And find a mouldy sandwich blocking an exhaust.

[Appolox]

And find used condom in one of the tubes.

[Chryseus]

That's one fancy engine,

And find somebody placed a gnome in there.

I imagine being inside that compartment must be scary. Put one foot in the wrong place and that's probably a $50k bill please.

I hope it's a trivial problem a lá someone forgot to plug in a plug or something.

I like science and stuff but i don't even know what that is.

Kinda looks like a furnace room.
