While there, he slowly learns of the other misfits who share the night shift with him, all lead by an obsessive boss. After several weeks without sleep, Ben finds something very unusual. He appears to have developed the ability to 'pause' the world around him, stopping time for everyone except himself. He uses this power to further his artistic ambitions, using it to undress and sketch the female shoppers.
