\u201cHYPO\u201d ASSIGNMENT
\nTORT\/RISK MANAGEMENT\/AGENCY
\nDue 11:59 p.m., Sunday, October 9, 2022
\nIt\u2019s been the lifelong dream of LC to open his own combination man-made wakesurf lake
\nand artisan grocery, and when he moves from San Antonio to the landlocked Dallas area,
\nhe decides he\u2019s in the perfect market and the time is right. He decides that, to set his place
\napart from all the other lake-and-grocery-store businesses in the country, he\u2019s actually
\ngoing to situate the store on a makeshift island, surrounding it with a circular lake that not
\nonly features prime wakesurfing but also a vibrant ecosystem featuring an eclectic mix of
\ncoral reef and marine life.
\nAfter being talked out of calling his business \u201cMan-Made Wakesurf Lake & Artisan
\nGrocery,\u201d LC decides to call it \u201cWakeLake & Corn Flakes\u201d (though he plans to shorthand
\nit \u201cThe Flake\u201d on social media and hopes that catches on).
\nAlthough there are some finishing touches to be made before construction is complete,
\nLC can\u2019t wait any longer and makes plans to hold a Grand Opening for the Flake. He
\nchooses the date. He alerts the local media. He lines up a dude in a sushi costume named
\nPM to throw out a ceremonial first pitch to kick off the day\u2019s festivities.
\nBut that\u2019s not enough. LC feels he needs a bigger draw that day. Something to pull
\npeople in, to make headlines and trend on TikTok. To put the Flake on the map from the
\njump.
\nAfter slightly less than a minute and a half of deep thought, LC decides to put on a
\ncombination wakesurf\/\u201cSupermarket Sweep\u201d-type exhibition \u2014 a dual-sport event of
\nsorts that he\u2019ll call The 360 \u2014 and that will, unsurprisingly, be the first of its kind. In it,
\ncontestants will complete a handful of wakesurfing tricks and then, once inside the
\ngrocery store, race to fill a shopping cart with an item from each of the five food groups.
\nThe winner, aside from an inevitable star turn on social media, will get a $1,000 shopping
\nspree at the Flake and a wakesurfing vest that says \u201cGet Flaky!\u201d on it.
\nOverwhelmed with excitement for the potential of his new business and his invented
\nsport, LC decides he\u2019ll need a grandstand for the Grand Opening so the hundreds of guests
\nsure to attend will have a place to comfortably watch The 360 from the island-side shore
\nof the lake just outside the grocery store structure. Figuring he won\u2019t need the rows of
\nbleachers for everyday operations once the Flake is fully open for business, though, he
\ndoesn\u2019t want to invest heavily in the setup.
\nSo to help cover the cost for the temporary seating, LC negotiates a contract with a local
\nfly fishing business called \u201cFly Fishing AF\u201d to be the title sponsor of The 360. The owner
\nof Fly Fishing AF, a college football player named MBaer, asks if he can perform at
\nhalftime of the event in some undetermined way. At first, LC balks at the idea because
\nhe\u2019s not really sure yet whether The 360 will even have a halftime \u2014 but when MBaer
\noffers to add an extra $1,000 to his sponsorship fee, LC agrees . . . on one condition. He
\nadds an indemnification clause in the contract that says if anyone is injured as a result of
\nMBaer\u2019s halftime performance, MBaer will indemnify LC and the Flake for any resulting
\ndamages \u2014 meaning MBaer will be solely responsible for those damages and LC and
\nThe Flake will not be responsible at all.
\n\u201cWhat could go wrong??\u201d MBaer thinks to himself. He\u2019s fine with the indemnification
\nclause and signs the sponsorship contract. LC promptly sends out a press release
\nannouncing the Grand Opening of WakeLake & Corn Flakes, highlighted by the world
\npremiere introduction of what is sure to be the next big sport in America: The 360,
\npresented by Fly Fishing AF. Various news and social media outlets report it right away.
\nRR sees the social media posts and \u2014 after her first thought: \u201cI sure loves me a good
\ngrocery store!\u201d \u2014 she remembers that her friends were trying to get her to learn how to
\nwakesurf not long ago (she\u2019s already an accomplished rower). Seduced by visions of that
\nshopping spree at the Flake, RR checks the makeshift WakeLake & Corn Flakes website
\n(tagline: \u201cWakey, wakey, eggs and bakey! The Flake \u2014 Your number one surfin\u2019 turf!!\u201d)
\nand finds out tickets to the Grand Opening are already on sale. RR takes advantage of the
\n\u201cHang 5\u201d promotion \u2014 the tickets are buy-four-get-one-free if you agree to compete in
\nThe 360, which for RR is an easy sell \u2014 and she buys a ticket for herself as well as her
\nrowing buddies SA, EL, and CMur, as well as their pal JSm, who loves to shop.
\n(EL quietly reaches out to WakeLake & Corn Flakes to see if they\u2019re planning to perform
\nthe National Anthem at the Grand Opening, because she\u2019d like to offer her services if so.
\n\u201cWe are now!\u201d LC happily tells her.)
\nWhen the day arrives, RR, SA, EL, CMur, and JSm load up in RR\u2019s car (along with a
\nwakesurfing skim board that JSm found online and bought for RR), and the five of them
\nhit the road. Although the Grand Opening is scheduled for 1:00, RR insists they get there
\nearly so she can get a sneak peek at the grocery store before reporting for The 360. They
\npull into the parking lot just outside the man-made lake at about 10 a.m., only to find that
\nthey\u2019re far from the only people who couldn\u2019t wait to get to the Flake that morning. The
\ntailgating scene is overwhelming.
\nAs RR, SA, EL, CMur, and JSm get out of the car, they see two beverage stands. One is
\na permanent structure with both the Flake and Fly Fishing AF logos, situated on a grassy
\nmedian between parking aisles. It gives every appearance that it is part of the WakeLake
\n& Corn Flakes operation.
\nThe other beverage stand, which (improperly) occupies a handicapped parking space,
\nlooks like it was set up that day out of plywood and duct tape and has a poster in front
\nthat says, in scribbled marker: \u201cCOVID-Proof Drunk Tank.\u201d Leaning against the
\nmakeshift beer stand is another poster board, this one bearing the photo of a local college
\nfootball player named CCam along with the following handwritten ad copy:
\nWhen CCam snares a one-handed grab over the middle, it\u2019s scoreboard time.
\nWhen he\u2019s off the gridiron, he double-fists sweet brewski\u2019s from COVID-Proof
\nDrunk Tank! Roll your coverage on over here for today\u2019s WakeLake & Corn

\nprobably used toothpick in it)
\n\u2022 \u201cPick Six\u201d (when five beers just isn\u2019t enough!)

\n\u2022 \u201cThree and Out\u201d (three of our most poorly brewed stouts)
\n\u2022 \u201cThe WakeBoard\u201d (get your morning started right with the perfect wake-me-up
\n\u2014 a Bellini along with a charcuterie board heavy on allegedly cured meats and
\nbeer nut remnants; I would absolutely discourage anyone from buying this, even
\nif you buy enough beer to wash it down)
\n\u2022 \u201cSurf & Turf\u201d (my experimental IPA pairs nicely with a mess of U-12 scallops
\nand a 16-ounce ribeye [*scallops and ribeye not included])
\n\u2022 \u201cCollapse the Pocket\u201d (not sure if the Flake will let you bring beer in? no sweat,
\nBoss \u2014 I\u2019ll pour it in your jeans!)
\n\u2022 \u201cIllegal Bock in the Back\u201d (I can\u2019t put these on display but if you want a Shiner
\nthat the FDA won\u2019t approve for public consumption, I got you!)

\n\u2022 \u201cOffensive Pass Interference\u201d (gluten-heavy IPA infused with chewing gum; I
\ndon\u2019t recommend this but, hey, you do you)

\n\u2022 \u201c40-Second Play Clock\u201d (down a 40 in 40 seconds and get 40 refills free [*or
\nuntil you pass out])
\n\u2022 \u201cIce the Kicker\u201d (sorry, never mind, I forgot to bring ice)
\n\u2022 \u201cFree Safety\u201d (don\u2019t have contact info for Uber or Lyft? you\u2019ve come to the right
\nplace!)
\n\u2022 \u201cLate Hit\u201d (come see me as you\u2019re leaving today and I\u2019ll beer you)
\n\u2022 \u201cFrosted Flakes\u201d (I stole some corn flakes from inside the store and dumped
\nthem into a frosted mug but couldn\u2019t finish them; want some?)
\n\u2022 \u201cCorona Virus\u201d (4-for-1 Corona\u2019s)
\nIt\u2019s time to get \u201cblitzed,\u201d thirsty wakesurfing grocery store people! Don\u2019t
\nget your day off to a \u201cfalse start\u201d! Come \u201cflip a coin\u201d at COVID-Proof
\nDrunk Tank, get yourself flagged for \u201cintentional pounding,\u201d and sack the
\ncompetition, Broseph!! (And hey, be sure to make me your \u201ccomeback
\nroute\u201d all day!!! Make this a Grand Opening extravaganza you\u2019ll quickly
\nforget!!!!)
\nThere is one man, who calls himself \u201cTank,\u201d working at the COVID-Proof Drunk Tank
\nbeer stand. He wears a dad hat that says \u201cTank\u201d and a jelly-donut-stained tank top marked
\nwith a \u201cCPDT\u201d logo in sloppy chicken scratch.
\nCCam \u2014 who does not drink \u2014 previously told his agent HZ (who signed a
\nrepresentation agreement with CCam without warning CCam that it could void his
\neligibility to continue playing football collegiately) that HZ was explicitly not permitted
\nto make deals on CCam\u2019s behalf with any business involved in the sale of alcohol. When
\nCCam learned months ago that HZ was nonetheless negotiating a sponsorship with
\nCOVID-Proof Drunk Tank, CCam fired HZ. After that, HZ struck a deal with COVIDProof Drunk Tank anyway, authorizing Tank to include CCam on his marketing signage.
\n(COVID-Proof Drunk Tank did not secure permission independently from CCam to use
\nhis name or image on its signs.)
\nAs RR, SA, EL, CMur, and JSm approach the two beverage stands, a man named 7&7
\nstumbles up to the Flake\/Fly Fishing AF beverage stand and asks for a Tequila Sunrise.
\nThe bartender, EM, tells 7&7 that he doesn\u2019t have any orange juice. 7&7 looks up at the
\nmenu and mumbles, \u201cOK, let\u2019s see, what can I get to help me keep up this buzz . . . \u201d
\nEM \u2014 who has already sold 7&7 three Bailey\u2019s coffees throughout the morning and
\nknows he\u2019s been buying drinks at COVID-Proof Drunk Tank as well \u2014 hears him and
\nsays: \u201cSir, you\u2019ve been drinking since 8:00 this morning. No more.\u201d A Flake security
\nguard\/lifeguard named TS escorts 7&7 about 10 feet away. 7&7 then walks over to
\nCOVID-Proof Drunk Tank and asks for a beer.
\nTank says: \u201cSir, you\u2019ve been drinking since 8:00 this morning. How about two spiked
\njuice boxes for the price of one?\u201d
\n7&7 buys four spiked juice boxes for the price of two and shotguns a couple while still at
\nthe stand. Then, as he turns to walk away, his feet get tangled together and he starts to
\nfall right in SA\u2019s path. She trips over 7&7 and lands hard on the pavement and, it appears,
\nshe loses consciousness. TS \u2014 even though he\u2019s certified as a lifeguard in CPR and first
\naid \u2014 sees all of this but turns back to watch an SMU football hype video playing on a
\nloop on a TV screen inside the Flake\/Fly Fishing AF beverage stand.
\nA throng of tailgaters rushes to gather around SA, and someone asks if there\u2019s a doctor in
\nthe crowd. \u201cI\u2019m not,\u201d shout SB, EH, and ES in unison.
\n\u201cBut I\u2019m studying to be a pediatrician,\u201d SB proclaims.
\n\u201cAnd I\u2019m going to be an orthopedic Physician Helpant,\u201d EH announces.
\n\u201cI\u2019m going to be a better Physician Helpant than you!\u201d ES insists.
\nAll three, once again in unison: \u201cPlease make some room.\u201d
\n(Even though she\u2019s planning on medical school herself, RR is callously unaffected by her
\nfriend\u2019s plight, busy instead dreaming about fresh herbs and the pasta aisle.)
\nAs EH and ES continue to argue about their P.A. potential, SB rushes up and kneels next
\nto SA, who is not responsive. SB turns back to the crowd assembled around them. \u201cDoes
\nanyone have any water?!\u201d she yells. Nobody responds. She sees one bystander holding
\nan open Ozarka bottle that looks to be nearly full. SB grabs the water bottle, props SA
\ninto a sitting position, and pours several ounces into her mouth.
\nOnly it isn\u2019t water. The bystander, slurring his words, mumbles: \u201cDude, that was straight
\nvodka.\u201d
\nSA snaps into consciousness and, perhaps shocked by the alcohol that she just guzzled,
\nwhips her head out of SB\u2019s hands and slams her own body back against the pavement.
\nSA suffers a broken left wrist and a gash on her face. SB goes to her car to grab a Velcro
\nsplint for SA (and she quickly writes up a bill for her services to give to SA).
\nStill immersed in a gourmet-cheese-and-pumpkin-pita reverie, RR continues to walk
\naway from SA and her other friends. As she does so, she notices a dark storm cloud
\ngathering. But she doesn\u2019t give it a second thought, since she\u2019d seen a weather forecast
\nthat predicted a threat of severe thunderstorms in the area but not until the evening, by
\nwhich time she imagines the festivities will be over and she\u2019ll be back home.
\nThere is nobody manning the ferry boats in place to transport guests to the island this
\nearly, so RR whips out her skim board and, having no idea how to wakesurf, sits on the
\nboard (careful to avoid the fins) and rows across the lake with her arms. Dreaming about
\nespresso beans and sourdough, she hardly notices that she skins up both of her hands on
\ncoral reef during her row to the shore.
\nOnce RR lands on the island, she notices that one of the grocery store\u2019s front doors is
\ncracked open. She peeks in and sees several workers carrying boxes toward the front.
\nRR slowly pulls the door open, just enough for her to slip inside. An event usher named
\nBS sees her and looks startled, as it\u2019s only 10:30 and the doors aren\u2019t supposed to open
\nuntil 1:00. BS (who is wearing a cap that says \u201cThe Flake\u201d on it) looks around and sees
\nthat there are still boxes strewn all over the place, extension cords across the floor that are
\nplugged into lanterns that were positioned all over the facility as the setup crews worked
\novernight (LC didn\u2019t want to go to the considerable expense of keeping all the grocery
\nstore lights on all night), and a huge spill of something in the corner that folks will have
\nto pass to get to the area where The 360 race will finish.
\nAfter surveying the shaky state of preparations, BS tiptoes up to RR and says, \u201cHey there!
\nCome on in!\u201d
\nBS reaches down into one of the boxes stacked near the front of the store and pulls out
\nthe promotional giveaway for the day\u2019s festivities: a miniature wakesurf board with a
\ndeck made of titanium steel and fins coated in chrome. The board says \u201cThe Flake!\u201d
\nacross the deck, with a \u201cSkinner F.C.\u201d logo underneath it.
\nThe mini-surfboards are a big draw. SS, a potato skin tycoon (\u201cSkinner\u2019s Skins\u201d) who is
\nin the process of purchasing a D-3 English football club and is looking for opportunities
\nto market his brand, learned recently of a product recall on the boards due to a
\nmanufacturing defect that caused them to catch on fire at speeds of more than 2 mph, not
\nto mention a design defect: the nose of the board was, for some reason, serrated and sharp
\nto the touch. He reached out to \u201cBoard Silly,\u201d the company that manufactured the
\ndefective surfboards, and asked if he could buy what he assumed was worthless inventory
\nfrom the recall, thinking they would give him a cool and unique way to advertise his
\nfootball club as a giveaway. Board Silly saw an opportunity to salvage its junk stash (and
\nmarket its own brand at the same time) but, in a moment of clarity and conscientiousness,
\ndecided to sell them to SS only after he assured them that his plan was to market the
\nboards strictly as souvenirs. Satisfied that the boards would do no more harm, Board Silly
\nsold thousands of the recalled products to SS.
\nBut once SS figured out after handing the Skinner F.C. boards out at several potato skin
\nconventions as well as his new fleet of food trucks that they were in high demand, he
\nbegan selling them. Sales of the boards now finance Skinner\u2019s Skins\u2019 food truck
\noperations. When LC approached SS with the idea of funding a surfboard giveaway for
\nthe Flake Grand Opening, SS jumped at the opportunity since it would mean the Skinner
\nF.C. logo would end up on bookshelves all over the Dallas area (but hopefully not in kids\u2019
\nplayrooms) and all over Instagram.
\nRR happily takes a mini-surfboard from BS and asks where she should go to register for
\nThe 360. BS shrugs his shoulders but points RR toward the frozen section.
\nJust then, the front doors fly open and hundreds of people start flooding
\ninto the grocery store. Many ambush BS and other ushers near the
\nentrance to get their giveaway surfboards. Others (at least those who
\navoid wiping out on the mystery spill) zip toward the 360 finish line to
\nget a good spot. Some are instead drawn to the Ancho Pesto Salted
\nMozzarella (APSM) samples. A few are forced to duck as PM, the sushisuited guy, winds up and aimlessly fires the ceremonial first pitch to no
\none in particular.
\nAs a swarm of people rush past RR (who had stopped on her way to the
\nfrozen aisle to admire the oat, coconut, and almond milk offerings in the
\nrefrigerated section), several of them trip over an extension cord and
\nknock her to the ground. As she stretches an arm out to break her fall, one of the lanterns
\nis kicked toward her and she manages to avoid it with that hand \u2014 but the titanium board
\nin her other hand strikes the lantern and shatters it and the bulb inside it into a thousand
\npieces. One thick shard of glass lodges just above RR\u2019s heel. She\u2019s pretty sure she\u2019s
\nruptured her Achilles tendon and is crushed that she\u2019s not going to be able to wakesurf
\ntoday \u2014 or lovingly race through the grocery store to 360 glory.
\nFrom 45 meters away, another usher named MK sees RR crumpled to the floor and begins
\nto triple-jump her way toward RR . . . hopping over a pile of empty boxes that once
\ncontained titanium mini-surfboards . . . skipping over a huddled-up group of shoppers
\nmesmerized by the hummus selection . . . and jumping over waves of customers running
\nand skidding throughout the store . . . until she reaches RR.
\n\u201cHi, there,\u201d she says to an embarrassed RR. \u201cYou OK?\u201d
\n\u201cNot really,\u201d RR replies, noticing MK\u2019s \u201cThe Flake\u201d cap and quickly drying her eyes.
\n\u201cJust a little clumsy, I guess. I didn\u2019t notice all the people running because I was
\ncaptivated by all your non-dairy options. I sure loves me a good grocery store, you know.\u201d
\nMK politely nods and offers to take RR in a golf cart to the lakeshore so she can take her
\nseat in the grandstand bleachers for the wakesurfing portion of The 360. After they get
\noutside and to the bleachers, MK checks RR\u2019s ticket and eases her to her seat, which is
\nfortunately on the bottom row of the grandstand. CMur and JSm are already in their seats,
\ntelling RR that SA suggested they go ahead while she got her wrist and the gash on her
\nface bandaged up. But they don\u2019t know where EL is. RR leaves a couple empty seats
\nbetween her and CMur and JSm, and she texts SA and EL to see where they are. Neither
\nresponds.
\nAs she looks up from her phone, RR notices DMo, a woman down the row from her,
\nwearing a Houston Astros cap. RR has an urge to hassle DMo about how the Astros
\ndisgraced the game of baseball by using video cameras to steal catchers\u2019 signs, but then a
\nbetter idea occurs to her. Just feet away from the corner of the grandstand where she\u2019s
\nseated, RR sees a large metal trash can. On the trash can is the \u201cFlake\u201d logo and the words
\n\u201cDO NOT REMOVE.\u201d
\nRR ignores her pain and reaches her mini-surfboard toward the trash can and lugs it back
\ntoward her, placing it in SA\u2019s still-empty seat next to her \u2014 and then starts banging on
\nthe trash can with the giveaway board, hoping DMo will turn toward her and catch the
\nfull brunt of her stepped-up heckle game.
\nBecause the doors opened much sooner than planned and customers are now milling all
\nthroughout the grocery store and have filled up the grandstand at the lake, LC decides to
\nstart The 360 early. A local sports reporter named LMc has brought a camera crew with
\nher to file a story on the unveiling of this brand new watersport. With the accelerated
\nstart announced, LMc\u2019s crew (all of whom are UFC fighters) scrambles to get set up along
\nthe lakeshore.
\nEveryone is asked to stand for the National Anthem, but RR doesn\u2019t hear the
\nannouncement over her trash can cacophony and, sitting in the front row, doesn\u2019t notice
\npeople behind her rising to their feet. Meanwhile, as RR keeps her little percussion
\nconcert going, a duo walks out onto a slender but lengthy platform that extends from the
\nshore into the lake: it\u2019s her friend EL along with a guy named MS. To CMur\u2019s and JSm\u2019s
\nsurprise (but not RR\u2019s, as she doesn\u2019t even realize what\u2019s happening), EL is there to sing
\nthe Anthem \u2014 which she leads into with her trusty rendition of \u201cIce Ice Baby\u201d \u2014
\naccompanied by MS dropping hip-hop and dance beats, a performance made even more
\nunique by the fact that LC insisted that MS drop his beats while balancing on one of the
\npromotional wakesurf boards. He begrudgingly agreed to do it to get the viral social
\nmedia exposure that this extraordinary opportunity is sure to provide.
\nSA, with her left wrist splinted from the parking lot incident, finally reaches the bleachers
\nand looks confused when she spots RR \u2014 because there seems to be a trash can in what
\nshe assumes is supposed to be her seat. RR, who doesn\u2019t notice that SA is ambling
\ntowards her, continues to gleefully bang on the trash can, fully oblivious to what\u2019s going
\non around her or on the platform. Fans all around RR are whisper-shouting at her to stop
\nbut she doesn\u2019t hear them.
\nIt\u2019s too much to take for EN, a professional soccer player seated 50 feet away. Enraged
\nthat RR is disrespecting the National Anthem, he takes the soccer ball that he carries
\naround with him and bicycle-kicks it toward RR, who is still locked in on her sweet trash
\ncan music and doesn\u2019t see the ball bearing in on her.
\nThe ball narrowly misses RR but grazes a nearby fan named MBish in the shoulder, not
\ninjuring MBish but startling him so much that he impulsively hurls his own promotional
\nboard into the air. It strikes SA as she\u2019s shuffling toward her seat, reopening the gash on
\nher face and sending her tumbling into another attendee, ZP, which causes SA to fall to
\nthe ground and break her right wrist \u2014 the one she didn\u2019t break in the parking lot minutes
\nearlier. RR is startled out of her trance by SA\u2019s groans and she spins around, reflexively
\nwedging the serrated nose of her giveaway surfboard into the trash can. The loud piercing
\nof metal through metal gives way to MS\u2019s fadeout beat as he and EL finish the memorable
\nAnthem.
\nSA looks to RR for help, but all RR can think to say is, \u201cTwo wrist injuries, huh? Dude,
\nthat sucks! Want me to go inside and buy you a matcha green tea? I sure loves me a good
\ngrocery store!\u201d
\nDisgusted by RR\u2019s insensitivity and still in pain, SA staggers away from the grandstand
\nto find some medical help and mimics her friend\u2019s ode to supermarkets with the little
\nFrench that she knows: \u201cJe m’aime bien une bonne \u00e9picerie . . .\u201d There\u2019s no Flake
\npersonnel in sight, nor anyone who appears to be acting in a security or paramedic
\ncapacity, but another attendee, JK, perks up when he hears his native French language
\nand offers to help. He fashions a tourniquet out of his giveaway surfboard and a plastic
\ngrocery bag in an attempt to stabilize SA\u2019s right wrist, but in doing so he accidentally
\nstabs SA\u2019s right knee with the serrated edge of the board.
\nSA hobbles away, and passes two hockey players, CMa and JV, who are limbering up
\nand trash-talking as they get ready for the wakesurfing portion of The 360. Neither has
\never wakesurfed, but all their years on skates have them convinced they can handle the
\nwater on boards \u2014 plus they\u2019re both huge fans of \u201cSupermarket Sweep\u201d and can\u2019t wait
\nto rifle carts full of pulled pork, brown rice, and cheddar jack through the grocery store
\naisles to victory.
\nIt\u2019s clear that CMa and JV don\u2019t like each other, and shortly after SA walks by, she sees
\nCMa body-check JV into the ground and break JV\u2019s collarbone. ZP, who\u2019s trying to
\nchase SA down to see if she\u2019s OK after the chain of events that EN\u2019s soccer ball set off
\nhad knocked SA into him, is in no mood to see any more nonsense. He sees CMa level
\nJV, too, and has had enough. ZP runs up behind CMa and bulldozes him, causing CMa
\nto tear a meniscus and ACL (and costing him a lucrative endorsement deal with MBaer\u2019s
\nFly Fishing AF business).
\nAs EL and MS walk off the lake platform at the conclusion of the Anthem, a talent agent
\nnamed CD decides to approach the pair and explain how he can help their careers explode
\nif they\u2019ll just hire him to represent them.
\nAs he heads in EL and MS\u2019s direction, CD is distracted by a banner hung on a couple
\npoles alongside the lake that once read:
\nBE COGNIZANT OF CHILLY OR INCLEMENT WEATHER,
\nWATCH FOR POISONOUS PUFFER FISH
\n. . . AND BEWARE OF SURFBOARD WRECKS!
\nLC had the banner made when he first came up with the idea for The Flake, but the sign
\nwas exposed daily to sun and rain for weeks. By time the Grand Opening arrives, unless
\nyou are close up, the weather-beaten banner can only be read to say:
\nBE COGNIZANT OF CHILLY OR INCLEMENT WEATHER,
\nWATCH FOR POISONOUS PUFFER FISH
\n. . . AND BEWARE OF SURFBOARD WRECKS!
\nIt gives CD an idea \u2014 to tell EL and MS he can land them acting gigs in the next Nacho
\nFries movie trailer . . . even though CD and his agency have absolutely no connections
\nwith Taco Bell or the marketing firm that produces and casts its commercials.
\nAs CD rehearses the pitch in his head while walking toward EL and MS, he fails to notice
\na UFC duffel bag that LMc\u2019s crew left on the ground in their haste to set things up for her
\nstand-up. CD trips over the bag and wipes out, spraining his left ankle. Spotting the easy
\nprey, one of the UFC fighters runs up to CD with visions of a lethal stomp kick, but CD
\nmanages to roll over just in time to avoid disaster.
\nFull of fight-or-flight adrenaline and determined to land the new clients he has his eyes
\nset on, CD scrambles to his feet and keeps hustling toward EL and MS, ignoring the pain
\nin his ankle. He catches up with them, hands them a business card, and says he can get
\nthem cast in a Taco Bell ad. They both look at CD like he\u2019s crazy, so he shifts gears.
\n\u201cHow about if can get you two booked as the opening act on Adele\u2019s next North American
\ntour?\u201d This may or may not be possible, as CD has tried recruiting Adele for years as a
\npotential client but without success. Still, CD believes that if he can land rising stars like
\nEL and MS to support Adele on tour, he might be able to get a job with her boyfriend
\nRich Paul\u2019s agency Klutch Sports (he wants to pitch the addition of starting up both
\nmusical talent and pickleball branches at the agency).
\nMS is very interested once CD brings up the Adele possibility (mainly for the Klutch
\nSports connection, as MS is an aspiring agent himself), but EL humbly declines the
\nproposal, suggesting she doesn\u2019t think she\u2019s ready at this stage of her career to be on the
\nsame bill as an act as distinguished as Adele. (Vanilla Ice? Different story.) CD, who is
\nonly interested in MS as a client if he can sign EL up as well, pivots again and tells EL
\nand MS he has another high-profile opportunity that\u2019s sure to boost their career just as
\nmuch, if not more so: CD says he can get EL and MS guest spots on \u201cThe Masked IceIce-Baby-Vocalist-Accompanied-by-Hip-Hop-Beatmaker-on-a-Wakesurf-Board,\u201d a new
\nreality series in development that will challenge celebrity panelists to guess which fully
\ndisguised \u201cIce Ice Baby\u201d vocalist accompanied by a hip-hop beatmaker performing on a
\nwakesurf board is playing for them on live TV.
\nEL, not interested in the gimmick idea, rejects this idea as well. CD, knowing it would
\nboost his career significantly to be able to say that he got EL and MS a gig on \u201cThe
\nMasked Ice-Ice-Baby-Vocalist-Accompanied-by-Hip-Hop-Beatmaker-on-a-WakesurfBoard,\u201d ignores EL\u2019s snub and starts to text the casting director for the show, assuring
\nher that he has lined EL and MS up to perform.
\nLC can feel the energy in the crowd as The 360 is about to get underway. The venue is
\npacked; his dream has become an instant sensation. Just then, the foreman of the Flake
\nset-up crew walks over to LC and tells him his guys got a couple jobs mixed up and
\naccidentally stocked the man-made wakesurf lake with several species of shark that were
\ninstead supposed to be delivered to a local aquarium. The foreman offers to undo his
\nerror but says it would take him up to four hours.
\nLC knows he can\u2019t announce a four-hour delay and expect to keep all these potential new
\ncustomers around, plus he knows the postponement is what would end up going viral.
\nBut the wakesurfers aren\u2019t ready to go. He shoves the foreman into the shark-filled lake
\nand grabs a microphone.
\n\u201cWelcome to WakeLake & Corn Flakes!\u201d The crowd (much of which had been
\nextensively fueled up at COVID-Proof Drunk Tank before the Flake opened that day)
\nresponds with frenzied cheers, many waving their promotional surfboards overhead.
\n\u201cThe 360 exhibition, presented by Fly Fishing AF \u2014 the first-ever wakesurfing\/grocery
\nstore race event of its kind \u2014 will get going shortly. But first, we have a super-special
\ntreat for you all. Please welcome MBaer, founder of Fly Fishing AF, who will electrify
\nus with . . . \u201d
\nLC looks around for MBaer, to try and make eye contact and quickly figure out what
\nMBaer had planned for the halftime performance they\u2019d agreed to. LC doesn\u2019t see him
\nanywhere.
\n\u201c . . . something so cool that it can\u2019t even be put into words. Sit tight and prepare to have
\nyour minds blown!\u201d
\nThe crowd is fired up.
\nLC scampers away, desperate to find MBaer and tell him that his halftime act \u2014 whatever
\nthat\u2019s going to be \u2014 has been accelerated. It\u2019s showtime.
\nHe finally spots MBaer inside the grocery store, perusing the seafood counter for anything
\nhe can use as live bait (a highly unconventional move for a fly fisher) for the jaw-dropping
\nexhibition he has planned for his halftime act. LC whisks MBaer away and explains that
\nthe plan has changed: he needs MBaer to entertain the crowd right away. \u201cCool,\u201d MBaer
\nsays, as the seafood specialist hands him a bag of baby shrimp. \u201cHere\u2019s what I thought I
\nwould do\u2014\u201d
\nLC interrupts him. \u201cIt doesn\u2019t matter, man. Just go!\u201d
\nMBaer heads outside to the lake, lugging his fly fishing gear (and bag of shrimp) over one
\nshoulder and a promotional wakesurf board over the other. As he walks out onto the
\nplatform that extends over the water, the increasingly restless crowd cheers.
\n\u201cHey, y\u2019all!\u201d he shouts, immersed in the vibe. \u201cI\u2019m MBaer, of Fly Fishing AF, where we
\ndon\u2019t need no goofy little fly lures. We use the real thing! Ready to see me and these
\nlittle shrimp dudes fire off a steeple cast?\u201d
\nThere are question marks silently hanging over the hundreds in the crowd, none of whom
\nhave ever heard of a steeple cast. Or of fly fishing.
\nMBaer is undeterred. \u201cLet\u2019s GOOOOOOOO!!\u201d he roars, reenergizing the crowd.
\nHe bends down to rest his giveaway board on the ground, but when he does, a few of the
\nshrimp he\u2019d bought inside the store trickle out of the bag and into the lake \u2014 where a
\nhungry tiger shark and bull shark instantly converge. When the bull shark wins the race
\nto the appetizer, the tiger shark smells the remaining contents of the bag in MBaer\u2019s hand
\nand soars out of the water in MBaer\u2019s direction.
\nThinking quickly, three people in the crowd \u2014 RH, CCah, and KA \u2014 reach back with
\ntheir wakesurf boards to launch them toward the flying shark. Unfortunately, the serrated
\nedge of RH\u2019s board catches CCah on the shoulder and tears CCah\u2019s rotator cuff. KA
\nmanages to heave his board at the shark \u2014 but the board combusts in flight, having
\neclipsed the velocity that had caused Board Silly to take the defective boards off the
\nmarket. The fiery project ( help with nursing paper writing from experts with MSN & DNP degrees)ile strikes the tiger shark in mid-air, not injuring the snackseeking fish but effectively steering it off course and away from MBaer. Some in the
\ncrowd hop to their feet and start to scurry off the grandstand.
\nUnfortunately, several of them also instinctively toss their mini-boards into the air once
\nthey see KA\u2019s catch on fire, with enough force that theirs catch fire as well. Suddenly
\nthere are smoldering mini-surfboard missiles raining throughout the grandstand.
\nBM, a college football player and anime aficionado, springs to action. He unleashes a
\nSpirit Bomb to annihilate two of the burning boards. He deploys a Shining Finger Sword
\nto wipe out another. He then Fire Fists one more board into
\noblivion, and for good measure, he modifies his own version
\nof the Full Counter by going all defensive back on the last
\nhurtling wakesurf board and decleating the promotional
\ngiveaway. It shatters into a hundred titanium shards.
\nThe good news is that BM manages to douse the flames on
\nall of the airborne boards; the bad news is the surfboard
\nshrapnel from the last one cuts LMc\u2019s chin as she\u2019s filing a
\nreport from the scene . . . covers the grandstand and the floor
\nbeneath it, causing several people running from the scene to lose their footing (including
\nCD, who was already hobbling on a sprained left ankle from his failed Nacho Fries pitch,
\nand then skids on a pile of titanium scraps and sprains his right ankle) . . . and angering
\nthe tiger shark and bull shark further.
\nSF, seeing that the sharks have been dangerously riled up, dives into the lake. Among his
\nhobbies is swimming in shark-infested waters, but until now there\u2019s never been much
\nbenefit to it. SF manages to scare the sharks off, but in the process swallows enough toxic
\nlake sludge to send him into shock.
\nThe aspiring Physician Helpants, EH and ES, both jump into the lake to rescue SF. (The
\nFlake security guard\/lifeguard TS hears the commotion from the parking lot but remains
\nglued to the SMU hype video, which he\u2019s watching for the 30th time.) EH and ES each
\ngrab one of SF\u2019s arms to pull him to shore, but they turn in different directions and, in
\ndoing so, they pop both of SF\u2019s shoulders out of socket.
\nIn the meantime, SO, an agent in the crowd, can\u2019t believe her eyes. Aside from
\nrepresenting football players, SO also happens to be an investor in a start-up professional
\nanime-style-surfboard-obliteration league called the Professional Anime-Style Surfboard
\nObliteration League. SO starts running toward BM to try and convince him to sign a
\nrepresentation agreement and give the fledgling PASSOL a try. SO is still holding the
\nserrated surfboard she was given when she arrived at the Grand Opening as she waves her
\narms wildly to get BM\u2019s attention. BM notices SO sprinting toward him and waving the
\nrazor-sharp titanium board over her head, and he assumes SO is trying to attack him. SO
\nsees the panicked look in BM\u2019s eyes and quickly assures him that she\u2019s only there to talk
\nabout a possible anime-style-surfboard-obliteration career and means no harm. SO tosses
\nthe board down but the serrated nose harpoons her own left foot, causing her to crumple
\nto the ground.
\nMeanwhile, CD notices that MBaer is standing alone on the platform, shocked at how
\nbadly his fly fishing exhibition has gone. MBaer is CD\u2019s target now. He doesn\u2019t care
\nthat MBaer is not a singer or beatmaker or that CD knows nothing about fly fishing or
\nfootball. All CD knows is that MBaer is about to be a social media phenomenon because
\nof what just happened and he wants to ride the wave.
\nOn two sprained ankles, CD staggers over to MBaer and takes his shot, asking if MBaer
\nwould be interested in getting a training camp shot with an NFL team and, if so, whether
\nhe\u2019d like an agent. MBaer said he\u2019s plenty happy playing college ball and running Fly
\nFishing AF, but he\u2019d be open to the pro opportunity if (and only if) it were with his
\nbeloved Denver Broncos (the fly fishing in Colorado is fire). He\u2019d have no interest
\notherwise.
\nAt this point, CD leans forward and whispers: \u201cHey, man, what year are you in school?\u201d
\nMBaer responds that he\u2019s a freshman. \u201cCool \u2014 I can make sure the Broncos draft you
\nthis spring,\u201d says CD, who doesn\u2019t understand NFL draft eligibility rules. \u201cI represent
\nboth their General Manager and their Director of Player Personnel in their not widely
\nknown singing and beatboxing careers.\u201d
\nMBaer is skeptical of CD\u2019s proposal but says: \u201cSure, as long as you can get me a shot
\nwith the Broncos, you can represent me.\u201d CD reaches out to shake hands, but both his
\nsprained left ankle and sprained right ankle give out and he falls to the ground, badly
\ntwisting his left knee.
\nAnother agent in the crowd, DMc, overhears the conversation. He picks up his phone and
\nstarts to dial up the GM for the Arizona Cardinals, whom he owes a favor. DMc plans to
\ntell the GM he will deliver MBaer, a defensive end, to the struggling Cardinals defense.
\nBut before DMc finishes dialing the Arizona GM\u2019s number, a flash of lightning appears
\nin the distance, 10 seconds after which there is an audible rumble of thunder. LC grabs
\nthe microphone again and announces: \u201cYo yo, my people, under NATA guidelines, we
\nare now under a weather delay. Please evacuate your seats and move either under the
\nmetal grandstand or into the grocery store. Stay tuned for further announcements on when
\nThe 360 will get underway.\u201d
\nThe few members of the crowd that hadn\u2019t already evacuated after the blazing surfboard
\nfiasco begin to retreat to the grocery store \u2014 including RR, who hops on her one good
\nAchilles tendon all the way into the building \u2014 while others camp out under the
\nbleachers.
\nFifteen minutes after the lightning-and-thunder strike that prompted the evacuation, LC
\nannounces: \u201cYou may now return to your seats. The 360 will start shortly! In the
\nmeantime, check out our \u2014 \u201d
\nBefore LC can finish the sentence, WF \u2014 who has a start-up side business called \u201cMostly
\nHollow Potato Skins & Mediocre Outdated Clothing\u201d and knows that SS, who provided
\nthe giveaway wakesurf boards, is the biggest obstacle to him surviving in the lucrative
\nappetizer market \u2014 grabs the microphone from LC and shouts to the crowd: \u201cSkinner\u2019s
\nSkins sells nothing but fake, imitation potatoes that attract mosquitos and tiger sharks!!
\nSS also owns COVID-Proof Drunk Tank!!! Come get your grub on at WF\u2019s Mostly
\nHollow Potato Skins & Mediocre Outdated Clothing instead and score yourself a greasy
\nbag of indigestible spuds and a pair of slightly used NBA-length cargo shorts!!\u201d
\nNeither of WF\u2019s statements is true. SS does not sell any fake products, and SS has no
\naffiliation with COVID-Proof Drunk Tank. Nonetheless, Skinner\u2019s Skins will see its sales
\nplummet in the weeks following WF\u2019s tirade.
\nWF drops the mic and runs away, tripping over a cable from LMc\u2019s camera crew and
\nlands on his tailbone. He is not injured.
\nMeanwhile, inside the grocery store, RR is captivated by the Flake\u2019s canned goods variety
\nbut is stirred from her reverie as she notices the Flake\/Fly Fishing AF bartender EM and
\nsushi-costume-guy PM reenacting the first scene from \u201cBreaking Bad\u201d (although she\u2019s
\npretty sure only Walter was in tighty whities in that scene, not Jesse too) as they careen
\ndown the aisle in an imaginary RV. RR wonders if she\u2019s really just dreaming \u2014 rows
\nand rows of Rotel, ravioli, and fruit cocktail tend to have that effect on her \u2014 but when
\nshe thinks she sees a woman named MC barrel-racing through the fresh produce displays
\non a horse (and trucking PM), she\u2019s pretty sure she might have slammed too many of
\nthose CBD-infused hard seltzers they were handing out in the next aisle. Sometimes RR
\nloves her a good grocery store a little too enthusiastically.
\nRR limps outside and arrives back at the grandstand. She starts to lift the trash can out of
\nthe seat next to her so that SA, who\u2019d been escorted back to the grandstand by JK after
\nthe lightning delay, can sit. Just then, another flash of lightning illuminates the sky over
\nthe Flake, rips down over the lake, and strikes the promotional mini-surfboard that
\nremains lodged in the trash can. The electricity from the strike courses through the
\nwakesurf board\u2019s titanium deck and chrome fins and penetrates the trash can, and the
\nshock knocks RR out cold.
\nWakeLake & Corn Flakes security guard JSkid rushes over to RR but freezes. He has
\nnever been trained by LC on how to respond to medical emergencies and has no idea what
\nto do or who to contact first.
\nJust outside the Flake is Matt McConaughey, who had driven to the Flake in a motorized
\nwheelchair that he uses because he likes how it looks (he has no physical need for the
\nwheelchair). Matt arrives at the ferry dock but a security guard named MH refuses to let
\nhim into the event, explaining that Flake policies prohibit people in wheelchairs from
\nentering the premises. Matt starts to motor toward the entrance anyway, at which point
\nMH grabs hold of the wheelchair with one hand and holds Matt down with the other.
\nAs Matt struggles to pry himself free, he is struck by lightning.
\nThe following 45 people and entities come to your law office \u2014 some who believe they might have legal
\nclaims to pursue, some who feel they need a lawyer to defend against possible claims, and some who are
