Alice, the most likely to succeed, washes her hands repeatedly and dries them with tissues, her standard purification ritual, before she will drink the punch. The prom queen, Mary, is not at the reunion because she is afraid to leave her house. The star quarterback, Gary, says he is in charge of the CIA and that a group of terrorists plans to take him hostage. While he is talking, he carefully watches his wife dance with an old classmate and appears jealous.
