Instead, Carleton is hiding out at the local bowling alley, terrified at making a commitment and asking himself if he really wants to go to Princeton, or if he's just going through the motions to please his father. Can it be that our hero is about to throw away everything he's worked for in favor of becoming a professional pin-buster?
