Hey. Hey, I was just... Checking on
Nyla. I know.

Lee told me.

Sorry you didn't get a piece in the
show. That sucks.

Yeah, it does suck.

But I'll be all right.

My spirit animal is a unicorn.

Looks cute. Has a sharp edge.

Exactly.

So I'm going for sushi.

Anyone want sushi?

Yeah, I could always eat.

Okay, well, see you then.

Yeah, I know.

Staring at it won't change anything.

And neither will staring at that.

Besides, just because she kissed someone
else doesn't mean they're not right for

each other. That is exactly what it
means.

Who are you? Part of your subconscious.

Come on, I need to show you something.

Whoa, my subconscious is active today.

We've grown.

Because you haven't been listening.

Tell Sam about Satori.

And the things she's done.

She doesn't deserve him. You're not
biased, but you and him should still be

There's no way.

Satori trusts me.

Seriously?

a whole routine. Did you not see the pom
-poms? I can't do it. I just can't.

I hate living inside your head.

We're electrically connected.

We're lighting our own way.

We got this all together.

No matter what they say.

We'll weather any storm and we'll ride
it to the end to stay connected.

Oh, good. You're finally up. I need you
to invite people to the show tonight.

People that matter.

Photographers, designers.

I've only had 38 responses to my e -vite
and 37 were maybes.

How long have you been sat there?

Not sure. Couldn't sleep.

I mean, what's the point of getting a
piece into the Athena show if no one's

going to see it?

But why did you just sit there? Why
didn't you wake me up?

Because that would have been rude.

Duh. Were you raised in a barn?

So, are you going to help me or not?

Um, yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, of course. Just give
me a minute to wake up. Okay.

Ideally with you not in the room.

Fine. I've got things to do anyway.

It's fine.

Tonight is a really big night for Nisha.

For everyone.

Bummy.

I can deal. I just want to talk to my
mum for...

Completely unrelated reasons.

Hello? Sigurd?

Hello. What's wrong?

That obvious?

Your left eye crinkles at the side when
you're upset.

I, um... I didn't get anything into the
mid -year show.

Oh, I'm sorry, honey.

I'm okay.

I'm not too gutted. I'm doing my lift.

I stuffed on it last night.

I love that you actually listen to the
things I've taught you.

It helps.

Listing things that are good in my life.

Always has.

Okay, so there's you and Dad, Lena...
Wait, are you going to read the whole

because I've got things I need to do?
Mum!

I'm just teasing.

Go ahead.

You're sure the editor of Macy's is
coming?

No, I'm not sure. She said she tried.

Well, can you make it try harder?

Misha, I've just emailed everyone I
know.

Maximising my exposure is important.

You've been on Fishbowl, by the way.
There are ten of photos of you with that

model guy. Wait, what?

Oh, I'd forgotten about that.

Thought it would boost his profile,
right? Well, it worked.

According to Fishbowl, he is the seventh
hottest model with the sixth hottest

eyes.

And this is actually perfect.

Perfect how?

You help boost his profile. It's the
least he can do to help boost mine.

Ask him to come tonight, please.

Okay, I'll text him. Just for you. He
does owe me.

I'm not going to take stairs.

I hate my life.

I'm sorry. I started with my thing when
you were... I'm fine.

It's just the mid -year show. It's no
big deal.

Except for you.

I'm really excited for you. I just mean
I'm cool.

And you know what I mean, right? I do.

So why do you hate your life?

My mother's coming tonight.

Why? That's what I said.

She hates my work.

Maybe... Maybe what?

Keep going with that thought. I'm very
interested in a silver lining.

Maybe it'll be different this time.

Unlikely.

What else you got?

At least she cares enough to show up.

Yeah.

Weak parental support is better than no
parental support.

I invited all these people for her, but
they don't matter.

Tonight isn't going to be my perfect
night, but I can definitely make it

Are you nervous?

Given that my heart rate is at a speed
not previously known to man, I'm going

go with yes.

You need to stop stressing and start
getting excited.

You make a good point.

I sense the but.

It doesn't feel entirely right to be
that excited. It feels like it's Robin

Niles facing it.

She's not even in the show.

I know, it's just out of everyone she
really deserves to get a piece in. Why?

She's not better than us.

You think she is better than us? No,
it's just... Forget it.

Stress all you like. You can do it on
your own.

The outfit?

No, not that. I look breathtaking.

I don't have this feeling in my stomach.

It's just nerves.

I don't get nervous.

I've always been better than everyone,
so there's never any point.

But what if... Hey, you look great.

Loads of people are coming to see your
design.

Nisha, you've got this.

Tonight is the kind of night you were
made for.

Amy, you look great.

Thank you, you too.

Don't ask.

I already did.

That was my face asking.

I sort of, but not really, said that
Nyla was better than us.

All of us?

As in, in the world?

You basically said that Nyla was the
best person ever.

Accidentally, yeah.

Did you mean it?

Nyla is kinder than the average person.
She's more tenacious as well.

She's smarter than people give her
credit for, and I trust her.

And trust is pretty hard to come by.

That's one hell of a high pedestal
you've got her on.

That's what I think.

Then you shouldn't be with Tori.

I mean, do what you like.

Obviously.

I just think the person you're with
should be the person you obsess over.

You know, you guys ready?

Yeah, let's go.

Oh, come on, I'll introduce you.

Matt, hey!

This reminds me of Jackson Pollock.

You like Jackson Pollock?

I don't know. My agent said it was a
good thing to say exhibition. She didn't

say there'd be follow -up questions.

Pretend I didn't say anything.

This is my friend Nisha, the one I told
you about. Hi, Nisha.

I love your work on the NYK runway show.
Now, let me show you my dress. You have

a substantial following, so I'll need
you to post a lot of photos.

She's here. The one in the designer top.

Man, she looks young.

Botox will do that.

Mum!

Hey, over here.

Do you have to yell like you were raised
on a council estate?

I was raised on a council estate.

A few years doesn't count.

Hi, I'm Melissa.

Lenny, the boyfriend.

You can call me Lenny. You have a
boyfriend?

So it would appear.

Do you know what's crazy?

We have an exhibition. We're just
standing here. We're not even looking at

anything. We should correct this
situation.

Also, did I mention I love you, Tom?

Thank you, Lenny.

And yes, you're right, let's look at
Lee's work.

How much longer in here?

Try not to think about it.

You're mean.

She's meaner.

Well, I guess I can let her out now.

They have to force people to look at
those sorts of things.

They're unhealthily against taking
pretty photographs, like landscapes.

I also like landscapes, but no one ever
gets noticed for landscapes, and what

Lee does is challenging.

But that's what makes it there now.

That's what makes her there now.

I like Lenny.

You sure about that?

Because that means approving of a
decision I've made. Then I approve of a

decision you've made.

He's handsome.

And happy.

I never pictured you with someone happy.

I suppose opposites attract.

And you just ended your compliment with
an insult.

But, um... I'm glad you like him.

To be honest, I was starting to think
you might be a lesbian.

Seriously?

What?

Well, A, no one talks like that anymore.
And B, why does it matter?

And C, not.

This reminds me of Jackson Pollock.

I'm here with Nisha on a date.

It's not clear.

Nyla set it up.

Weren't you dating Nyla? That was just
for show. I'm the seventh hottest model

now. She totally raised my profile. I
think maybe you're confusing Nyla with

some other model, because she wouldn't
do that. She did, though.

I know, because I was there.

I had soup.

Also, the photos were on Fishbowl.

Nellie. So good to see you.

Wish I could say the same.

But you invited us.

I did not.

But we got your text.

So, these are your parents?

Yes.

Right, um, it was me.

I sent the text.

I thought it was what you wanted.

There's a whole lot of thinking going on
and very little asking me.

Mum, Dad, I'm sorry. Nyla made a
mistake.

Nellie's always been embarrassed by us.
That's what it is.

You know, at school she used to make up
stories that she was adopted and her

real parents were Prussian aristocracy.

Can you imagine?

Yeah, I can, actually.

Don't talk about me at school!

Don't talk about me at all!

You can cut that out!

But you told me to post everything. I
know because you said it. I changed my

mind. Just go!

You do!

I don't want you here! I never did!

We're not leaving unless you promise to
phone us tomorrow.

You've moved out of halls.

We've been worried.

I'll phone tomorrow. I will, I promise.
But please, just leave now.

Okay, come on. Let's go.

I can't believe you did that to me. I
can't believe you lied to me.

I'm not crying.

Okay.

If anyone asks, I'll just tell them that
I found you bullying a puppy.

You just sound more like me.

My parents were here.

And I didn't want them here. I didn't
ask them.

And then who did? Nyla.

Up to her.

They're my parents.

It was horrible.

Like she wanted me to look bad.

Look at this.

That girl Matt posted it.

The one that Nyla invited.

Hey, you thought you were doing the
right thing.

Nyla, why'd you do it?

Why'd you get Nisha's parents here?
She's out there crying her eyes out. She

trying to do something kind.

And if Nisha had just been honest... So
you're a fan of honesty?

I thought you were genuine. I thought
you were the most genuine person I'd

met. But you're not.

You lie just like everyone else.

When did I lie? The thing with Matt.

You get a fake boyfriend, so you smile
for the cameras and you make it all out

like it's true.

I'm sorry. I just didn't think you were
like that.

I'm not.

And even if I was, you don't get to
judge me.

You're not perfect. Your relationship
isn't perfect.

It would be if you didn't keep getting
in the way. It's got nothing to do with

me. It would be perfect if the Tory
hadn't kissed someone else.

Maybe we should just time out this whole
situation.

It's true, isn't it?

I'm sorry.

You know, it's better than being sorry
and not cheating on me.

Like, it's really easy. You should try
it sometime. You just don't attach your

lips to anybody else's.

Who else knew?

Guess that's my answer, then.

I trusted you.

I'm...

So Lenny knows?

I said I was going to tell him.

And you're still together?

Yeah.

For now.

What does that even mean?

I don't know what it means.

I'm not sure about anything.

About Lenny.

About you.

Well, I am sure.

See, I love Sam.

I've loved him for as long as I can
remember.

But you...

You're just some girl I kissed.

It's okay.

I'll work.

I can't fix what's happened, but I can
finish these.

I never finish these.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm okay.

You just can't do this, Leah.

Come and see me tomorrow morning.

My office, 9am.

Are you really not going to tell me what
happened?

Then I'll tell you something.

My real name is Nellie. I grew up in a
small town outside Peterborough.

My dad is an accountant and my mum works
part -time in an old people's home.

Nellie.

I like the song, like Nellie the
Elephant.

Don't even think about it. I've had
enough people singing that song for the

last, I mean, ten lifetimes.

I promise that song will never pass my
lips.

So you spent all your money trying to
live up to that whole Prussian

thing? I didn't want to be Nelly from
Peterborough.

I don't think many people really bought
that whole story anyway.

So all my rent went on designer clothes
for nothing?

Oh, I've been an idiot.

Same.

I got back together with a girl who
cheated on me.

Only to have her cheat on me again.

You know, the whole time I was growing
up, I had to deal with my dad's lies and

the damage that it caused.

And I swore that when I grew up, I was
going to surround myself with people

I could trust.

And it turns out I'm not really very
good at that.

The toy cheated on you.

You didn't know.

Weird, you know.

You lie a lot.

But you're the only one that didn't lie
to me.

Yeah. I wasn't convinced the sun was
going to come up this morning either.

Thanks for waiting.

You all right?

Listen, I'm really sorry about last
night. This isn't just about last night.

Okay. This is about how things are going
overall.

Oh. You see...

I took a risk on you, Nyla.

And you showed a lot of promise when you
started.

But those moments of brilliance are just
that.

Moments.

There's the failed photography
assignment, the disqualification from

carpet contest, getting kicked out of
class, not getting anything into the mid

-year show, and then destroying your
work last night.

I mean, it all points in one direction.

Sadly the Athena just isn't right for
you.

You won't be coming back next time.

You're no longer a student here.

Yeah, it really helps.

Listing things that are good in my life.
Always have.

There's Lexi and Miju, obviously.

And I've made some really good friends
at college.

There's Lee.

She's basically my favourite person.

And Sam.

It feels like I've known him forever.

And then there's Nisha.

She's pretty self -involved, but she's
definitely not boring.

And Satori.

It's taken some time, but we're friends
now.

And then there's college itself.

No matter how hard things get, I love
it.

I feel at home there, like it's where
I'm meant to be.

Don't.
