Relatively shy JC dances and performs for a NokNok video in an attempt to win over some followers. He then notices the stockpile of trash in his studio apartment after overhearing some aggravated townsfolk engage in heated discourse over the strike of the waste management department — trash accumulates on the streets. Jc then discovers a seemingly bottomless hole on his small dining table. His investigations led him to throw away his bags of garbage into the pit of nothingness. He calls for his neighbors into his apartment, shows them the hole, and presents it as a potential solution to the city's waste problem. They bring with them their bags of amassed garbage, tossing them into the hole below. JC is revered as a savior.
