A mysterious man forces four best friends to reveal terrible secrets they have all been keeping from each other. What could go wrong? With a concept fit for the Twilight Zone, this one-act play challenges ideas of friendship, loyalty, and honesty as one by one the people these girls thought they knew turn out to be horrifying and downright deceiving. In order to discover the truth, the girls must contemplate this very question: how two-faced can we truly be?
