Daniel Wallace | Extraordinary Adventures

Season 2000 Episode 2017 | 26m 46s

Edsel Bronfman works as a junior executive shipping clerk for an importer of Korean flatware. He lives in a seedy neighborhood & spends his free time with his mother. Things happen to other people, & Bronfman knows it. Until, that is, he gets a call telling him that he’s won a free weekend at a condo in Florida. But there's a catch - the offer is for a couple so he has to find one quickly.
