Down The Rabbit Hole

Eliza Eves, in the role of Clara, is sauntering around her room, engaging in a casual conversation with her friend, Lacey, about their impending graduation and Prom. Clara releases a sigh and reveals that she has been accepted to her dream business school, a fact that Lacey responds to with fervent praise. Clara, however, thanks her friend with a sense of melancholy, confessing her uncertainty about how she will finance her education.
In a playful tone, Lacey suggests that Clara could auction off her virginity. Clara is taken aback but maintains a light-hearted facade until the call ends. Once the call is over, Clara chortles again at the ludicrous suggestion, but her laughter gradually subsides as she becomes lost in contemplation.
Clara reprimands herself, dismissing such thoughts as absurd. She is clearly torn and begins brainstorming other possibilities, such as securing employment at a nearby supermarket, but nothing seems to provide a sufficient solution. Eventually, her gaze drops to her body, her hand gently tracing her breasts and torso.
She looks conflicted, yet also intrigued. Clara proceeds to seek advice from her online circle of friends, posing the question with a tone of jest. Most of them dismiss it as a prank, but one person shares a dubious link.
Clara hesitates before clicking the link, nervously biting her lip as her cursor hovers over it. She then straightens in her seat, her face firm with determination. She clicks it.
Clara's eyes widen and dart rapidly, evidently devouring every word she can. It appears as though she is being drawn into a shadowy realm. Her fingers drum against the keyboard in a frenzy, and the tension escalates.
Several hours later, Clara receives a text message instructing her to dial a number. She is reluctant but complies. The call is answered.
TITLE PLATE Later that day, Clara arrives at the exterior of a dubious-looking building. She hesitates but proceeds, pushing through the front door. Upon entering, Clara is disconcerted to find herself in a dungeon-like setting.
An older man, Seth Gamble in the role of Max, approaches and appraises her with a predatory gaze. He circles her slowly, evaluating her as though she were an object. Max's behavior becomes assertive and salacious, but Clara firmly holds her ground, much to Max's annoyance.
Clara's confidence swells as she lays out her requirements for Max. Initially, Max is irritated, but he gradually becomes captivated by Clara's burgeoning audacity. He ultimately agrees.
Clara has indeed plunged deep into the rabbit hole.
