Once upon a time, in a land of endless coffee cups, Steve couldn't sleep. He lay in bed, staring at the ceiling, wondering if the 3 AM thoughts were just a product of a caffeine-fueled imagination or a real, honest-to-goodness existential crisis.

Steve's sleep-deprived brain started to get the better of him. He began to wonder if the world outside was as crazy as his thoughts. He imagined his neighbors as sleepwalking zombies, his coworkers as robots, and his in-laws as... well, that's just too much for anyone.
