Having spent the break with Roxanne, it was time for Max to head back to his own college, but this time with a different outlook.

Given his time with her went so well, Max had a new idea in his mind; If she liked how he looked now. Why not get even bigger? All he would have to do is get tips from PJ about how to do all the fun hobbies he's grown fond of with several extra hundred pounds on his body.

PJ was initially confused with Max's insistence on doubling down on the burgers, and fondness for protein drinks packed with calories. Max explained his plan to PJ, and his plan to even surpass PJ's own size, and asked for his help. The answer of course was a quick yes! After all, he spent his whole life being the lone fat kid of any group, why not take the chance to let someone else be the fattest one in the room?
