Summary
Mike, Lucas, Dustin, and Will are forced to spend the summer at a Mr. Murray Bauman’s house (bunker more like). Mike would say it was because god hates him, but really, their parents had schemed with Joyce to get the kids out of the house this summer. Mr. Bauman also owed Joyce a favor.
During an incredibly competitive game of hide and seek, Dustin discovers an ancient looking wardrobe, distinctly different from any of the modern furniture in Mr. Bauman’s hole of a home. Inside the wardrobe, is something Dustin has never seen before. It’s like a real-life D&D campaign in there. Now he just has to convince the rest of the party to venture into the unknown with him.

Summary
Ted Spankoffski is a lot of things: an asshole, a sleazeball, the 'other person' of more than a few adultery allegations, pansexual, and, most importantly, an unlucky fucking bastard.
Except, this time, the story isn't about him. (It never really is, though, is it?) This time the only thing you need to know about Ted Spankoffski is that he's a big brother.
And it's about damn time his little brother got a taste of that good, old fashioned Spankoffski luck, don't you think?
(Alternatively titled: Ted's perspective on Nerdy Prudes Must Die)
