Game night is going to be epic! Sam will never know what hit him! I’ve been practicing!

young men playing games, one of them shouting angrily

young men playing games, one of them frowning

young men talking

Sam, are you OK? You don’t usually use words like that?

young men, one of them angry

Losing just makes me so mad sometimes!

young men talking and remembering

I know. We’ve been friends a long time.

young men talking

That’s how I know you don’t normally talk like that. I don’t think it’s the real you, you know?

young men talking

You’re right. Thanks for looking out for me.

Anytime! But I’m still gonna cream you in this game!
