The plot follows Jess, a drug addicted teenager who is accused of killing her parents while she's high, and the psychiatrist who attempts to get Jess to relive those memories and admit what really happened. The story takes place in the psychiatrists office, where the psychiatrists asks questions that Jess constantly ridicules. As the story goes on, we see Jess begin to trust the doctor, but not without her fair share of witty and indirect comebacks.
