Edie was one of Jude, Willem, JB, and Malcolm’s suitemates in college. Edie, Marta, and Francesca—who are all lesbians—were in a band together called Backfat. After college, Edie transitions, and Jude, Willem, JB, and Malcolm attend a party at Marta and Francesca’s Brooklyn apartment to celebrate the occasion. JB, who longs to return to his college days, is the only one of his friends who genuinely enjoys the party.
