A former US marine turned reality TV star is invited to Mike Jeffries' mansion in the Hamptons. He dreams of being an Abercrombie and Fitch model, and he hopes to impress the fashion mogul.
But the mood at the event begins to change and he says he soon realises this is not the interview he was expecting: "I didn't feel like I had control”.
