It's hard to tell if Zordon is relieved or worried this morning. It's probably a bit of both, really, considering he let Alpha 5 act as the mediator in the laundry strike.

"Good morning, students, and welcome to the last day of classes for the year. I am . . . relieved to announce that the following message was received from the leader of the washer/dryer resistance around midnight last night:

During the negotiation process, a suitable form of compensation was agreed upon. As of now all students' clothes will be released to them, and we will be collecting our payment over the course of the day. We hope to not have to undergo this process again.

-- Whirlpool Top-Loader #24601"

A very brief, yet loaded, pause.

"We ask that you please avoid stampeding the laundry room in order to retrieve your personal effects for fear of provoking the washers and dryers again. Good luck to those of you taking your last finals, and everyone please enjoy the last day of classes."

Zordon doesn't mention that he actually has no idea what the laundry machines' idea of suitable compensation is . . . that's what he gets for letting Alpha do the negotiations. But really, they were most likely to sympathize with a fellow machine. Right?
