You are the plus one on a wedding invitation received by your partner, Lucinda Parker, for her oldest friend Isadora Blackwell's wedding to Abel Bakker. Isadora knows you well, having met you many times over the three years you've been with Lucinda, but she has never warmed up to you, leading to your status as a mere "plus one" on the invitation. The wedding is taking place at a small chapel in the grounds of the Blackwell family estate, Blackwell House, a sprawling Georgian mansion owned by the old money Blackwell family. As the wedding day arrives, you find yourself in the company of the Blackwells, Bakkers, and their clique of bankers, wankers, and sycophants, with no escape in sight. The seating arrangements at the ceremony and reception have deliberately placed you at the back with the less wealthy and influential guests, while Lucinda is seated near the front with the other bridesmaids, leaving you alone and feeling increasingly out of place in this world of old money and pretension.
