The film opens up with Alex and Ryan, two 18 year old males, who are best friends walking in a large field that is surrounded by forests. Upon entering a small set of woods, Ryan suddenly stops and gazes at the location, obviously with something on his mind. Alex inquires to why he is stopping, and Ryan suddenly snaps into a mysterious vision. He sees the same woods location, Alex's bright red coat, and hears a distorted voice saying "Here, take this", followed by someone handing a flashlight to Alex.
Alex grabs Ryan's shoulder, and he snaps out of his vision. Ryan explains that he had a vision, but Alex comments on how he always says weird stuff like that, and convinces him to continue on. Upon the journey back to the house, Ryan keeps looking back at the woods.
Once inside watching TV, the voice of Bob, Alex's father, is heard from a room behind the couch where Alex and Ryan sit. He requests help on some small construction work, and Ryan follows Alex into the room. Bob, an intense looking 45 year old man, starts up a conversation with Alex and Ryan. Alex mentions that they went down into the field, and Bob's evil gaze reveals that something is not right about that. Alex soon has to leave for work, which allows Bob and Ryan to speak one on one.
Bob inquires to why he hasn't seen Alex and Ryan hanging out much lately. Ryan discusses in a concerned manner that Alex hasn't spoken a lot with Ryan lately, and he thinks that something has happened. Bob tries to talk it off by saying it's not a big deal, then he speaks the line that cues Ryan into knowledge that Bob is involved. "Here, take this". Upon hearing this, Ryan has a flashback clearly showing Bob and Alex down in the woods in the process of digging a hole. After he snaps out of it, Ryan quickly leaves Bob's house and heads for home. Bob watches with an intense focus as Ryan exits.
Ryan awakes in the middle of the night, realizing that he has to go back down to the field and find out for himself. He drives to Alex's house, hesitates, then takes a shovel down to the woods. However, Alex spots him out the window. During Ryan's quick journey into the same woods as before, he discovers the spot in question, which is now snowed and iced over. Ryan starts digging and discovers the dead body. He is in shock, and upon catching his breath, Alex walks up behind him. They argue, with Alex pointing out to Ryan that it should not be his problem because he was not there, and that it was a self defense situation and nothing else could be done. Ryan comes to the conclusion that he will stick by Alex, and their friendship is reformed as they decide to walk away from the situation together.
