The students discuss the switch game, which has begun. They discuss the new speakers and displays that have been placed in the playground, but the school refuses to spend more money on them. One day, the students find a note addressed to them on the ground. The note says that whoever presses the switch will die. The students are shocked and wonder if the message is real. They believe that the button demon has told them that they will die if they press the switch. They wonder how it is possible that a person could be killed by a switch.
