Episode Description: Max and Molly are sent to Nazi-occupied Paris in 1941, where they team up with legendary entertainer and undercover spy Josephine Baker. Together, they climb the Eiffel Tower, use trigonometry to calculate distances, and smuggle secrets hidden in sheet music. Along the way, they learn how “hiding in plain sight” can be the most powerful disguise of all.
Math Concepts: Subtraction with years (1941 – 1889 = 52 years since the Eiffel Tower was built); Division; Basic Trigonometry: (tangent ratio) to calculate the distance from the Eiffel Tower to Gare du Nord.
History/Geography Concepts: Nazi occupation of Paris during World War II; Famous jazz singer/dancer Josephine Baker’s role as a performer and spy for the French Resistance; The Eiffel Tower: built for the 1889 World’s Fair, height of 330 meters, and its use as a lookout point; Gare du Nord railway station and train travel during the war;Espionage techniques, including invisible ink and hiding intelligence in sheet music
