No Entry

"It's ready!

Thank you very much, loosening that tile sure was thirsty work!

THAT was the dynamite!"

- Madame Curie and Aristotle

No Entry is the second episode of the series. It focuses on Levers and Fulcrums and features the song of the same name.

Plot
Aristotle and Madame Curie are frustrated because their scientific experiments never seem to work when the young Boffins are around.

Somehow, the kitchen tile which leads from the benchtop down to the cupboard gets jammed, and Aristotle is stuck on the benchtop. Madame Curie decides that the only way to unjam the tile is by blowing it up with dynamite. Aristotle panics as he knows this is not a good idea. The young Boffins from next door appear and Aristotle explains what is about to happen, he then suggests that they use a scientific method to free the tile, but Newton protests at the very mention of science, as he believes it would fail them again. He then proceeds to leave, but quickly changes his mind after he realises how dangerous the situation is.

The three Boffins try many methods of freeing the title, but none of them work, their dispair is only worsened when Madame Curie informs them that the dynamite is almost ready. Aristotle, feeling quite hopeless, sits on the end of a fork, which is propped up in the middle by a cork, and continues to think, Newton sits on the other end, which promptly sends Aristotle flying through the air, eventually landing in the kitchen sink. Newton and Echo rush to see if Aristotle is alright, he is, in fact the incident has given him an idea!

Newton, Echo and Aristotle demonstrate how to use the fork as a lever, and the cork as a fulcrum through a song.

The three Boffins succesfully unjam the title, and enter the cupboard, However, Aristotle is quite thirsty and drinks what he thinks is chocolate milk from a beaker in the laboratory, Madame Curie then informs him that it was actually the dynamite, but shortly afterwards, they realise that Madame Curie had used the wrong ingredients, luckily!
