Meek, struggling screenwriter Leon (Harry Anderson) is contacted by his answering machine, which happens to come from an alternate universe. Making it known how intensely strong-willed it is, the machine, speaking in Leon's voice, gradually begins to take over the original Leon's life. Eventually, Leon lashes out at the machine and shuts it off, but this ends up sending the machine's "friends" after him; automated recordings torturing him non-stop with useless information.
