Inhaltsangabe
In my life, I had always been good woman; controlling what it was that I wanted. But recently, I had started to notice my bad energy, and I began to follow it, wondering where it would take me . . .
A woman has an unexpected outburst at group therapy for returning parents at a large corporation, with devastating consequences. A couple find some long-overdue time to rekindle their relationship and make an ill-advised sex tape. A pregnant film director plots her revenge on the actress who betrayed her. An ex-wife causes conflict at her former husband's wedding.
