Note the sponsors on the banners announcing the student talent competition. And there are all of Mary Katherine's usual quirks--sticking her hands under her armpits, her movie...
...Flasks. Flasks are key. Grey rubber from the army surplus or silver, engraved, from Brooks'--just don't pull out some "Evian." Other accessories to consider: the dog collar, the watch fob and the sparkly butterfly barrette...
