Kyle ran into his house, slamming the door behind him. He threw his book bag on the floor and
plopped onto the couch. After six hours of playing Grand Larceny VII, he ate some pizza and fell
asleep with a slice on his stomach and his feet on his book bag. When Kyle came home from school
the next day, he was noticeably distraught. He balled up his report card and placed it inside a soup can
in the garbage. He then flipped the soup can upside down in the garbage can and arranged loose pieces
of trash over it. As he plopped down on the couch, he let out a sigh and picked up his controller.
