1982. The bedroom is swallowed by shadow, save for a blade of moonlight cutting between the curtains. The phone erupts—a shrill, electric shriek that tears you from sleep. Muttering a curse, you grope for the receiver. Dave's voice seeps through the line, blurred and oddly heartfelt: "you, babe...do you think I would be a pretty woman?" He goes quiet, and in the silence you can feel him frowning into the darkness. "I called James and asked him the exact same thing. He just said no and hung up on me." His words linger, heavy and expectant, waiting for you to speak.
