In real life, my highschool got destroyed by a tornado so we had to spread out classes between different buildings. In this dream, this manifested as us having to use a school building that was very close to a local college, despite the fact that this was not in town at all. After school was out I proceeded to go out to my car which I thought was in the normal front parking lot because me and some friends talked about it before, but I remembered that I forgot about that when I woke up, so I actually parked in the lower lot. I still was out in the front lot, and I saw a friend go into a white car that looked a lot like mine, so I jumped, rolled, and slid over the hood to get to the other side, but then I realized it was her car, so I tried to just walk it off casually. Luckily nobody saw
I made my way down to the lower lot area but instead of going the regular route I wanted to test something out that my teacher had said. He said that about 10 years back, something similar happened where he had to send a student to a room that was actually in a college campus. I decided to use the open doors to my advantage and see how far I could wander.
I wandered to this footpath/wooden bridge thing that I walked through and I met a group of adults talking. In that group was a guy kinda like young Mark Zuckerberg (at least back when he had his curly hair) and one of my old band teachers who I really liked. I tried to start a conversation with him but it was really awkward and I just kinda wandered off while going "mhm. yeah" and walked away while he was looking at this one building called the "Callahan Building".
I made my way over to the college area and I entered a dorm and found a group of 4 college students. One recognized me but I didn't really recognise her. I remember her being an alt girl with shaved pink hair. She said to me "It's done," and I was like "uhhhh what???" because I thought she meant like "You really shouldn't be in here" but it turns out that what she really meant is that when she met me working at my family's candy store she told me about how she was going to break up with her boyfriend and she went through with her weird plan and did it. I was like "oh cool". There was this other girl on the couched where they were all sitting and I didn't really trust her she looked kinda stuck up and she looked at me like she didn't like me. I decided to ignore her and act like the interaction was done and be on my merry way.
I wondered around their room looking for the stairs when I kinda bumped into them to find them and I walked up the stairs into a completely different room. I went down 2 more floors and found a basement looking area, which was weird cause they called the floor that I started in the 2nd floor. I decided to go back up but I noticed that one kinda suspicious girl walked up past me but I kept exploring to try and play it cool and she encountered me and he said like "Stop! Don't go anywhere else" but it wasn't in English. I could understand the words she was saying because she said the syllables/morphemes separated like she was trying to drive home a point and I knew the words that she was using not just because she clearly meant "stop it."
Either way I didn't listen because this was technically all an open area and I decided to go up to the 5th floor and it was like one of those cool attic-rooms and then I decided that I saw all that I needed to see and went downstairs. A principle-like figure (it might have been just a high up professor. basically just someone who could get me in trouble) was talking with the group in a chill was and I moseyed out of the room without a hitch.
I had a couple options from here. I could push my luck even more to explore and just say I was trying to get to the Elementary school (which was in the general direction), or go back. I went back because I was kinda scared. I met that group of adults again and both important figures to me were still there. Turns out that Mark Zuckerberg-looking guy was Mr. Callahan and he build the Callahan building that we were just looking at. He was kinda a 2010s tech bro. Him and my old band director were still talking and they mentioned it's one of the only buildings in the city like it. I tried to bring up the Marquee building (an actual building that has techbros and multiple buisnessed just like the fictional Callahan building) but they didn't listen.
I don't remember how I got home but I did and also my dream rationalized all of this by deciding that this all happened because for some reason I was determined to watch Boss Baby. I don't know what happened, but something strongly compelled me to watch and really understand Boss Baby so all of this that just happened was in Boss Baby. Except I couldn't do it normally, so I wasn't actually watching Boss Baby I was listening to it while I mowed the lawn and it wasn't even regular Boss Baby it was Spanish Boss Baby which is why that mean girl sounded like that.
A few days after all this happened I was sitting with my friends getting fast food outdoors and I was telling them about how I watched werid Spanish Boss Baby and they were like "oh you're so silly you and your stories" and then it turned out the place we were eating at was called Callahan's.
