Presented as an opportunity to be envied, Sweeney instructs Dana to spend the next year living life to the fullest, pursuing every extraordinary opportunity she ever dreamt about. When the year is up, Sweeney intends to reconvene for a romantic evening that will end with Dana's death. However, if Dana dares to contact law enforcement, her impending death will come much quicker and be far more brutal.
