“No,” said Stanley. “So what will it be?” she asked Mr. Pendanski. “Do you want to fill the canteens or do you want to dig?”

The Warden got a pitchfork out of the back of the pickup and poked it through X-Ray's dirt pile,
to see if anything else might have been buried in there as well. “After you drop off X-Ray, I want you to bring back three wheelbarrows,” she said.
X-Ray got in the pickup. As the truck pulled away, he leaned out the wide window and waved.
“Zero,” said the Warden. “I want you to take over X-Ray's hole.” She seemed to know that Zero was the fastest digger.
“Armpit and Squid, you will keep digging where you have been,” she said. “But you're each going to have a helper.”
“Zigzag, you help Armpit. Magnet will help Squid. And Caveman, you'll work with Zero.”
“We're going to dig the dirt twice. Zero will dig it out of the hole, and Caveman will carefully shovel it into a wheelbarrow.”
“Zigzag will do the same for Armpit, and the same with Magnet and Squid. We don't want to miss anything.”
“If either of you find something, you'll both get the rest of the day off, and a double shower.”
“When the wheelbarrows are full, you are to dump them away from this area. We don't want any dirt piles to get in the way.”
