• Not a 1 because it is a step in the right direction
  Basic plot is that Anita goes with Jason to meet his family because his father is dying of cancer. She is playing his girlfriend because one of her boyfriends talked her into it. OK, well that really isn't the plot, the real plot is her just having sex with Jason and whoever else pops in - and annoying everyone she comes into contact with.
