Professor Thompson: Mr. MacGyver, this thesis submission is unprecedented.

Professor Thomson: Highly irregular! Highly irregular!

Mac: Well, I'm an unusual guy, I guess.

Professor Thomson: Is this your entire submission.

Mac: Peers into box. Duct tape. Swiss Army knife. Fishing line. Mirror. Yep. It's all there.

Professor Thomson: This is a collection of items, not a thesis!

Professor Thompson: My point exactly! This does not convey any knowledge!

Mac: Well, it is lacking one thing, but I could not figure out how to add myself to the box without making it too bulky.

Fangurlz hiding in the Seminar Room stacks: We have a box big enough! Climb in!

[All eyebrows around the Sem. Room table arc high]

Prof.s Thompson & Thomson: Young man, I suggest you run.

Mac: [grabs the items from the box, and makes good his escape, using each of them in turn to defeat the locks, the nets, etc.]

Prof. Thompson: While I cannot feel that that young man is cut out for academia--

Prof. Thomson: --that was undoubtedly the best thesis defense we've ever seen.
