A possible break in his fortunes occurs when he receives a script from a student in the seminar he has been conducting at a nearby college\u2014a thriller that Sidney recognizes immediately as a potential Broadway smash. Sidney\u2019s plan, devised with his wife\u2019s help, is to offer collaboration to the student for co-credit. Or is it?
