[There is a large pool with a curved edge at the bottom of the panel, with a diving board and several stickfigures in and around it. Ponytail and Cueball are talking in the pool, two hairy Kidballs are passing a ball, a Kidball is jumping of the diving board, and a Danish and a Ponytail with a drink are walking along the outside of the pool.]
Ponytail in pool: How much trouble do you think we'll be in when they find out we used the grant money to throw a huge pool party instead?
Cueball: We could argue that we did build a neutrino detector.
Cueball: There's a lot of water here. A solar neutrino will probably interact with it at some point.
Ponytail: ...Wait. Actually, if we got some photomultiplier tubes...

Title text:We definitely put the pool in a mine for shielding. It was absolutely not to hide it from the funding people.
