About this episode

Trapped at the bottom of a ravine after a failed kidnapping, a badly injured man clings to life while cradling something tiny and writhing in his hands. As he drifts between agony, starvation, and delirium, he recounts the obsessive love affair that destroyed his life—a fixation on a woman named Eve that slowly curdled into jealousy, desperation, and madness after she married another man and started a family of her own. Alone in the wreckage of his shattered car with no hope of rescue and his body literally beginning to rot around him, the man spirals deeper into horrifying rationalizations as hunger and obsession push him toward an unthinkable decision.
