 Two
young girls, Betsy and Maria, are walking in a park one day when Betsy
looks down near a park bench and finds a leather wallet containing $900.
She feels it's "Finders Keepers", while her friend Maria tries
to convince her to turn it in to the authorities to try to find the
owner. Frustrated by her friend's lack of moral virtue, Maria leaves
in a huff, as Betsy slips and falls, hitting her head on the park bench.
As she enters into a dreamlike state, well known celebrities (such as
Al Gore, George W. Bush, and Mother Teresa) keep popping up to tell
her what she should do with the money. A final Round Table of these
characters create a decision which Betsy finally figures out for herself.
