Misschien is het tijd om hier alle
Alice in Wonderland hints te verzamelen. Is wel zo ordelijk
En misschien is het allemaal tunnelvisie, maar dan kan het draadje nog gauw genoeg gesloten worden
Te beginnen met de synopsis van Lewis Caroll's
Alice in Wonderland.

Chapter 1: Down the Rabbit HoleAlice is sitting by her sister lazily and became a bit tired, and she sees a White Rabbit in a waistcoat carrying a watch. She follows it down a rabbit hole, and falls down a very long chamber full of strange things on shelves. After landing safely on the ground, she goes into a long hallway with a glass table with a gold key. Alice opens up a curtain and finds a small door, which the key fits in perfectly, and behind it is a beautiful garden, but she can't fit in. Alice then finds a small bottle labelled "DRINK ME," and drinks it. The drink causes her to shrink. Alice accidentally leaves the key on the table, and with her diminished stature can no longer reach it. Then she was scared. She then sees a cake that says "EAT ME," and proceeds to eat it.
Chapter 2: The Pool of TearsThe consumption of the cake makes Alice grow to be 9 feet tall. She cries, creating a pool of tears. The White Rabbit comes into the hallway, and is so frightened he drops his fan and kid-gloves. Alice then fans herself with his fan and kid-gloves, causing her to shrink to become very small again, but she stops before she goes out altogether. She swims through the pool of tears she had cried when she was larger, and finds a mouse who is awfully scared of cats. They wash up onto a bank, where they meet many birds and animals, who are also soaking wet.
Chapter 3: A Caucus Race and a Long TaleA Dodo decides that the birds and animals should dry off with a Caucus Race, which has no rules except to run in a circle. After half an hour or so, the race ends and everyone wins, which means they all get prizes. Alice gives out her comfits as the prizes, and the Mouse tells Alice his long and sad tale of why he hates cats, which Alice misinterprets as "tail." The chapter ends with Alice alienating the participants of the race, resulting in her being left alone once again.
Chapter 4: The Rabbit Sends in a Little BillThe White Rabbit mistakes Alice for his house maid, Mary. He asks her to fetch a pair of gloves and a fan. Alice goes in to his house, and she finds a bottle. Though not labelled DRINK ME she drinks it anyway. The drink now makes her grow so big that she blocks the entrance and the White Rabbit is no longer able to get into the house. The White Rabbit asks a lizard named Bill to get her out. Bill climbs in through the chimney, but is kicked out by Alice's giant leg that is stuck there. The White Rabbit then pours pebbles down the chimney, which turn into cakes. Alice eats the cakes, causing her to shrink again. She goes outside, and finds a crowd of animals.
Alice then confronts a giant puppy, so she uses a stick to tire it out. She then stumbles upon a Caterpillar, who is on a mushroom smoking a hookah.
Chapter 5: Advice from a CaterpillarAlice asks how she can get bigger, but the Caterpillar asks her to recite "Old Father William" instead. After doing so (with a few errors), the Caterpillar tells her that one side of the mushroom will make her bigger and the other side will make her smaller. The Caterpillar disappears leaving Alice all alone. Alice first tries the right side, which makes her chin get stuck to her foot. Then she tries the left side, which makes her neck grow very long. A pigeon flies into her face, believing she is a serpent, but Alice tells her that she is a little girl. She then eats different sides of the mushroom and gets back to her usual height.
