Mabel's life is falling apart. Between her long-time situationship who wants to be more than friends now, her rapidly deteriorating grades, and a group of friends who've been conveniently excluding her from their plans lately, nothing is going her way, and the pressure keeps building up from all sides.

That's when Katie comes along, a brilliant new student who is quickly arranged to be her tutor. She seems like everything Mabel could never be. And yet, she understands her better than anyone ever did before.

As the two start spending more time together, and Mabel's life becomes increasingly messier day after day, Katie will add another problem onto Mabel's plate-one that, if not handled properly, could leave a bitter taste in their mouths... and hearts.

| 2x featured | When an up-and-coming dancer moves to Hollywood, she has plans of fame and fortune, but a one-minute encounter with her ex-lover and friend not only threatens her plans but makes her heart freestyle again. - - - After trudging through and failing in the murky freelancing waters of her hometown in central Texas, 22-year-old dancer, Dawn Bronagh, moves to L.A. with her mind set on reshaping her life. The first step: perform live with the internationally renowned Marlin Breen Dance Company. Confident that there is no chance of failure, Dawn feels nothing can hinder her success. But on the day of her big performance, a phantom of her past throws a monkey wrench into her perfected plans. Reignited anger mixed with free-ranging fear and pulls at her heartstrings doesn't help Dawn find a remedy to this ex-lover-induced problem, and she's running out of time. With only eight hours on the clock, Dawn is determined to find an answer before any possible failure comes to a close, but the answer may not be the one she was looking for.
