The Prince

Rodge McCullough returns home to finish his Ph.D., gets his
degree three years later, and settles in to take a well-earned
breather. Reed and Gertrude dont dare interfere as their son
pursues his lofty scholar-athlete life at their expense; he is, after
all, only engaging in activities theyve always encouraged. But after
eight years, the activities dont seem so lofty. In fact, they suspect
Rodge has become a slouch and a slob. When they discover he is
also a thief, they coordinate strategies to dislodge him. But Rodge
is resolute: He wont listen, he wont change, and he wont go.
