Brit who makes him laugh like no one else. Brit . . . who is white. As Frank falls in love for the very first time hes forced to confront the fact that while his parents sacrificed everything to raise him in the land of opportunity their traditional expectations dont leave a lot of room for him to be a regular American teen.
