Through quirky, fragmented episodes, Catherine unravels her story—introducing listeners to the diner’s eccentric staff and the eerie happenings that took place under the surface of everyday life. Meanwhile, a shadowy corporation known as Blind Corp. looms over the narrative. Behind the scenes, two operatives from Blind Corp work to piece together the mystery of the zombie apocalypse that tore the town apart, questioning Catherine in an attempt to understand the horror that unfolded.

Lynn wakes on the diner floor, staring into the impossible face of her sister Susan—alive against all odds. But survival is no gift. In Blind Corp’s shadow, secrets twist into weapons: Thomas is locked away with only betrayal for company, Susan sharpens her case before the board, and Lynn’s grip on reality fractures in a haunted apartment where appliances whisper and ghosts of family echo through static. By the time the Bunny King names her a fox, the line between truth, madness, and Blind Corp’s designs is long gone.
