It is New Year's Eve and no one wants to be alone. Right? Wrong! Mr. Grump Guy wants to sit at home in his apartment and read instead of being around his old friends to celebrate the old year out and the New Year in. To him, it does not sound like a fun time, because he feels it places him on a trial of his life. What has he done compared to everyone else up to now? He decides to avoid the crazy and fast-paced world on this eve. But his evening is interrupted by a Little Light Bulb girl selling incandescents door to door in his apartment complex.
