It's the last night for the Red Lobster at the edge of an old mall in New England. The night is snowy and there are not many customers. Tomorrow, the restaurant will close forever. A perfect time to listen in as employees talk together and discuss the difficulties of living in 21st century America on a tight budget with a small circle of acquaintances. The manager relates the minute-by-minute events of the last evening, the snow falling, the troubled staff, the customers who drift in.
