Ling, a teenager born and raised in the U.S., has a tendency toward American things: she speaks English even when spoken to in Chinese, isn't very conservative about the way she dresses (much to her Tiger Mom's dismay), and is secretly dating an older white boy whose calling in life is rock n' roll.
One night, Ling's mom walks in on what looks like her secret boyfriend halfway through the window and into Ling's bed. What starts as a lecture on house rules quickly escalates into a physical fight that leaves Ling feeling she's lost her mother, and her mother wondering if they ever had each other to begin with.
