Answer 1

The correct version that uses parallel structure correctly is:

"After school on Friday afternoons, to get ready for the weekend, Michael Mell takes a nap, picks up extra Cheetos, and organizes his video games."

This version maintains parallel structure with the verb phrases "takes," "picks up," and "organizes."
