" Contents of the Dead Man's Pocket" Plot Change

Tom Benecke decision was wrong in the first place. His wife just asked him if he wanted to got to the movies and he chooses to do his work. The result of his choice was his yellow piece of paper flew out the window and he would carry it every where he went and so his paper is lost. The decision I would have made if my husband asked me if I want to go to the movies with him even I had work to do my remark would be yes. Paper work could get finished after you come back from the movies or on your free time. The plot would change by my decision because there would be no cause and effect or any complications.
