2. Best Kept Secrets

Four middle-aged friends, Abby, Helen, Liz, and Sue, spend the weekend at Liz’s new home in the country. They decide to play a game, and after some debate, Abby suggests each woman write a secret they’ve never told on a piece of paper, which are then mixed together. The ladies each read a secret aloud as though it was their own. The game begins good-naturedly until one of the slips of paper reveals a very dark secret. After a few tense moments, Liz jokingly owns up to writing it, and the others pass it off as her bizarre sense of humor. But as the weekend progresses, Abby, Helen, and Sue continue to question if Liz’s confession was just a joke or actually the truth.
