Question: If you were in a concrete box with no doors or windows, and all that was in the box was you, a mirror, a table, and a light so you could see, how would you get out?
Answer: First look around inside the box, then look in the mirror. When you look in the mirror you will see what you saw. You then take the saw to cut the table in half. Then take those two halves and put them together to make a whole (hole). Then put the hole on the ground and jump out.
