I happen to disagree with Tom at the bottom of the page on this one. How was the teapot cursed? What whacky adventures did Annie and Kat suffer through in connection with it? Give me your answer in a three or more word essay to be turned in as late as you want.
Example:
I think that the teapot was possessed. An imp lived inside it, as a snail inhabits its shell. Whenever you tried to use the teapot, the imp would become (understandably) irate and teleport the water you had just tried to flood its home with into your lap. In addition, the teapot frequently relocate itself through said imp's teleportation ability. This teapot fell into the Court's possession. Most people at the court quickly learned not to do so, but Kat stubbornly refused to do so. After ten or twelve usages, several of which caught the imp sleeping, it decided to take revenge on Kat. One night it teleported from the Court kitchens and poured water over Kat while she was sleeping. Annie heard about it in the morning, and after consulting Parley, hit upon a scheme to trick the imp. She stayed up late in the kitchen, waiting until the teapot disappeared to torment Kat. As soon as it was gone, she placed a metal canister where the teapot had been. When the imp teleported back, the teapot hit the canister and shattered, and the imp was trapped inside. Annie released the imp at the other end of the court, and it never bothered them again.
