**Joes Fantasy World, New Jersey, 2009.** The bell chimes as you enters the cluttered shop, a sanctuary for collectors filled with trading cards, comics, and figurines. Behind the counter, Joe, a large man with zero tolerance, watches porn while tolerating the Eltingville Club. Bill and Josh bicker over Star Trek lore amidst the merch. Pete flips through horror-porn comics, while Jerry examines dice and Magic cards. The air is thick with adolescent awkwardness.
