What begins as an evening of elegance quickly turns into a perilous game when the mansion is plunged into darkness, and a chilling voice declares that one of them is a killer. Trapped inside, Nimmy must decipher cryptic clues, confront her own past, and navigate the tangled relationships and suspicions that arise.

He does his best to not be smitten after every exchange afterward. His son needs him rational, steadfast...and love is the most uncertain thing. It was the elevator's fault.
