Oz stands at his front door staring at a pile of what looks to be random junk. He finds the motivation to begin packing this gear on. He struggles to make it work as he is unbalanced and overloaded. He shows relief when it is all on and sets out on his journey. We are not sure of where he is going but we see him determined to get there. Deep breaths, sweat and what appear to be big strives and Oz is on his way. We see Oz look frazzled, he appears to be losing his balance. Oz falls backwards and is stuck in the air strapped to all of his belongings feet kicking. We pan out to see that Oz has fallen back on his door mat. Maybe if he were willing to leave his past in the past he could have gotten a lot further.
