Michael Kovacks' only real talent is being humorless. Despite this, he insists on pursuing a standup comedy career. He performs his set at The Void, an infinite black space without a stage or an audience, just him and his jokes in endless empty space.
24-year-old Marcy spends Christmas Eve alone in her apartment. She tells her family that she is out of the city with her boyfriend and tells her boyfriend that she is going home to see her family for the holidays. Instead, she is kept company by a radio, beer and some Thai takeout.
