Mein Name ist John Doe. Das Fehlende in mir ist schrecklich. Und wissen Sie, was es so schrecklich macht? Nein, natürlich wissen Sie es nicht, denn Sie sind nicht ich. Sie sind nicht … dieser John Doe. Ich erzähle Ihnen, was so schrecklich ist. Ich verliebe mich voll und ganz in diese wunderbare und wunderbar schöne Dahlia Flower … in meine Retterin.

Deciding to sell the family timber business and give away his wealth to charity, Arthur’s family become convinced that he has lost his mind.
