PART ONE
[The lights dim and you are no longer in a classroom, but a low key bar. An older gentleman from behind the counter is looking at you as if waiting for your next order. La Torre's voice comes from nowhere in particular:]
Today I have a story for you. Have you ever heard of the Human Condition? It's a conceited study of what traits innately make a human being a human being. Some say it can be defined as humanity's capacity for good and for evil. If a person has an infinite capacity for good then, like a mirror image, they must have an infinite capacity for evil, right?
There was a man. He was sitting at a bar. He couldn't accept the reality of his world. It was his lot in life to wish for a different lot; he was a selfish, small man. He drank. He drank to forget. He drank to obfuscate his understanding. He drank so he didn't have to accept.
You are sitting at a bar. Why are you drinking?

PART ONE CLOSE
And then the lights brighten and you're back in a typical classroom being lectured by a disembodied female voice.]
What are you all doing in here? Class has started! You'll never get into university like this! Report to your classrooms, children.
[With an embarrassed look La Torre heads for the door of the class room.]
Let's pick this up later, okay? I have a lot of tests to make up... Come back after school.
[He leaves and you are now FREE TO GO WHERE YOU PLEASE in your drunken stupor. Enjoy!]
