Hi. Hi.

Oh.

Um, are you okay?

You seem a bit flustered.

Yeah, uh, no. Uh...

I just need to see Gran

off to the airport.

My mother's looking after Lola tonight.

Should I

meet your mother?

No.

Okay.

Sorry.

It's fine.

Can I kiss you properly now?

I've been thinking about it all day.

Sorry.

Oh, my God.

I can't believe that face

came from the womb of the little dumpster.

Excuse me?

Tonight, Lola,

you are my

perfect accessory.

Oh, she won't need much, darling.

If raw material was the finished article,

there'd be no point of me.

I'm going to straighten and shimmer.

Ow! Ow!

Go for it.

Just take the pain, b*tch.

Your hair will straighten.

Ow!

Beyonc cried, too, but she surrendered.

Ow!

Don't stop.

There's something in the suitcase?

Where am I?

Oh, Gran!

What's she doing?

I'm off to Cannes, dear.

She's going

to Aunt Violet's

birthday party.

Why don't I know about this?

We didn't want you to know, dear.

It's going to be very sprauncy.

Oh!

No, no, leave it!

It's Pats. Patsy.

Hi, darling.

Got some threads for the midget.

Leave them there.

Oh, I smell pigs, Eddy.

I smell rozzers.

Oh, just a thought.

Will I need

injections, Saffy?

Yeah, lethal ones.

Bonjour.

You just met my mother.

She seems nice.

Look up.

Okay, I'm looking up.

Patsy's here.

Ugh.

Darling, it's pretty exciting, isn't it?

Tonight is going to change everything.

Oh, my God, what's happening?

No, Eddy.

What?

I'm going to...

Don't tell him, Eddy.

Tell him, Eddy.

I'm gonna get Kate Moss!

I'm her new P. R.!

Go on, go to Patsy.

We all love you.

We love you.

We love you.

We thought we'd go to Goa

for an Ayurvedic colonic.

It's totes amaze.

So beautiful.

Edina has to come.

She has to.

Or we could go out.

There's that new club, FoFo BoBo.

Who's D.J.-ing?

Dead Mice.

I love Dead Mice.

Oh, Edina, you have to come.

Stella will give you

all the clothes you need.

I would love to dress you.

Oh, Eddy...

you're my favorite person

in the whole world.

You have to do my P. R.

Please, you have to.

Please?

Okay, okay.

Eddy! Eddy! Eddy!

What are those?

I'm not wearing them!

Pats! Will you just let her

wear what she wants?

Can I do Kate's hair?

I'd love to give her ends a good tonging.

Yes.

She's going to love you, Lola.

Why?

'Cause you have what we all want.

Eddy, look.

Youth patch.

Absorb, absorb.

Now, listen.

You're coming

as my daughter,

so all you do...

I'm not going to be man bait.

You should be so lucky.

What are you doing?

I'm going. I want to go.

Kate Moss will be there and Eddy said...

What?

Are you sexing

that little rodent downstairs,

darling?

You know what?

Fine. F*** it.

Sorry. F***. F***!
