THIRD POV
They went inside the room and Mr. Wonka informed them to wear goggle-like shades, "Here. Put these on quick and don't take them off whatever you do."
They put on the shades, "This light could burn your eyeballs right out of your skulls. And we certainly don't, want that, now, do we?"
Then, they began their tour in the room, "This is the testing room for my latest and greatest invention— Television Chocolate.
"One day, it occurred to me: Hey, if television can break up a photograph into millions & millions of tiny little pieces and send it whizzing through the air then reassemble it on the other end— why can't I do the same thing with chocolate?
"Why can't I send a real bar of chocolate through the television, all ready to be eaten?", he said as an Oompa-Loompa is watching TV and changing channels.
"It sounds impossible.", Mr. Teavee said, "It is impossible.", Mike said as Mr. Wonka just ignored him.
"You don't understand anything about science. First off, there's a difference between waves and particles. Duh! Second, the amount of power it would take to convert energy into matter would be like 9 atomic bombs.", Mike informed with an attitude.
"Mumbler!", Mr. Wonka shouted, making him jump back, "Seriously... I cannot understand a single word you're saying.", Mr. Wonka said in a serious tone and Mike glared at him.
Jason patted Mike's shoulder, "Okeydokey. I shall now send a bar of chocolate from one end of the room to the other by television.", Mr. Wonka said.
"Bring in the chocolate!", he shouted as 6 Oompa-Loompas brings out a giant version of a Wonka bar and put on the stage.
"It's gotta be real big. 'Cause you know how on TV you can film a regular-size man and he comes out looking this tall? Same basic principle.", Mr. Wonka said as he pushed the button.
The giant bar floats into the air and the lights turned on and glass cylinder went down and they watch as the giant bar disappeared, "It's gone.", Charlie said in wonder, "Told you.", Mr. Wonka said.
"That bar of chocolate is now rushing through the air above our heads in a million tiny little pieces. Come over here.", Mr. Wonka said and lead as they follow to the TV.
"Watch the screen.", Mr. Wonka said as they watch as the Wonka bar appeared slowly in the TV, "Take it.", Mr. Wonka nudged Mike, "It's just a picture on a screen.", he said.
"Scaredy cat. You take it.", Mr. Wonka said to Jason, he was hesitant at first, "Go on. Just reach it and grab it.", he encouraged Jason.
Jason went in front of the screen, sticks out his hand and grabbed the Wonka bar inside the TV, "Holy buckets.", Grandpa Joe muttered.
Jason has the bar and Mr. Wonka encouraged, "Eat it. Go on. It'll be delicious. It's the same bar, it's just gotten a little smaller on the journey, that's all."
Jason unwrapped the bar and takes a nibble of the bar, "It's great.", he complimented, "It's a miracle.", Grandpa Joe said and Jason gives the bar to Augustus, "Thank you.", he said.
"So imagine you're sitting at home, watching television, and suddenly a commercial will flash onto the screen. A voice will say: Wonka's chocolates are the best in the world.
"If you don't believe us, try one for yourself. And you simply reach out and take it.", Mr. Wonka reach out his hand and return it.
"How about that?", he asked, "So can you send other things? Say like, breakfast cereal?", Mr. Teavee asked.
"Do you have any idea what breakfast cereal's made of? It's those little curly wooden shavings you find in pencil sharpeners.", Mr. Wonka insulted.
"But could you send it by television, if you wanted to?", Charlie asked, "'Course I could.", Mr. Wonka answered.
"What about people?", Mike asked, "Well, why would I want to send a person? They don't taste very good at all.", Mr. Wonka said in disgust.
"Don't realize what you're inventing? It's a teleporter. It's the most important invention in the history of the world and all you think about is chocolate.", Mike said angrily.
"Calm down, Mike. I think Mr. Wonka knows what he's talking about.", Mr. Teavee tries to convince Mike.
"No, he doesn't. He has no idea. You think he's a genius, but he's an idiot. But I'm not.", he said as he tries to run towards the transporter.
He felt someone tackled him and holding him back, he turns to see Jason is holding back, "Let me go, Jason!", Mike shouted as he tries to escape him.
"Are you crazy?! You're gonna get yourself killed if you try to teleport yourself!", Jason struggling to hold Mike back.
Mr. Black and Mr. Teavee went to them and pulled them away from each other, "Why would you that?! I was trying to prove Wonka that this can actually work!", Mike shouted as got out of his dad's grip.
"Are you that stupid?! If you do that, you'll shrink and what would happen if your body got seperated?!", Jason exclaimed.
Mr. Wonka went forward and tries to calm us down, "Now, now, children. Calm down, there's no need to shout, no need to yell. Just count to 10 and you'll be swell. Hey, that rhymes.", he giggled.
Mr. Black facepalms and said, "Mr. Wonka, you're not helping.", as he let's go of Jason, Jason went to Mike and gripped his shirt and said, "You're really stupid! I was worried about you and you know it!"
Mike looked at him and said, "Why do you care, anyway? You're just gonna leave me like other kids do."
Jason let go of his shirt and said, "You know that's not true.", Mike, then shouted, "How do you know that?! You were never there!"
"Because... because I care for you. We all care for you. Even if they don't show it, they still care about your safety."
Mike looked at them, they were looking at him in concern, "Please, Mike, we care about you. Just tell us what you want.", Mr. Teavee said concerningly.
Mike bit his lips and turns around, not wanting to show that he is holding back tears, "Friends. I need real friends.", he said tearfully and started to cry.
"Oh, Mike.", Jason said softly, went to him and give him a hug. Mike hugged him tightly and cried on his shoulder.
Mr. Teavee went to him and puts his hand on his shoulder, "I'm sorry, Mike, I never knew you were holding back like this.", Mike, then, hugged his dad.
Then, Mike wiped his tears and went to Mr. Wonka, "I'm sorry for calling you an idiot and trying to go to your teleporter.", he apologized.
Mr. Wonka looked at him and said, "It's fine, little boy, just don't do it again. Now, on with the tour.", and they went back to the elevator.
The Oompa-Loompas shut down the room and Mr. Wonka said, "There's so much left to see. Now, how many children are left?"
They remove the shades and Grandpa Joe said, "Mr. Wonka, Charlie and Jason are the only ones who didn't get in trouble."
"Really?", Mr. Wonka asked, Charlie and Jason nodded, "Yes, sir.", Charlie said softly, "Oh, my dear boy. That means you two have won!", Mr. Wonka said, surprising the rest of the guests
Mr. Wonka shakes their hands vigorously, "Oh, I do congratulate you two, I really do. I'm absolutely delighted. I had a hunch, you know, right from the beginning. Well done.
"Now, we mustn't dilly or dally. Because we have an enormous number of things to do before the day's out.", Mr. Wonka let go of their hands, "But luckily for us, we have the great glass elevator to speed things al-", he bumped into the elevator hard, making the adults wince in pain and the kids hold their laughs.
"Speed things along.", Mr. Wonka said, acted like nothing happens, they put the shades into a bucket and went inside the elevator.
Mr. Wonka pressed a button that says, UP AND OUT, "'Up and Out?' What kind of room is that?", Charlie asked, "Hold on.", Mr. Wonka said as the elevator starts to go up fast.
"Oh, my goodness. We're gonna need to go much faster. Otherwise, we'll just never break through.", Mr. Wonka said, making them looked at him like crazy.
"You're saying that...", Jason said, "I've been longing to press that button for years. Well, here we go. Up and out!", Mr. Wonka said excitedly.
"You mean that we're going to crash?!", Violet panicked, "But it's made of glass.", Veruca said fearfully, "It vill smash into a million pieces!", Augustus said, "You're crazy!", Mike exclaimed.
But Mr. Wonka laughed maniacally as they are going faster, the adults shield their kids as they crash into the roof.
