- Scene 1: Zach is seen enjoying a smokey treat as he plays on his bass guitar as his phone begins to ring. Axl is calling to convince Zach to investigate a man named Ronnie for their open roadie position. Zach reluctantly accepts, and goes back into playing harp.
Scene 2: Zach walks to door and begins to knock as he becomes interrupted by the sound of shattering glass. He looks over the corner of the house to see an odd man dressed as a milkman coming down the street, throwing milk bottles at houses. The man walks with a certain chaotic atmosphere that makes itself present upon his approach to Zach. Zach finds Ronnie to be repulsive and vulgar, yet follows him inside.
Scene 3: Zach looks around as Ronnie walks in front of him, and upon inquiring on his milkman attire, Ronnie goes into a trance. As Zach reaches out to see if Ronnie is alright, an aggressive shift in tone is felt as Ronnie grabs a hold of Zach. Zach pushes Ronnie away and attempts to leave, only to have Ronnie desperately beg for him to stay. Ronnie sweetens the deal with a bag of a mysterious substance. Zach once again follow Ronnie deeper into the basement.
Scene 4: Ronnie asks Zach to have a seat as he proceeds to go into another room. As Zach's eyes acclimate to the darkness of the basement, he begins to take a look around and sees interesting sculptures around the room. The sculptures are a fusion of cardboard and mannequin parts that resemble the band of American Denim. Upon looking at the sculpture labeled Zach, a cardboard cutout with the mouth region cut out, Zach becomes worried and infuriated at what is going on. He rushes into the other room, only to see the grotesque sight of Ronnie feeding putrid milk to cockroaches living inside the chest cavity of a mannequin. Zach begins to leave, as Ronnie begins to beg him to stay, as he runs around the room hooking up a faulty guitar and amp into a milk crate. Before Zach can answer, Ronnie run upstairs to grab some milk. Zach finds this a good time to call Axl and explain him the situation. Zach finally satisfied with the crazy, decides to make his escape.
Scene 5: Ronnie is rummaging through the fridge, as Zach quietly looks at him from the stairs behind him. The focus now shifting into Ronnie's mind, the fragments and sadness of his mind exhume outwardly affecting the bubble around him. Zach witnesses Ronnie's breakdown and decides to use it to help his escape as he sprints for the door and runs. The sound triggers Ronnie and alone he remains, a broken man covered in his own mucus, putrid milk, and tears.
