You season 1 begins when Beck and Joe meet in a bookstore
Plot: “You” tells the story of Joe Goldberg, a charming and seemingly mild-mannered New York City bookstore manager.

Joe’s obsession grows, and he begins to acquire information about Beck through social media and other means, gradually entering her life.
Joe takes drastic and often ethically questionable lengths to inject himself into Beck’s environment, motivated by his perverted notion of love and the assumption that he knows what’s best for her.
