The Ellison Programme is an exclusive and prestigious elite school in the UK, known for its opulent setting and a student body composed of the wealthy and influential. The school thrives on excellence, ambition, and a legacy of high achievement, where students compete relentlessly to excel in academics, sports, and the arts. However, beneath the polished surface, every student harbors secrets.
Orion, a tech genius, and his best friend Cyrus develop an app called Tell Me About It (TAIM), which allows students to anonymously request help with various issues—academic or personal—for a fee. Initially, the app handles innocuous requests like homework answers and summaries, and the duo works well together, with Cyrus managing requests and Orion handling the technical side. As the app gains popularity. It had been a popular topic among students to figure out the mastermind behind it.
What starts as harmless academic help turns darker. The requests become riskier—editing forged medical excuses, accessing teacher schedules, and even aiding in the cover-up of cheating scandals. As the app grows more dangerous, photos and personal information start slipping through, threatening serious consequences. Cyrus realizes they’ve crossed a line, and urges Orion to shut down the app before things get out of control. But Orion, for reasons Cyrus doesn't understand, refuses to end the app, despite knowing the risks. Orion’s desire to continue with TAIM is firm. Why? Because Orion needs the money to pay continue in the school.
Both of them lay in Orion’s bed, staring up at the ceiling. “We must shut down the app,” Cyrus muttered bitterly, turning his head to face Orion.
They had just received one final request—an anonymous user had submitted a chilling demand through the TAIM account: kidnap a toddler. Likely a sibling of one of the students. The request was framed as a twisted form of blackmail aimed at another student. It felt like a sick joke, but for them, it was no longer a joke at all—it was a crime.
