![]() Andrew's been out of touch for a while (working on another "project" in Mexico), but when he shows up at Ben and Anna's door late one night looking for a place to crash, the two men fall right back into arrested adolescence. Ben and Andrew are old friends with an ostentatiously intense bond. Andrew is a free-as-a-breeze "artist" who has yet to create any art.
