for... For four months now,
Chris.
Just... Just sell
what's in your contract.
Get us out of that business.
Linda. That is what
I am trying to do.
This is what I'm trying
to do for my family.
For you and for Christopher.
What's the matter with you?
Linda.
Linda.
This part of my life
is called...
"Being Stupid."
Can I ask you a favor, miss?
Do you mind... if I
leave this here with you,
um, just for five minutes?
I have a meeting in there,
and I don't wanna
carry that in there
looking smalltime.
Um...
here is a dollar.
And... I'll give you
more money
when I come back out.
Okay.
Um, it's not valuable.
You can't sell it anywhere.
Um, I-I can't even sell it,
and it's my job.
Chris?
Yes.
Tim Brophy, Resources.
How are you?
Come with me.
Yes, sir.
Let me see if I can
find you an application

I'm just this office.
As you can see, we got a hell
of a lot of applications here...
Normally I have a resume sheet,
but I can't seem
to find it anywhere.
W-we, uh... Uh...
Um... Thank you very much.
I need to go. Um...
I'll... I'll br...
I'll bring this back.
Thank you.
Okay.

Why did I do that?
Excuse me. Excuse me.
Like I said,
this part of my life
is called "Being Stupid."
Hey! Hey!
Hey! Don't move!
Don't move! Stay...!
Stop! Stop!
Don't move! Stop this...!
Stop the train!
Stop! Stop!
The program took just 20 people
every six months.
One got the job.
after "high school"
to... list more education.
I didn't need that many lines.
Try and sleep.
It's late.
It's a puzzle measuring
just three inches
made up of multiple colors
that you twist and turn,
and try to get to
This little cube is
the gift sensation of 1981.
Don't expect
to solve it easily.
Although we did encounter
one math professor at USF

30 minutes on his.
This is as far as
I've gotten on mine.
As you can see,
I still have a long way to go.
This is Jim Finnerty reporting
for KJSF in Richmond.
Hey.
Wake up.
Eat.
Bye, Mom.
Bye, baby.
Come back without that, please.
Oh. Yeah,
I'm going to.
So go ahead, say goodbye to it,
'cause I'm coming back
without it.
Goodbye and good riddance.
You ain't had to add
the "good riddance" part.
Bye, Mom.
Bye.
