The story

Scientist and inventor Wayne Szalinski has been designing an energy-projecting machine intended to shrink and grow objects, but it instead explodes them.

Caught by his brother, Ron is forced to confess to Amy and Nick.

Already frustrated, Wayne discovers the broken window and snaps, repeatedly striking the machine.
