Lost Dance Steps is the flip-side of Surveillance. It follows the obsessive activities of a hobbyist escape artist, whose "escapes" involve hiding in a box and climbing out of a gas station restroom window while on vacation with his wife. While staying in a cabin by a lake, he discovers that he is being watched by two men. He installs a closed-circuit camera in their cabin so that he can watch them. Meanwhile, his alienated wife stumbles across a man who has fallen from an airplane.
