Jessi’s Gold Medal: “If he wins, I’ll die.”
Jessi works hard and is also amazing at a famously difficult sport–synchronized swimming! It’s basically ballet… in… water... yeah…? (No….) Esme discusses the research on grit and we learn how gritty Anne and Emily are. We also discuss the geopolitical implications of the Olympics… but don’t worry, Anne pulls us out of that hole with some fun ‘92 Olympic facts. Time for the jocks of Stoneybrook to shine! PS-Mallory sprains her ankle on purpose.
