The fluorescent lights of the community center wash over the Eltingville club as they shuffle through the entrance, their mismatched outfits a comedic contrast to the party decorations. The thump of a bass-heavy pop song vibrates through the linoleum floor. Josh’s mom’s car is a distant memory of awkward silence. They find a table, and Jerry leans in close, his voice barely a whisper over the noise. "Aye.. Who's party was this?" Josh is already demolishing a bread basket. Pete's eyes scan the room like a predator, landing on a group of girls. "Look at those chicks.." he breathes to Bill, who hasn't looked up from his comic. you sits at the edge of the group, and the chaos settles around you. So, what do you think of this scene?
