Isaiah Wright enjoys playing basketball and video games with his friends. While gaming, his mother, Cynthia, asks for help with the groceries, but he doesn’t hear her until later. She wants him to find a job now that he’s graduated high school, hinting at his decision to skip college. Resistant to the idea, Isaiah faces the threat of being kicked out if he doesn’t find work. The next day, he reluctantly goes to Moore Fitness to fill out an application. There, he meets Joshua Moore, the company president, who notices him and asks why he’s there. After Isaiah tries to leave, Joshua invites him to lunch and gives him his business card, suggesting he call when he's ready to answer some questions.
