Jade has always been taken for granted by the people around her - her family, her boyfriend, her boss. She tries to push back, but can't find her voice. Then one day she finds a script outside her house, depicting another argument with her boyfriend in which Jade doesn't stand up for herself. 
 
But this argument hasn't happened yet... Until later on, when the script becomes reality. 
 
Then more scripts appear, predicting scenarios in which Jade's boss, mum, and bridezilla sister walk all over her. 
 
But the only way to re-write the scripts is for Jade to find her voice.
