You sound like you’re blaming me.

JAY
No! I’m blaming everything.

GOOGLE
Except yourself.

JAY
Ideally.

A hilarious look at the evolution of human stupidity and how technology, from writing to the printing press to Google, has helped our lives get easier and our brains get dumber.

Jay lives his life online, and couldn’t be happier to have a computer do his thinking for him.  Suddenly, Google comes literally knocking at his door with a job offer and a bag of cookies, and the two are off on a mysterious road trip.  As they travel, we detour through time to the inventions that changed our thinking, and the smart people who hated them.  When Jay is forced to take a side in the struggle to remake the brain forever, who will he fight for; the old and the slow, or the quick and the dumb?

Five actors play more than twenty characters in this fast-paced comedy.
