Marco was offered a promotion. His boss wants to open a new branch in Ohio with his
business partner and Marco would be head of marketing. However, Marco doesn’t want
to move to Ohio because it’s boring. Marco came up with a plan/scheme to send Todd to
Ohio in his place. He recommends Todd as a better candidate for the promotion and he
hopes to get rid of him. Marco’s plan backfires and Todd gets a promotion and stays in
NYC because the business partner in Ohio was arrested for embezzlement.
