When Frank gets a few anecdotes published in Reader’s Digest, he submits his writing samples to Ray’s editor, hoping to get his own column in the newspaper. Frank, feeling he has a new lease on life, convinces Ray to submit his story ideas for the column, which he plans to call ””I Was Just Thinking.”” Ray then has to break the news to his father that the editor thinks Frank’s writing is the most embarrassing work he’s ever read.
