Spoilers ahead
A troubled young musician named Blake escapes from a rehab clinic and begins the uneasy walk home through a quiet forest, pausing to swim across a lake and then light a small fire to mark the night. The following morning, he returns home and changes his clothes, moving around the house with a tense, watchful presence, even leveling a shotgun toward his sleeping roommates—Scott, Luke, Asia, and Nicole. The tension in the house is palpable, and the day is shaped by small interruptions and odd encounters that hint at deeper fractures beneath the surface of their lives.
