When a brain is put alone into a cardboard box it's not exactly a brain anymore without the carrier. But when a brain that works in a way like no other is found and made to believe they are making the world a better place, they can be placed in 'the box' and you'll create a unstoppable weapon like no other. 

"Esme was never like the other children. She saw every little detail there is to the world and through her art managed to create a scene so vivid in emotion. We still search for her everyday, hoping that one day the missing girl will be returned home to her family".

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!
