The story so far
Everything you need before watchingSugar Rush is gone, and the racers have nowhere to live. Felix begs the room to open their doors. Someone takes the green olive; Sour Bill goes as a condiment; the kids remain. Calhoun, who never talked about family, offers sanctuary. Ralph warns they are feral. Felix shrugs: how hard can parenting be? Give them everything. The house explodes in seconds.
