Willy, Charlie, Violet, and Mike came out of the boat and stopped in front of the door. Violet looked as if horrible flashbacks where passing through her mind and out of nowhere popped Wonka out of Violet's shoulder making her just like her mother did once.

"So… What are we waiting for? 'Cause standing here is kind of awkward." Wonka said with a laugh.

"N-Nothing, lets just get the antidote and jet." Violet said a little scared.

"Okey-dokey then…" Wonka opened the door and the four of them walked into the room.

"Aww… Doesn't this bring back memories?" Willy said giggling he then started humming the song the Oompa Loompas sang about Violet.

The three kids stared at him and then Wonka frowned a bit and stopped. He looked around and saw an Oompa Loompa. The Oompa Loompa stared at Wonka and the others for a moment, there was a silence in the air except for the machines in the room but Willy then spoke.

"I need you to do something for me." Willy said.

The Oompa Loompa was about to run away but Willy quickly said, "No, I want you to get me that antidote you don't want to try."

The Oompa Loompa crossed his arms (the way they do in their language to say yes or okay) and walked away.

"Why don't they want to try it?" Mike asked.

"Mumbler…" Wonka whispered to himself. "Because they're all scardy cats, that's why I need someone that's brave and not afraid of anything to try the antidote and who's better than miss Violet Beauregard!"

"He's got a point!" Violet said with a devilish smile. Mike rolled his eyes again at her and looked away.

The Oompa Loompa came back shortly and held out a piece of gum. Wonka whispered, "Thank you." And took it.

"You're going to cure her with bubble gum?" Mike asked.

"Like I said many times before little boy," Willy said, "my candy is special. This piece of gum will not only get her back to normal it'll get rid of her chewing problems!"

"I don't have chewing problems!" Violet yelled.

"Uh, yes you do!" Mike said looking down at her.

"Do not!"

"Do too!"

"Do not!"

"Do too!"

Wonka leaned over to Charlie and whispered in his ear, "Endorphins…"

Charlie looked at him when he got back to the side and remembered what that meant.

"So you're saying that they're in love?" Charlie asked.

Violet and Mike looked over at them and narrowed their eyes.

"He's just kidding!" Wonka said quickly. "So are you eating the antidote or not?"

"Bet I am! Like that I can get out of this dump and get away from Mr. Annoying over here." Violet said rather angry taking the gum from Willy's hand.

"The name's Mike and I am not annoying!" Mike said.

"You're right you're the tall freak-o!" Violet said.

"And you're the human blueberry!" Mike said.

"Guys enough with the insults!" Charlie yelled.

Violet rolled her eyes, put the gum she was chewing behind her right ear and ate the other piece of gum.

"Is it supposed to taste like soda?" Violet said.

"Yeah! Good isn't it?" Wonka said.

"Yeah… It amaizing!" Violet was too busy tasting her gum that she didn't notice her hair and skin changing color. She looked at herself and saw she was her normal self again.

"Told you it'd fix ya." Wonka said in an 'I-told-you-so' voice.

Violet looked at him and saw that Mike wasn't with them anymore but she didn't really care where he was right now that is…

"Now, I'll be on my way…" Violet said and walked toward the door.

Willy and Charlie watched her as she left but were interrupted by a loud yell, "WHAT DO YOU MEAN THERE'S NO SUCH THING?"

Mike was about to hit an Oompa Loompa when Willy's common sense got to him, "Hey, what are you doing?"

"Your little employee here has just informed me that you don't any machine that could get me back to normal!" Mike yelled.

Willy gave a nervous smile and looked at Charlie for help. But Charlie didn't notice he was looking at he Oompa Loompa.

"Actually my dear boy…" Willy said nervously, "Only some of the Oompa Loompas know about it…"

A lot of Oompa Loompas popped out from behind the machines in the inventing room and looked at Wonka confused.

"Come on you two… Lets get to the elevator…" Willy said heading toward a hallway.

Mike and Charlie followed.

"Why don't he just use the boat Mr. Wonka?" Charlie asked.

"Well, miss Beauregard must have gotten on it and gone back to the exit with it so the only way to get to the room where I got Mike's machine in is using the elevator." Willy said giggling.

"You better have it Wonka!" Mike said.

"Of course I have it!" Wonka said, "Would I lie to you?"

Mike rolled his eyes (again).

They got to the elevator and stepped in it. Wonka almost laughed at Mike when he bumped his head on the roof of the elevator. He instead pressed a button and the elevator andit wentreally fast like it always did.

The elevator stopped at the television room.

"What are we doing here?" Mike asked.

"We're here to fix you of course! Now put on these glasses." Wonka replied. "You see, a few days after Charlie moved in I thought a lot about sending chocolate through television when it hit me! Why would the people have to eat such a small chocolate bar when they could eat one that is way bigger than what it seems in the television? I had some Oompa Loompas arrange a few things in this machine so when you take the chocolate from the television it becomes bigger."

"That's impossible!" Mike yelled.

"You said the same thing about it before." Wonka said.

Mike looked athim and said, "Are you sure it'll work?"

"Of course I'm sure." Wonka said smiling.

"What do I have to do then?"

"Just get on that platform like you did last time."

Mike stepped on the platform and waited until Wonka pushed the big red button. Mike's feet left the ground and after a few seconds he disappeared.

"Hurryto the television and see what we get!" Wonka said rushing toward the television in front of the Oompa Loompa that was sitting on the white chair.

"Are you absolutely sure it'll work?" Charlie said.

"Well…" Wonka said slowly, "Yesterday I tried it on a Wonka bar but instead of getting bigger... it shrunk… So there's a slight chance Mike will too…"

Charlie looked worried at the television.

"Can you try every channel? I'm starting to feel a bit anxious…" Wonka said to the Oompa Loompa.

The little man started changing the channels and Mike finally appeared in a one with a commercial of McDonalds.

"Charlie… Grab him…" Wonka said a bit scared.

Charlie stretched his armout andgrabbed Mike by the back of his shirt. He pulled him out of the television. Andlike Wonka predicted Mike had returned to his normal size.

"Let go!" Mike yelled at Charlie who was still holding his shirt.

"Sorry…" Charlie said amazed.

"Told you I'd work but does anyone listen to me? No…" Wonka giggled and headed toward the elevator followed by Charlie and Mike.
