It's a stop-motion piece where a middle aged, clock-watching salaryman - played by Gommi himself - utterly loses his grip on reality, as he waits for his tedious 9-5 day to end, imagining all sorts of weird stuff in the process. It's a full-on psychotic episode, to match the lyrics of Gommi's banging tune Psychosis.
