I Am the Messenger Part 4 / Chapter 6 Summary

god bless the man with the beard, the missing teeth, and the poverty

  • The very next day Ritchie actually starts looking for a job. For real. That's quite a transformation, isn't it?
  • Next up on Ed's list: Marv. Pretty quickly, Ed decides it's about money for Marv—after all, he's the cheapest guy alive—yet he's always bragging how he has $40,000 in the bank. Ed thinks that's a sore spot.
  • But though Ed gets that it's about money, he's still not sure what he should say or how to go about it.
  • When someone on the street asks Ed for some spare change, he figures it out: he'll ask his friend for money.
