The Rules:
Every week a post will be made with a list of items and a scenario. Using your wit, skill and otherwise useless abilities; find a way to complete the scenario with the items provided. You can only use a set number of items of your own choice. When I say use your skill, use it.

For example: you have a boulder and a reinforced window. I advise not using Pick Up boulder, chuck through window. Think of something adventuresque to use.

Voting: After the week voting shall start.

What If I win?: you choose the next scenario and list of items. Then you post it for all the world to see.

-------------------------------------------------------------

Ok, this is my first crack at this.
I've mentioned AGS several times to my girlfriend and she was joking one day "Are you going to make Connie's quest"?

Connie is her cat.Ã,  So, we came up with the idea of "Connie's Quest: The search for ice cream".

Ok, so Connie the cat knows there is ice cream in the freezer of the refrigerator.Ã,  But, no matter how much she begs, Jessi (her owner) will not give her any.Ã,  It is your job to figure out how to get ice cream.Ã,  There are of course some quirks to this situation.

1. Connie is unable to, by herself, get the freezer door open. (The fridge may be either side-by-side design or the top-and-bottom variety.)
2. Connie is a bit overweight and cannot jump from the floor to the counter in a single bound.
3. There are 3 other cats to deal with:
Ã,  Ã, 3a: Tigger:Ã,  Connie's brother.Ã,  These two live together in tolerance.
Ã,  Ã, 3b: Spot:Ã,  Connie's one-eyed stepbrother.Ã,  They do DO NOT get along.Ã,  His depth perception is very poor.
Ã,  Ã, 3c: Oreo: Connie's timid two-eyed stepbrother.Ã,  He is secretly in love with Connie.Ã,  He licks her forehead all the time.
4. Connie's master, Jessi, is prone to a bit of narcolepsy.Ã,  (She can fall asleep at any time.)
5. Connie's other master, Bryan, is always on the computer, upstairs, if not busy with something else urgent.
6. Connie and Tigger are declawed, thus preventing them from opening the ice cream.Ã,  Spot and Oreo still have their claws.
7. Regardless of what he is doing, Spot will always drop everything in order to chase after any thing that moves fast and has a jingle sound.
8. Oreo LOVES catnip.

OK, so keeping these items in mind, how does Connie get a taste of sweet ice cream?
You may otherwise assume the house contains normal everyday items + cat toys.
The house has two stories.

Good luck.

*Jessi puts some Ice Cream in the feezer and notices Connie*
JESSI: Ooooh no! No way! Ice Cream is only for us people!
CONNIE: Meow!
JESSI: There's no use arguing, you're not getting any! And I'm going to make sure you don't get any by standing guard here! And

neither rain, nor now, nor sleet, nor my severve narcolepsy will stop me- Zzzzzzzzzzzzz.....
CONNIE: What a stroke of luck!

WALK TO FREEZER

than see you pull one over on our masters!

SPOT: Think of it as doing you a favour. By the looks of you, you've had enough, tubby!
CONNIE: I'm not a tabby...
SPOT: I said tubby!
CONNIE: Tabby?
SPOT: TUBBY! ARE YOUR EARS CLOGGED UP WITH FAT AS WELL AS YOUR ARTERIES? ARE YOU FUCKING DEAF?
CONNIE: No. But you're blind!
SPOT: Bullshit! I can see as well as the day I was born!
CONNIE: We're born blind. I could probably walk right past you.

OPTION 3 OFF

OPTION 4 -
CONNIE: Don't make me use force, Spot!

of your paws further than about 30 degrees.
CONNIE: That's ridic-Hey...You're right...

Just to interject (sp?) a little bit of extra humor into this, everything about my puzzle is TRUE!
Except for Jessi being a "narc" (as I call it).
She simply falls asleep fast, but I thought I'd add one twist to the story.
Anyway, below are our 4 kitties.

Connie



Tigger



Spot



Oreo
