(2) 4-6 Ruby Miller (future colleague of Steven Spielberg) is caught with a can of spray paint in front of a graffiti-covered wall and sentenced to fifty hours of community service with "the seventh-grade version of Dumb and Dumber." But she has more important things to focus on, such as the truth about her father, whom she's convinced is a top-secret CIA operative. Nelson infuses her cinematic narrative with Ruby's determined idealism.
