The Tendo residence, 6:00 am. February 12, 2003
Today, Ranma woke up having an idea. Said idea involves scaring his fiancee, Akane into a trap where a bucket of smelly goo awaits to fall on her head.
But how to get her in through the trip wire triggering the bucket containing the reeking concoction to fall on her head?
Ranma did buy up lots of fake rats and cockroaches in bulk spending what Soun and Genma would have wasted on more sake.
So, using his martial artist's wits Ranma snuck up into Akane's room, making it a point to place all the fake pest animals without disturbing her sleep, all over her body, as well as all over her room.
Ranma moved on to building the bucket hinge, with some screws and brackets fastened to the bucket so it would hinge downwards.
A stopper is set up so it would be removed when the fishing line trip wire is set off, which in itself is lined with cellophane tape.
"Oh man, this is gonna be great! Heheh." Ranma sniggered as he set up one hidden camera after another to record Akane's reaction.
"Mmmrrmrmrmrmm, wha? What's going on around AAAAAAAAAH! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH EEEEWWWWWW! OH MY GOD!" Akane screeched at the sight of the convincingly realistic rats and roaches In catapulting her head up!
Akane made a break for it tossing her blanket out of the way, dashing down the hallway upon exit.
"Somebody help!" Akane wailed once more as she sighted more of the plastic vermin panting and panicked before she ultimately tripped the cellophane tape and fishing line wire, and sent the bucket contents first onto her head.
"RRRRGH MY GOD!" Akane groaned disgusted at the stench, casting the bucket aside in abhorrence.
"RANMAAAA! Get your perverted ass over here!" Akane demanded, with Ranma's response being to laugh at Akane in her humiliation as he stronde up to meet his victim for a fiancee.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Gotcha! Those rats and roaches scattered all over were fakes! Spread out to get you to come a running into that smelly slime bucket!" Ranma cackled in detail to Akane's embarrassment.
"Congrats, perv. You had me at stupid, NOW HOW ABOUT HELPING ME CLEAN THAT SHIT UP! ALL OF IT! Akane barked pointing to the slime on her body, as well as the floor in the hallways.
"C'MON, HARPY! It was just a prank." "Oh yeah, why not consider a career in perverted prop comedy!" "Yeah right! No way!" "You've gotta clean this up, and wash my body to get rid of the smell!" "I ain't no butler, ya fuckin slave driver!" "Who said I was a slave driver!" "I did, Akane you banshee! I'd much rather hafta be stuck as a girl than come near your uncute, unsexy slab of pig iron for a body! Gotta take a breather. You're pissing me off already." Ranma and Akane argued over the prank before the latter was left to clean herself and her surroundings of the slime, and the smell.
As soon as Ranma and Akane came back from school come 2:30 pm, Soun and Genma could still be seen sulking in the corner of the living room together as a result of the squabble.
"What's their problem?" Ranma mused. "I have no idea." Akane replied as though having already forgotten about the prank.
"Anyways, sorry 'bout that." Ranma apologized bowing respectfully. "It's all good, Ranma. Now get out there and train Fuyuki some more, kay?" Akane replied accepting Ranma's apology as both parted ways, as though the whole thing was little more than a passing farce.
The trouble is, that the patriarchs would take it all very literally, along with everything else concerning the engagement between their respective progeny, as we would see later on.
