He is sued for crashing his car into a house and now owes a large amount of damages to the homeowner. In a panic, Paul tries to transfer his interest in the trust to the homeowner. He also initiates bankruptcy proceedings to have his gambling debts paid by the trust. Finally, he convinces the trustee to pay off his debt to the homeowner.
