Seq. 210 01 - "Zit Lab Showdown" (episode: The Mom Who Loved Me)
ACTION
Pam confronts Guy over the destructive weapon he's built the Zooks to use against the Yooks. She's on a mission to dismantle his bomb, but doesn't realize Guy's already in the process of taking it apart himself. I boarded this as a comedy of errors, each fumbling over the other trying to achieve the same goal.

Zit Lab Showdown Script Pages
For Pam and Guy's confrontation, I wanted to intensify the drama in the script. So I staged their face-off atop a two story motorized maintenance staircase seen prior. This escalated the conflict to an aggressive tug of war over the stair's throttle lever. Now, whoever controls the staircase controls the bomb.
