Sinossi
Dopo un litigio con la fidanzata Jessa, Caleb scompare: la polizia ritrova solo l'auto, trascinata via dall'onda di un fiume in piena che ha violentemente spazzato un ponte. Jessa cede alle pressioni della madre di lui, che le attribuisce la colpa di ciò che è successo, e accetta di aiutarla a liberare la camera di Caleb. È un'esperienza intensa, perché ogni oggetto in quella stanza parla di lei: le foto, le magliette ordinatamente piegate, perfino la catenina spezzata che lei gli aveva affidato... Eppure piano piano emergono piccoli dettagli che fanno dubitare a Jessa di avere conosciuto davvero Caleb, fino a che non arriverà a chiedersi cosa sia davvero successo la notte del temporale...
