Summary

This week, in Menomonie, Wisconsin, a friendly, traveling lounge singer moves into the area, and people start to end up dead. Some of the deaths even seem to be accidents. But it turns out not to be a coincidence, as this singer is also being guided by voices, coming from tv sets, light bulbs, and Chinese restaurants, while also being told what to do, by what he calls "The Force". He eventually admits all of this, but will he be allowed to walk the streets, again??

Along the way, we find out that nobody wants someone to croon Frank Sinatra tunes to them, while they're being murdered, that if you hear any voices that you can't identify, you should ignore them, and that if someone is apparently in a car accident, you should also check them for bullet holes!!
