Vic is recovering in bed with COVID when he’s startled by a ghostly apparition of his late mother…dressed as a hypebeast. While he tries to ignore the hallucination, Vic is chased from room to room by other apparitions of his father, his friends, and his family members who remind him of a life he’s neglecting. Vic starts to acknowledge his mother and makes amends with his past. He lays his head on her lap, and enjoys a memory they enjoyed together when she was alive.
