How Much We've Both Changed

Alyssa (Jenna Gargles) gets a call from her distant stepfather, Darryl (JJ Graves). This unsettles Alyssa, as they haven't communicated since the demise of her other parent. Darryl confesses his past mistakes, and his recent discovery about Alyssa's transition.
He expresses regret for his absence in her life and proposes a meeting. Alyssa remains skeptical but hopeful for a family connection with Darryl. She consents to meet him.
The following day, Darryl shows up, and his affection is palpable. He lavishes praise on Alyssa's attractive looks, suggesting an attraction, though she remains oblivious. She welcomes him deeper into the house, and they settle down for a chat.
Alyssa reminds him how he neglected her when she identified as a male before coming out. He tries to justify his actions citing grief over Alyssa's other parent's death, but Alyssa is not convinced. Darryl pretends to regret his past actions, apologizing for his behavior.
He asserts that they've both undergone significant changes and they should focus on what's ahead. Alyssa aspires to move forward but is still somewhat hesitant and hurt. Darryl diverts the conversation, seemingly too keen to do so.
He probes into her personal life, claiming a desire to know her better, but his intent is to gauge her relationship status. Alyssa, oblivious to his motives, is flattered by the attention and reveals that she's single. Darryl persuades Alyssa to pose for photos with him, complimenting her photogenic allure.
Alyssa is somewhat shy but agrees, and they capture some playful family photos. Darryl plants a quick kiss on her cheek, which confuses Alyssa. Darryl proceeds to ask about her transition process, offering to purchase gifts to assist.
However, things turn awkward when he oversteps his boundaries by offering to buy her intimate wear. Alyssa interrupts him. She starts connecting the dots, accusing him of showing interest only now that he finds her attractive.
His behavior is unfitting for a typical family relationship. Darryl finally admits his true intentions, confessing his sexual attraction towards her. Darryl unashamedly exploits Alyssa's desire for a family, stating his involvement in her life is contingent on her satisfying his desires.
Alyssa, taken aback but desperate for family, consents to intercourse. But can this truly provide the familial bond SHE longs for?.
