Synopsis
Aged 13 Lucy attempts to get away from her dysfunctional family, an ever arguing step dad, mum and her dull teenage life by meeting up with a '16 year old boy' on a blind date with her shy friend Becks.
Dumping her friend along the way she waits in a restaurant for Tony dressed and made up as a young woman out to catch a man. The boy she has exchanged salacious text messages with turns out to be Tony who is closer to 40 than 16.
Lucy's not concerned, maybe she always knew it. He's concerned, then infatuated. She flirts, she plays games, she's witty, feisty and outrageous, but in control. There's no doubt they get on. She asks him to take her back to his place and he does.
