In The Beta Test, PJ McCabe and Jim Cummings play struggling Hollywood agents trying to project a veneer of success. When Cummings' Jordan receives an interesting offer in the mail, his job and engagement are threatened.

They also talk about some of the sharp twists in their story, inspired in part by Eyes Wide Shut.
