   Summary

   Jerry’s parents are gone for the summer, the club’s falling apart (like that’s new), and Pete isn’t acting like himself. He’s quiet now. Strange. Distant in a way that feels personal.

   Pete’s obsession never ended—it just got worse. Louder. Ritualistic. He’s been watching, collecting, remembering. Fixated. And Jerry noticed. Worse part? He loved it.

   OR

   Pete’s obsession with Jerry is getting worse and conflicting with his beliefs and how he’s grown up. Jerry is getting a mini power trip over the power he has.
