Faro Rides Again
At 1 am, a husband has just come home to bed. To keep his bossy wife from inquiring about where he’s been, he tells her that their dog, Faro, is dead. However, the wife finds out later that Faro is still very much alive!

Sleeping Together
At 2 am, two young women in the same room, strangers to each other, discuss and provoke a taboo subject – their sexual preferences.

Three In The Morning
At 3 am, a middle-aged lady leaves her husband alone in bed. However, while trying to re-examine everything about her life, she finds that she can't remember anything. Not even her husband’s name.

The Underachiever
At 4 am, a journeyman comedy writer with low self-esteem gets consultation from his often sarcastic wife, about life and believing in himself.

I Want To Hold Your Hand
At 5 am, a young lady is experiencing a sickness, which she calls 'dinosaur hour', in a red-eye flight. She holds on to an older lady's hand in an attempt to regain composure.

Love Sonnet
At 6 am, a Chinese mother, while writing a poem for her son’s 30th birthday, reminisces over the sweetest moment she shared with her Malay husband 30 years ago - the last time they had sex.
