THE GORDIAN KNOT
Lucius reverse engineers how it was tied in the first place in order to figure out how to unravel it.
Oswald asks his friend Ed for help.
Ed takes many precise measurements of each visible piece of rope on the outside of the knot, researches possible equations that could model the knot, and finishes up planning how to proceed by doing some final calculations with a notepad and a calculator before he methodically and meticulously unravels it. Oswald is ecstatic that they figured it out together.
Jeremiah gleefully spray-paints colorful blue, pink and yellow dots all over the knot before placing an explosive underneath it and blowing it up.
Stay tuned! For our next puzzle, the guys will find the Lost City of Atlantis. Think Oswald was a bit of a slouch this time? Just you WAIT. :-)
