I'm an actress who hasn't gotten a gig in forever. That day, I got turned down again. I was desperate for ANY JOB —I was about to be evicted, dizzy from not eating enough, and my life was a total mess. So, I'm standing there at the job board, and I see this super weird ad: "Looking for a woman to ruin my son's wedding. Pays well."
I thought, "What the hell?" But my landlord wouldn't stop blowing up my phone about rent, and this lady, Leslie, was offering $10,000 just to stop her son from marrying some "duff." I hate myself, but I was desperate, so... I said yes.
I got a job as her son Jack's assistant. Day by day, as I tried to win him over, I realized how amazing he was! My guilt was eating me alive. But Leslie kept calling, pressuring me—there was only a week left until the wedding. I ignored her calls, burying my face in my hands out of despair. That's when Jack came over, trying to cheer me up.
I suggested going to a bar to let loose. He got so close...
Him: "I... I can't. Katie's waiting for me."
Me: "C'mon, just an hour. It'll be fun, I promise."
Him: "Miranda. Stop. Please."
Me: "I... I CAN'T DO THIS ANYMORE!"
