@Jeff.

Because c2 doesn't exist, this will just decrease the output signal, but having 0 output signal will only be caused by simply not having an amplifier in the first place, and that's caused by having an Emitter base junction in the reverse mode (cut off mode).

Why an open base emitter of Q1 can cause the 0v?
