After some over-the-top titles, we open on Sandy, who calls Dan “to talk.” Dan is outside with flowers, so she runs outside and tells him that he never should have come here. He declares his love for her, but she doesn’t seem happy to hear it. She says her family are nuts. Really.
We get some strange glimpses of Sandy’s family inside.
