Despite knowing it's unethical to discuss her clients' therapy sessions, the chaos in their lives challenges her professional boundaries like never before. Dr. Benning counsels Mrs. Melody, a stunning rap artist who uses her sexuality to advance her career; Charles Clay, a manipulative film director with a penchant for exploiting women; and Tyrell Hodge, a frustrated screenwriter desperate for success.

As Dr. Benning works tirelessly, she uncovers a troubling commonality among her clients—their desperate need for control over their lives, mirroring her own struggles. Determined to avert disaster, she devises a plan to harness their talents for mutual benefit. However, as she implements her strategy, unforeseen events spiral into chaos, threatening her career and personal life, plunging her into madness and a loss of control.
