Two college buddies meet up after many years away from school. One was particularly bright in college but is currently out of work and seeking an income. The other was less studious but is now an executive in charge of research at a large corporation. The executive tells about a problem they are having at the plant. The other reminds him of a paper he wrote in college that could solve all their problems if it was implemented. They agree to partner on the plan and share the benefits that will surely arise from this process. Later, upon visiting the executive, the out of work man discovers he has been swindled and cheated of his due for discovering the process. Irate, he plots restitution.

Engaging episode. If it had been I, I would have just gone to a rival corporation with the process. Ghost story.
