It's been eight days since the clown first showed up in Green Bay, WI. Now, over the course of one night, four different groups of people cross paths with the clown everyone calls "Gags" and his true intentions are finally revealed.

A reclusive woman sees a homeless man drawing with chalk on the sidewalk. She takes pity and invites him in, only to realize he can't stop painting pictures. That was many years ago.
