This 50 foot-long piece, which includes a cliff-hanger ending, was created to wrap around the walls and architectural elements of its initial exhibition venue, 40000, in Chicago. A resolution to the cliff-hanger ending was added on and exhibited three months later at the Hyde Park Art Center, also in Chicago.

Includes internal musings on office supplies and believing in ghosts vs. science.
