Guy Bishop is your normal twenty-something hard working fella who washes cars in the detail shop at Bill Bradley Chevrolet in Paris, Ohio. His hum-drum life is just that, hum-drum. Each day is the same, he wakes up, gets ready, and he's off to work. His co-workers share pretty much the same lifestyle, and together they try to make the best of it. The one thing these lowly wash rack employees always look forward to are the Friday afternoon lunch outings, usually to a favorite eating establishment, and usually within short driving distance from their shop. One particular Friday, the gang decides to head to "Toto's Bar & Grill," to eat some tasty chicken wings, and play some Keno during their hour long lunch break. On the way back to work, an incident on the interstate highway has forced all the big-rig semis to use the same road they travel on to get back to the shop, and the driver struggles with the one thing he fears the most, driving too close to those big-rig semis! This leads to an unfortunate event, a tragic accident of which Guy concludes (after some serious thinking) that he's been killed in. Guy suddenly finds himself caught between the world of the living, and the world of the dead. At first he has no idea of what to do, until he finally runs into some other lost wandering souls, just like him, who are caught in this dull and timeless place. The only way to move on is to find your door, but those doors are hard to come by, and if you even think of "sticking around" that door disappears in a heartbeat, and it might be quite some time before you see another one. Some of these souls are sticking around on purpose, so they can try to finish what they started before they died. All they have to do is find a way back to the living world, it's possible to do but-it's no easy task! (Parental Discretion Is Advised)
