Michael Danube, a professional graphic designer who lives in the city with his wife, receives an email that contains a video of Chris Daniels, his former best friend. Chris has become a junkie, and his behavior is delusional and erratic. A map is included with the video. Despite the objections of his wife, Michael decides to make one last attempt to save his friend from drug addiction. Michael promises to return after one week and follows the map to a run-down house, where he hears Chris ranting and shooting a pistol. Michael cautiously approaches the house and announces himself. Chris reacts positively and invites him in, ranting about various subjects. Michael tries to convince Chris to go to rehab, but Chris refuses. Michael uses a stun gun to stun Chris and handcuffs him to a pipe. When Michael returns from a shopping trip, he sees Chris trying to cut through his handcuff with a toothbrush. In the morning, Michael uses the stun gun again to stave off an attempted attack by Chris.
