When they need assistance with a problem on the property, the all-too-helpful landlord, Eric (Emmanuel Kabongo), arrives with his wife, Millie (Brianna Goldie), to fix the issue, deliberately overstaying their welcome. The once romantic getaway quickly turns into a deadly night of survival for everyone.
