	After The Dark / int_b6e1d40b	comment	Acceptable Breaks from Reality: In real life, there are several institutions that would frown upon a high school teacher committing academic extortion (as Zimit does in the opening). Why isn't this acknowledged? Because then there'd be no plot, that's why. Each of the three scenarios contains these to different degrees, since they are just abstracted mental exercises. And then there is Chips' own story, which goes into the comedic spectrum of breaks from reality.
