Plot summary

16-year-old Julie really loves her daddy Harold, but mommy Irene is a different story. She's neurotic and possibly suffering from a mid-life crisis that's led her to blame her marital problems on Julie and convince her husband to ship her off to boarding school. But fate intervenes in the form of lascivious grocery boy Weston: he attempts to rape Irene and ends up killing her. But Harold soon has a new flame, Susan, who might become Julie's stepmother. Well, not if Julie has anything to say about it.
