What a good story arc. Andy starts in one place and is offered the opportunity for reform. He is grateful for his reprieve and finally is able to bring about the change necessary in his life. Very good interpretation of the prompt. Also, good character character insight. While there is action and conflict in the story, this is more about character development.
