Transcript:
Nate says, "She what?" Mrs. Godfrey says, "Sit down, Nate. The test is about to start." Nate says, "But I have a protest!" Nate says, "Gina says you're letting her keep her luck troll on her desk during the test!" Mrs. Godfrey says, "That's true." Nate says, "Then I should be able to keep my good luck charm on my desk!" Mrs. Godfrey says, "...and what's your good luck charm?" Nate says, "An origami grasshopper." Mrs. Godfrey says, " Hm. How interesting." Mrs. Godfrey says, "Interesting because there appears to be writing on it!" Gina says, "Good luck."
He should have made a decoy with no writing on it and showed THAT one to Mrs. Godfrey.
