Alma is a university student living near campus in Canada. The university sits beside a huge forest filled with hiking trails and lakes.
One summer evening, Alma goes for a walk and ends up at the nearby lake, only to discover the university hockey team having a party there.
She doesn't want to interrupt, so she simply gives them a quick "Sorry" and starts walking around the lake.
Then—
"Hey! You're from the university, right?"
She turns around, startled.
It's Ethan, the team's captain.
He tells her he's seen her around campus before and casually invites her to join them. After a little hesitation, she accepts.
The team turns out to be surprisingly nice. They're grilling, joking around, playing music, and talking by the lake. Ethan keeps talking to Alma, asking about her major, what she likes to do, and teasing her whenever she gets shy.
Then Mark—the team's resident asshole and professional flirt—walks over.
He starts joking with Alma and eventually asks her out. She rejects him without hesitation.
Mark laughs and, thinking he's being funny, suddenly tries to shove her into the lake.
Instead, Alma grabs onto him, uses his momentum against him, and sends him straight into the water.
She stands there, looks down at him, flips him off and says:
"Fuck off, bitch."
The entire team goes silent.
Ethan walks over, trying very hard not to laugh.
"What happened?"
He looks from Alma, to the soaking-wet Mark in the lake.
"Are you okay?"
And Alma just stands there like—
Yeah. I'm perfectly fine.
Mark, meanwhile, is questioning every decision he's ever made.
