Story Guide
Episode 1
It's Hazel's wedding night, and the after-party game is simple: husband and wife kiss for three minutes. Instead, Eden pulls his secretary Heather into his arms and kisses her—for the full three minutes—while the room goes stiff. Then he tosses cash at Hazel and tells her to take the money and stop acting wronged. Hazel stays eerily calm. She drops her wedding ring onto the money and says they never even registered the marriage. "We're done." Eden smashes a whiskey glass and fumes, but Hazel walks away from the man she once loved, saying today's wedding can count as her helping him get some experience.
Episode 2
Heather won't let it go. She draws another game slip: the bride must kneel before the groom and bark like a dog ten times to prove her "loyalty." Eden says nothing to stop it. The room squirms, but Heather pushes—maybe Hazel should just start barking for more cash. Hazel looks at the red bedspread she picked out herself, now wrinkled from Eden and Heather making out on it. A few days ago she'd pictured a future on that bed. Now she feels nothing but resolve. She refuses to crawl, and the wedding-night fantasy dies for good.
Episode 3
Hazel fires back, mocking Heather's eagerness to play the dog. A glass of red wine flies at her head; Eden yanks Heather close and snaps at Hazel to stop bullying a "young girl." Then he twists the knife: she's a broke part-time art teacher, her paycheck is embarrassing, she's living well because of him, and she couldn't even bring a decent dowry—she just wanted to marry up. He threatens not to register the marriage at all. What he doesn't know: Hazel's dowry has been ready for ages, a mountain of assets she'd planned to surprise him with on registration day.
Episode 4
The truth lands: he doesn't deserve it. Hazel grabs her coat and walks out—into a snowstorm. Eden calls after her, petty to the last: the twelve-thousand-dollar jacket is his, so leave it, along with every card he gave her. A friend begs him to relent; it's twenty below and her clothes are too thin. Eden refuses, demanding she bow her head, admit she was wrong, and get along with Heather. Hazel remembers how he once threw out her cheap jackets, then promised she'd never freeze again. She regrets ever believing he was decent.
Episode 5
It's two in the morning, no cab, no hotel for miles. Eden makes a call and bars Hazel from every hotel in New York—a deliberate obedience test to show he controls her life. Instead of folding, Hazel slaps his cards on the table, pulls off the coat, and throws it into the fireplace. The flames light up Eden's shock as she runs into the snow. She finds an internet cafe, orders hot coffee, and starts to thaw—until her eyelids go heavy and the owner's hands are on her. The coffee was drugged. She bites her tongue, shoves him off, and locks herself in the bathroom.
Episode 6
Her phone at one percent, Hazel answers Eden's call—and he asks where she put the condoms he brought back from France, so he can "teach Heather some experience." She begs for help: the cafe owner is trying to assault her. Heather sneers that all gold diggers are this calculating and claims there's no internet cafe on that street. Eden accuses Hazel of lying to play the victim and hangs up. Her phone dies. Something in her goes cold—then the bathroom lock turns. The owner bursts in, grabs her hair, and grins: he has a key.
Episode 7
The owner taunts Hazel—her man is busy with another woman and won't come. Then a crash: patrol cops force the shutter open and pull him off her. A witness had seen him drug her cup and called them. At the hospital they treat her, take her statement, and give her a thick coat. The next morning she quits the studio, buys clothes, and prepares to fly home—until Eden's bodyguards box her in. Eden is hosting a banquet at the Saint Regis for Heather's two-year anniversary and wants Hazel there to "perform." They drag her into the car.
