When his father gets knocked over in a car accident, Dan is forced to economise, give up the bedsit the two of them share and secretly move into the call centre where he works. He takes with him a ginger tom cat called John and the telephone numbers of seven women his dad wants him to contact. Soon, the boundaries between Dan's life and work dissolve completely, and, if it weren't for the secrecy, twenty-four-hour residency at the call centre would mark him out as the perfect employee.
