A family are driving on a verdant but isolated road. Danny's father, Jack, is a writer who has taken a job as winter caretaker at The Overlook Hotel. They are accompanied by Dannie's mother, Wendy.

Danny's father is a writer for the prestigious publisher, Shitty No Sleep. He is hoping the peace and isolation of The Overlook Hotel will help him resolve his writer's block.

Ever since Danny was a boy he had special talents. He was mentored in telepathy and prognostication by a man in his neighbourhood - Manny. Manny told Danny to call him if he ever needed help.

Danny rode his tricycle around the empty hotel hallways. Meanwhile the adults explored the hotel.

As Danny turned a corner, he was suddenly on top of a mountain in China. He was breathless as though he had climbed a thousand steps. There were two twins in front of him. Before he could greet them they started throwing stones. The stones became larger and larger. Until they pushed a boulder the size of a car.

The boulder closed in on Danny as he screamed. His whole world went black under the boulder, then he was back in the hotel on his tricycle again.

Jack found a bar and decided to poor himself a drink. Alcohol had been a major problem for Jack - it was part of the reason he lost his job as a teacher and came to The Overlook Hotel. As he turned he was surprised to find a bartender standing behind the bar.

"Who are you!?" Jack said in shock, "I thought everyone had left for the winter."

"Sir, I am always here," said the bartender, "Would sir like a drink?"

Days turned into weeks, weeks turned into months. Jack retreated further and further into an alcoholic blur. He spent hours in a room writing. The tick tick tick of the typewriter could be heard in surrounding rooms. Jack demanded that he not be disturbed.

Jack was down at the bar again, so Wendy decided to clean up the room.

While she was cleaning she started reading the book. Her eyes widened in terror as she read page after page of the same words.

At that moment Danny screamed. Wendy rushed to comfort her son. Rushing into the room, he had written "Rednit" in lipstick on the wall.

"Rednit, Rednit, Rednit," Danny murmured while rocking back and forth. While Wendy was hugging Danny to calm him down, she saw the writing in the mirror...

"Tinder," she said, freezing in place, "so you want a new daddy?"

"Yeah, after he dragged us out to this shithole," stated Danny.

Danny used his telepathy to call Manny to pick them up. Once they were in phone reception range, Wendy used Tinder to find a Chris Hemsworth look-a-like to be Danny's daddy.

And Jack? He finished writing his story. However when he returned he found an empty office in place of Shitty No Sleep publishing. The Overlook had IPOed and couldn't monetise Shitty No Sleep publishing.

Jack stares intently at a black and white picture. There is a large group of people, with him at the front.

Underneath the picture is a caption:

Shitty No Sleep 2
