It's getting toward the end of the month and as usual, Alan is worried about the same old thing, how much money he has left. He's been checking his pockets, and has found a whole five pockets full of nothing... His lodger, Jonathan, has been living in Alan's spare room for three months, but has never paid rent, so Alan is going to bite the bullet and ask for the fifty dollars he owes - but all Jonathan seems to do is stay in his room and recite Shakespeare. Then while listening to the radio Alan hears of an Angus McPhearson from Scotland who passed away twenty years ago and so far there have been no claims to his fortune. Alan thinks it might be his uncle and that he's the only remaining heir. Maybe his luck is about to change!
