"Big Al" Leo, an amateur writer and Al Pacino’s biggest- you might say obsessed- fan is given the opportunity of a lifetime to write a screenplay for his hero Al. With his good friend, Ricky, the two come up with a plot for the movie while Leo proposes wilder and wilder hypothetical situations about what they may have to do to get the movie made. Making it his reason for living, Leo makes it to clear to Ricky that he is dangerously close to going over the edge. 2. "Hammered: A Thor and Loki Play" As Thor struggles with the stress of final exams, his brother Loki finds himself under a different sort of pressure. Neither are beneath pranks in the endless competition for their parents' favor. But underneath all the thunder and mischief, these two Princes of Asgard discover a bond that will last millennia. 3. "The House on the Hill off the Boulevard at the End of the Sidewalk" A detective is called to investigate a missing person’s case and finds himself seemingly involved in a 1940s film noir.
