After A Breakup, Your Brain Basically Becomes An Episode Of '24': Watch

A comedy sketch depicts the high stakes of breaking up.

They say the first 48 hours are crucial when someone goes missing. Turns out that's also the case when someone gets dumped. In this sketch, comedian Anna Akana envisions the flurry of activity inside the cranial command center of a newly single dumpee.
