The New James Bond

[MacMadame]

I think one thing that adds to the narrative is that she was in the 'power' position when they met (directing him). Also, he's only 7 years older than his stepdaughter.

The power positions are all I care about in the end. Btw, I'm only 6 years younger than my step-father. But there are many things going on in their relationship that make the age different not a big deal.
