Synopsis/Details
Bonnie and Chandler Fide are eager to fit in after moving into their new house at the end of a cul-de-sac. The neighborhood is clean. The air is fresh. Everything is oddly perfect even if speed walking/talking, nosy people with weird patches on their arms who are always chowing down on protein bars, are their new neighbors, and want them to go to a party. Chandler thinks it's a pyramid scheme. Bonnie thinks the bars taste like trash, but they agree to go if they don't purchase anything. But, before arriving, Chandler ends up scarfing down a whole sample bar while wearing the patch and goes into full spaz mode as the party devolves into a strangely charged game of Twister, prompting Bonnie to leave and stumble upon the horrifying main ingredient that has been giving everyone so much energy.
