Miss Bliss: Class, Alice is feeling sick. I'm sorry, but we'll have to leave the Haunted Corn Maze. Girl: Darn! Dill: Just when this place was getting interesting! Kevin: Jeez, one person turns into a zombie and we gotta leave. Man: The shortcut to the exit is left, left, straight, right, right and left. Just howl if you get lost.
I suspect you are right- an Alice missing Halloween arc is afoot. But a minor reality check- a preschool field trip with only one grownup? 2, and more likely 3, would be barely plausible. The preschool at work has a long rope with handgrips on alternating sides to keep track of them whenever they leave the perimeter. Cutest little chain gang you ever did see. It seems to make perfect sense to the kids, but at some point one of the kids is gonna make a break for it.
