Anthony Block is about to receive his PhD when he learns that he must pass an exam testing his reading proficiency in a foreign language. Remembering his painful past in Hebrew school as a child, he decides that he can test only in Biblical Hebrew. But after failing twice, he considers cheating as he faces a third exam. But Anthony experiences an ethical crisis: how can he stand in front of a classroom for the rest of his life if he never earned the right to be there?
