Oswald leaves Dallas after getting fired from his job and returns to New Orleans - the city of his birth - looking for a fresh start. After securing the only job he can find - as the greaser of coffee machinery for the Reily Coffee Co. - he sends for his pregnant wife, Marina, and their daughter June. But Oswald’s time in New Orleans would be marred by more failure: He would soon be fired for poor performance. He also dove deeper into political activism, which would lead to his arrest. Meanwhile, tragedy would strike President and Mrs. Kennedy.
