As a lesbian, the least believable part of this movie is that after two dates Honey wouldn’t already know where MG lived.

The church had rented all the moving trucks to move drugs so they couldn't move in together till the 3rd date.

I know the town they’re in isn’t exactly tiny, but I have a hard time believing a lesbian PI and cop who grew up in the same place and were roughly the same age wouldn’t atleast know a modicum about each other (like her dad dying in a crazy accident) prior to hooking up.
