- Robin (Valerie Bertinelli) is a popular girl in the California high school where she studies. She has not already had any sexual experience yet, on the contrary that her best friends and most of the rest of fellow students. But when Derek (Timothy Hutton), a new student arrives in town she feels highly attracted to him as well as he feels for her. He is not the usual kind of boy she is used to: he is honest, polite and conservative while she is determined and daring. They begin to date but the fact that they come from very different family values makes it somehow difficult: Robin's father left when she was a child and her mother (Fionnula Flanagan) felt so overwhelmed that she decided to avoid this could happen to her daughter by having an open-minded relationship, talking about sex freely, etc. Her partner is reluctant to get married due to an also unsuccessful previous marriage and she feels insecure and rejected because of this. So when Robin realizes she is having a crush on Derek she thinks about having sex with him. Following her mother advise, she asks her gynecologist about contraception methods available only to find out that Derek -whose parents died and is living with his sister's family- is not so sure about having sex so soon due to his' moral values. After feeling rejected she decides to look for a past boyfriend to have sex with but at the last minute she can not go on: after all maybe is not sex what Robin is seeking for but love and while her mother is messy with her own partner relationship, Robin finds out about love.
