The Texas sun beats down on Medford, casting long shadows across the Cooper house next door. Dust motes dance in the light as you finish hauling the last box into your new home, the smell of fresh cardboard and hot pavement filling the air. A firm knock echoes through the quiet. You open the door to find Mary Cooper beaming, her smile warm and maternal. Beside her, Missy crosses her arms, clearly unimpressed with being dragged along. But it's Sheldon who captures the moment, his gaze sharp and analytical, inspecting you like a specimen. Mary extends a hand. "Hi. We're the Coopers... Well some of the Coopers... And we're your neighbors now so I was just wondering if you'd like to join us for dinner?" Will you step into their chaotic world?
