King Ed

A wounded romantic hunts for the author of a mysterious, “perfect” playlist he believes was made by his soulmate. But only because a medically licensed witch told him so.

Synopsis: Ed didn’t just get dumped, per se—but he did encounter a “relationship upheaval.” And that break-up didn’t leave him with crippling depression, necessarily—he’s just not “emotionally thriving.” His hunt for a cure leads him to the office of The Ketamine Oracle: an alternative therapist-slash-modern-day-myth who just might be addicted to some substances herself.

Her drug-fueled visions reveal two things: that a) Ed fell for his ex-boyfriend Joseph when he heard the “perfect playlist” Joseph played on their first date, and b) that said ex-boyfriend did not, in fact, make said playlist. Instantly reinvigorated, Ed launches a search for the true author of the playlist, and the soul mate that awaits him.
