Hi. I'm retiring. I'd like to start receiving my Social Security benefits.
Hmm. I'm sorry, Mr. Wessels. It says here you're already collecting your benefit.
What? How can that be? Are you suggesting someone has stolen my identity, committing fraud?
It's a possibility, yes.
Oh, my God.
...
I'm number nine. Sorry. I was in the bathroom. Prostate, you know. Size of a basketball. Hi. I'd like to start my benefits.
Um... Mr. Ramirez? It says here you're dead.
...
Uh, I'm-I'm number nine.
Hi.
Can you... tell me what my benefits would be if I were to retire right now?
Of course. Um, Mr. Gallagher, it says here you only worked six weeks your entire life.
Well... if you mean a "formal job", yes, but I... I've had various enterprises that contributed significantly to the economy.
Mm-hmm. Well, as it stands, this will be your monthly benefit.
Three dollars and 42 cents? Gee. That's not a lot, is it?
Sorry.
A guy works his whole life.
