One day, a new teen, Mika, is seated at the dinner table. Alicia notices that this boy not only pays attention to her, but is also somehow different. A flirtation begins, but when Alicia walks into her room and 15-year-old Mika is undressing next to her bed, Alicia wants to throw him out. Especially when it turns out that Mika is not a boy at all, but her new roommate Michaela (Sophie "Liam" Aller).
