| Review Summary and Plot Commentary about Finder's Fee |
|---|
Tepper (Eric Palladino) finds a wallet on his way home on a rainy night and puts it in his bag of groceries. When he gets home his girlfriend writes down the numbers from that nights lottery. When she leaves the wallet falls out from the empty grocery bag. Tepper goes through the wallet but can't find any I.D. But he does find a slip of paper with the name Victor and a phone number. He calls it and leaves a message with his name, address and phone number so the man can pick up his wallet. After the call Tepper finds out it is a 6 million dollar winning ticket. At about this time Teppers buddies show up for their usual poker night where their tradition is to play for that weeks lottery ticket. The owner of the wallet shows up and the rest of the night is a very shallow play on morality and greed.
