A dishevelled and diorientated man wearing an anorak struggles, successfully, to park his car in the driveway of his rural homestead after a night at his local pub. As the car rolls to it’s stationary place of rest for the night, the man laughs maniacally to himself. He opens the door, and before he can get out of the car, falls asleep against the wheel.
