Heading home late at night during a heavy rainstorm, Glen (Vincent Kartheiser, "Mad Men") drives over a plank of nails and must seek help at a nearby house. There, he’s welcomed in by Art (Bob Stephenson), who after a bit of friendly chitchat, cajoles Glen into sleeping with his younger wife, Cyndi (Chelsea Lopez). Glen’s unease over this arrangement is significant, and it only escalates when, a short time afterwards, he’s visited at home by Art, who shows him a videotape of a pregnant Cyndi in the shower. Art convinces Glen that he’s now responsible for Cyndi, and it’s not long before the two are cohabitating in an apartment that, like the rest of the mystery-box world presented by assured first-time filmmaker Rob Schroeder, seems to exist on the other side of reality.
