"Wait...
this looks familiar."
The Mayfly (Brad Griffith) is born.
The
Mayfly enters this life with a slap... and an accusation of
murder
from the doctor (Libby West), as his mother died in childbirth.
In school, a nun puts the fear of God into him.
"Praise Jesus!"
Still wanted for the murder of his mother, the Mayfly is put on
trial and sentenced to death...
until they find he's only three minutes old. So he's sent
to juvie until his four-minute birthday.
Life in juvie.
Praying for a better life. Or at least one he can make
sense of.
When he gets out, he's off to the front lines, though he thinks
he may
be anti-war. Or pro-peace. Or something that doesn't involve getting shot.
A hippie
berates him for labeling others as "the enemy."
The
Mayfly is seven minutes old, and develops a sense of reason.
However, as
he tries to puzzle out his life, there's a
shadow from above. He is smashed by a human.
"Wait...
this looks familiar."
The Mayfly is born once again...
