By chance, she is approached by film student Adam (Kett Turton) of her loft building who is extremely influenced by her father's cinematic works. She permits him access to remaster and release her father's cinematic archives for professor lectures, and begins a relationship with him, granting him sexual favors in gratitude for reviving her career, even though she already has her husband, Ben (Ben Cotton). Her friend Clementine (Jennifer Beals), has a secret criminally inclined double life and this eventually intertwines with Grace's double life as well.
