Warning: Spoilers
Skip (Jason Spisak ) has spent 2 years in jail, crime unspecified. Upon his release he gets a job as the night shift janitor at a west world run by philosopher cowboy Archie (Jon Gries). While showing Skip around Archie relates to him four separate stories about how choices determine our life.

1) Tommy (Ricky Schroder) is a human punching bag who wants to be a boxer. He comes across an old set of gloves that turns him into a killer boxer.

2) Eugene (Bart Johnson) gets initiated into the Red Fez Society which takes a twist.

3) Bill (Alexander Polinsky) wants to kill himself and then meets Jack (Jason Marsden) on a roof top.

4) A hitman (Rick Hoffman) tries to determine which one of three women hired him to kill her husband.

After the four episodes are told, Skip is instructed not to go into Locker 13 which lasts about 30 seconds. He becomes our fifth story.

The stories were well acted out, but the first and fourth episodes were overly predictable. The suicide club episode really didn't twist much and didn't have anything to do with Locker 13. It appears to have been something they just tossed in. The Red Fez Society seemed more like an opportunity squandered.

It is a nice little anthology of stories. Not to be confused with the film the "13th Unit."

No f-bombs, sex, or nudity. One of those odd "R" ratings for violence.
