Olivia, Bertucci, and Codman were the trio no one else in high school could quite figure out, an impenetrable triangle of friendship. Now they're graduating and about to start new lives away at college and without each other.

None of them can open the box before sunrise. Over the course of the night, the trio is then forced to face each other, the events of the past year, and whatever is to come when the new day dawns.
