Contents |
In June 1983, in Dutchess County, New York, Sebastian Cole (Adrian Grenier) joins his mother, stepfather, and sister for dinner. Hank (Clark Gregg), Sebastian's stepfather, drops a bomb: he announces that he is having a sex change operation. Sebastian's sister leaves immediately for California, and his mother (Margaret Colin) takes him back to England. Eight months later, Sebastian is back in New York, knocking on Hank's door. Hank (now Henrietta) takes Sebastian in and supports him over the next few months of high school. Sebastian's "adventures" are mostly self-destructive.
