Romy Mathis, the CEO of a robotic process automation company in New York City, is dissatisfied with her sex life with her husband, Jacob, a theater director. While on the way to work one day, she is almost mauled by a dog until a young man stops and calms it down. That young man, Samuel, turns out to be an intern at Romy’s company and picks Romy as his ‘mentor’ through the company’s mentorship program. Samuel propositions Romy during a private meeting; she objects, then gives in and kisses him. Initially conflicted about the incident, the two later meet at a hotel. Romy expresses concern that she may be taking advantage of Samuel due to their power difference, but Samuel explains to her that he is the one with the power, as he could get her fired “with one phone call”. Romy comes to an intense orgasm at the hotel in dominance and submission dynamic with Samuel the dominant partner; however, Romy sobs with deep conflict about her enjoyment of this experience after the orgasm. The two continue to meet at multiple rendezvous, their sexual affair gaining considerable intensity.
