"Listen to me, because this is very important. What that fairy did—that nasty, stupid fairy—is a TOTAL DISASTER. It has turned my beautiful library into a complete mess, a disaster like nobody has ever seen before. So here is the decision for you, the Librarian. You're in a very tough spot, a very bad situation, but I've got the only solution. You are not leaving this library. You are staying right here. Until every single volume—every magnificent book—in back in its proper place, those doors are staying shut. Sealed! You've got your wits, and you've got your arms. Use them! Work hard! If you don't get it done, you're looking at extreme overtime until late at night—maybe even midnight, or later! It's going to be a long night, a very tough night, because we need law and order in this library. But, if you finish—and I mean finish perfectly, 100%—I'm going to give you a reward. We're talking PIZZA. The best pizza you've ever had. Huge slices, the best toppings, beautiful cheese. It'll be fantastic. Now, get to work. Get those books back on the shelves. Principal Merlin University of Celesthall"
