Bobby tries to keep a good face and stubbornly clings to the usual benefits of civilization: a nice house with a mortgage outstanding, expensive car, a golf club. Chairman of the Board of Directors of the GTX James Salinger is facing a similar dilemma. Pretending to shareholders that the company's all right, it continues to build a new office building elegant, simultaneously signing orders on the reduction. One of the top managers and friend of James - Jean McCleary, encourages him to think about the fate of discharged.

    Phil Woodward, after a thirty-year career in the company, was dismissed, and neighbors continued to pretend that every day goes to work. McCleary is trying to stand up for him, but he gets the notice of dismissal. Unable to withstand the shock and unable to compete with the young, Woodward commits suicide. Meanwhile, Bobby Walker is forced to leave the house and move to live with their parents. After scandals and persuasion of his wife, he agrees to take a job as a carpenter at the brother-Jack Dolan.

    James Salinger plagued by remorse. After large-scale reductions in the value of shares on the market GTX unexpectedly rose and James managed to earn even in times of crisis. While agreeing with the arguments of Gina, he decides to stop "trading air" and revive the shipbuilding business GTX. One of the first taken back to work becomes Bobby.
