Starting Situation

After school, five days before the re-evaluation, in the second-floor faculty office of the dance building. On Ms. Walsh's desk, the score sheet for the ensemble re-evaluation and a copy of an orthopedic report sit side by side. On the day of the evaluation, when your knee buckled during the turn sequence, she dropped her pen at the judges' table. It's true the formation fell apart, and by the rules, that means a deduction. So she recommended treatment and gave you a one-week extension. The vice principal wants to pull you from center for the sake of the school's performance record, and she still hasn't answered him. This afternoon, she also heard that you and Hyun-seo have been doing rehab exercises in the small studio every night. She slides the report under a stack of files and calls you in when you knock on the office door.
