This one’s set in the fashion design school I went to right after graduating from high school.
Art history class was often one big slide show where the teacher managed to keep it interesting (in contrast to the color theory teacher whose droning voice often put me to sleep). She was intelligent and lively, and she highlighted what we needed to know about the artworks presented. Of course, that wasn’t enough for Frankie, a small little man. Apparently, not much was there at all, and he decided Art History was a course in the paranormal. When the teacher reviewed Stone Age, Neolithic, and Egyptian art, Frankie constantly interrupted her to ask if space aliens visited them and influenced with their works.
She, like most professional educators, displayed an incredible amount of patience.
If space aliens had anything to do with this, they most likely abducted Frankie some time ago before his admission to the school and vaporized most of his grey matter.
