Stanley is a british lodger who is visited by two unexpected guests, menacing and mysterious strangers, Goldberg and McCann. They offer to host Stanley's birthday party after Stanley's landlady tells them that it is Stanley's birthday, although it is really not. In the course of the party they torment him verbally, ask him idiotic unanswerable questions, force him to sit down and stand up and eventually, they take him away. And the party just started...
