A middle-aged man named Brad lives with his wife Doris and their talking puppet-dog Buddy in a suburban household TV show. A man named Chief Wayne visits them regularly, and he and Doris make immature butt and poop jokes. When they make these comments about Buddy, he runs outside and castrates himself. Brad notes how recently their show has become more dumb and absurd, to the point where their backyard constantly changes scenery and he no longer recognizes Doris. He tries to hold a funeral for Buddy, but Doris and Chief Wayne get absorbed in a dark reality TV show instead. Buddy reawakens, runs out into the yard with his genitals, and the three follow him outside. The backyard has transformed into a field of corpses, who tell Brad that they’re casualties of the Balkan civil war. Brad sympathizes with them, but Doris and Chief Wayne criticize him for being such a downer. On TV, an "UrgentUpdateNewsMinute" comes on and informs them that children in the Philippines are starving to death. Brad proposes that they redistribute some of their own wealth to the Filipino children, who show up at their door asking for food, but Doris and Chief Wayne mock him for his idea that they should share at all.  Brad leaves and walks back into see Doris and Chief Wayne having sex, but they reveal there is actually a thin layer between them and it was really a prank for another reality TV show. He gets angry but realizes what he has to do to make Doris happy, so he sends away Chief Wayne and the Filipino children. He and Doris have sex. After a commercial break, Doris’ family comes to visit for dinner, and another news update informs them that thousands of children in Africa are dying of AIDs. Brad hears screaming, and he goes outside to find that the rain is hurting the corpses, so he drags them inside to protect them. Doris gets incredibly angry and locks him out, and when he comes back inside, he finds that she has now married Chief Wayne and they have rewritten their story without him. A baby from Africa with AIDs appears in their living room, and the other family members propose putting him on the roof so they don’t have to deal with him. Brad is horrified, and decides he will save both the corpses and the baby himself. He loads them into his car and prepares to drive away, but the police come and put him in a van that writes him out of the TV show plot. In the floating gray abyss of the unwritten space, Brad tries to remember who he is so that he doesn’t get erased and rewritten into something else. His mind drifts to the sad stories and people he couldn’t save, and he forgets himself.
