Narrator: And if the collapse of the housing market, his lack of auditions, or even the Writers' Strike, couldn't deter Tobias from his dream, the suicide of his ruined and despondent agent certainly could.
Priest: I believe he died as a warning, in a way, his message perhaps to live within our means and be realistic about our lives.
Narrator: And yet it didn't.
Tobias: Well, then I shall redouble my efforts so that he died in vain. Meaning he will have led a pointless life, is what I mean. Yes, carry on. Thank you.
