Meanwhile, his father, Sam Manning (Billy Crudup), has succeeded in landing a large account at his advertising firm, and calls Josh to celebrate with him. Josh tells him he cannot make it but his father insists. Sam continues to wait at a bar for Josh, who has apparently stood him up, but becomes distracted by a news report of a school shooting incident at Josh's college.
