Zeroes is a parody/fan video.
About
Ordinary People with Ordinary Abilities
Zeroes chronicles "ordinary people with ordinary abilities". The video begins with Cindy, a Claire lookalike, who can fit her entire fist into her mouth. She says, "That was attempt number 42. Next time I'm gonna try my foot." An Indian-sounding voiceover announces the existence of ordinary people with relatively pointless powers. They cannot fly or teleport (though that would be nice), but they can touch their tongue to their nose, can kick the back of their own head, and "can do a stomach thingy". The voiceover ponders, "If you could balance a flip phone on your nose, would you use it to save the world?" "Will others use their bendiness for evil purposes?" "How is the foot-writer connected to the straw-playing guy?" Finally, the video ends with the title overlaid on an eclipse.
Open Auditions
A second video was released in which "Mohinder" holds an open audition, searching for other "genetic mutants" with pointless abilities. Among the motley crew are a woman who can wiggle her eyes, a man who can burp the alphabet, and a woman who offends "Mohinder" with her Indian dialect.
Memorable Quotes
"That was attempt number 42. Next time, I'm gonna try my foot in my mouth."
- - Cindy
"Okay, I--I don't know how you got ahold of my necklace, but, uh, at this point you can keep it."
- - "Mohinder"
"That's it? So you can swallow a pinto bean, okay. What the f—!"
- - "Mohinder"
"If these genetic mutants hold the key to our future, we, are seriously boned." - Mohinder
Notes
- It is unknown if the limbo guy's ability is related to the power of bendiness.
- Any connections between the man who "threads" his lips and the man who passes "Mohinder's" necklace through his orifices are purely speculative.
- The straw-playing guy's instrument does not appear to be the same exact straw that the "Gah-eee!" guy uses to pierce potatoes.
- It is unknown how the foot-writer is connected to the straw-playing guy.
