Regardless of having a wealthy girlfriend, Teddy feels that he needs to have a decent job to keep his relationship.
The Catalyst for ChangeA buddy provides him a job as a financial analyst - a position that would potentially bring back Teddy's financial status - but there's one catch: Teddy has to have his GED, a high school equivalency certificate that Teddy does not have due to leaving of academic year ago.
The Night School JourneyLooking to rectify his absence of high school education, Teddy enlists in a night school program at his old high school.
