Film club sounds perfect. You have always had an interest in the film industry. Video plans in color, black and white, stop-motion and animation whirl through your head as you drive home in the baby blue Ford you fixed up yourself.

Your thoughts are interrupted as you pull up to the little yellow house you share with your older brother, Alex. The two of you work hard to keep this house in shape, having already lost the home in which you once lived with your parents.

As you pull up to the house, you see a dark car parked out front. Alex is standing in the doorway, his blonde hair mussed up like it always is after work, talking to an angry-looking man in sunglasses. Rolling down your window as you cruise down the street, you can hear the tail end of of their conversation. "I've been working overtime for three weeks straight. Once I get the promotion, I can pay you back." Alex looks stressed.

"You're assuming you actually get the promotion. Tom knows you're desperate, but that doesn't mean he's going to give you any special treatment." Tom is Alex's boss. "I loaned you thousands of dollars and it's been months. Do you think I'm an idiot? That wasn't free money, and I want it repaid in full within the week!"

"Wait, I- "

"I don't care about your excuses! One week, or I'm letting Tom know all about your unpaid loans, and you can kiss that promotion goodbye!"

What do you do?

• Appeal to the man's better nature and explain your difficult situation (Abbr1)
• Pretend to be Tom's niece (Abbr1)
