In Will’s Will (episode 1), we meet Will Sterbenz – single, pushing forty, and grinding through the humdrum routines of a marine cargo insurance agent in middle class suburbia. He has his sights on a promotion, and this time he aims to bag it. But just as Will is gearing up for the big meeting, a stray bullet suddenly bursts through his kitchen window and kills his beloved goldfish – a shock that awakens him to his own mortality…and the human will. As he lays his pet to rest, he vows to finally take charge of his life, starting with his career. So he marches straight to his boss, looks him dead in the eye, and hands him a letter demanding…a DE-motion -- the first step in Will's effort to will.
