Reed paced back and forth in his living room, the glow of the television casting flickering shadows across the walls. On the screen, Mike Powell's campaign ads played on a loop, his smiling face plastered across billboards and television screens alike.

"You seeing this?" Reed said into the phone, frustration evident in his voice.

"Yeah, he's everywhere now. Might even possibly win the election," Mecca replied, her tone grim.
