Two boys met online, hiding their identities behind social media accounts; Jude — a runaway streamer escaping from his abusive father, and Marcus — the son of a corrupt corporate family. They formed a secret bond, confiding in each other during hard times.

A fateful coincidence leads to Jude discovering that his online friend, Marcus, attends the same school as him. Realizing the troubles that might lead to exposing both Marcus and himself, Jude kept his newfound knowledge a secret, growing obsessed and stalking Marcus.
Sensing something off around his surroundings, Marcus hires a student to track his stalker and learns that it's the popular streamer Jude.
As Marcus directly confronts him, Jude directly reveals that he is his online friend to avoid further complications.

Just as Jude’s streaming career started taking off, he was suddenly exposed for his hidden controversial behaviors online, ultimately destroying his reputation.
Now that he was left with revenue inadequate to support his living expenses, Jude becomes desperate and turns to Marcus for help.
