Bad Girls Recaps: Episode 3.13 "Revolving Doors"

But Gina's niceness turns nasty: She says she knows Di was lying about hooking up with Josh.

Gina: Sad, really. Still, we can't all have pulling power, can we?

I never know quite what to make of Gina. She's horrible, generally, but she's often right about people. And there's something strangely sexy about her. She sorta looks like an evil-universe version of Betty Boop.

On that note, Gina leaves — and leaves Di alone with everyone's lockers. That can only be bad.

Back at the police station — The cops tell each Julie that the other Julie has "turned Queen's evidence," which sounds much nicer (or much more fabulous) than turning State's evidence. The Julies immediately being screaming at each other through the thin walls. I wish they'd make up and make out already.

Mealtime — Shaz is sporting some fresh bruises. Yvonne, who is sporting all black, wants the full story. Crystal explains the situation and says Shaz should report Al, but Yvonne says that's the best way for Shaz to get herself killed.

Shaz: What am I gonna do? I can't take much more of this.
Yvonne: [watching the Peckham Boot Gang giggle nearby] Don't let them see you like that.
Shaz: What's it matter? They already know I'm brickin' it. I can't sort it on me own, Yvonne. You're the only one they're scared of.

Yvonne considers this, no doubt fully aware of her ability to inspire terror.

Catfight — As they are escorted from their respective interview rooms, the Julies scream at each other like banshees. It's supposed to be funny, but it's kind of sad.

The wing office — Hollamby inquires about Di's mother. Di freezes, so Fenner comes to the rescue.

Fenner: She fell out of bed. Bruised herself quite badly. It was lucky I was there when it happened.

Aren't you everywhere evil is, Fenner? Sorta like Dick Cheney? I think there's some kind of magical conduit, like the fireplaces in the Potterverse. Devils like Fenner probably travel via elevator music pipelines.

Di says Fenner was really helpful, and adds that she's decided to get her mother full-time care. That'll be loads better than no-time care.

Karen arrives and immediately starts flirting with Jim. Apparently they are now cohabitating. It's like this show is Di and my eyes and ears are Di's mother.

Home sweet Larkhall — The Julies are back, still screeching at each other. Josh looks on and shakes his head like he's in a wacky sitcom scene.

Somewhere we haven't seen — Or at least I don't remember seeing this; it's some sort of staff cafeteria. Is it the officers' club — the place Helen met Dominic that one time? I'm sure I was too busy staring at the tipsy Scot.

Di and Sylvia eavesdrop on Gina and Marc, who are having a deep conversation about whether to "get take away and watch a video." Gina thinks she'd better go to aerobics so she doesn't end up with "handles for hips."

Hollamby: She doesn't know when she's well off. My Bobby's idea of a romantic gesture is to take his socks off before he gets into bed.

Snicker. Ah, Bodybag, you old coot.

Di immediately starts slamming Gina, suggesting that Gina's not going to aerobics but to see "another fella." Bodybag's happy to join in the slagging off.
