    One of my favorite lines in the game is (paraphrasing):

    The problem with the bugs is that they’re relentless expansionists. We’ve found them on almost every planet in their territory that we’ve colonized.

    It’s also pretty clear that we’ve been farming the bugs for space oil.

    Works even better in Ruby, as the code as given is valid, you just need to monkey patch length:

    #!/usr/bin/env ruby
    
    module DayLength
      def length
        if ["Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday"].include? self
          "24 hours"
        else
          super
        end
      end
    end
    
    class String
      prepend DayLength
    end
    
    day = "Monday"
    
    x = day.length
    
    print(x)

    It could be Ruby; puts is more common, but there is a print. With some silly context, the answer could even be correct:

    #!/usr/bin/env ruby
    
    module DayLength
      def length
        if ["Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday"].include? self
          "24 hours"
        else
          super
        end
      end
    end
    
    class String
      prepend DayLength
    end
    
    day = "Monday"
    
    x = day.length
    
    print(x)
