays much attention to them anyways. Should <Sim> let Wiki do the test suites, or take a stand for himself/herself and tell her boss what he/she thinks?

school science texts are incapable of portraying the wonders of science in any way other than the most boring, convoluted, and drab. <Sim> decides that enough is enough, and that his/her job as a teacher is not to make sure his/her students have memorized the periodic table, but to get them interested in science and in learning. It's time for a field trip! All <Sim> has to do is decide whether the class should visit the mall or local video arcade, in the name of science, of course.

| rowspan="4" valign="top" |Lately <Sim>'s grown weary of his/her scholarly life, and weary of the charade that so many university academics must be part of in order to weather the "publish or perish" phenomenon so common in today's collegiate environs. He/She misses the hands-on aspects of being a scientist and is tired of having to spend such a large part of his/her career lecturing and writing, when what he/she should be doing is discovering. It's high time that he/she did something about it. The only tough part is figuring out what to do without risking his/her cushy position as an "Academic." <Sim> mulls it over for a bit and decides that he/she should either spend the day working on his/her old theory of extra special relativity or look into finishing his/her field work in the ancestral structures of the Llama family.
