Why not? We have to know what she's up against. The challenge from the friend, whilst setting up why she's there, is like a precursor to the main event. Arguably the inciting incident is whatever appears that stops her from being able to leave. So we have to know what she's dealing with.
So she's a teenage girl. Are we talking 13 or 19? Big difference! What's her defining characteristic?
What makes this plot different? As it currently stands, there is no hook. What is unique about this idea. That should be front and centre.
Hope this helps.
