Plot

All three chapters of the film are centered around three men (played by Ryan Reynolds) trying to uncover the secret about strange happenings in their sometimes overlapping lives.

Troubled actor Gary, who is wearing a green bracelet, is under house arrest in another person's house as he burned down his. The house's owner is a TV writer working elsewhere. There, Gary has contact with his P.R. "handler" Margaret, and the single mom next door, Sarah, who seems interested.

Obsessed with 'nine', including finding a note in his own handwriting saying "Look for the nines". Gary finds it over and over: while playing backgammon, reading newspaper advertisements...he sees them everywhere.
