Mia Cross is the teenage daughter of Bill Cross, and had sex with Hank Moody in the Pilot. Hank subsequently overcame his writer's block after this, and wrote the treatment for a novel; which Mia then stole, adapted, and published as her own work entitled Fucking and Punching. Additionally, Mia has displayed that she is very manipulative, especially when she can blackmail others to her benefit; her situation with Hank being the most prominent example.
