Clara and Brighten (played by
Cadence Lux and
Hazel Moore), two members of a traditional country family, are sharing a meal with their parents at their family residence. As they participate in a prayer before eating, Brighten nudges Clara covertly under the table, hinting that she needs to have a confidential conversation with her once their parents depart for their later errands. Clara silently acquiesces, although she's baffled about what could be so pressing for Brighten.
Later in the day, Brighten raps on Clara's door, who welcomes her in. With their parents absent for the next few hours, Brighten feels at ease discussing her concerns with Clara - provided that she swears to keep what she's about to divulge a secret. Clara consents, but is taken aback when Brighten ushers in her boyfriend, Elijah (portrayed by
Seth Gamble).
Brighten elaborates that even though she and Elijah are devoted to each other and plan to marry post-university, they are struggling to maintain their chastity until that point. Elijah confesses how, in spite of his religious beliefs, he's found himself plagued by unclean thoughts and even viewing explicit content online. Clara is taken aback.
she is speechless.
Brighten reveals, however, that they believe they've discovered a fitting resolution to their quandary: SOAKING. A seemingly permissible workaround within their faith, soaking involves a male inserting his penis into a female's vagina without any further movement. It's a method other couples their age have utilised to circumvent breaking their promise of pre-marital celibacy.
The only catch is that a third individual needs to be present to physically manipulate the other two for them to attain sexual satisfaction. To Clara's astonishment, Brighten and Elijah want HER to facilitate their movements during sex. Clara is reluctant, questioning Brighten if this is genuinely what she desires.
Brighten concedes that Clara is the only individual she truly confides in, and it would be of great importance to her if Clara could assist them with this one request. Clara eventually complies and aids Elijah and Brighten through their initial sexual experience, praying fervently that she won't be condemned for what she has consented to.
