J. thinks a lot about his wife; he thinks about the dishes they bought together and the group activities she forced him to attend. Of course, his life changed when his wife passed away. His children try to help him, but J. really just wants to be left alone. His one hobby, and only source of happiness, is collecting PEZ dispensers. It may seem childish for a grown man to collect plastic toys, but he finds joy and peace in them. It calms him to catalog, clean, organize, and display these toys. He frequently speaks with other collectors who understand his passion. Ben, J.'s son, adds pieces to the collection and supports his father's interest; J.'s daughter is only interested in herself. Both children are still grieving and trying to make it at being adults.
J. goes through his days adding to his collection, trying to avoid never-ending phone conversations with his daughter, and wondering what will happen to the toys after he's dead. Will it change anyone's life the way it's changed his? Or will the pieces end up in the dump? Even J. can't imagine what happens.
