Justin returns from work and calls out for his wife in the seemingly empty house. After a little searching, he finds her in an unusual situation, one that would soon turn out to be a reflection of her emotional state in all the chaos that it offers. We are thus presented with the image of a woman who sits with a glass of wine, a lighted candle, and a pillow and comforter in place, but in a dry bath.
The ensuing scene becomes a microcosm of the predominant drama that would constitute the narrative. Justin and Cassie have recently lost a child, and the grief and its many pressures have taken a toll on their marriage and relationship.
The intention of the plot therefore becomes about the exploration of how tragedy is capable of both pushing two people apart and pulling them together. Where would, then, our characters find themselves in this marriage that seems to be falling apart, amidst all the pain from the past, and fears for the future?
