Hana ʻia ka moʻolelo ma Atlantic City, kahi kaona e hauʻoli nei i kahi ola hou nona ponoʻī i nā makahiki kanawalu a ua iho i lalo ka puʻu. Pili aloha ʻo Johnny Norris me kekahi wahine i mare ʻia i ka mea piliwaiwai a me ka luna lawehala e ka inoa ʻo Cressner. ʻO Cressner, kahi kāne e pili pili i nā mea āpau, hāʻawi iā Norris i pili nona iho; inā hiki iā ia ke kaapuni i waho o ka hale kiʻekiʻe kiʻekiʻe, e hāʻawi ʻo Cressner i kāna wahine i kahi hemo e ʻae ana iā Norris lāua ʻo Mrs. Cressner e hui pū.

ʻO ke kau ʻekolu a ʻo ka hoʻoiho hope loa i kēia anthology nui i kapa ʻia ka inoa Nui. Pāʻani ʻo Drew Berrymore iā Amanda, kahi kaikamahine ʻōpio i haʻohaʻi ʻia i kēlā me kēia pō e kahi troll e noho ana i loko o kona mau paia. ʻO kāna pōpoki General, ka pōpoki like e hele ana iā ia i ke kiʻi ʻoniʻoni āpau, kōkua e mālama i ka troll.
