The protagonist, when going to the job interview, is ready for any questions and any scenario. But it's impossible to be ready to what is going to happen. The forgotten passport is the most inoffensive thing among all the forthcoming whirligigs. But neither a meticulous security guard, a horny old charwoman, an experimental drug, nor robbers with SWAT - nothing will stop our protagonist from getting the best job in the world. One only needs to believe in oneself!
