Years after his boyfriend's disappearance, Dan has been living alone, moping by himself and refusing to go out. He never gets any visitors, until one night there's a knock at his door, and he opens it to reveal someone he thought he'd never see again: his not-so-missing boyfriend, Phil Lester. Dan struggles to grasp the reality that his boyfriend really is alive, but everything is so different now. Should he throw his arms around Phil, or question what really happened?
