When Mr. Sibeau-an eccentric, penny-pinching CPA-stumbles upon an old, dust-covered teapot on an abandoned floor of the building, he assumes it's nothing more than a cheap gimmick. Without a second thought, he dumps it in the coffee corner of the Data Entry Department, hoping to shut up the accounting clerks he considers "the least sharp tools in the firm," who've been complaining for months: "One coffee machine, and not even a way to make tea? " What he doesn't realize is that he has just placed a magical teapot into the hands of his six most inexperienced-and lowest-paid-employees. As a joke, during a break where caffeine levels are bordering on Olympic-grade doping, each of them makes a completely absurd wish.More paid time off? The abolition of VAT?A world without year-end closings?No.Even at their most desperate, they're not that suicidal. And the teapot-despite its highly questionable faux-Oriental charm-is not a union representative.So instead, each of them makes a wish that seems harmless, almost trivial: Money. Fame. Beauty. Strength. True love. And immortality. Perfectly normal accountant wishes, really. The result? An accidentally triggered zombie apocalypse. And the accounting firm becomes the unlikely epicenter of the most improbable fiscal chaos in history. As the world collapses, things only get worse: Accountant-specific humor, completely unhinged dialogue, and zombies-normally in search of brains-who start to grow a little concerned inside this office... Because, let's be honest: They're not finding many. And it's stressing them out.
