Answer:
The ropes are intended to hold and stretch to death the individual who lay down on the waterbed.
Explanation:
The question presented above refers to "The Lightning Thief" written by Rick Riordan, where we are introduced to Percy Jackson a boy who is Poseidon's son with a human, becoming a demigod. Percy is accused of stealing one of Zeus' lightning bolts and needs, along with his friends, to find a way to prove his innocence.
While reading this story, we are introduced to a character named Crusty, who owns a waterbed shop. Crusty, in fact, is a cruel and dishonest sorcerer, who tricks customers into trying out the waterbeds. When customers get down on waterbeds, Crusty shouts the word "Ergo," which causes huge ropes to come out from under the waterbed, trap customers and stretch them to death.
In fact, it's very easy to do as a creative artist. Painters get attached to their works on canvas, musicians get attached to their songs and many writers get attached to their words. For writers, this attachment is one of the reasons why editors exist. Coming from an objective place, they aren't likely to try and preserve your work over their greater interests, which usually lie on the business end of the scale.

Global warming is the term used to describe the rising of the average temperature on Earth. It has to do with the overall climate of the Earth rather than the weather on any given day. It is melting the ice of Antarctica which will cause the water level to permanently rise causing flood.
