As an alarm clock beeps, a young man named Mike wakes up and turns it off. He then puts some pills into a drawer and does push-ups. "Abs, (Y/n), you ready?" Mike walks into their room. "Ready for work? Abby? (Y/n)?" He looks around. "Girls." Mike approaches their pillow fort. "Come on, I know you're both in there. Let's go." Mike demands, and shakes the sheets. "Girls, come on." He said. "Okay, okay." Abby said. "You're being a jerk." (Y/n) said. "You two know I have somewhere to be, come on, let's go. Five minutes, I need you dressed." (Y/n) throws a stuffed animal at him and Abby snickers. "Five minutes." Mike said. Mike's co-worker Jeremiah is reading a book called, "Dream Theory" "And though the dreamer remains asleep, he walks through memory as if experiencing it for the first time anew, no longer a passenger but an active participant." He puts down the book and chuckles. "This stuff for real?" He asked. "Some people think so, guess it depends on what you believe." Mike said. "Summer of '82, I traded a mint condition Cal Ripken Jr. rookie for a used copy of "Missile Command". That card's probably worth 800 bucks now. I wish I could participate in that memory and actively kick my own ass." He looks at the book. "Can I keep it?" He asked. "No." Mike grabs the book.
Later he is in line for ice cream and sees a young boy by himself. "I would like the walnut fudge, but I want the fudge on the side because I don't want it to melt the ice cream; and can I get some whipped cream on top and 3 cherries?" A woman ordering said. "Coming right up." Cindy said. Mike walks up. "Hey." He said. "You want your usual, right?" Cindy asked. "Uh, yeah." Mike said. "So, when are you gonna bring your sisters by? We got this new flavor, Rainbow Explosion. I bet they'll go crazy for it." Cindy said. Mike sees a man roughing grabbing the child by the arm and dragging him away. Cindy turns around. "Mike?" She asked. "HEY!" Mike shouted, then tackles the man and beats him up in a water fountain.
Mike is now on a chair, waiting to be called. "Number 27?" A woman asked. Mike goes to someone's office. "What is your deal, Mike? What are you, some kind of... hate case? You beat up a man in broad daylight; in front of his child." Steve said. "That was a mistake, um... it was a misunderstanding, I-I thought-" Mike stammered. "Just look at your employment record: Tire Zone, sales associate, 2 months, terminated. Media World, custodial staff, 1 week. It's like you're not trying here, yet you sit before me asking for help. I'm just trying to figure out who you are, Mr. Michael Sch-" Steve stops, then looks at him in confusion. "Hmm?" Mike asked. Steve looks at him for a bit longer, then stands up and walks to a counter. "Coffee?" He asked. "Sorry?" Mike asked. "Uh, would you, would you like some... some coffee? I made some coffee." He replied. "No." Mike said.
"I'm-I'm gonna be brutally honest with you here, Mike. Given your track record, your options... are gonna be extremely limited." Steve said. "I'll take anything, okay? Any-any job you got." Mike said. "No. No. Look, I-I-I get that part. Um, it's just... You know, it's not that easy." Steve said as he sat down again. "Yeah. Thank you." Mike said, he stands up and begins to walk away. Steve then turns to him. "I have a job for you." Mike stops and looks at him. "Come on, sit down. Sit, sit, sit, sit, sit." Steve said. Mike comes back to the chair and sits down again. "Okay, uh, well, what is it?" Mike asked. "It's a security gig. Full disclosure: it's not great. Right? High turnover. That's what we call it in the business, but you get to be your own boss. Sort of. And you only have to worry about one thing.
Keeping people out. And-and, you know, and keep the place tidy." Steve said. "That's two things." Mike said. "You want the job or not?" Steve asked. "How's the pay?" Mike asked. "Not great. But the hours are worse." Steve said. Mike shakes his head. "I can't do nights." He mumbled. "Excuse me?" Steve asked. "I can't do nights." He repeated. Steve chuckles. "That's such a shame." He said. "Yeah. Thank you." Mike gets up. "Wait, uh..." Steve quickly stands up and gives him a card. "In case you have a change of heart." He said. Mike takes it from him, then drives home. He sees a small read notice note and takes it off the door.
