Synopsis
Award winning TV screenwriter Beth Cresswell has recently discovered Jake Chambers, star of her hit series, The Package, wants to leave.
Filming its third season, The Package is unrecognisable from her original vision and Jake plays a walking cliché of masculinity who always gets the girl. Co-creator, Kate Vernal insists the viewers want romance. This aggravates Beth who enjoys being single and a quiet life – A life disrupted by random appearances in her house by her lead character, Rhys Buxton.
Beth and Rhys have a complicated relationship, not helped by her past fling with Jake and her mixed feelings on whether she wants The Package to continue.
Rhys has fallen in love with Jane Maxwell, a new character Kate has created to placate Beth and give him a more meaningful relationship.
Rhys has started to take Beth into the fictional world of The Package where she finds she becomes Jane.
When Rhys discovers that Jake wants a clean break and has asked to be killed off he tries to persuade Beth to change the script and allow him his happy ending with Jane.
