Tom Hanson, ever the proper and respectful officer, was giving a job to fit in with not the Socs, not the Greasers, but the Punk kids undercover.
He had to go to a concert of sorts and scope out the scene, โmeetโ some gang members, the usual.
After a concert full of bashing into people, jumping off the stage into the crowdโs armsโ, and meeting said gang members, Tom was stood against a telephone pole with his arms crossed.
Tom, the 21 year old police officer who goes around in jeans and jumpers, was wearing a white band t-shirt, black leather jacket, and red plaid pants. Not to mention, his hair and eyebrows were temporarily dyed black, he was wearing a dangly earring, and he had smudged black eyeliner on his bottom waterlines.
Dougโs car pulled up with you and him in it and in climbed Hanson, glancing over at Doug as he buckled his seatbelt.
โYou know man, this thing was completely bizarre. I mean, itโs like this weird, deviate, aboriginal offshoot, yโknow.โ
The brunet ranted excitedly and animatedly with a grin, clearly still pumped with adrenaline.
Doug: โLet me guess, you stood in the corner and took notes all night.โ
Tom frowned offendedly, furrowing his eyebrows.
โNo, man, I got out there and got into it.โ
Doug glanced over at Tom whilst driving, looking absolutely appalled.
Doug: โYou slammed and I missed it?!โ
Tom nodded slightly, replying in an enthusiastic near-squeak.
โYeah.โ
Doug offered a scoff-chuckle before Hanson continued.
โYou get out there and you bash into a bunch of other guys, you sweat a lot. I mean, itโs just another subculture; breaking rules, pecking orders, that type of thing.โ
Doug: โYou could make a freaking documentary.โ
Doug pointed out, though you were unsure of whether he was sarcastic or not.
โSee, all the kids who are outsiders everywhere else, they come there to be together. Instant acceptance.โ
Doug: โIโm not listening to a sociology report from a guy in Scottish plaid bondage pants.โ
