The plot consists of a married couple having no idea that there is a nuclear war going on outside because that their cat cut the television cables while they were fighting because of a game of scrabble. The thing that grabbed my attention is that I think this short clip is trying to tell us television is a vital tool and people are so dependant to it that without it, they can not even realise that a nuclear war is going on outside their house. And I did not expect a plot twist like this, it was highly surprising for me and it left me thinking about the video.
