Jeff, Who Lives at Home Page #6

Synopsis: Jeff, at 30, lives in his mom's basement, unemployed, looking for signs about what to do with his life. He answers a wrong-number call for "Kevin". Later, on a bus, he sees someone wearing a jersey with "Kevin" on the back. Jeff follows him. Meanwhile, Jeff's brother, Pat, a tone-deaf salesman, upsets his wife by buying a Porsche they cannot afford; Pat runs into Jeff soon after and they see Pat's wife with another man. At her job, Jeff and Pat's mom receives e-mails from a secret admirer; she tries to figure out who it is. Misunderstandings, errors, and confrontations abound. A backup on the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway brings things to a head.

- Jeff!

- Sir, we got to help him. We got him.

Do something! Jesus!

Sir, sir.

Jeff!

- He's not moving!

- Starting CPR!

Get off me! Leave me alone!

You need to sit down!

One, two, three, four,

five, six, seven, eight...

Jeff, wake up!

- Jeff!

- Still not responding.

Can you hear me?

Hey, hey, you okay?

Hey.

Sir?

- Are you okay?

- Oh, God.

Let's get blankets!

Sir, stay still.

Let me sit up.

What happened?

Everything.

I'm hungry.

And coming up next,

the story of two girls, their father,

and the man who was

in the right place at the right time.

The car that was behind us

crashed into the back of us

and then we went over the bridge.

And then this man,

he just came and broke our window...

And he almost died doing it.

If we had lost our dad,

you know,

I just really can't even imagine it.

We're just really thankful he was there.

We'll be right back with that rescue tale

of local councilman Kevin Landry

and his two little girls.

All that and more when we come back.
