Terror Tuesday: Not With a Bang...

"I wonder, could you help me sort this out?"
Her smile was dazzling, and her skirt so short,
What other answer could have come about?
The mathatician stood no chance. "Report
When you have something for me, and I'll see
What I might have for you." She blew a kiss
That stiffened all resolve. A night or three
Spent fev'rishly in calculations, this
Was not enough to solve the problem. Still,
Compulsion kept the whiteboards filling. Then,
At last the symbols yielded to the will!
But this was not a physics problem, no!
A portal to the demon realm now showed!
