=== Summary ===
The movie begins with a titlecard, which is just the name of the movie along with a polaroid photo sequence of two men in various different places in different poses, similar to the Texas Chainsaw Massacre titlecard, giving the viewer the impression that the movie is horror themed to surprise them in the end. The polaroids fade as the scene goes to a shot of a man leaning against the counter of a kitchen snack bar, talking to somebody off screen. The person that he is talking to eventually walks into shot and it is revealed that the person in question is Damien Dean Davidson. Damien replies with a short sentence, revealing the name of the main character to be Cory. The camera pans up, revealing the main character's face, along with a digital alarm clock in the background, revealing that it is the end of winter in 2014, more specifically February 13th, 2014, one day before valentine's day. A cutscene occurs, and the shot changes to a shot of the two in a restaurant celebrating Valentine's Day, before Cory receives a phone call, which he must go outside to take. 
He goes outside to take the phone call, and it is ended with an, "I'm busy, I love you, too" as Damien follows him outside. The scene changes to an upwards view below a glass table that Cory sits his phone down on, the "Call Ended" screen revealing that it was his mother on the other end of the phone. Damien begins to grow distant for the rest of the night, up until morning. Cory reveals to him that it was his mother on the other end. However, Damien disappears one night. This is revealed on screen in a suspenseful shot of Cory alone in bed, before rolling over, and trying to wrap his arms around somebody who isn't there: His boyfriend. The camera pans around to his face as the look of realization begins to shine through as he opens his eyes. A small hint of fear is seen as he sits up, only to realize that he is alone in the bedroom, but also most likely also alone in the house, and possibly alone in headspace. The camera goes back to where it originally was, near the other side of the bed, as Cory puts his feet on the floor, before stretching and getting out of bed. The camera follows him out of the bedroom in an eerie scene with uncomfortable ambience in the background as the bedroom door creaks open by itself before he makes his way over to it. He slowly grabs the door handle, which stops it from creaking as he steps out of the room. Cory goes to try the light switch in the kitchen, but the lights do not come on. Goosebumps are seen on his arms as the camera pans down to where his right hand is going, which is one of the kitchen drawers, before he opens it and slowly pulls out a flashlight. 
Cory powers on the flashlight, and makes his way towards the couch, before turning and going into the main hallway. He grabs a doorknob, but hesitates. He slowly and steadily turns the doorknob, revealing that it is the door leading to the basement. Cory once again tries the light switch, but it still doesn't work. He sighs, and puts one foot down on the stairs to go into the basement. He starts down the stairs as the camera follows him, his afro obstructing most of the view ahead. He reaches the last few stairs as the camera pans around his head, revealing the whole set of stairs. The door slams, seemingly by itself. Cory immediately ducks down, before crawling to the furnace, and flashing his light on the breaker, which is still working, meaning the power is out. He breathes in steadily upon seeing it working, and turns around, before flashing his camera over to the furnace, which has a crowbar right next to it. Cory picks it up, and wields the steel crowbar on his way steadily back up the stairs. Cory slowly opens the door, ensuring that it doesn't creak. Cory carefully walks across the wooden floor, making sure he avoids making the floorboards creak. The camera pans in from behind, going up to Cory's side profile as he focuses on something, his eyebrows furrow as his eyes squint. The something is revealed as the camera pans over slowly, revealing a black figure by the snack bar that Cory was leaning against in the first scene. Cory stops completely as his grip on the crowbar is strengthened as he gets into a defensive stance, ready to strike at the figure. The figure looks at him, before turning on a flashlight. Cory raises his arms, which, in turn, raises the crowbar, revealing that he is armed. The figure turns the flashlight around to shine it on itself, revealing that it is human, and a man. The camera pans back to Cory as his eyes squint once more. Cory calls out to him, "Brandon?". The figure nods, and starts towards him. Cory sits the crowbar down, before turning on his flashlight. 
Brandon reveals that, whilst cramming for one of his midterms (that Cory already had done), the power went out at his house. The two begin to talk to each other, as Brandon reveals that he came over to see if the power was also out for him, and to see if he could plug his laptop in and use the internet to get his midterms done. Cory sighs, and tries the light again, but, to no avail, they still do not work. Brandon sighs, and replies that he'll just have to "take it up" with his professor, to which Cory agrees, before sighing, and walking past him, the camera following him. Brandon stops him. The camera pans back around, as does Cory. Brandon begins to ask him what's wrong. Cory replies, "I don't know yet". Brandon sits down on the couch, and sighs, before suggesting that the two should see if any of their friends have power. Cory replies, "Maybe you should just wait it out" in a firm tone, before turning around and walking half way out of frame, before getting stopped yet again by Brandon. Cory turns around, a crushed look on his face. Brandon asks him where Damien went, making Cory clench his jaw in response. Brandon apologizes, and asks him what happened. Cory backtracks, replying with a firm "I don't know yet" again. Brandon chuckles nervously, "That's Drifter for you..", he responds, with a tone of slight uncertainty hidden in his response while also trying to bring light to the situation. Cory doesn't respond, but instead walks out of frame once more.
Cory opens the bedroom door, before closing and locking it, and throwing himself on the bed. He gets comfortable in a cutscene series of different positions, before he finally sighs and moves Damien's old pillow, before holding it and drifting off to sleep. A fading cutscene reveals that morning has come, but also reveals the sight of tears on the pillow. Cory forces himself out of bed, and unlocks the door, before walking out of the room. Cory sees that the couch is empty, and sighs, before looking out of the front window. He walks back into the main hallway, and knocks on the bathroom door, before going on to try the doorknob. It opens, revealing that Brandon has already left. He sighs, and tries the light once more. The lights come on, which grants him the permission to let out a sigh of relief. 
A sequence of shots of Cory getting into bed at night and out of bed at morning occur, revealing that Damien seemingly never returned. It also reveals that Cory's mental health slowly begins to deteriorate at first, but deteriorates like rust in rain towards the end of the sequence. Months pass, and Damien never returns, which is revealed by a sequence of scenes of his calendar, a new x appearing in every shot, before whole months pass between shots. Cory's mental health is eventually completely destroyed, and this is revealed in a shot of him walking alone in downtown Royal Oak, tears streaming down his face as snow begins to fall, though he is wearing a short sleeved shirt and sweatpants. Polaroids are seen on screen, revealing that he and Damien previously walked that exact street in the past. Every polaroid revealing that, though the scenery changed over time, their outfits did not. Cory stops on the sidewalk, before turning, the camera panning in the direction that he is looking in, revealing that he is looking at a park. The screen goes black, before cutting to a scene of him running through the park, tears still streaming steadily and heavily down his face. He looks around, but, to no avail, his companion is nowhere to be seen. He drops to his knees, scaring a nearby family that is now under the impression that he is a junkie. The family calls the police after he passes out on the ground. A cutscene occurs, revealing that he is now in a hospital, on a metal table. He panics, before the doctor walks in the room. Cory asks the doctor where he is, and the location is revealed to be a hospital nearby where he passed out. He reassures Cory that it is a simple checkup, and that it won't take long at all. Cory hesitantly allows this to happen, and the doctor does his job. He is released within a few minutes.
After a cutscene, taking Cory back home, it is revealed that his sadness is beginning to turn into anger, and he turns it towards himself. He storms into the bathroom, before putting up a piece of paper up on the mirror with writing on it. The writing is revealed as he takes off his jacket, the camera panning towards the mirror, pushing Cory out of sight as he seemingly strips his clothes. The reason is revealed as the camera zooms into the paper slowly, the writing reading "FIND OUT WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME", in all capitals. A cutscene occurs once more, leaving Cory in bed. This scene reveals that he has now turned to watching TV shows regularly to take his mind off of his recent loss. A sequence of these scenes occur. In the first sections, the shows change, there is variety. Towards the end, they are all the same, it even gets to the point that some of the same episodes are played constantly. Cory is revealed to have started to watch TV obsessively to get his mind off of things. He begins watching the shows that Damien liked, whether he likes them or not, at an attempt to summon him. Cory finally begins to remember some of the buried memories that he stored in his head, one of them being that, eventually, Damien returned, but Cory was too far gone to realize at first. Damien desperately attempted to bring him to "The New", which leaves Cory upset and confused upon hearing so. Damien brought him to the Waiting Room, and it loads for him before Cory. Damien explains to him that he will have to wait for it to load and then come with him. Damien goes to "the new", which unknowingly causes Cory to get kicked from the Waiting Room, but brings Damien to the Traditional Headspaces with a new introject of Cory, which is evil, and has none of the same values as him, though Damien doesn't know, which makes Damien think that it's the real Cory. 
Back in the Traditional Headspaces, all hell breaks loose as Cory's introject begins cheating on Damien with somebody that he claims to have the same name as his sister. Damien is broken, and leaves the traditional headspaces, which doesn't phase Cory whatsoever. Cory continues to deteriorate in the First Headspaces, which Damien is completely oblivious to and unaware of. Brandon finally gets Damien to meet him in the newer headspaces, and tells him, "Sometimes Cory doesn't even act like Cory". There is a long pause as the two stare at each other in disbelief as the face of realization hits them. Damien begins to break down as Brandon tries to get him to stop, explaining that they have to save Cory from the First Headspaces, and that he will have to focus in order to be able to save Cory. Months pass as Damien cries and tries to access the Waiting Room, convincing himself that it's all his own fault that Cory couldn't come back with him on his way to the newer headspaces. Brandon never reaches The Waiting Room, but Damien can. Damien eventually shows up in the waiting room as the movie ends with a scene of him cupping his head in his hands as the Waiting Room's main screen continuously loads, before stopping and saying "ERROR"
