Allison (Casey Calvert) has a conversation with her friend Sandra (Kira Noir). Kira asks Allison how the divorce is going. Allison says that it took her quite a while to not resent her ex-husband anymore, especially since she had to come to terms with the fact that he was gay and had kept it a secret from her for so long.
Allison explains that she felt like a fool for not realizing he was gay, and she was upset that he took YEARS of her life that she can’t get back. But then she started to realize that maybe she never really loved him either, at least not in THAT way. Had she just been influenced by the same pressures from society that he had? Did she ever really want this marriage to begin with, or did she just go along with what she THOUGHT was normal and expected of her?
Sandra looks sympathetic as Allison says that now that she’s single, she’s realizing that she doesn’t even know who she is… It feels like she’s meeting herself for the first time, as she has come to realize that maybe – like her husband – she doesn’t even like the opposite sex. Allison admits that she thinks she may be queer, but how can she be sure when she doesn’t even KNOW any lesbians… She has so many questions that NOBODY can answer for her.
Sandra offers to put Allison in contact with someone she knows: Lily (Whitney Wright), who is a lesbian as well as a really nice person. Sandra says that maybe Lily can help Allison to find some of the answers she’s looking for… Or at the very least, maybe Allison can make a new friend.
A few days later, Allison arrives home with Lily after having a wonderful and informative conversation at a cafe. Allison thanks Lily for her time, and apologizes for asking her so many questions. But Lily assures her that no apology is necessary, pointing out that Allison has been through a tough ordeal. Lily says she’s glad that she could help provide some clarity. In a flirtatious tone, Lily adds that she REALLY had fun getting to know Allison.
Allison is flustered, and asks if Lily is flirting with her – it’s been YEARS since anyone flirted with her, plus she’s never had a WOMAN do that with her before, so she guesses she’s just oblivious to these kinds of cues. Lily playfully offers to be more direct, and gives Allison a kiss that makes her quiver at the knees.
