Description:A man going through a messy annulment tries to gain the upper hand in a settlement negotiation with his estranged wife, but all he has to barter is his beloved Toyota clunker.

A middle-aged woman traumatized by a childhood experience is on the verge of creating her true self as a sociopath. A shut-in plagued by mental illness holes up at his run-down residence with his handgun and prepares for the worst, when a mysterious “Utility Man” arrived at his door and offers to clean his yard for free.

Out of nowhere, a blackhole appears beside their table, threatening to upend their assumptions about reality and existence. Should they engage it, even at the expense of a good time on a Friday night?
