Spoilers ahead
This movie opens at a snowy ski resort where four friends—Jenna, Ethan, Liam, and Dante—finish a spring break getaway and prepare to head home. The mood is casual and a little reckless: a casual invitation to shower with Jenna is declined, a knowing look passes between Jenna and Dante, and the group piles into the car after a final round of jokes. A late attempt by Liam to call his mom is interrupted by Ethan’s teasing, and the ride quickly veers from lighthearted to tense as they spark a joint and try to hide the scent from a passing police officer. The officer’s casual flirtation about the “show” eases the tension just enough to avoid a ticket, but the encounter plants the seed of danger that will follow them.
