In a dark black day, Dr. McCoy delivered a baby boy. His father named his first child after himself. Lawrence Exeter Jr. saw the light of day and was amused by it. He lived an ordinary life up until he was seven years old. Lawrence attended Palisades School for Boys and grew up with many hardships. He used to be bullied and laugh that because he was less fortunate than the other children. His father promised him that if he passed the third marking period, he would be able to have his own bike. This became Lawrence’s ultimate goal for the whole school year. He worked non-stop until he knew he was going to pass.

On one day in April, Lawrence Exeter Sr. called his son downstairs and presented his new bicycle. Lawrence was memorized by his bike and road it around the block. The bicycle gave him a sense of freedom that he never felt before. This began his mindset for the rest of his life. Lawrence wanted complete freedom. He experienced six years in Columbia Military Academy and hated it. He lost almost every single freedom and became chronically depressed. Through thick and thin, Lawrence passed that stage with excellent marks and was accepted into Stanford University. His father gave him another present, a brand new Cadillac. Lawrence drove the car and felt the same freedom as when he was a small boy. Lost in lust over freedom, Lawrence gets into a minor accident.

Lawrence was very excited for college because of all the liberty he would have. Instead of having complete freedom, Lawrence was bombarded with work and restrictions. He almost dropped out, so his father hired a tutor named Daisy. He grew up to hate Daisy, because to him, she was another restriction to his dream. Daisy worked around his gloomy attitude because of her good will. Through all three years, Lawrence was able to achieve in school and left it all behind him. Lawrence needed to escape everyday life, so for that summer, he went to France. Lawrence stood in France for a good amount of time and felt the freedom to do whatever he wanted. There was no one to tell him what to do or what he should do. Lawrence came back to the California, where he found his true love, Marie.

In 1926, Lawrence plans to marry Miss Marie Whaston. Together, they get married and go to Hawaii for their honeymoon. They stay at the Ambassador Hotel and partied that whole time. At first, their relationship looked perfect. Lawrence thought he found the lucky lady that would explore his freedom; however, this was not the case. Over the years, Lawrence had to spend his money on his wife with constant anniversaries. He began to realize that being in a commitment like marriage would mean many sacrifices. After seeing dangerous changes in her husband, Marie Exeter signed her husband for anger management. Lawrence went to two private sessions with Tony Spagoni.

To Lawrence, Tony Spagoni reminded him of Daisy and he hated it. After two meetings, Lawrence promised to Marie that his problems were all worked out. In November, Lawrence filed for divorce and hired Miss Flossie Wentworth to represent him. Once the hearings began, Lawrence could not contain himself. He hated not being able to speak and defend himself. He flipped out in the room and began cursing out the whole system of justice. Because of his outbursts, Lawrence had to pay the full amounts to his former wife and firms. Lawrence began a destructive road.

After losing all his money, Lawrence went delusional. He had very little to his name and had no freedom. After living two weeks without sufficient funds, Lawrence believed the world owed him. He filed a suit with Tony Spagoni, suing the judge for not doing his job properly. His claim was all the money he lost in his divorce to Marie. Tony knew this case didn’t have a shot, but it was easy money. One day later, Peter Ventizzi countersued on his account of threaten his life over the weeks after the divorce. Lawrence lost all the money to his name. Lawrence went into his car and drove recklessly. He completely demolished his car. He was in critical state in Hollywood Hospital, where he was born and now dying. He was told by the doctor that if he comes out of this injury he would not be able to walk.

In his wheelchair, Lawrence looked at the medical bill and screamed his head off. Not only is he unable to walk, but he has to pay for it, too. Lawrence kills himself by rolling his wheelchair off a hill in his last chance for freedom. Lawrence was hit by an on-coming truck. Lawrence was laid in the mortuary. His Father paid off the doctor’s bills and his funeral expenses. All throughout his life, Lawrence Exeter Jr. was on the search for true freedom and only found it in death. Now, Lawrence has rested in peace. His ghost wanders endlessly in the afterlife looking for freedom
