Katherine has always nurtured a deep-seated desire to carve out a successful acting career for herself. However, achieving this dream seems like an uphill battle, especially when it comes to landing lead roles in Hollywood. Despite her unwavering determination, she struggles with self-doubt about her acting abilities. Her journey becomes even more arduous due to the formidable presence of Barbie, her equally unpolished counterpart in acting. What adds further complexity to the situation is the fact that Barbie's father wields considerable influence in the entertainment industry, giving her a significant edge in securing coveted roles. To make matters even more challenging, Mr. James, the acting teacher, is affiliated with Barbie's father, which casts a shadow of doubt on the fairness of the audition process. In the midst of these daunting odds, Katherine finds a source of strength in her close-knit group of friends, particularly in her confidante, Hope. Additionally, she harbors unreciprocated feelings for Mr. James, adding a layer of emotional complexity to her struggles. As Katherine delves deeper into the intricacies of the entertainment industry, she begins to unearth a deeper understanding of herself and her aspirations, realizing that perhaps there is more to life than relentlessly pursuing lead roles and grappling with unrequited love.

After years of avoiding his ancestral home, Jacob returns home, even if it means he has to spend more time in Jessica's presence than is good for his peace of mind.
