Set: A living room: sofa, chair, telephone, occasional table

Reese has buried his wife Babe's classic 1965 Mustang in the back yard. Why? Call it a panic attack. They both thought that Babe was involved last night in a freakish hit-and-run accident, hitting a child on a dark, foggy stretch of road. Now they've just found out that it was not a child, but a chimpanzee. A Wonder Chimp, actually, from the circus. And suddenly there's a clown at the front door, and the police are on the way. This could get ugly. Or just very, very funny.
