In a typical American dining room, a group of friends enjoys a carefree evening. However, a light-hearted dare turns dangerous for 20-year-old Michelle Zai Ogas, who begins choking. Her friends initially don't realize the severity of the situation until she stops laughing and joking. Despite attempts to help her, Michelle is in danger of succumbing to a common household hazard.
