While Timmy talks about birthday presents, Zach keeps steering the conversation toward himself. Trevor calls out the behavior, but Zach reframes it as a condition deserving sympathy. After a song and an exaggerated injury fail to hold the group’s interest, Trevor persuades the others to ignore him. Zach responds with increasingly dangerous bids for notice and dies while their backs are turned. The stunned group leaves without agreeing on what, if anything, they have learned.
