Burgeoning writer Arabella returns to London where she's greeted by a deluge of messages from her literary agents. With a matter of hours left to finish a draft of her second book, she plans to pull an all-nighter - but is soon tempted to join a friend on a night out.

Lunch with Terry gets Arabella thinking about the hazy events of the previous night, prompting her to probe Simon for answers. Increasingly desperate to put together the pieces, Arabella drops by Simon's apartment and, later, finds herself at an unwelcoming doorstep.

Three months earlier, Terry visits Arabella in Ostia, Italy, where she's living large on her agents' dime. After procuring party favours, Arabella and Terry each have a wild night of their own.

Back in London and two months after the incident, Arabella meets with a therapist who encourages her to find ways to cope with her trauma. Still anticipating the first draft of Arabella's book, her agents assign another client to help her with the writing process.

Arabella reassesses a sexual encounter with Zain and, following a promising new lead in the investigation, opens up to Biagio. Later, Arabella threatens to break the internet when she goes off script at a literary event. Kwame is prompted to report his own assault.

Arabella attends a support group for rape and sexual assault survivors run by a high school acquaintance, Theo. In a flashback, teenage Arabella and Terry intervene when a resourceful, troubled young Theo tries to flip the narrative on consensual sex gone sideways.

Broke and out of options, Arabella takes a day job. Birthday girl Terry takes covert measures to ensure Simon won't make a surprise appearance at her party. The festivities find Kwame avoiding reminders of his assault while Terry airs her suspicions about Theo.

Reeling from a demoralising development in the investigation, Arabella hatches a risky plan to "spark joy" - and convinces Terry to bankroll it. Still navigating the fallout of his own assault, Kwame challenges himself to explore the full spectrum of his sexuality.

Arabella's bloated social media presence finds her more glued to her phone than ever, perpetually internalising the stress of her fans. Kwame opens up to the girls about his recent sexual experiment and Arabella's reaction lands her in an emergency session with Carrie.

When Simon inadvertently drops a bomb on Arabella, she heads to her mum's birthday dinner, where painful, long-forgotten memories bubble to the surface. Kwame's no-strings-attached hook-up bender leads him to Tyrone: a stranger in search of a special kind of connection.

Arabella's obsession with a fellow author leads to unexpected progress on her book, despite a devastating setback. Kwame wades into new waters with Tyrone and tries to make amends with a disgruntled ex. Terry joins Arabella in staking out the bar where she was spiked.

When Arabella's memory of January 22nd comes rushing back to her, she drags the last of her demons out from under the bed - once and for all.
