After dealing with the usual Trans misogyny and patriarchal nuisances, Ly finally arrives at her bestie Noah’s apartment to help them get ready for a date. When Ly opens Noah’s laptop to play “glamorous” tunes, she’s surprised by loud and sexually explicit content on the screen. Curious, Ly focuses on a specific image, the vagina, which triggers a deep feeling within her. She hesitantly asks Noah, Brooklyn’s resident “f*ckperson,” what a vagina feels like. In response, Noah gives a “vagina 101” lecture, and they are transported to a life-sized vagina—Ly’s first time encountering one “IRL.” Just as she begins to process this, they’re snapped back to reality by Ava, Ly’s other bestie. Ly admits that bottom surgery has been on her mind, but she’s unsure whether it’s her true desire or conditioning set by the patriarchy. Despite her friends' support, Ly remains uncertain of which path to take.
