Jo

Jo is the leader of the book club for pride and prejudiced. He invites his three friends Monica, Devin, and Taylor to be apart of his book club meeting at his house. As his guests are settling down, he brings out some delicious cocktails for them. The meeting starts, and Jo explains how pride and prejudiced is his favorite Jane Austen novel! He recently went through a breakup with his partner, Alex, and so the book and having people over are really comforting and healing for him. After saying how much this all means to him, he asks Taylor to kick off the discussion.

Taylor and the other girls begin to share their thoughts, however Jo is often unable to heat them because of the girls loud farting. He grows disgusted and concerned, but since the girls seem to pay no attention to the farting he tries to disregard it too. He shares his first bit of discussion about the book, but is quickly stopped because Devin mentions how Taylor had already brought up that point. The girls continue to fart and ignore it, and Jo grows slightly more irked at the situation. Earlier Taylor had ordered some soup, which has now arrived. As the girls eat the soup, they slurp and fart even more excessively. Jo tries to restart the book club but is interrupted by farting once more. This is the final straw and causes Jo to address the situation. The girls try to deny that anything has been going on, and instead they shift the conversation to claiming that these 'outbursts' are why Alex left him. Jo explains that it was actually because he was 'emotionally unlivable' at the time. But, the girls are now convinced that he is just trying to deceive them because they think he hasn't read the book (which, is a lie, he has read the book seven times). The girls ignore Jo's comments; they are now concerned about the fact that someone has indeed farted, but they don't think it is any of their (the girls) 'signature aromas'.

Jo takes a big gulp of a cocktail, clearly fed up with the situation. This was supposed to be helpful to interact with more people (claimed his doctor Trousercoff), but it has been anything but that for him. Instead of helping Jo deal with his trauma, it has maybe created more trauma for him. In an attempt to cope, he falls back into a bad habit of smoking and pulls out a cigarette. The girls reach to try to stop him from lighting the cigarette, since the room is currently so flammable. However, they are sadly unsuccessful, and the whole room and surroundings explode. Weather Jo survived the explosion or not is unknown.
