When his ailing grandfather gives him a completely blank check with nothing but a signature and bank account number, Theo is torn between the fear of the check bouncing and the possibility of not getting the most out of his grandfather's final gift. What Theo discovers, however, is that this decision isn't purely a matter of numbers on a check, but a valuable metaphor for the importance of taking risks and pursuing your highest potential in life.
