After a mysterious unsettling incident, a young man named Yuri is brought home by a concerned friend. At home, Yuri's birthday request is met with hostility from his parents, who celebrate his brother Ethan lavishly while dismissing Yuri as merely someone they gave a home to. Yuri confronts them, pleading for even a little acknowledgment of his existence as their son. His mother shuts him down, asking if he wants new parents, and then turns her full attention to celebrating Ethan, leaving Yuri's plea painfully unresolved.
