Stacey worked for Lawyer Larry for the last give years in his home office. Stacey is smart and very good with people and indispensable to Larry's business. He sometimes took her to networking functions where she mixed and mingled with potential clients and talked up her boss. Stacey finds herself drinking and hobnobbing harder than ever before, sometimes staying on at the event even after Larry has left. One raw and rainy evening just before Christmas, after several drinks, Stacey found herself one of the last to leave a party at the golf club. As she was getting her coat, she found herself in the empty cloak room where Brian, one of the potential clients she was talking to during the evening told her she looked ravishing and offered to help her with her coat. What transpired afterwards would be described as inappropriate touching and some kissing. Stacey broke loose and ran to her car. Fumbling for keys, she did not realize she had dropped her smartphone in the parking lot. Understandably upset, she drove away hastily and, coming around a turn too fast down the dark country road she crashed into a guardrail and passed out. A few minutes later, Meaghan and her one year old son, Sam were driving to pick up her husband from the Christmas party. Coming around the same turn, Meaghan did not see Stacey's stalled car and slammed into it. Sam was not properly secured to his car seat and was seriously injured. In all the turmoil over the past few weeks, Stacey had forgotten to renew her car insurance.

Meanwhile, Stacey's smartphone was picked up by Brian. Feeling rebuffed by Stacey, he posted some personal and confidential and proprietary information of Larry's clients from the smartphone on his website.
