No real likable character and you can't expect there to be one with such a plot, but the execution doesn't seem to go according to plan.

Sounds like it'll be a great play, and it wasn't awful, but when the anticipated encounter actually occurs, you're thinking two things: "Why did she even go there?" and "This fell flat."

Am willing to give it a re-read, but I wasn't blown away by this in the least.
