As Johnny (Conor McCarron) readies himself for his day, he is overcome with a familiar sense of anxiety and dread; as his father screams at him from the back room. Johnny steadies himself, leaning his head against the cold mirror, a moment of relief in a tough morning. He realises that this is it. He needs help.
Johnny reluctantly makes his way to a mental health hub, a place for men to talk openly to each other, He is quickly invited inside by Mark (John Hughes), who has been watching him on the monitors.
Feeling shaky and jittery, Johnny is taken on a tour of the facilities. With each room, something breaks through his hard exterior, and forces Johnny to confront his past. The graffitied wall reminds him of parties best forgotten, the empty white walls of the office remind him of frustrating, hurried doctor’s appointments.
Mark takes Johnny to meet the rest of the guys in the hub, but first, at the end of the day, they all sit and discuss how they are feeling. They describe this as their battery percentage. Some men feel better than others, some have come in feeling great, and left feeling even better, others have come in feeling low and will leave feeling slightly better. Finally, it’s Johnny’s turn. Mark introduces him, and Johnny nervously stands up. He is surrounded by the warm glow of support. In turn, each man from the hub hugs Johnny. He finally feels safe.
