unevenly Inspired by Netflix capsules

Decades after a near-tragic
accident caused Jillan to go
off his path of destiny, he
strikes out on his own to
bury the discovered secret
of his forgotten love's dumb
past in a lost-weekend binge 
of hard alcohol and herbal
supplements that threatens 
to last the rest of his life. 

With no one else to turn 
away from, a chance visit
to a carnival palmist shows
Mairey Shales that she's been
holding the key to a century's
old mystery in the palm of her
hand all along.  

Forced to fight or give up
on dreams, Alek and Kayla
find themselves on a roller
coaster ride of fight, fall out
and make up on the way to 
the ground that leaves both 
severely injured, but blessed 
by a generous settlement 
neither had counted on.
Spoiler. 

Former action star Guen Bissle
punches and kicks her way
through a tight-knit web of
friends and allies on the way
to a showdown with the
unsuspected mastermind who
guided her rise, and who may
spell the key to her downfall
in this camp masterpiece of trust,
friendship, betrayal, and a magical
realist take on what circles of friends
can do closing in on you. 

A paranoid moron, Jock Stylo finally 
goes off his meds and confronts the 
real people he's known are against 
him - accidentally uncovering every 
real conspiracy there is, cuing them 
to destroy each other in a vicious 
stunned-awake rivalry that knows 
no bounds - and leaves the earth 
cleansed. 

A bigot, Trisha Gooms has a major 
attitude scheduled when her bikini 
doesn't measure up to the beach 
she's picked for an idyllic romantic 
getaway act from the lover who always 
hated her best, to deserve her worst. 

A. Hitler, incensed at accurately
biased depictions of him he'd
dreamed in bang-on prophecy
the night before the day he'd
penciled in for the big suicide
attempt, goes mad scientist
in a heartbeat, calling upon
his top cryptotech Nazi
braintrust to invent a
time machine so he can
kill himself as an innocent
newborn, alive with promise,
instead of the world's most
vindictive and notorious failed
crank tyrant maniac, just to see
what happens.
