Contrary to what their students believed, the teachers of Casper High School were not stupid.
Danny peeked into the classroom and saw the Space Shelf.
A picture of Mr. Lancer's sister and her three laughing children sat propped prominently displayed. He grinned at it, wondering what the story was now. Then wondered if any students saw past the disguises. Maybe it was just him but he thought it was obvious.
But when he dashed down to the gymnasium for the awards banquet honoring the bald teacher, he found it apparently was not. The high school students happily directed him over to the table reserved for Mr. Lancer's family. Several of the boys asked about the availability of Mr. Lancer's youngest niece, failing to realize it was their own classmate.
Other teachers grinned at him as he made his way past and seated next to Jazz and Dani, who were both also dolled up thanks to Sam.
Ishiyama leaned over. "So nice to meet you three at last. I find it surprising Mr. Lancer finally roped you in to visit him at the ghost capital of the world." They were only slightly surprised they agreed to dress up like this again. It was a special occasion of sorts. "I hear from your uncle you have a prostate issue? Feel free to fly past me to use the restroom if you need to."
Dani cracked up into giggles.
"Fly past," Danny said humorously. "Good one. Hear that little girl? The nephew is special at the ghost capital."
Dani straightened. "So is the niece. I got a prostate issue too."
With that, Mr. Lancer's oldest niece was the only one to fly past Ishiyama that night. Tetslaff's barking laughter from the next table over covered any sound coming from Jazz.
