Vagina.

Stay true to yourself!

I'm a laughing stock, Mum. I can't even show my face in my own city, in my own

country. But move.

You remember John, your old manager? He lives in L .A. America?

Hollywood!

I can't wait to find myself.

I can't wait to find myself.

I can't wait to find myself not going away!

What are you in for?

I'm waiting for him to say that.

Visa issue.

Oh, me too.

Yeah, I got my visa a while back when I was originally supposed to take a trip

here. I was sponsored by my old manager, John. He opened up a place in

Hollywood. I have an exceptional talent visa. You?

Same. Oh.

What's yours for?

I eat glass.

Excuse me?

I eat glass and nails, bits of metal, cardboard, etc.

Definitely unique.

Where do you do this?

Corporate events, birthday parties. I also appear on Venice Beach.

Oh, no. No, thanks. I'm trying to watch my figure.

In California.

Mr. Gregori, you're approved.

You're free to re -enter the United States.

Good luck.

Next.

Red line.

Name? Tammen.

Like salmon.

Or plammon.

Or cross -examined.

It's really easy to remember.

Okay. What kind of visa do you have? An exceptional talent visa.

Like the guy who eats nails.

And what is your exceptional talent?

I'm an award -winning actress.

You're an actress?

No,

no, no.

I'm an award -winning actress.

Okay, according to the California Bureau of Labor Statistics, there are 155 ,000

residents in Los Angeles proper alone who claim acting as a career.

Ma 'am, I think you're a little confused.

I'm Australia's sweetheart.

You know, everyone here is from somewhere.

Okay? We have South African's sweetheart.

We got Argentina's sweetheart.

Heck, just the other day, I had Papua New Guinea's sweetheart standing on that

very red line.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but you're not one of a kind. You're just one of

many.

That's it?

That's it.

I am woman, hear me roar.

In numbers too big to ignore.

And I know too much to go back and

pretend.

And when I was 14 years old, I sung that song.

out on the pier in Sydney for my mom to sing to me when we immigrated from South

Africa. And this man, he saw me amongst the crowd, and he plucked me from

obscurity.

And the rest was history.

All I needed was that chance.

Please.

Please give me that chance.

You know, I had a dream once, too.

I also wanted to be a performer.

Oh, yes. A dancer, actually.

I can still feel the ribbon between my fingers as I would lace up my ballet

slippers before class.

Beautiful.

But I was pigeon -toed.

Wasn't meant to be.

Well, yes.

Little known fact.

Pigeons feed their young a special pigeon milk.

A regurgitated milk. That's what they feed their squab.

Young lady, today I would like to be your regurgitated pigeon milk.

Okay.

You've got three months to prove that you've got exceptional talent. You've

to book a job and prove that you're worthy. It won't be easy.

You can cross.

Checked up.

Take it.

There you go.

Oh, oh, man.

Welcome to Hollywood.

I like her.

A rose for a rose. Oh, thank you.

I see big things for your future.

Very, very big.

I think I'm going to like it here.

Okay, time to get this show on the road.

Hi, John. It's me, Tam Tam. You will never guess where I am. Darling, tell me

you're in the States.

I am. I'm right outside your building.

I'm just outside. I came out to get a cup of coffee. You stay where you are. I

will come to you.

Oh, Tam -Tam, you're going to love it here. I've brought dozens of horses

and they're literally taking over. And you, darling, are going to be the

star of them all.

Maybe dreams really do come true.

Oh, I see you.

I see you, John. Oh, wait.

I'll come to you.

I'm going to cross.

Don't let the shiny veneer fool you, darling. It's a shark tank here.

But as long as I've got your back, you'll be just fine.
