Sometime after the book exchange with Amanda, Maniac shows up at a local high school athletic field. Maniac is discovered as he catches a sixty-yard football pass thrown by the school’s quarterback, Brian Deheny. After the amazing catch, Maniac runs up the field, turns, and punts the ball in a perfect spiral over a group of confused gym students and directly into the hands of the receiver, James “Hands” Down.
