In the morning, prior to the photoshoot, Jocelyn is woken up by her assistant Leia. She prepares for the photoshoot, and as it gets underway, Jocelyn slips her robe exposing her nipples, and the on set intimacy coordinator is not behind the idea.

He says that changing the nudity clause would allow them to shoot her naked breast, but that would take 48 hours.

People on Jocelyn's team argue about the morals of manipulating her mental health struggles for content.

Jocelyn's team goes into crisis mode when a photo of her with semen on her face and no one can tell who leaked it.

Talia from Vanity Fair shows up in the middle of the chaos. Jocelyn's team tries to find a way to twist the leak.

Andrew from Jocelyn's record label shows up.

The house becomes busy as dance choreography practice starts. Jocelyn is tired and is not doing so well nailing the choreo.

Elsewhere, Jocelyn's manager tries to get the image taken down.

The team agrees to go with the "revenge porn" angle on the leak.

Jocelyn goes to a club with her friends and meets the club owner Tedros. They hit it off and start dancing.

Tedros visits her house, and he familiarizes himself with it as she gets ready.

They drink some liquor and Jocelyn shares her concerns about the single with him. He listens to it and thinks he knows what's missing.

It's a song about sex, but the sex part is missing.

He thinks he knows how to make it better. He wraps her in a cloth as she struggles to breathe and moans.
