  > Go downwards
  You get off the medium plastic block.
  
  You are east of the gliding rocking chair that is fun to ride on and north of the big TV that Sesame Street comes from. On the wall is a big bookcase full of chewy books. There is a way into the kitchen to the north but one of those baby gates is there, that is no fair.
  
  About half a parent high in the bookcase is your favorite toy.
  
  Part of your playpen is here, there is more of it to the southwest.
  
  You can also see a tall plastic block, a short plastic block (on which is Zoe), a medium plastic block, a plastic cup, a little doll, and a much-loved kangaroo here.
  
  "It's not a matter of control," Marion says, "you can't really control a ten-month old."
  
  Zoe gets onto the medium plastic block.
  
  > get on the small block
  You get onto the short plastic block.
  
  The mom says, "I'm just glad we aren't still dealing with this problem."
  
  Zoe gets onto the tall plastic block.
  
  > get on the medium block
  (getting off the short plastic block)
  You carefully climb onto the medium plastic block, it is a ways off the ground.
  
  Zoe pokes the squishy ball towards your favorite toy, she is doing the baby equivalent of randomly using everything in your inventory on an object.
  
  > get on the tall block
  (getting off the medium plastic block)
  You clamber up onto the tall plastic block, you are getting so high.
  
  Zoe gets onto the medium plastic block.
  
  > check your inventory
  You are carrying:
  a squid costume (being worn)
  
  Zoe gets onto the short plastic block.
  
  > bite Zoe
  There is no way the parents will believe you had nothing to do with hurting her, you'd better leave her alone for now.
  
  Zoe climbs down off of the short plastic block.
  
  > remove the costume
  You cannot see how it comes off, maybe you will be stuck in it forever.
  
  Zoe tosses aside the squishy ball and she picks up a much-loved kangaroo.
  
  > examine Zoe
  Grr, Zoe Kinmundy. That little red-haired girl has this ladybug costume on, it is supposed to be cute but you are not fooled. Her red hair is in pigtails, like that will fool anyone into thinking she is nice. She has a death-grip on a much-loved kangaroo.
  
  Zoe gets onto the short plastic block.
  
  > examine the squid
  It is like a squid if a squid was all plush and powder blue and didn't have any suckers. You are wearing it and its tentacles cover your arms and hands.
  
  Zoe starts to climb up onto the medium plastic block but then since you are on the higher blocks she looks up at you and makes this annoyed face.
  
  > look at the ladybug
  Black and red and cute all over, though it is not so cute when Zoe is wearing it.
  
  Zoe starts to climb up onto the medium plastic block but then since you are on the higher blocks she looks up at you and makes this annoyed face.
  
  > examine the tentacles
  Wow that would end with your face all planted and full of pain, let's not do that.
  
  Zoe starts to climb up onto the medium plastic block but then since you are on the higher blocks she looks up at you and makes this annoyed face.

  > suck it
  You don't have speech down yet.
  
  Zoe starts to climb up onto the medium plastic block but then since you are on the higher blocks she looks up at you and makes this annoyed face.
  
  > Wave tentacles
  You shake the squid costume and that is okay I guess.
  
  Zoe starts to climb up onto the medium plastic block but then since you are on the higher blocks she looks up at you and makes this annoyed face.
  
  > hit the toy with the tentacles
  See for you to do that on command you'd have to be potty trained and you are not, that is just another way the man controls you.
  
  Zoe starts to climb up onto the medium plastic block but then since you are on the higher blocks she looks up at you and makes this annoyed face.
  
  You have short arms, you can't reach your favorite toy from up here.
  
  The mom says, "The other day when we were out, I saw a mom with her toddler on her leash."
  
  Zoe starts to climb up onto the medium plastic block but then since you are on the higher blocks she looks up at you and makes this annoyed face.
  
  > Pee
  See for you to do that on command you'd have to be potty trained and you are not, that is just another way the man controls you.
  
  "What?" Becca says, and the mom is all, "I know! The toddler was wearing this monkey backpack and the tail unspooled into a leash that the mom held."
  
  Zoe starts to climb up onto the medium plastic block but then since you are on the higher blocks she looks up at you and makes this annoyed face.
  
  > get on the medium block
  (getting off the tall plastic block)
  You carefully climb onto the medium plastic block, it is a ways off the ground.
  
  Parry says, "I don't know, that sounds like a clever idea."
  
  Zoe starts to climb up onto the medium plastic block but then since you are on the higher blocks she looks up at you and makes this annoyed face. Clearly she is waiting for you to go down directly from the medium block.
