	In the show, Twilight Canyons is a retirement home located in [[Ankh-Morpork]]. Some of the residents of the home seem to suffer from memory loss or dementia to varying degrees, referring to all visitors as "Michelle".

There is also a "Displacement Spell" over the home which prevents violence within its walls. If anyone in the building intends to fight, the spell is triggered: the ambience changes to mirror balls and disco lighting, music plays, and combatants are magically compelled to dance together instead of fighting.
