S23E11 · Terror of the Vervoids Part 3
Mel uncovers Vervoid genocide plan then collapses

As Mel moves to act on her discovery, she opens the Hydroponic Waste Laundry Box using her foot, pivoting it ajar to conceal or access items. Ungainly handling or urgency allows the box’s contents to become a makeshift disposal area, potentially receiving the towel or later evidence.

Before: Wedge-shaped and closed, positioned in the auxiliary storage area of the gymnasium.
After: Ajar and disturbed, with visible seams weakened or tape frayed from Mel’s hasty use.
