This young woman is... On the train.

She's on the train headed outside the city of New York.

Because she's ashamed that she has to take an HIV test.

Because two nights prior, her ex of five years tells her, I have HIV and you need to go get tested.

She has to write down all the names of her lovers.

And at the top of the list is her stepfather.

Is her stepfather.

I would share this.

You know, not until I had to count for the bio.

25 years and being on Netflix for five years has just garnered a whole new audience.

We're going to have a season two.

We start rolling cameras tomorrow.

Yes.

I think it was about day three or day four, and we were number one.
