I am in all humans, yet I am not part of the body. 
    I infect the mind, yet I am not a disease. 
    I make people give up, yet I am not death. 
    I can be conquered, yet I have no cure.  
    I am a weakness, yet I have unlimited power. 
    What am I?
    
    Fear.
    
    Doesn't seem like much for a four letter word, doesn't it? 
    
    It does. 
    
    Aquaphobia. Monophobia. Trypophobia. Or, to put it simply, phobias in general. 
    
    It doesn't matter what the prefix is. 
    
    Because all that matters is that a fear is a fear. 
    
    And everyone has a fear.

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!
