I had lived the first twenty-seven years of my

life completely lost. Living it up, as I thought,

at nightclubs with all the alcohol and women a

man could want.

Ethan shifts uncomfortably on the bedside.

That was what I wanted. The life I thought I

wanted. Money was an accessory to me. And it was

my awareness of that which changed me. You know,

it amazes me to this day, of all the mistakes I

made, the thing that got me into trouble, the

money, was what pulled me out. I will never

forget that night…

Ethan looks DIRECTLY into the camera.

The glass is always half full. He saved my life.

This man could have seen the bad in me, could

have left me passed out in the street to fend for

myself. God knows I deserved it. But he didn’t.

He gave me a second chance. That is something,

Detective, I would like you to take to mind.

Everybody, good or bad, deserves a chance,

deserves to be seen as at least the glass half

full. If you can’t understand that, then this

will have all been for nothing.

Once the stock market had crashed, I was done

for, there was nowhere for me to go but to the

bottom- to the streets.

Brooks pauses for a response from MCILROY, and then continues

when he remains silent.

But I never gave up. I never lost hope. I

continued to practice everything I knew about

economics and even managed to get better than I

had ever been before. The numbers were my only

friends-

Brooks begins to tear up, becoming very emotional.

That is until Ethan showed up.

He saw something in me that those who tossed me

to the curb never did. He put me back on my feet

and pushed me to succeed.(laughs, still emotional

though) You should know he didn’t hand me this

position as President of Wells Enterprises on a

platter. Jonathan Wells doesn’t exactly have the

heart his son had-

I worked tirelessly to get this job, but Ethan

was at my side the entire ride. God do I miss

that kid. To think this world lost a saint and it

doesn’t even know it.

When Ethan began using corporate funds from Wells

Enterprises to help those in need... a ticking

time bomb waiting to go off.ETHAN was willing to

give his father a second chance, let him walk

free, but I was not so forgiving.Ethan will still

have what he wanted. ETHAN’s claim of suicide

will easily let his father walk clean. Ethan

hoped his father would see past the numbers, see

the faces of the people whose lives were changed

thanks to his work.

MCILROY, retrieves a folded-up piece of paper from his pocket

(it is Emily Dickinson’ poem)

ETHAN’s greatest hope of all, however, was that

the world never lose hope, never forget these

words:

“Hope” is the thing with feathers -

That perches in the soul -

And sings the tune without the words -

And never stops - at all -

And sweetest - in the Gale - is heard -

And sore must be the storm -

That could abash the little Bird

That kept so many warm –

I’ve heard it in the chillest land -

And on the strangest Sea –

Yet - never - in Extremity,

It asked a crumb – of me.
