The movie is exactly the length of a DV Tape and a sub-plot is established by showing bits and pieces of video previously recorded on the tape that is being recorded over. The movie starts as a monster of unknown origin destroys a building. As they go to investigate, parts of the building and the head of the Statue of Liberty come raining down. The movie follows their adventure trying to escape and save a friend, a love interest of the main character.

Hey, I'm filming goodbyes for Rob.

Do you want to say something?

Oh, Hud, I don't know.

It's not a really good time right now.

Come on, he's leaving.

-I mean, can we...

-I know.

You're not gonna be able

to talk to him for a while.

Isn't there something you wanna say?

You know what?

Travis, can you get me a drink?

-Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, of course.

-ls that... Okay.

Cool, thanks.

Okay, let's... Right here? I don't...

-No, we can do it in the kitchen.

-Okay, perfect.

Okay.

Okay.

Rob,

I didn't want to do this on camera.

But, I just... I just want you to know

how happy I am for you,

because I know how hard

you've worked for this job

and I know how much it means

to you and...

And I'm really gonna miss you.

Hey. Can I talk to you for a second?

Jason? There's something totally weird

going on with Rob and Beth.

-What are you talking about?

-I'm serious. They're right outside.

-Hud! Not now.

-Okay. I'll check it out.

You never even called me, Rob!

You go and bring some guy to my party?

Hold on! You haven't

talked to me in weeks!

-Hud, man! Come on!

-Sorry!

-What? What?

-I got it. I got it. Hud, get back inside.

-But I'm documenting!

-Not this.

Lily, do you know what

they were fighting about?

Lily, if you know,

you have to tell me. Lily.

I'm not telling you.

I really should know,

as the guy documenting this.

She was the one

who brought me back inside.

-Okay, fine. We'll go find out.

-I'm positive. I promise.

-We'll ask her. We'll go find out.

-She's in the kitchen.

-What?

-Lil!

Lil, do you have something to tell us?

-No.

-You do, don't you?

-What? No.

-Hud, you're a genius.

-You're dodging the question right now.

-There is nothing to tell you.

-Nothing.

-Liar.

Lily, if you know something,

you have to tell us.

-No.

-Look at me.

-Lily.

-I know you. Babe.

Okay, fine, but not on camera.

I'm not telling you on camera.

Okay, that's not a problem.

All right, no problem.

Why would we say anything?

-We won't say anything.

-Rob and Beth slept together.

-Are you serious?

-It happened a few weeks ago.

Beth made me promise

not to say anything.

Are you kidding me, Lily?

Rob and Beth sleep together,

you're not gonna tell me?

-Why wouldn't you tell me?

-Why wouldn't I tell you?

Okay, you guys,

don't ask me where I heard this.

Rob and Beth totally had sex together.

-I knew it.

-Are you kidding me?

No, I'm not kidding.

This is extremely serious.

Hey, Marlena.

-It's me, Hud, from before.

-Hi. Right.

Did you know

that Rob and Beth had sex?

-No.

-Yeah, isn't that crazy?

-They've been friends forever.
