* The reveal for why test takers ''have'' to use Nr 2 Pencils; it's part of a 50-year plan by the Secret Board of Shadowy Figures to power up Scantron 3000, a robot that uses the Nr 2 Pencil lead as his power source to take over the world. It's especially funny because they never explain why they didn't just feed the lead directly to him and chose such a complex way of undertaking the plan. Not to mention that the plan is foiled at the last minute by Mr Butlertron feeding Scantron a test taken with a Nr 3 Pencil, then destroying him with a LogicBomb.
