Geschichte
Athena Cockburn, suffering from debilitating migraines and lack of energy, has seen her sex life with boyfriend Jacob York stagnate. Frustrated by this situation, Jacob devises a plan to trick Athena into taking what he claims is a new medication for her migraines. Unbeknownst to Athena, the pill is actually a placebo concocted by Jacob himself, designed to cause its user's libido to explode. Athena unwittingly takes the pill and soon finds herself experiencing an intense surge of sexual desire, leading to renewed passion between her and Jacob initially. However, things quickly spiral out of control when Athena's libido becomes insatiable, leaving Jacob unable to keep up with her and causing him to regret his ill-advised prank.
