In latter-day Manhattan, mere mortals co-exist with classical entities. One such entity is Allissandra (Teri Lamm), a Muse who is consumed with despair over the decision of Fate (Ryan Dunn) to off her lover, the young composer Ralph. Numbering among the deceased composer's friends are John (Ed Vassallo) and Zoe (Sarah Winkler), novelists who have been married for seven years; John's friend Jonas (Charles Tuthill), a musician and conductor; Cedric (Gordon Elliott), a British museum curator; and Cedric's very young girlfriend Karen (Kat Gang), a painter. Also in the picture are Fame (Bridget Moynahan) and Fortune (Vivienne Benesch), who promise to give Ralph's work the recognition it deserves. Eventually, the depressed Allissandra realizes that she's had enough of Fate, and rallies Fame, Fortune, Cause & Effect (Robin Dorian), and the male Muse David (Holter Graham) around her to make a provocative wager with the entity.
