Regarding the shopkeeper: I'm sorry, sir. Do you have any other heavy, non-priceless instruments we could use? Are there any other contrabassoons?

Regrading the cannibals: Get out your weaponry, people! They're coming!
Regarding clumsy Roger: Get everyone involved in that tangle into the library. Make sure nobody is seriously hurt.
2 - There are several species of fern planted. None of them look edible. You could however, try uprooting all of it to use the soil.
6 - Somewhere in a janitor's closet, you find a survival seed bank with hardy black turtle beans. Those things take 48 to 70 days to grow once planted, however.
5 - Neither Roger no the children are injured. The guitar is mildly compressed. The cannibals are at the gates though.
First off, the bolded speech was supposed to represent an order to the bookworms, to arm themselves and prepare to defend the fifth floor.
