Synopsis
- A woman suffers from insomnia.
- The men in her apartment building who annoy her mysteriously disappear, leaving their clothes and a whiff of perfume behind.
- A wealthy businessman's car breaks down in the ghetto.
- He imagines homeless people taking over his house.
- He is picked up by the insomniac woman, realizes that he is her landlord, and is drugged, dressed as a woman, handcuffed to a locked briefcase, and kidnapped.
- He is put in a limo, remembers meeting a woman dressed as Jesus in a bar, is left in the woods.
- Joe discusses the significance of the man's story.
