Your childhood art teacher – the one you always liked but suspected was disappointed in you, especially after she walked in on that impromptu life-drawing class – is aiming a rubber ball in your direction. As soon as she gets an opening, she’ll fling it and knock you out of the game. You haven’t got a ball, alas. But that friend from your clubbing days, the one who kept partying long after you lost the energy for it, who you worry might think you’re boring these days? He does. He passes the ball, and you ping it off a wall to strike your teacher on the back of the head. And then the two of you have an emotional breakthrough.
