Wm. Stage gets paid to be a nuisance and he is good at it. A process server in St. Louis, bearing bad news to strangers--no wonder people shun him. Apart from this peculiar work, he has his own

adopted 50 years ago is indeed a sociopath. Meanwhile, in yet another meandering attempt to center his life, Wm. desperately seeks a woman with a "friendly womb." Why is he trying to reproduce
like some rutting animal? It takes a series of painful and awakening life-lessons for him to find out.
