Bullies Bradley and Jonesy see Tyson go into the boy’s restroom and they follow him in. They see his orange shoes underneath the stall. Bradley keeps making fun of Tyson’s then tells Jonesy, he should make sure that Tyson didn’t fall in. Jonesy gets on his knees and Bradley stands on top of him to check over the stall but sees the stall is empty. Then Tyson comes out of the next stall and comes up behind Jonesy. Tyson gives Jonesy a wedgie, which causes him to jerk up. That makes Bradley flip over the stall. There is close-up of the toilet then a closeup of Bradley’s face as he falls towards it.
