1970 - Crowd gathers. Mark wins. Johnny and Mark shake hands and end up best friends. Nobody goes to jail; nobody arrested; nobody expelled.
2007 Johnny and his friends swam Mark & kill him, Teacher looks the other way, police are called, swat team arrives, school into lock down, hundreds of students need therapy, etc.,
