  • Bottomless (w/ Cass Ostrander)

    It’s Scott’s birthday and his girlfriend Liz has a special surprise: a birthday brunch with all his friends at one of the city’s most popular spots. The only thing is, only one person showed up. Waiting nervously for Liz or any of his friends to arrive, Scott makes nervous small talk with Henry, a friendly guy who dates Liz’s roommate, Paige, and seems to know a lot about Scott. As Henry demands he and Scott take full advantage of the restaurant’s bottomless mimosa deal, Scott gets more and more anxious about Henry’s intentions. With Liz constantly texting him about being delayed, and the patrons and servers at the restaurant turning on them, Scott starts to realize this brunch (and all this booze) might be more than he can handle.Starring Spencer D BlairMeadow Kai LilliumCass OstranderLaura PetroHobert ThompsonWith Andrew Melzer as HenryAnd Noah Allyn as ScottPoster design by Jess Fang
