The Fourth starts singing softly to himself, "It went zip when it moved and bop when it stopped whirrrrr when it stood still.  I never knew just what it was and I guess I never will."

The Fourth seems very interested in the rockets, and spends some time condidering how he could strap them to the side of his pram.  He also considers how to add steering and brakes, but decides that those refinements can wait.  He does however start to look at manufacturing a deployable parachute, as well as the construction of a launch ramp from the courtyard...
