The B-plot centers on Gregory’s struggle to connect with his students during indoor recess due to a heatwave. He tries to teach them chess, but they prefer to use the pieces as action figures. In a quietly funny montage, Gregory attempts “cool teacher” tactics—dabbing, using slang incorrectly—only to be met with blank stares.

She’s partnered with a local grocery co-op, and her enthusiasm is contagious, even if Gregory Edmonds remains skeptical.
