Alex the Gofer

Alex bekommt die Chance, seine Theaterträume wenigstens ein bisschen zu verwirklichen: Er wird Produktionsassistent bei einem neuen Stück. Sein Arbeitsalltag beim Theater aber ist enttäuschend.

Alex, who loves the theater, takes a part time job as a gofer for a young producer and director, but soon feels mistreated by his younger bosses. Louie, spying on Alex at his new job, spots Alex being humiliated and uncharacteristically does not make fun of him; rather, he tries to convince Alex to stand up for himself and tell the director off. Alex is considering this when the director suddenly has a change of heart and apologizes for mistreating Alex and ignoring one of his earlier suggestions. As a result, Alex regains his dignity.
