These reviews attempt to determine why a very hard working very smart law student goes from student to full time sex work by examining her sexual interactions. In this episode, there are four encounters, three on-screen and one off-screen.
Christine gets more interested in sex work first thoroughly checking out Avery's website. Then she talks to Avery about the life and ends up meeting her pimp, Jacqueline. She has pictures taken for her web page and Jacqueline soon sets her up with two clients.
In the first episode, it's revealed that she shares an apartment with a male student who has a woman over for the night. In this episode we find out that he and Christine have somewhat of a sexual past that's over but we really never are told the nature and extent of it.
She then pays $60 for a cab out to Avery's client's house where she meets Martin a second time. They return to the city where he rents a room and pays her for the second time. She has sex with Martin (for the second time?) but nothing can be gleaned from this encounter. She rides him and moans and that's about it.
Christine or Chelsea as she is now known, then meets her first John provided by Jacqueline. He is a good looking guy who is just a few years older than she is. They go back to his place. She sucks him and applies a condom. He then stands her up and spins her around, pulls down her panties, bends her over some furniture and enters her. Her face registers surprise and a little fear, then pleasure. This may may a true emotion since he cannot see her reaction. When he turns her to face him and continues the thrusting, she becomes more animated and aroused sounding but at the end after he comes, her eyes open and she looks away denoting acting. So for the part when she was not in control, it seemed like she was turned on which indicates what?
Then the twist. Avery has been dumped by her main client and kicked out of his house. Christine allows her to move in. Christine returns from her date to find Avery in bed with a client which she does not like. Later Avery comes into her bedroom, apologizes and asks to lay down. She then kisses Christine and Christine kisses her back. Avery strips and then goes down on Christine who really gets into it.
So what do we know so far. Christine likes sex. She likes it even when she's not in full control. And she likes it with women, or at least with Avery. This is not to say that she moves into sex work because it makes sex more available to her. It does indicate that sex work is attractive to her because sex with a variety of partners is an appealing activity for her.
