An old janitor gets a big case of the smarts in this small campus story. |
Summary
|
A school janitor, Fred, suddenly begins to absorb tremendous knowledge. After cleaning a French classroom, he speaks French... A physics lab? He understands physics. But, when he enters the library, he screams in pain as all the knowledge bombards his head. While he and his knew found knowledge are on display, he suddenly runs to the middle of the schools football arena. A UFO comes down and sucks all the knowledge out leaving Fred back as he was. |
Commentary
| The premise of this story, although not original, could have been the basis for the John Travolta film 'Phenomenon." with a littl ebit of "Good Will Hunting". The performers commit 100% to the roles which gives the story integrity. |
