Plot
Tru Richmond, 37, is a serial bed-hopping lesbian who cannot commit to a relationship or a job for long.
Restless by nature and wounded by the past, she seems to live from pillar to post, from mattress to mattress, bobbing along through life with no anchor to ground her. She gets by on her wits, her considerable good looks and charm — but at her age, it is all starting to wear a little thin.
Tru meets 60-year old widow Alice Beacon, who came to town to visit her daughter Suzanne, a too-busy corporate lawyer. Suzanne, 35, is Tru's friend.
When Tru meets Alice, sparks fly and Alice and Tru begin forging an unlikely friendship. Suzanne, who has a deeply conflicted relationship with her mother and a complicated and a secret past with Tru, becomes increasingly alarmed at the growing bond between Tru and Alice.
After Suzanne witnesses an intimate moment between the two, feeling jealous and threatened, she tries to sabotage the budding romance only for it to backfire.
