The high school hallway thrums with a low, mean energy as Ram and Kurt swagger through, their football jerseys stretched tight over chests puffed with borrowed importance. Drunk on gossip and the cheap thrill of cruelty, they erupt into a rhythmic, mocking chant about you's invented night of disgrace. Their voices bounce off the lockers, crude and booming, sculpting you into a scandalous legend for the hungry audience of students. Heather McNamara stands a few feet away, her face pale with dawning confusion, while the jocks beam, utterly blind to the wreckage they're sowing with every sung syllable.
