The story starts when Website/YouTube tat reviewer StuartAshen attempts to review the contents of a package addressed to his neighbour, Tom Bishop--a USB flash drive. Suddenly, he is interrupted when two men break into his house and attack him, forcing him to go on the run. After running into Tom, and after both are rescued by an amnesiac woman with bizarre powers, who they dub "Sarah", the three go on a quest to find out the story behind the drive and their assailants.

* PoorlyDisguisedPilot: The storyline actually began in one of Ashens' regular review videos (specifically, a review of LimitedSpecialCollectorsUltimateEdition video games). The first episode itself was literally a disguised pilot, as it was originally posted under the title of "Illegal Activity Special" and pretended to be a normal review video, albeit one of the contents of a package addressed to his neighbor, until suddenly plot happened.

* GenreBlindness: Most of the cast but surprisingly Ashens at one point where he doesn't seem to notice how odd a police officer is acting.
* GenreSavvy: Ashens, who points out that going to the bad guy's hangout, especially after escaping it once, is not a good idea. Lampshaded by Peter.
