In 1977, former real estate developer Tony Kiritsis puts a dead man's switch on himself and the mortgage banker who did him wrong, demanding $5 million and a personal apology.

A woman grappling with difficulty finding sexual pleasure after childbirth falls back on an old coping habit.

Following his departure from academia, Alexander McHarren finds himself back in his hometown of Albuquerque, New Mexico, and loathing every minute of it. Unsure of what to do with his life, as well as a passion for medieval philosophy, Alexander rambles across the land of enchantment in search of something bigger than himself. Or maybe just something to do. Whether it's venturing out to find illegal substances with a sensitive burnout, developing a close bond with an aspiring intellectual or visiting his glump of a younger brother, Alexander stumbles into one misadventure after the next, with little to no concern for the consequences of his actions. THE GENERAL SPECIFIC is a goofy drama about loneliness, resentment, and narcissism.
