Description: Wilfred Funai, an unassuming office worker, retreats from the condescending smirks of co-workers by surreptitiously sucking the insides of chocolate candies. The insensitive staff members put a pair of women's lingerie in his sandwich forcing Wilfred to eat lunch at a local cafe. He is seated near two men, one of whom appears ill. When the sick man begins to choke, surrounding diners, fearing that he has AIDS, refuse to help. Overcoming his own trepidation, Wilfred steps in to administer CPR and saves the man's life. Returning to the office, the self-effacing protagonist proudly announces his heroic deed.
