An Army Major finds himself at the bottom of a strange cylinder with no memory of who he is or how he got there. With him are four others: a clown, a ballerina, a hobo, and a bagpiper, all of whom share his memory loss, and all of whom would like to find a way out and discover what has happened to them.
