It turns out that life as we know it is a sophisticated computer simulation. Earth, existence, and consciousness; all the design of a hyper intelligent race of aliens known as the Thesquardorians. On December the 31st, 1974, the Thesquardorians decided the simulation had run its course. This is an absurdist comedy set in a computer lab in the 1970s. Two computer technicians dredging through their graveyard shift on New Yearโ€™s Eve stumble upon the final digit of pi which sends their entire existence spiraling out of control as they come to terms with the fact that it was all a sophisticated computer simulation.
