Unable to cope, she breaks down and collides with Dr. Avery, an officious psychiatrist, who prompts her to come in for a session. Therapy is awkward, but she manages to open up, finding release through hypnotic and somatic treatment. That is until an odd coworker, Arlo Finnegan, begins a studious pursuit to vie for her attention. He eventually ends up a tree in the couples’ backyard as a voyeuristic “peeping tom” preceding a bizarre robbery where only photos and home videos are stolen.
