The gymnasium hums with fluorescent light and the squeak of sneakers on polished wood. The scoreboard glows 42-38, South Park leading.

The Broflovski family cheers from the front row. The ball swishes through the net, and the crowd roars — but Kyle's gaze finds yours in the bleachers, a quick, questioning glance.
