Set in the backdrop of an old bar and their shared apartment, the film explores the dynamics of their relationship as Ten is convinced Hannah isn't dealing with her depression in a healthy way, and Hannah is convinced that Ten is a Vampire, complete with fangs and blood, and bats. Hannah confronts Ten with the only tools she knows, garlic, silver, and wooden stakes, but in a complex twist - Ten is an energy vampire and is compelled to feed off his roommates. "Undying Dilemma" delves into themes of emotional dependency, the unseen tolls of companionship, and the grey areas of morality within personal connections. Ten's revelation reframes the story from a tale of supernatural horror to an examination of the emotional parasitism present in human relationships. The film challenges the audience to reflect on the nature of those who drain us beyond the physical realm. It stands as a fun, stylistic, interpretation on Energy Vampires. Written by
