Willow is finishing a weekend with blood on her face & a throat burned from cigarettes. She is fresh from unrequited love & running from the comforts & emotions of her past. For the fist time in Willow’s life she feels legitimate heartbreak, & searches deep inside of her memories to make sense of it all.

Worried that revealing a shortcoming will spoil her new relationship, a young woman uses VR technology to rehearse an upcoming date over and over again. Her first hope is to craft the perfect lie. When that fails she attempts a number of fraught distractions. Ultimately she realizes that vulnerability and honesty go a lot further than any technology ever could.
