While staying at home after a local cat is found mauled, therapy doesn’t help Jimmy’s and the frequency of his hallucinations increases. A voice in his head, that he calls Lucy, starts off by egging him on to cut himself.

After suspecting his mother is lying to him, Lucy’s final request is one is so painfully irreversible that it will change his life forever.
