Overview
Peter Gibney is a long time agent who is known in the modeling industry for being kind, generous and supportive of the people he represents. Model Hope Harmon has been with Peter the longest of all his clients, close to 15 years. They have a very close, familial relationship and as a result,have made each other very successful. There is a major clothing client, Braden-Willoughby, that Peter has been trying to book Hope with, but the client has confided to Peter that they are not remotely interested in Hope, unless she were willing to undergo, in their words "dramatic changes". While visiting Hope on the set of her latest photo shoot, Peter tries to carefully discuss some hard truths about her future as a model.
