Scandalous. That is the only way to describe what happens when an angry teen runs away from her mother and goes to find her gay half-brother like in The Opposite of Sex starring Christina Ricci. You might expect a settled teacher in a nice home would be a calming influence on such a girl, but only if she let him. If she instead decided to seduce his younger lover and become pregnant, there would be a much different outcome. Then you might expect impending motherhood to have a positive influence on a young girl. Or, she might steal the ashes of her brother’s former dead love, his current living love and some money and show up later with a plan to blackmail him for even more money. There are a few turns that you don’t quite expect including the fate of the baby.
