Constructed somewhat like McDonough's immensely popular and successful Fables, this play has five parts. The five "plots" are connected by a Father Time-like figure who is engrossed with the fun of watching a clock tick away life. Three of the "plots" deal with the strangest blind date imaginable ... in fact it takes a good deal of imagination to accept this blind date as real. These three were published in Read magazine as Blind Date. Interspersed among the blind date segments are a "plot" about a custom-built casket for someone who is terrified of being buried alive and a "plot" about two girls and a dead man in a lifeboat.
