Bummer

LEBOWSKI
As you can see, it is a ransom note.
Sent by cowards. Men who are unable
to achieve on a level field of play.
Men who will not sign their names.
Weaklings. Bums.

THE DUDE EXAMINES THE FAX:

WE HAVE BUNNY. GATHER ONE MILLION DOLLARS IN UNMARKED NON-CONSECUTIVE TWENTIES. AWAIT INSTRUCTIONS. NO FUNNY STUFF.

Bummer.

Sometimes a sequence of events takes you into a situation where you've lost control.
People react to this in different ways.
Some people look back and attempt to analyse what brought them to the circumstance.

Some folk attempt to use their analysis to assist changing the circumstance.
Some don't have any interest in how circumstances develop.
Some folk claim "fate" to be their guiding force.
Some people carve their own future, and don't ever look back.
Then there's the Dude.
He can't change history and he's not aware what influence he could possibly have on the future.
He lives in the Now.
