Part 2/8:
As Frank walks out of prison, the thrilling taste of freedom is tainted with anxiety. The stark reality hits him on the street: he has no job, no social security identification, and no solid plan. Meeting his cousin Don, who initially offers him a place to stay, adds to the duality of his situation—relief at having family and the subconscious shame of being recently incarcerated. Living in a garage and having limited funds accentuates Frank's struggle to reintegrate into society.
