Willy Loman has broken the car again. He says that he was admiring the trees. However, his wife, Linda, knows that he is mentally very tired, and that he wants to kill himself. The whole family lies to him, to satisfy him.

Next day, Biff goes to Oliver, and after six hours, Oliver passes him. Willy is at the same time not successful either, because Howard has fired him.
That evening, Biff and Willy have a very serious talk. Biff...
