A tragic car accident at Big Rock injures Joe and kills a migrant worker named Pete, prompting a Social Security office representative to meet with Mary, Joe's wife, to explain the survivor benefits available to Pete's widow and eight children. The story illustrates how Social Security family payments provide monthly assistance based on prior wage contributions, using Pete's family as an example of how the program helps workers' dependents, and follows a migrant worker named Allen who receives a new job opportunity checking and tagging tomatoes while already receiving $67.50 monthly in Social Security benefits.
