Misanthropic indie auteur Neil LaBute wades the treacherous waters of male/female relationships yet again with this story of a man named Fred (Stanley Tucci) who reappears in the life of young and beautiful Velvet (Alice Eve) unannounced following a four-year absence. Subsequently, the more Fred reveals about his reasons for leaving in the first place, the greater the tensions between he and Velvet grow until exploding into a thermonuclear game of he said/she said.
