After an evening at a friends get together, Lily, a young woman, ops to take a short train ride and walk home over calling an Uber. Along the way she experiences interactions with three different men. The first a middle-aged man who follows her from one stop to the next blatantly showing his true colors as a man intent on taking advantage of a woman alone. The second, a younger man, arrogant and brash who takes her disinterest for insult and a personal assault on his insecurities. The third and final interaction is with that of an Uber driver, whose wandering eyes and nuanced comments catch a girl in the most vulnerable of positions searching for an escape.
