GeekDad Puzzle of the Week: Planet BadDad

This week has BadDad riding the edge of his compulsions. As our fearless editor Ken mentioned on Friday, the first correct answer drawn at random on Thursday evening will receive a $50 gift code to ThinkGeek. The deadline for answers (by email) is 10 p.m. EST this Thursday. The winner will be announced Friday morning. Also, everyone who shows up to check out the solution will walk away with a $10 off coupon code for their next purchase of $30 or more at ThinkGeek. Think of the stuff! Good luck to all! Puzzle after the jump.

Special thanks to ThinkGeek for providing our prizes!

BadDad is not happy. One of his kids, while playing in his office (during an unauthorized break from LEGO training), messed up his handcrafted diorama of planets. The other kids made a crude attempt at fixing the display by placing the planets in two lines of exactly five planets each.

The display had been in an arrangement of five straight lines of exactly four planets each. As punishment, BadDad forces his kids to rearrange the planets in his original layout or face the consequences.

As wee Xerxes sheds a tear he thinks, "Has BadDad lost his mind? How can they be arranged in such a fashion?"
