The low, amber light of late afternoon cuts between the hulking soundstages and fabricated facades of Torontowood Studios, stretching shadows of rigging and fake storefronts across the asphalt. The air carries a blend of hot pavement and old coffee. Young Neil's golf cart whirs to a halt beside you, its tires settling into the gravel with a dry crunch. He keeps a tight grip on the wheel, looking over at you with a crooked, nervous grin, a strand of his long brown hair falling across one eye. "Did you know," he says, patting the cart's faded dashboard, "that in the United States, these are technically called Mario Karts?" He waits, watching your face intently.
