Kalagitnaan ng gabi lasing na lasing si Lance at pinigilan siyang umuwi ng kaibigan niya galing sa isang bar ngunit hindi siya nakinig. Habang nagmamaneho nang mabilis ay biglang tumawag ang kanyang ina, dahilan para mawalan siya ng konsentrasyon sa pagmamaneho, at tangkang mababangga sa isang kulay asul na kotse na kapwa bumubulusok din ng takbo. Mababangga na sana ang kotse niya rito nang sa hindi inaasahang pagkakataon ay lumihis ng landas ang kasalubong niyang kotse dahilan para tumama ito sa kongkretong pader. Tinulungan ni Lance ang babaeng nagmamaneho ng asul na kotse upang dalhin sa hospital ngunit kinabukasan matapos niyang dalhin ang babae sa hospital ay bigla nalamang itong nawala ng parang bula. Walong buwan matapos ang aksidente ay muling nagkrus ang landas ng dalawa, ngunit sa pagkakataong ito ay talagang sinadya na, sapagkat ang babae na mismo ang lumapit sa kanya at nagpakilala bilang tauhan ng kaniyang ama. Ang mas nakapagpagulat kay Lance ay nang malaman nitong pinapahanap siya ng kanyang ama na matagal na niyang hinahangad na makita. Mas lalo siyang nasorpresa sa sinabi ng babae na siya ang misyon niya, misyon niyang dalhin siya sa bansa nilang hindi lantad sa ibang mga tao. Sa isang bansang tago at hindi kita sa globo. Isang bansang hanggang ngayon ay nananatiling sikreto.

My roommate branded herself as an influencer against beauty standards, vowing to free girls from appearance anxiety. Strangely, whenever she stayed up late partying and broke out in pimples, they would appear on my face instead. When she fooled around and caught an infection, the rashes spread across my body. The more radiant she became, the more monstrous I looked. People recoiled from me. Friends cut me off. My own boyfriend, before a crowd, told me I should just die. Then my roommate got pregnant, yet it was my stomach that swelled like I was eight months along, scarred with terrifying stretch marks. She, meanwhile, looked more flawless than ever, appearing barefaced on camera to encourage girls not to fear their looks. I knew something was not right. When I tried to dig for answers, my roommate and boyfriend trapped me in a basement. They tortured me until I died. Only then did I learn the truth. He owned a cursed amulet that shifted all her pain onto me. The moment I opened my eyes, I was back on our first day of college together. This time, the game is mine. I'll make sure they pay.
