"My Melancholy Baby" takes a look at 48 hours into the difficult life of the Burrows family. This story is told through the eyes of the older son, Miles Burrows, a 19 year old drug addict who hasn't been home because his home life is the underlying reason for his addiction.

Why do we all get a little “rush” when we open our doors to see a shiny new package on our door step? Dopamine, and we’re all addicted. So what happens when they cut our supply?

Zach and Kayla Wheeler are trying to cope with the loss of their mother after her funeral. Kayla is the younger sister who is still grieving and Zach is the older brother who is now about to take legal guardianship over his little sister. Life will be hard going forward but they'll rely on each other to get through this difficult time.

“Glass of Scotch” revolves around an underground game of poker hosted by a homosexual mob boss. When a mysterious hand sprinkles poison in the boss’s drink, a tangled web of lies begins to unravel exposing everyone’s true colors. What begins as a celebratory poker night quickly turns into a tale of family, betrayal and death.
