(The day before Adams shrinking)
Jay and his housemates Mark an Alec are sitting in the lounge watching T.V, Jay has swiped the remote from Alec after spending ten agonizing minutes watching him flick through the channels.
"What the hell man, I was going to watch something," said Alec "By the looks of it you want to watch everything. I just want to relax and watch TV, not with someone keep changing the channel every second. My house my rules, end of" Jay said bluntly.
Jay puts the News on, Mark and Alec start complaining "Why do you watch this crap, it's the same thing all the time, who cares if Trump won the election" says Mark, "If you're going to watch this crap I might as well go up to my room" says Alec. Jay gives them both a stern look. Alec decides to exit the room.
Mark is on his phone and Jay is still watching the News when the Daily Sports Report gets interrupted by a Breaking News bulletin.

BREAKING NEWS - SHRINKING DRUG CAUSING PANIC ACROSS THE GLOBE
"Good evening, there have been reports of people shrinking all over the globe causing a worldwide epidemic. The cause of this is found to be a new pill known by the Metropolitan Police as XDS, also known as the Shrinking Drug"
"So far all that is known about the drug swarming the black market is that it makes the recipient shrink down to the height of just a couple of inches. The effects of XDS have so far been found to be irreversible."
"The first incident was reported in Croydon outside The Dog & Bull, 24 Surrey Street, South London on 21st October this year causing serval men to shrink, four of the men tried to get help but were accidentally killed by a passer-by. A member of the public noticed two of the remaining men under a table outside the venue unharmed, emergency services were called the scene and the two men have since been detained for questioning and testing by the W.H.O (World Health Organisation), in hopes of finding a cure."
"Private investigators have urged the general public to come forward with any information regarding the drug, in the hopes of finding its origin. Members of the public have also been asked to be very cautious when buying illegal drugs".
"Anyone caught buying or distributing the drug will be detained by local authorities."

Mark turns to Jay and starts laughing, "This can't be real, they do put some shit on the news, I don't know why you watch it mate" says Mark, "Oh but you were watching it, can't be so boring after all" says Jay, "Well when something as funny as people shrinking comes on the news how can I not, it's not something that comes up very often. How could that story be true anyway", "Breaking news people have shrunk" "what a load of rubbish, like what the hell has happened to this world?
Shrinking is impossible!" Mark says arrogantly, "well it's not that impossible, otherwise, why would it be on the news you idiot," says Jay. "If I found someone shrunk, l'd probably keep them as a pet" laughs Mark.
*Beep, Beep*, Jay's phone receives a message, "Who's messaging you, is it your bum boy Adam" says Mark, "You know what mate, why are you still here, I cannot be bothered with your attitude today", "Fuck off out" says Jay angrily. Mark stands up "Someone's got a bee in their bonnet today," Mark says before and exiting the room.
Jay looks at his phone to see a message from Adam saying
"Hey man, I hope you're ready for our night out, I can't wait for a drink, everything at home is stressing me out". Jay replies "Tell me about it, these two are doing my nut in. I bought some new Nike Airforces today for our night out, see you tomorrow".
Jay places his phone down and carries on watching TV.
