Plot Setup

Machine is still not fixed; Doctor When needs Chronos' password to her supercomputer. He doesn't know it, but she gave him this mix tape long ago and hinted that she had hidden her most important secrets in it - which could very well be her password.

Props

Mixtape with insert.

Plot Point to Convey

Chronos loves When, and she got slimed at the science fair. Plus, the machine is fixed now.

Short Description

Teams get a mixtape created by Catherine Chronus when she was in high school, which may reveal her computer password.

Detailed Description

Teams receive or find a mixtape created by Catherine Chronus when she was in high school; they're told that Catherine had said it contained one of her biggest secrets, and Dr. When thinks that's probably the password to her computer. Enclosed with the mixtape is a poem that Catherine had written to young Wesley. All of the songs turn out to be time-related, and the puzzle solution implies that Catherine had a crush on Wesley.

 ==Props==
-If players go to Chronos' childhood home, they could see 1) a shrine to Wesley, with the mix tape in the middle, and also find an altered version of the school newspaper they saw in Act I (instead of "Wesley Makes Splash" with picture of him slimed, it says "Shower Time For Chronus" and shows everyone laughing at her and Wesley and Buffy making out, etc.
+Mixtape with insert.
-We might want to include in the set dressing foreshadowing of Buffy's love of art, perhaps old textbooks.
