All play and no work made Jack a guilty-feeling boy. It wasn't that he'd done nothing all week, exactly, it was just that half of what he'd done had involved the pool, the deck around it, and sleeping too much. Yes, he'd spent a full day trying to get up on the hotel's roof (and failing), and another day walking around outside, measuring exactly

The library was always a quiet place where one could generally be guaranteed some alone time...or at least little company to worry about. It wasn't that he wanted to be left alone; but a little time in one's own company, curled up with a good book was just what the Doctor ordered. Pun intended.

"Like the old rhyme- 'can't go around it, can't go through it', so I'm trying to go over it. See if whatever we send floating up comes down, or if we can maybe get out flying. If that doesn't work, I swear I'm gonna start tunneling and see what happens." And after that, he was going to really start breaking walls.
