    JEFF(thinks)

    Ive been taking short cuts my whole life. And they always catch

    up to me. Its how I ended up atGreendale. I saw what my life mighthave been like if I won today, andI know I would have just acted likehow I was before I came here,before I met all of you.

    it takes, were all in thistogether.
