Religious counselor type asks his subject to guess at the solution to resolving the tension between the physical and the spiritual. The five things which are important in life. Confession. The prison psychologist recording: don't trust angels and the save my ass daily declaration. A woman talks about what she likes. Life as a series of forgetting. A disappearing girlfriend.
