"Downright Squirrely"

This story was told by Keri Heidecker on episode #117: Blindsided

Synopsis

These summaries are designed to help fans find their favorite stories and are full of spoilers!
High school teacher Keri remembers when she herself was in high school and took the SAT - an avalanche of one nightmare after another. The proctor didn’t believe her driver’s license photo was actually her, and accused her of falsifying her ID; she sat next to the open window in the testing classroom and a squirrel scampered in and sat down on her test, requiring the proctor to toss it out by its tail; and then the proctor accused her of taking out a cheat sheet, and sent her to the Test Administration office for them to decide if she should even be allowed to continue the exam when she’d proven herself to be a cheater and liar. The administrators insinuated that it was possible the rogue squirrel was actually Keri’s pet, which she’d trained to bring her a tiny scroll of test answers.
