[[Arthur Read|Arthur]] is walking on the Earth when he spots a present in the front yard of his house. It has a tag that instructs, "Do not open 'til midnight." Arthur checks his watch, and it reads 11:55. He hovers into his bedroom with the present, and sleeps until midnight. Lightning flashes, and the present shakes. A tiny [[D.W. Read|D.W.]] jumps out. Arthur runs downstairs, but D.W. copies are flooding the house. When he opens the door, D.W. shouts, "I can do anything I want now! I'm rich! And it's all thanks to you!" Arthur asks, "How could I let this happen?" | [[Arthur Read|Arthur]] is walking on the Earth, when he spots a present in the front yard of his house.
