Synopsis: A woman is brought money and sex that she has never asked for. Dwelling on a passing sweetness and descending into dark demanding self-investigation, through warmth and sentimentality, flirting and lying and admitting the truth, we are shown in this play an image of romance that is inextricably linked to human wrongfulness, irrationality and self deceit - ugly, naked, a sickness that is uniquely human looking us shamefully in the eye, indiscernible from rape, from prostitution, asking no questions, giving us no answers.
