In ‘Kill the Lax Bro,' Charlotte Lillie Balogh asks whodunit — and who let it happen
The aftershock of this betrayal was one of several personal heartbreaks that fueled Balogh's debut YA novel, is actor Chris Evans — Get Starting Point A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday. Enter Email Sign Up 'Almost everything in this book really happened in some way,' Balogh tells the Globe. 'There were quite a few Easter eggs of my exes sprinkled throughout.' Advertisement The murder, she assures, is strictly fictional. The mystery is set in the fictional Massachusetts town of Hancock during the 1990s, where star lacrosse player Troy Richards is the target of four students' attempts to ruin his reputation. But when Troy winds up dead during Hancock High's Lock-In Night, Andrew, his former teammate/best friend; Stassi, his straight A ex-girlfriend; Naomi, the shy but observant freshman; and Tatum, the burnout with a secret grudge, must unravel the whodunit before the crime is pinned on them. Advertisement With and commentary on toxic sports culture, status quos, and self-discovery. While Troy is the doomed, titular 'lax bro,' the sometimes-negative impact of student athlete culture and toxic masculinity are Balogh's real targets. She had been a member of her high school's rowing team and later rowed for Syracuse University as an undergrad. As a student athlete, Balogh observed the different coaching approaches for girls vs. boys team sports firsthand. 'I know a coach who told me it's easier to coach boys because they're very competitive,' says Balogh, who coaches a youth team in Los Angeles, where she now resides. '[While], girls are not encouraged to be as ferocious so quickly in life.' She was especially inspired by 'New England life'; in particular, her high school alma mater's boy's lacrosse team — Troy and Andrew are amalgamations of the memories of her classmates and her own. While Balogh describes Andrew as 'the boy next door,' his increasingly volatile actions reveal his more vengeful underbelly. Troy, though (dead and) the antagonist, becomes more sympathetic as his backstory is uncovered. The intention was to 'flip archetypes. 'They both have their own ways in which they're perfect and idolized by their classmates. And it's like, which of them is better?' she says. 'Are either of them better?' Balogh also drew from 'cinematic perfection' that is 'John Tucker Must Die,' the early-2000s teen dramedy about a group of girls who, upon finding out they're dating the same guy, team up for revenge. Advertisement Spoiler: John Tucker does not die — it's more social sabotage than murder — but Balogh, a TV writer by trade, had wondered: But what if they actually killed him? 'Kill the Lax Bro' started as a 50-page TV pilot script in 2020, but eventually caught the eye of Balogh's literary agent, with whom she had previously worked on another manuscript. (That story — about a Boston high school rowing team, ahead of the Head of the Charles Regatta — will be the basis for her second novel, slated for fall 2026.) When the manuscript was put out on submission, an editor at Penguin found a video of a table read of 'She watched this video and was like, 'I want to buy that as a book instead,'" says Balogh. Charlotte Lillie Balogh will celebrate the release of 'Kill the Lax Bro' at the Natick Barnes & Noble, July 12, 6 p.m. 1324 Worcester St., Natick. Marianna Orozco can be reached at

'Squid Game' Season 3: Six Easter Eggs and Clues You (Probably) Missed
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Squid Game, Netflix's biggest show of all time, has returned for its third and final season with deadlier games than ever. The gripping K-drama series follows 456 cash-strapped individuals who compete in a deadly survival competition themed around children's games for the chance to win 46.5 billion Korean won (approximately $33.6 million). Here, we unpack some of the messages, clues and Easter eggs that may have been hidden in plain sight in the final season. The Writings on the Wall As contestants get eliminated with each round, more beds in the players' sleeping quarters are also cleared out, revealing some writings on the walls behind the beds. Before the final game, the remaining nine players are treated to a grand feast in their sleeping quarters, swapping their green tracksuits for black-tie attire, and the lettering along the walls is revealed in full. On one wall are the letters "HODIE MIHI," while it says "CRAS TIBI" on another—all in capital letters. The cryptic lettering refers to the Latin phrase "hodie mihi, cras tibi," which translates to "today it's me, tomorrow it will be you." The phrase was said to have been inscribed on many medieval tombstones, highlighting the fragility of life, which mirrors the vulnerability of the contestants in Squid Game. Player No. 456 (played by Lee Jung-jae) pictured in "Squid Game" Season 3. Player No. 456 (played by Lee Jung-jae) pictured in "Squid Game" Season 3. ...and Warnings on the Wall During a deadly round of hide-and-seek, half the players are each given a knife to use to catch and kill the other half. Those in the other half are each given a key that unlocks certain doors to rooms within a maze-like venue, where they can hide. During one scene, where player No. 333 (played by Im Si-wan) is speaking to player No. 124 (played by Roh Jae-won), on a wall behind No. 333 is Korean writing that reads "사람 조심 바보," which translates to "Beware of people, idiot" or "Be careful of people, stupid." The warning appears fitting as player No. 333 later agrees to go on a killing frenzy with No. 124, killing off more players than required to move onto the next round of games, in a bid to maximize their potential prize earnings. He eventually ends up killing player No. 120 (played by Park Sung-hoon), who was moments away from helping others to successfully escape the venue, including player No. 222 (played by Jo Yu-ri) and her baby, who was fathered by No. 333. In the final game round, as players arrive at the game facility, which features three giant pillars from where players are later pushed off, there is signage on a wall that ironically says "안전 제일," which translates to "safety first."

Earlier in the show, No. 388 failed to deliver the extra ammunition needed during the players' joint attempt to overthrow the game system and the people behind it. Moments before player No. 456 manages to find player No. 388, the game timer shown just behind No. 456 reads "4:56," marking a turning point as No. 456 later chokes No. 388 to death, participating in the very act he came back to the competition to prevent. His killing of No. 388 qualifies him for the next round. Ode to Player No. 067 Season 3 sees some cameos from characters who died in previous seasons. One of them includes North Korean player No. 067, named Kang Sae-byeok (played by HoYeon Jung), a fierce yet vulnerable character who was one of the finalists and became a fan favorite in Season 1. The player's name translates to "river dawn." Season 3 also features a female North Korean defector, Kang No-eul (played by Park Gyu-young), who is one of the game's pink-suited guards. Her name translates to "river sunset." A female pink guard, a North Korean defector named Kang No-eul (played by Park Gyu-young), returns to "Squid Game" in Season 3.

She begins snooping around the back rooms to scan the archives that contain detailed information about each player. Along a shelf with several binders labeled "Squid Archives 2024" is one on the far left, which is mysteriously labeled "blacklist players" in Korean. The guard appears to ignore that binder and goes through other folders to track down the profile on player No. 246 (played by Lee Jin-wook).

In Season 3, we see a similar scene—the baby of player No. 222 later wears the jacket of player No. 456, who wraps the baby in his jacket, taking it upon himself to protect the baby at all costs throughout the remainder of the game. Squid Game Season 3 is available to stream now on Netflix.

In-N-Out Burger takes on bizarre threat to its popular brand
In-N-Out Burger was the first drive-thru hamburger stand in California when it opened its doors in 1948. Today, the menu is largely the same, although its famous Double-Double burger was not added to the menu until 1963. In-N-Out has a huge following, with fans loving its "secret" menu, including Animal Style burgers cooked in mustard with extra spread, pickles, and grilled onions. And speculation abounds regarding what's in the company's special spread. Don't miss the move: Subscribe to TheStreet's free daily newsletter With the restaurant looking to expand into new locations in 2025 and build upon its great success, it needs to do everything possible to protect the strong brand it has built. That's why it is now taking on a surprising threat to its rock-solid company reputation. In-N-Out is known for affordable prices, fresh ingredients, and consistent quality, and obviously it wants to maintain that reputation and avoid scandals. That's why the company is taking aggressive action after some disturbing videos went viral recently. Specifically, Bryan Arnett, a content creator with over 600,000 followers on Instagram and YouTube, has published some videos that upset In-N-Out Burger. Related: Costco lawsuit unveils major issue with warehouse club stores The latest of those videos was uploaded on April 25 and showed Arnett impersonating an In-N-Out employee at a Glendale location. Arnett went to the location when it was closed on Easter and talked with customers who had pulled up to the restaurant to order food. The customers didn't know that they were being pranked – they just thought they were ordering. Arnett was dressed up as an In-N-Out employee, and while he pretended to take real orders, he offered fake menu items to some customers, said offensive things to others, and pretended a cockroach was found in one customer's order. This is not Arnett's first prank against In-N-Out, as he previously put up a fake Employee of the Month poster and tried to pay with pennies for random orders made by other customers. Unsurprisingly, In-N-Out isn't thrilled about having a fake employee offending real customers, and then posting the video to cause confusion about whether it was actually a real worker saying these offensive things and finding bugs in the food. The company has decided it has had enough and has filed a lawsuit against Arnett. In-N-Out claims that the creator "falsely" represented the company and that Arnett's "lewd, unsettling, and bizarre" videos constituted defamatory content. The lawsuit states that the comments "reflected directly and negatively on In-N-Out." Related: Costco faces claims that it tricks customers over prices In-N-Out told the court that it had already sent Arnett a cease-and-desist letter. However, the burger chain wants to recover all of the money he made from his viral videos that pranked the company. If In-N-Out prevails in the lawsuit, Arnett would also be permanently banned from all restaurant locations and held legally liable for proven financial damages that the company suffered as a result of his actions. It remains to be seen how the lawsuit will play out. For now, Arnett has made videos featuring the burger chain private. The creator also posted another private video showing him eating food from the chain in his car and responding to the lawsuit, stating, "I'm not gonna sit here and act surprised. When I went out and filmed the video, I kinda knew what kind of waters I was stepping into."

"Like yeah, sure, it'll probably be annoying or whatever, but whatever's gonna happen is gonna happen."
