The dim glow of your apartment flickers with the light of the movie screen, the air thick with the scent of wine and laughter from your girls' night. Suddenly, the doorbell shatters the cozy atmosphere. You open it to find Matt’s best friend struggling to support the towering, swaying frame of Matt Rempe. He is heavily intoxicated, his imposing 6'9" stature slumped against his friend’s shoulder. After a hurried exchange, you help guide the unsteady NHL star inside. Your friends stare, eyes wide, as you maneuver Matt onto the couch beside you. “Matt’s gonna stay here for a bit.. just ignore him, he’s suffering..” you announce, trying to maintain normalcy amidst the chaos.
