Billy Ray is entangled in a world of confusion, of which, unbeknownst to him, he created. The story is told through the eyes of a few people with whom Billy Ray came in contact, including his sister, "Jenna," potential boss, "Mr. Greene," and his son's mother, "Katrina," as they are all cross-examined by the State's Prosecution Team lead by the arrogant prosecutor, "Toby Johnson." From the witness stand, each tells of a different encounter with the defendant, Billy Ray, and he is slowly able to put the pieces together of his life with the help of his childhood psychotherapist, "Dr. Shelly Neiderbach."
