off-kilter. Arriving at his office, Ed realises the entire world has been
transformed into a horrifying black-and-white nightmare. Rushing to get help,
Ed begins to question the philosophy of life and, on the brink of a psychotic
breakdown, he realises that he might not be in charge of his own fate.
