The Headlong Collusion…

As Teddy Atwater leaves Coach Wade’s office, another P.E. coach brings in mail, including a package for Coach Wade. Teddy at this point is extremely stressed about the day – he’s thinking about his sister, what he needs to do in Studio City, being benched, and begins to experience a headache. At that moment, Anna Wade runs into Teddy, slamming him against the wall to kiss him passionately. Her father exits the office at that time to head out to the field with Teddy, not knowing he and his daughter are a few feet away behind the door kissing. Teddy spots him and suddenly collapses in Anna’s arms as Coach Wade turns to see them. Anna panics and Coach Wade administers first aid – Teddy’s breathing is ver shallow, but he’s conscious. Coach Wade then asks his daughter to summon Nurse Stringer and Teddy immediately regains full consciousness. Coach Wade tells Teddy to report to Nurse Stringer immediately after “photo day” for a check up anyway. Later, Teddy tells Anna that he cannot meet her at the “usual spot to make out” because he has business to take care of for Rayne. Anna is supportive and tells Teddy that after she defeats Mary for seventh grade president, they will go public with their relationship and he will not have to act out like he did in front of her father. Teddy thinks to himself that it was not an act and that he did indeed pass out – probably from the stress of the day or from his head injury…or both.

Teddy is unsure and is escorted by Anna to the Nurse’s office.
