An art historian grapples with an impending life change as his wife gifts him a tiny Yale sweatshirt, triggering a profound existential crisis. Despite his academic success and devotion to his wife, Daniel spirals into anxiety, contemplating bigamy and fabricating stories about his past. His chaotic thoughts lead him to envision his pregnant wife with a grad student while navigating the absurdities of faculty life, including awkward encounters and inappropriate emails. The narrative explores themes of fear, identity, and the complexities of impending fatherhood.
