Bodega Bathroom
The setup
The premise
Here’s the bit.
Charlie ignores his friend’s warning and accepts the key to a bodega bathroom. A singing cat guides them into a restroom populated by cockroaches, a threatening toilet and a protective Virgin Mary candle. The store becomes a musical fantasy as its inhabitants turn grime, stale merchandise and dubious services into production numbers. After surviving the tour, Charlie discovers that the owner has been testing him for an unexpected inheritance.
