Dan and Mia haven't had sex since before the birth of their son. Three months on, Dan feels forced to take extreme action and makes the decision to dress as Dr. Frank-N-Furter from The Rocky Horror Picture Show in a ham-fisted attempt to get Mia back in the mood. Not getting the reaction he expected it sparks off a comedic and revealing conversation about the most intimate parts of their relationship. Both Dan and Mia are forced to confront the change that has occurred. Comparing their frivolous past to the tame and tired present, both Mia and Dan have to accept the problems and insecurities of the other before they are able to move on. The conversation becomes make or break; do they still love each other like they used to and is that enough? Looking around at joyous photos of their past, both have to accept the end of a phase of their relationship and the beginning of a new one; it’s not going to be worse, just different, even better. Not wanting to waste the practice Dan has put in, Mia persuades him to perform ‘Sweet Transvestite’. The film ends with the song having its desired effect, his perseverance pays off and it gets them both in the mood.
