Forrest wins two more matches, and then he’s ordered to throw a match to a wrestler called The Professor. Dan has an idea that will let Forrest quit wrestling and make them a lot of money at the same time. He says that someone has let everyone know in advance that Forrest is supposed to lose to The Professor. Dan intends to bet their ten thousand dollars on Forrest to win. Jenny says it’s dishonest and doesn’t want any part of it, but Forrest is determined to try. The Professor outsmarts him in the match and manages to win by tying Forrest up with yarn and then pinning him. They lose their ten thousand dollars, but are paid the two thousand that Forrest was initially promised for his loss. When they get home, Jenny is gone. She has left a note for Forrest saying that it’s breaking her heart, but she can’t be with him anymore. She says he’s changed too much. For the first time in his life, Forrest says he actually knows what it means to be an idiot.
