A story based on Shakespeare's  "Macbeth", that cursed Scottish play, whose influence in a seemingly harmless English assignment has caused an over ambitious student to go just a 'little' too far in trying to have the "most perfect" essay in the whole class.  This story is meant to provide a deep analysis on how sleep and dreaming is presented in the play Macbeth, and what shocking conclusion can be made from the evidence from Shakespeare's other plays.

Geoff and Naomi are dead, and they're depressed, but when Geoff's cat Bernie dies as well, they embark on a wild journey to find it in the underworld. ***** When Geoff dies, alongside his girlfriend Naomi, they end up sharing an apartment in the Underworld as skeletons. But after a few years, Geoff starts suffering a mid-death crisis. What's the purpose of going through the motions as a skeleton if you can't really live? Then he gets word that his cat, Bernie, just died and he can collect him and bring him home! Geoff and Naomi hurry to get Bernie only to discover that, due to a clerical error, their cat has been lost. With the hunt for Bernie giving new purpose to Geoff's un-life, he and Naomi begin a quest to get back their cat. Battling skeleton pirates, climbing the sky ladder and facing off against the villain who took Bernie, Geoff is determined to find his purpose - or die a second time trying!
