Chad Wild Clay and V are trying to decipher a mysterious message on a cassette tape they found in an abandoned desert. The message is scrambled, but after trying different languages and filters, they discover it's in English when played in reverse. The message says "help" and includes coordinates (34 degrees north, 118 degrees west). After researching, they find the coordinates point to a location in Los Angeles County, California. The duo decides to investigate and drives to the location, which appears to be an abandoned town. They find a creepy area with a red barn, a shack, and a gate with multiple padlocks. Since they can't drive through, they decide to jump the fence and explore the abandoned town to find the person who left the tape and needs help.
