A Nigerian-American woman battling depression resists a trip that will get her life on track until she is faced with an unexpected supernatural visitor in her home while fighting over her situationship.
Ibironke is a Nigerian-American woman who is stagnant in her life and she engages in self destructive behaviors to cope.

Her concerned sister calls her one day, and poses that she join her on a family trip to Nigeria for spiritual assistance. Ibironke is totally against this, and continues to engage in her bad habits. One vice includes a casual relationship with an engaged prospective business partner who has a baby on the way.

Ibironke invites him over to get to the bottom of this issue and their post-sex discussion accelerates into a fight. In the midst of the argument, an ancestor who has dropped Easter eggs all throughout her day makes an appearance in her mirror, terrifying Ibironke. She immediately knows this climatic sighting is a radical call for change, responds by ending her situationship, and changing her mind to join her sister on their life-changing return back home.
