Alice's best friend, Teddy, wins the lottery on a ticket she bought for his eighteenth birthday. As Alice sees fame and fortune change Teddy for the worse, she wonders if their friendship (or hopefully more) can be repaired. With eloquent and reflective prose, Smith captures Alice's conflicting emotions and brings the consequences of Teddy's sudden wealth to a logical, and ultimately satisfying, conclusion.
