NATHAN PORTER (23) has a dream about his time as a soldier, where he found a colleague had assaulted and murdered a young girl before killing himself.
In the present, Nathan has become a talented artist. His accomplishments land him a job as an assistant animator at Delmar Studios. As he struggles to make friends, a designer named DOREEN (?) flirts with him.
While sketching, Nathan is informed that former voice actress VIOLET DELMAR (40), who is the wife of studio head NORMAN DELMAR (?), is trying to become a serious actress. Nathan meets Violet and the two have chemistry, despite Violet's married status.
Nathan attempts to date a woman named JASMINE (?), but when he mentions serving in the war, her questions make him uncomfortable.
At work, the male animators make disparaging comments about Violet, and Norman joins in, prompting Nathan to verbally scold them, while Violet hears all of it. Later, the vengeful animators splice one of Nathan's college drawings into the latest project, and Norman thinks Nathan's drawing is reminiscent of Violet, prompting Nathan to be fired.
Nathan and Violet have lunch together before separating.
Nathan finds work elsewhere, while Violet lands the lead role in an indie darling. A year later,...
