The story of an abusive alcoholic who wakes up in an abandoned apartment after a black-out. A man on the floor comes to consciousness in an empty apartment – no furniture, no décor on the walls, no gas in the stove. He has only his cell phone, a jacket, and a hangover. Elsewhere in the city, his wife is in a kitchen, harried by three rambunctious children, angry at her husband. She leaves a message on his cell phone that the marriage is over. He calls his friend Jimmy to tell him to bring over some beer. Then, a young woman he does not know walks into the apartment. What is going on?
