Afternoon Delight is a 2013 American ComedyDrama film written and directed by Jill Soloway. The film stars Kathryn Hahn, Creator/JunoTemple, Creator/JoshRadnor, and Creator/JaneLynch.

The story follows Rachel (Hahn),a quick-witted and lovable stay-at-home mother. Frustrated with the realities of preschool auctions, a lackluster sex life and career that's gone kaput, she visits a strip club to spice up her marriage and meets [=McKenna=] (Temple), a stripper she adopts as her live-in nanny.

!!Provides examples of:

* AmbiguouslyBi: Rachel does love her husband, but she seems to have an UnresolvedSexualTension towards [=McKenna=].
* AndStarring: Creator/JaneLynch in the OBB.
* BetaCouple: Bo and Stephanie.
* BittersweetEnding: [[spoiler: Rachel and [=McKenna=] will never likely be friends again, but both of them are happy, with Rachel and Jeff's marriage being refueled and [=McKenna=] starts running her own strip club.]]
* BlackBestFriend: Bo to Jeff and Rachel.
* CorruptionOfAMinor: Near the end, Rachel feels very uncomfortable that [=McKenna=] is taking care of young girls because of her background. This doesn't sit well with [=McKenna=], which then leads to a bigger problem.
* DirtyOldMan: [=McKenna=] "regular customer". [[spoiler: The same one who "causes the rift" between her and Rachel]].
* EvenTheGirlsWantHer: Rachel and Stephanie compliments [=McKenna=] quite often, usually saying how hot she is.
* GirlOnGirlIsHot: Jeff pays [=McKenna-] to give Rachel a lap dance at the beginning of the film. Later on, [=McKenna=] gave Rachel a very sensual massage that leads to AlmostKiss of sorts.
* GoodGirlsAvoidAbortion: Averted. Rachel apparently got pregnant in college and took care of it.
* HappilyMarried: Double Subverted. Rachel and Jeff do have a normal life, but it's boring both of them out and they have some issues with their relationship. The film then shows how they both [[EarnYourHappyEnding have to earn their way]] to become a happily married couple.
* HookerWithAHeartOfGold: [=McKenna=] is perhaps a {{Deconstruction}} of this, as no matter how Rachel (and Jeff in an extent) tries to help her have a "better direction in life" and [=McKenna=] herself being at least willing to try, being a hooker/stripper is the only thing she knows as a means of supporting herself. By the time Rachel bitterly accepts the fact, things went FromBadToWorse.
* MsFanservice: [=McKenna=], naturally. Being one ''is'' her job, in fact.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Had Rachel stick with her original plan and took [=McKenna=] with her so she can take care of her and her friend's children, [[spoiler: [=McKenna=] wouldn't sleep with the husband of one of Rachel and Jeff's friends and break their family.]]

* ShoutOutThemeNaming: The name of Creator/JaneLynch's character and her girlfriend are [[Creator/EllenDeGeneres Lenore]] and [[Creator/PortiaDeRossi Portia]].
* TheShrink: Dr. Lenore combines Types II and II, as she did helped Rachel on finding her resolve, but having her set of own problems at the same time.
* YourCheatingHeart: [[spoiler: One of Rachel and Jeff's friends cheated on his wife with [=McKenna=]. Problem is, the wife is ''also'' their friend.]]
