On an early August day, April Hall arrives at her grandmothern's place. It is revealed that April used to live in Hollywood, but as her mother Dorothea left on a tour, she sent April to her grandmother Caroline who lives in a university town in an apartment of Casa Rosada.

April is left alone and after taking in the scenery from the balcony, she decides to explore the surroundings. After buying a pair of false eyelashes in a drugstore, she enters A-Z Antiques, a shabby store next to Casa Rosada, and is fascinated by the ancient objects on display.
