What happens in Infestation from start to finish, spoilers included, with a timeline of 15 key events. The opening is below; the full summary is a 5-minute read.

Spoilers ahead

Cooper, Christopher Rodriguez Marquette, is a classic office slacker who works as a telemarketer and drags himself into the workday late one too many times. His boss, Maureen Deborah Geffner, wastes no time reminding him that lateness and a talent for driving customers away have consequences, and she fires him on the spot. A thunderous, otherworldly crack shatters the moment, and Cooper collapses in a daze, waking days later nauseated and weak, cocooned inside the office walls.
