Synopsis (via Lifetime)
An obsessive fan kidnaps a former child star to live out the fantasy of having her character as a best friend. Meghan Carrasquillo, and Lauren Cole star (2025).
Recap/Wine Thoughts
The movie begins with a young girl named Ellen sitting close to a TV set watching a kids’ sitcom called “From the Heart,” while drowning out her parents’ drunken fighting.
Cut to the current day, LA. The favorite TV show is getting a reboot, with most of the cast returning due to an explosion of popularity on streaming. Everyone except Delilah. Ms. DeDe is a teacher of high school theatre, AKA hell. Her former co-star Cody is still out there acting in foot fungal commercials, and he is waiting for that reboot to get underway. (The producer, Barry, calls and tries to convince Delilah to sign on. She gives him her blessing to recast her part.) Cody takes Delilah to dinner and tries to change her mind. “It would REALLY help his career.”
The movie flashes back to the set of “From the Heart,” which looks like a Full House/Boy Meets World knockoff. Delilah’s mother is a stage mom who scolds her daughter “for being tired on her own time.”
Delilah has very traumatic memories from being a child actor.
Speaking of awkwardness, fans (Called “the Hearts”) become outraged when they learn that Delilah is not returning and harass her on social media. The other cast members do interviews with the press and insist that Delilah will change her mind. Delilah also gets mail at her house with threatening messages.
Delilah grades papers at a local coffee shop and chats with a barista with WILD hair about her show, maybe getting rebooted. The barista is actually adorable, if not socially awkward. Delilah continues to vent to the barista throughout the movie. The barista’s name is Ellen, and she offers to give Delilah a ride home to protect her.
Delilah installs security cameras in her home to ward off creepy stalkers who are empowered to harass her in service of the reboot. That doesn’t stop the haters from throwing rocks through Delilah’s window. The police tell Delilah she is a public figure and needs to deal with it and find a new place to stay.
Ellen hears about Delilah’s predicament and offers her a room at her place. Ellen is sweet and promises it will be fun to be roommates for a few days. Her place is convenient enough to be above the coffee shop. Delilah is thankful to have a place to rest and even fixes breakfast the next day. (The eggs look a lot overdone.) Ellen casually mentions house-sitting for her parents while Delilah jokes about setting booby traps for the haters!
Delilah’s mother shows up next to try to convince Delilah to do the reboot. The mother calls Delilah ungrateful and laughs at her when Delilah’s car is vandalized. Delilah calls the police and accuses her mother of being the one sending threatening messages. Delilah decides to go with Ellen to her parents’ house, which is way out of town without cell service or Wi-Fi. (If those weren’t red flags enough, Ellen was homeschooled.)
Ellen and Delilah drink wine and commiserate about their troubled childhoods. They agree that life is not fair. Then the dryer breaks and Delilah has to wear clothes that look oddly similar to her costume in “From the Heart.” Then, the car conveniently breaks down, and they can’t go into town.
Delilah looks for clothes to change into and finds Ellen’s closet filled with magazines and notebooks idolizing Delilah’s character, Chelsea, in “From the Heart.” Ellen catches her and stabs Delilah in the neck with a syringe. When Delilah wakes up, she is chained up and locked in a replica of her TV in the living room. Ellen calls Delilah and Chelsea and pretends they are IN the TV show. Ellen’s parents aren’t actually out of town for the weekend. They are dead… and Ellen killed them?
Delilah tries to escape but realizes that the only way out is through, and she pretends to BE Chelsea. Delilah has difficulty remembering the show’s plotlines, but Ellen is an expert and is thrilled to correct her while they paint nails and gossip about boys. Delilah tries to escape and steals Ellen’s keys. Ellen sedates Delilah again, and this time, she handcuffs her until she can earn back her privileges.
The relationship between Ellen and Delilah mirrors Delilah’s relationship with her mother. Ellen promises that she is just trying to protect Delilah from the crazy fans who are harassing her. Delilah is surprised that Ellen wasn’t the one sending her messages with threats.
Cody hasn’t heard from Delilah, and neither have the police. Cody is more interested in finding her than the detectives and visits the coffee shop. Ellen denies ever noticing Delilah and says she can’t help him. Another barista chases after Cody to tell him that Ellen is a habitual liar and a little off her rocker. When Cody tells Hot Cop, the cop and Cody have some passive-aggressive banter.
Meanwhile, Delilah breaks free of her chains and busts out of the basement with a fire extinguisher, but the house is booby-trapped more than Kevin’s house in Home Alone. Delilah’s situation looks hopeless. She is bloody and bruised when Ellen finds her. They sit down to watch more of “From the Heart” together.
Since the police won’t help find Delilah. Cody decides to follow Ellen on her way home from the coffee shop. He sees Ellen eating hamburgers in the basement with Delilah. Elle catches him and sedates him, and then she handcuffs him, too. Delilah continues to play Chelsea and acts out some fan fiction with Cody, much to Ellen’s delight.
At first, Cody is confused about AF but realizes it is the only way for them to get out and proposes to Delilah. Then Delilah grabs a bad and pretends to be angry that Cody/Danny cheated on her. She swings the bat and clocks Ellen in the head, knocking her out long enough for them to get outside and avoid the booby traps.
Ellen wakes up and screams after them. As they are running, Cody mentions the car’s Vandalism, and he is the one sending threatening messages. Instead of running away, they argue until Ellen runs Cody over with her car. Ellen shoots a gun at Delilah and then has a breakdown. She admits to killing her parents as police pull up.
Five weeks later, Delilah is putting on a high school production of Shakespeare, and her mother shows up to support, which is honestly too little, too late.

The twist near the end with the male costar was so random. But I loved it lol! Actress that played Ellen was amazing, as was everyone else. Kudos to Haylie and the rest of the cast and crew!
“Flop era” is sending me 😭😭
Absolutely!
How was there no mention of her waking up that first time.. in the 90s! I was a little jealous, minus the kidnapping.
You are dead wrong 😀 (If those weren’t red flags enough, Ellen was homeschooled.)
Lifetime Trope: staying with or allowing one to stay with you when they are a complete stranger. The local barista, someone you just met at yoga class, a student/teacher, etc. It is so annoying when someone supposedly bright, makes foolish decisions. I wanted this girl to get knocked out, but on the other hand she isn’t well and I felt so sorry for her and felt she needed to be with Delilah’s mother so they could live happily ever after. And you had a fire extinguisher in your hand…where did it go after you used it to break out of basement…hmm. Made.absolutely.no.sense.
