Opportunity in the form of a goddess knocks on the door of the 1912 Democratic National Convention while Alton B. Parker and William Jennings Bryan fight inside. Former New York Governor and 1904 Democratic presidential nominee Alton B. Parker headed the Baltimore convention which went through several votes without a candidate receiving a majority. Opportunity considers moving on to the next door which bears a sign reading "Progressive Party Founded by Tried True T.R."
