A down-on-her-luck actress and her lowlife agent husband are clinging to the Hollywood dream in a squalid hotel room.

Max is convinced that Sheila's name will be in lights once it's up in a few more bathroom stalls; Shelia is starting to think she's give it all up for a room with a window. But why would you ever go anywhere when there's always something on TV?
