On July, 10, 2026, five women in Hancock County, Maine, come together in a monthly, counseling group for survivors of sexual assault in a room at a rural, mental health clinic. The leader of the group is a survivor herself, and she opens the meeting requesting permission to change the usual format and spend the hour processing the events of the previous week where a Democratic frontrunner for the Senate has been compelled to withdraw from the race, because of a credible allegation of sexual assault. Both candidate and accuser live in Hancock County.
