A woman being stood up in while preparing dinner has a breakdown and looks for comfort.

The story is of Alice preparing dinner for a man. As she is about to cook the first lobster the phone rings and she drops the lobster in the water. On the phone is her date canceling. She tries saving the lobster but it is too late, the other one is left alone and alive. She sits down at the dinner table and as she is about to dig in she looks up to reveal the live lobster sitting across from her. She gets angry at him and pictures him as a live man sized lobster. She takes out her anger by eating her lobster, but soon feels guilty. She puts the plate away and shares salad with the live lobster.
