Nat's family are preparing for the solemn ritual of watching The Game on T.V. A Government sponsored super football, it's much more than a spectator sport
A win, for instance, can increase production, lessen vandalism, reduce suicides
They're horrified when their son (a state employee who's been allowed into the stadium) says the whole thing is a gigantic con - there's no game, it's all a computerized fraud designed to keep the people happy and quiet
Nat's shattered, but his wife says it's faith that matters: if you believe in The Game, it exists
