It is a lovely spring day in a public park. A man is settling on a park bench to read the paper when a Woman rushes on with a box. Before he can say no, the box has been left on the bench with instructions that the box cannot be moved, knocked, tilted or opened. A series of motley characters then begin to arrive, each with a theory about the contents of the box.
