Celebrity Exit

Robin is literally locked in their apartment to finish their past-due manuscript. Despite a deluge and power failure, a call comes through the landline that not only convinces Robin that communication from the "great beyond" is possible but also offers the perfect ending for their book about Stephen King. A spooky-silly short.
