“Here you go.”
Holtzman groaned. “What the hell is that?”
“You said you needed a battery. This is what we have.”
This is the worst mad scientist lab of all time, Holtzman thought.
“You hired me to build a killbot. A four-story tall killbot. You were very specific about four stories. How do you expect me to power a four story killbot with AAA batteries?”
“I don’t know,” Gilbert sniffed. “You’re the scientist. You figure it out.”
Holtzman thought carefully for a few minutes.
“Fine. I can do three stories. But you’re going to have to find me a nine-volt.”

I love it. Three stories will have to do with 9V. Who knew that this is all that is required… Fun story.
