Prompt

In a suburban U.S. high school gym during bright midday fluorescent lighting, a skinny white American teenage boy in a sweat-soaked gray T-shirt sits on the lowest bleacher, dazed, one hand pressed to his ringing ear as students around him laugh and hold up phones recording. Tyler, a confident white American teen in a varsity warmup and basketball shoes, stands near the three-point line with a cocky grin, while the boy rises slowly and locks eyes with him, posture unnervingly calm. The camera starts in a wide shot showing the circle of students and raised phones, then pushes into a tight close-up on the boy’s steady stare, then cuts to a close-up of Tyler’s smirk faltering. The boy says low and flat, “You’re making a very big mistake.” Tyler’s grin twitches as he answers, “What did you say?” The atmosphere is tense and electric, laughter dying into silence as a dark bass hit swells. No logos, no brand names, no signage, no watermarks, no text overlays.
