Sometime later, April is released from the hospital, but Richard and Jean notice changes in her behavior, as she pulls herself away from their touch and vomits when she tries Richard's food. Deciding to give April some space, the pair sit in the living room to share some whiskey. While there, Richard tells Jean that his family usually runs from trouble, prompting Jean to share how she was similarly attacked in college, as she was returning from class one day. The incident traumatized her, but April never gave up on her, taking her in and letting her recuperate for as long as she needed. Hearing this, Richard agrees that both he and Jean need to do whatever they can to help April recover. Days later, Richard and Jean check on April, but they find the bedroom shrouded and darkness and frigidly cold. As Jean suggests that the hospital released her too early and that she needs a doctor, April suddenly rebukes her in a fury, declaring that her college assault turned her into a freeloader and demanding she leave the house, after which she starts crying, gradually turning into maniacal laughter. As the heartbroken Jean leaves, she sees the little girl from April's crime scene, holding the "Welcome Home" balloons she released into the sky and disappearing when Jean looks again.
Days after Jean is thrown out, Richard has tried and failed to nurse April back to health, the staircase having been lined with plates of rotting and uneaten food. At that moment, Dr. Spence (Rebecca Davis) makes a house call to check on April. While he's somewhat glad that help has arrived, Richard forlonly tells the doctor that the woman he married is essentially gone. As Dr. Spence goes upstairs and enters the bedroom, she finds April standing rigidly by the bed as she shuts the door. As he returns from a walk, Richard hears a thud and rushes up the stairs. He finds the bedroom a bloody mess, and discovers April feeding on Spence's corpse. Richard also discovers that April has gained black eyes and sharp teeth, constantly repeating "Hungry!" when not feeding. Horrified, Richard starts calling for help, but April softly grabs his hand and softens her expression, convincing Richard that his wife may still be in there. Richard instead moves Spence's body down to the basement as April unnaturally crawls after him. Wanting to help her however he can, Richard tells April that he’ll see what he can do with the corpse.

The next day, Richard sits in his car looking for April's next prospective meal, when something suddenly bumps into it. The culprit happens to be the little girl who Jean saw earlier, having crashed her bike into the car and injuring her knee. Richard hopes to get the girl, giving her name as Daisy (Kingston Chan), home to her family so they can take her to the hospital, but Daisy tells him that she doesn't have a family to go home to. Hatching an idea, Richard tells Daisy that he's a doctor and that he can take her to his "office" to fix her up. Richard brings Daisy to the house and tells her that his "nurse" is in the basement. As Daisy heads down the stairs and Richard locks the door behind her, Detective Kiernan suddenly enters, showing Richard a white flower similar to the one from April's crime scene. She also tells him that several people have gone missing, and that there might be a link to their disappearances. Daisy suddenly screams, prompting Kiernan to whip out her pistol and force Richard to open the basement door.

Michelin-level chef Richard Nance (Sachin Sahel) cooks a gourmet breakfast for his beloved wife April (Rachel Drance) as a celebration for her big promotion. As the happy couple sit down, April's live-in younger sister Jean (Mae Mae Renfrow) congratulates "the boss lady" for her first day in her new position as she goes back to bed. While April eats, she and Richard discuss the possibility of them starting a family, to which they happily agree before she leaves for work.

Kiernan explains to Richard that April was savagely attacked by an unknown assailant as she was walking to her car.

Written By: John Esposito
Michelin star chef Richard Nance (Sachin Sahel) cooks a gourmet breakfast for his beloved wife April (Rachel Drance) as a celebration for her big promotion. As the happy couple sit down, April's live-in younger sister Jean (Mae Mae Renfrow) congratulates "the boss lady" for her first day in her new position as she goes back to bed. While April eats, she and Richard discuss the possibility of them starting a family, to which they happily agree before she leaves for work. That evening, Richard whips up a candlelit dinner with a charcuterie board and wine, waiting for April to get home. Hours later, after texting April repeatedly, a call comes from her phone. When Richard answers, the person on the line, Detective Kiernan (Elfina Luk), tells Richard that there's been a situation. Richard rushes to a crime scene where April, covered in blood with a large gash on her throat and in critical condition, is loaded into an ambulace. Kiernan explains to Richard that April was savagely attacked by an unknown assailant as she was walking to her car. The culprit managed to escape capture, but as soon as the ambulance leaves with Richard inside, Kiernan notices and picks up a white flower on the ground near April's car.
Sometime later, April is released from the hospital, but Richard and Jean notice changes in her behavior, as she pulls herself away from their touch and vomits when she tries Richard's food. Deciding to give April some space, the pair sit in the living room to share some whiskey. While there, Richard tells Jean that his family usually runs from trouble, prompting Jean to share how she was similarly attacked on the way home from college one day. The incident traumatized her, but April never gave up on her, taking her in and letting her recuperate for as long as she needed. Hearing this, Richard agrees that both he and Jean need to do whatever they can to help April recover. Days later, Richard and Jean check on April, but they find the bedroom shrouded and darkness and frigidly cold. As Jean suggests that the hospital released her too early and that she needs a doctor, April suddenly rebukes her in a fury, declaring that her college assault turned her into a freeloader and demanding she leave the house, after which she starts crying, gradually turning into maniacal laughter. As the heartbroken Jean leaves, she sees a little girl with a bike outside, holding the "Welcome Home" balloons Jean released into the sky, and disappears when Jean looks again.
Days after Jean is thrown out, Richard has tried and failed to nurse April back to health, the staircase having been lined with plates of rotting and uneaten food. At that moment, Dr. Spence (Rebecca Davis) makes a house call to check on April. While he's somewhat glad that help has arrived, Richard forlonly tells the doctor that the woman he married is essentially gone. As Dr. Spence goes upstairs and enters the bedroom, she finds April standing rigidly by the bed as she shuts the door. As he returns from a walk, Richard hears a thud and rushes up the stairs. He finds the bedroom a bloody mess, and discovers April feeding on Spence's corpse. Richard also discovers that April has gained black eyes and sharp teeth, constantly repeating "Hungry!" when not feeding. Horrified, Richard starts calling for help, but April softly grabs his hand and softens her expression, convincing Richard that his wife may still be in there. Richard instead moves Spence's body down to the basement as April unnaturally crawls after him. Wanting to help her however he can, Richard tells April that he’ll see what he can do with the corpse.
In a montage, Richard proceeds to kill random strangers through all sorts of different methods, taking the bodies back home and turning their flesh into gourmet meals for April to devour. During this time, Detective Kiernan calls Richard to ask how April holding up, to which he answers that she's doing better. After delivering one of his latest bloody masterpieces to her, Richard tells April he has something special planned for their anniversary. Jean soon returns to the house after calling and texting several times, asking how April is doing after experiencing nightmares about her potential death. As she enters the kitchen, Richard grabs a frying pan and whacks Jean in the head, sending her tumbling down the basement stairs. As he's explaining the truth, April, whose face has turned into that of a vicious monster, drags Jean away and devours her alive.
The next day, Richard sits in his car looking for April's next prospective meal, when something suddenly bumps into it. The culprit happens to be the little girl who Jean saw earlier, having crashed her bike into the car and injuring her knee. Richard hopes to get the girl, giving her name as Daisy (Kingston Chan), home to her family so they can take her to the hospital, but Daisy tells him that she doesn't have a family to go home to. Hatching an idea, Richard tells Daisy that he's a doctor and that he can take her to his "office" to fix her up. Richard brings Daisy to the house and tells her that his "nurse" is in the basement. As Daisy heads down the stairs and Richard locks the door behind her, Detective Kiernan suddenly enters, showing Richard a white flower similar to the one from April's crime scene. She also tells him that several people have gone missing, and that there might be a link to their disappearances. Daisy suddenly screams, prompting Kiernan to whip out her pistol and force Richard to open the basement door.
Richard and Kiernan slowly descend into the basement, now housing severed body parts everywhere. As Kiernan asks where the girl is and Richard pleads for her to understand the situation, the detective finds Daisy staring at the wall. As she goes to take her home, Daisy promptly reveals herself to be the same kind of creature that April became, pouncing on Kiernan and brutally slaughtering her. Richard is horrified, but as Daisy returns to normal, she reveals that she was the one who attacked April, having replayed the bike crash/knee injury routine she played on Richard to bite her and turn her into one of whatever she is. Since then, Daisy claims to have been searching for April and Richard so she can have a family just like her. She and April then hold out bloody dishes and repeat "Hungry." to Richard, who submits to his final fate. April and Daisy watch as Richard slowly and miserably goes upstairs, waiting for him to keep finding, killing, and cooking more people for the pair; his new "family".
