The setting is a lonely city on a rainy night. No cars or humans are present. Somewhere in the city is a bike shop called "Eben's Bikes", which is closed for the night. In the corner of the shop sleeps Red, a red unicycle who languishes in the "clearance corner", awaiting to be purchased. As the camera zooms on him, the sound of rain falling turns into a drumroll, and we go into the dream-sequence.
