As weeks turn to months, the fault lines in their marriage start to show and Scott, bored and left to his own devices, decides to sneak into the seemingly vacant house next door. Exhilarated by his transgression, he soon convinces Elise to join him for a return visit, but their decision leads to a shocking discovery.
