Wonka gave an embarassed giggle when he realized his mistake. It seemed so obvious in retrospect... it was a miracle that Honey could even reach the bowl given the height of the counter. "Er, let me see if there's a chair or stool or something around here." A quick check of the room revealed nothing, however - most industrial kitchens weren't really designed with children or Oompa-Loompas in mind, he guessed - so he just watched Honey's efforts carefully, ready to move in if something slipped.

Nothing did. He had gotten his hands a bit messy, but that was a given if you stayed in the kitchen long enough. He quickly switched the bowl with the whites in it for the one in which he'd dumped the first yolk, and said, "Well done! It can get a bit messy, but you didn't break the yolk, and that's the important part." Wetting a washcloth and handed it to Honey, he added, "You should probably wash up, though." With that, he began to separate the other eggs, one by one, until a dozen had gone into the large bowl. "Now, since it was your idea to whisk the eggs up, would you mind doing the honors? Actually, wait a tic." And, with nothing more than a nod to Mori as he passed, he dashed out the door to the cafeteria.
