Something’s wrong with Julie. She hasn’t been the same since her parents were murdered.
She doesn’t sleep. She barely eats. And she’s starting to get paranoid. She tries to avoid Tom when he comes home from work.
Tom says she must have survivor’s guilt.
When she sees a psychiatrist who offers a new type of therapy, she’s able to retrieve memories she repressed long ago—memories that make her suspicious of Tom.
Could her husband be the one who murdered her parents? Has he been gaslighting Julie all this time?
Tom can sense she’s afraid and thinks the doctor turned her against him.
Then, one day, she disappears. She goes for therapy and doesn’t return.
Tom confronts her psychiatrist and demands to know where she is. To his dismay, the doctor insists she’s been dead for years.
According to the psychiatrist, Tom couldn’t accept that she died, so he’s been imagining that Julie is still alive. Tom is the patient, he says, not Julie.
Tom refuses to believe it at first, but he begins to have doubts as one clue after another suggests the doctor is right. Is Tom on the verge of losing his mind?
Or are Julie and her psychiatrist gaslighting Tom?
