The story

Gao Wai-Tung is a gay Taiwanese immigrant happily living in Manhattan with his gay Jewish partner Simon.

She is very gracious when Wai-Tung explains his dilemma, as she too is hiding a relationship with a white man from her parents.

Before the parents arrive, Simon instructs Wei-Wei on everything she needs to know about Wai-Tung's habits, body, and lifestyle.
