Three years ago, Daphne, a woman who used to be a positive and pleasant person, became pregnant and gave birth to a child with a congenital condition. Since then, her mental health has taken a nosedive, causing her to become malicious, envious, and easily angered. After a mental breakdown, she finally started therapy and her sister invited her to a beach vacation. However, after witnessing her behavior during Christmas, the sister is having second thoughts.
