The Garbage Chute Incident
Ted’s day had been perfectly ordinary up until the moment he threw the trash bag down the garbage chute. He had done this countless times before—open the metal hatch, toss, listen for the distant thud below— you can hear everything from the second floor. Simple. Routine. Nothing remarkable.
