In this episode, we find ourselves on a journey of discovery with Courtney and her family. While her stepdad is finding himself in the San Francisco gay scene, Courtney is developing her predilection for the stage. Taking in anecdotes about Sylvia Plath, an unbelievable recital at a Micky Mouse Club audition and her many differing name changes, we see her become increasingly drawn to glamour. We also learn about Courtney’s introduction to the simmering racial tensions in America via relationships with family members, inspiring her love of the music of Billie Holiday and Nina Simone.
