So, when Alexa develops an overnight romance with a YouTuber client, Curt, Beth grows protective and territorial of Alexa. As the sisters’ bond grows strained over Alexa’s relationship and career success, questions mount, and secrets unfold, revealing the wickedly dark shared history of the twin siblings. When Beth discovers Curt has learned their horrible secret and is threatening to expose them to further his own agenda, Beth is forced to intervene, changing all of their lives forever.
