A researcher encounters an exotic new strain of ';Backteria' that causes the infected person to vanishleading the doctor on a path of discovery deep into a past he should have left buried. A simple ';Haircut' that starts off as a routine trim becomes a dark and terrifying experience when a barber is confronted with a sick customer who seems otherworldly. A case of mistaken identity leads to a darkly farcical story of marriage, murder, and a love that knows no bounds in ';Getting Together.'
