Jonas has just moved to Smoky Bay for a job. As he arrives on his first day on the job he finds that he no longer exists as a person for some reason. Turns out that he has been deleted from the newly computerized national archives; a major marvel of technology. Now comes his battle to get re-inserted into the archives, so he can have his job, get paid and pretend to be normal just like everybody else. This turns out to be more difficult than anticipated.
