Mnemonic

In the prison where you once kept Wolverine, you find a beating heart. You don't understand how it's still going, but you know you need to hurry up and do something, or it might stop all of a sudden.

Hints

Picture this beating heart in the prison. Was it Wolverine's? That would explain why it's, like, beating all supernaturally on its own. What should you do with it? You'd better hurry, its owner probably needs it.

Mnemonic

You start to overheat as you hurry around, so you grab a cucumber (きゅう) to cool you down. The high water content re-hydrates you and lets you continue hurrying to help save this heart.

Hints

And if it really is Wolverine's heart, you're gonna have to be cool as a cucumber when you try to help him, even if you're in a hurry. He's emotionally cold, remember? Gotta play it cool with him, despite the emergency.
