5. As soon as you approach the man, he hops up and runs into the parking lot, where he starts pelting cars with crayons. As police officers descend on you and begin hitting both of you over the head with nightsticks, you wonder where you went wrong. Go to No. 17.
6. "You propose that in the midst of criticism that I'm making people fat?" she says incredulously. "I think we need to reassess your position in this group." Go to No. 16.
7. Damn this recession! Recent budget cuts mean your office is now actually the storage room in the back of a mall's food court. Whenever you leave, you have to choose between three exits, each of which leads directly through a different business.

10. Hm, that's odd. What's Michael Phelps still doing on this box of cereal? Before you have time to answer your own question, you're seeing stars: Michael Phelps has popped out of nowhere and punched you in the side of the head, screaming something about a food bank and "ungrateful corporate sponsors". And then a squad of truncheon-wielding cops is here, and the office erupts into chaos as you pass out. By the time you come to, you see a bruised Phelps and bars. Go to No. 17.
11. What in Julia Child's pajamas is going on here? There's a man spinning around on the floor of the restaurant. Everyone else is avoiding him, but it looks like he may need help.

"You'd better have a knockout idea to make up for being late," she says.
