Is the Pinball Queen up to her encounter with the Acid Queen? And does her audience stand a chance of distracting her?

Olive is the best player at Zeke’s Pinball Emporium, always drawing a crowd when she steps up to the machines. When she catches her boyfriend on her futon with Susie from the copy store and his stoner friend Seth, she makes a deal with Zeke that will pull in a whole different kind of crowd and tilt her table like it’s never been tilted before. Will she be distracted by all the attention, or will she master the latest addition to Zeke’s arcade?

The legendary Acid Queen table — spoken of in hushed whispers among aficionados — is one of the most challenging pinball machines ever devised. A player even at Olive’s level would be hard pressed to defeat it. But Olive has agreed not only to face the table, but to let an audience try to distract her while she plays. And their distractions are of a decidedly sexy variety.
