'What hope does Gert have - when her mum's gay?
'It’s time for the ultimate test – can they all survive the dreaded family road-trip? Tex, Sal’s new girlfriend, is anything but subtle – she rolls into town in her decked out semi-trailer and expects to take the girls on a wild ride –but what she gets is much more than she’s bargained for. Simmering with teen angst and with the added frustration of Ila, Gert's little sister, absolutely loving the new GF, she snaps! Attacking Tex with most unfortunate choice of weapon and blacking out on the motel room floor, Gert comes to in the night and reconsiders the idea that Tex might just be the one thing this family needs to hold them together. They reconnect in the morning and rip up the dance floor with their disco move.'
