Sinbad waved a green armband on stage after the Kuumba Singers performed...
...play turns beyond the macabre here, as the Maid and the Professor discuss what to do with the body. After deciding on a mass grave for the Pupil and the 39 other pupils the Professor has killed (we learn from the Maid), the Maid produces a red armband with a swastika on it, puts in on the Professor and tells him not to be afraid.

Bobby (Paul Sutera) is uncomfortable with his job as a safety monitor (he wears an armband that reads "SM"). These minor traumas remain undeveloped in comparison to Marcia and Jan's tribulations, but they are still goofily enjoyable...
