Whisper throws a sandbag at Nate who dodges but then proceeds to try and hit Nate with a bat full of nails. Nate tells Whisper that if he's a real man, he'll fight him with fisticuffs. Instead of punching, Whisper tries fighting Nate with rock paper scissors. Since Nate was ready to punch, he used rock while Whisper used scissors and he proclaims he's lost. Nate decides to head to school and the rowdy Whisper follows him.
Nate greets his friends at the school gate and sees Eddie however Eddie has taken a rowdy appearance just like Whisper.
