Oh No! B.O! Ask Lara

TANNOY: 'Flight 3153 ready for departure.'

SIGHS

Come on, pull harder! We can beat them.

Oh!

Hmph. Tony, what are you doing?

Pulling you.

It's more effective.

Keep your hands to yourself and pull the rope.

Come on! They're going to beat us.

THEY GROAN

We did it!

Urgh, I'm a bit sweaty, though. I'm going to need a shower.

Who cares? We are the champions.

We are the champions!

ALL CHEER

TEACHER SPEAKS IN SPANISH

Hey.

Do you want to do anything tonight?

How about that space film that's just come out?

Oh, yeah. Everyone says it's amazing.

Do you want to come?

Tony, Gabriel,

if what you're talking about is so important, why don't you share it

with the rest of the class?

CLASSMATES GIGGLE

I was just asking Gabriel a question about irregular verbs.

Well, next time, please ask me.

Now, the infinitive of the verb to smell.

And the third person?

Oooh! Eurgh.

Oh, no! BO. Have you taken your trainers off, Monica?

Please, it's not me!

Ew.

I hope it's not me. I did have a shower after gym today.

First question. After sport, or when you sweat a lot, what do you do?

A - I don't do anything. Sweat's not an issue.

B - I freshen up with a wash and some deodorant as soon as I can.

Or, C - I go home straight away. Sweat is so embarrassing.

This has never happened to me before. Ever!

Or me - going to the cinema with three girls.

It was so embarrassing. You should have seen the look

on Lara and Monica's faces when I put my hand up.

They looked like they'd just opened a bag of rubbish.

Chill out. Girls are hypersensitive.

I'd love to see the look on their faces

if they went in the boys' changing rooms.

It smells like the monkey cage at the zoo.

You're right, they're just being soft.

HE GAGS

It's like I can smell that changing room smell

just by thinking about it.

Um, Tony, I think it's me.

Look, I'm not being funny, but maybe the girls are right.

It's not like a cage of monkeys,

it's like a carriage on the Underground...

at rush hour...on the hottest day in summer!

Congratulations!

Congratulations? Why?

It's disgusting.

Congratulations cos this means you're a real man.

When you grow up, you start to smell.

I'd give anything to have a manly whiff like that.

Even today when we're going to the cinema with the girls?

Hmm...no. Maybe not today.

So, what should I do?

Well, you better do something or you're going to seriously

cramp our style with the girls.

HE COUGHS Eurgh!

I need some smelly stuff.

Air freshener.

HE SNIFFS

It smells OK. Great.

Clean, fresh-smelling arm pits forever.

Arrrgh!

Hmm.

HE SNIFFS

That should do the trick.

MOVIE SOUNDTRACK IN SPANISH

-Did he just say melon?

-No, limon.

-Are you enjoying the film?

-Shh, Tony!

I'd enjoy it more if I could actually hear it.

What's happening in the film?

Aren't you watching it?

I'm not really getting it.

What are you three up to? Akira won't even talk to me.

What do you mean? We're watching the film.

I mean, apart from that.

We're at the cinema, not church.

SHE SLURPS

Ow!

-TONY GIGGLES

-Right, take this, Tony!

LARA LAUGHS

Shh!

Watch the film! They'll throw us out.

TONY LAUGHS

GABRIEL SIGHS

Where's the popcorn?

Monica's got it.

Did you really think you could get rid of me that easily?

Bwah-ha-ha-haa!

Look at the face your little friend is pulling.

Ha-ha-haa!

Don't tell me you're scared of the film?

Bwah-ha-ha-haa!

The best bit was when Cromlock sets out from the planet Reiki

and attacks the ship. That was amazing.

That was the only bit that you actually saw.

The rest of the time you weren't even looking at the screen.

I'm sorry, I couldn't understand it

and I thought that I could ask the smartest girl in the room

to translate.

-He-he.

-Aww.

You're such a clown.

Did you like the film, Gabriel?

Erm, yeah, it was fine.

No, great. Yeah, it was great.

Why did you shout out all of a sudden?

It's just I... I caught my arm on the...

I just caught my arm on something.

Bwah-ha-ha-haa!

Shall we go to the cafe on the way back?

-Are you up for that, Gabriel?

-Yeah.

Great. What about you guys?

No! Er...I mean, I can't.

I forgot, I'm sorry, I've got to go...walk the dog.

Right now. Sorry. Bye.

Er...I've just realised I have to...wash my hair tonight.

Sorry. See you.

What about you, Akira?

Sorry...I've got to go and...help Monica wash her hair.

Wait for me, Monica!

They couldn't wait to leave

and it's all because of me.

Don't be daft, they just have other things to do.

Girls washing their hair is a very serious business.

Thanks for trying to make me feel better,

but I know it's me. I smell horrible, Tony.

Look, everyone's staring at me.

Well, I'd stare too, if someone was drinking as weirdly as you.

Will you please just drink normally?

No, the BO will get out.

Second question. You're suffering from a bout of BO. What do you do?

A - BO? What BO?

My wild scent is better than any perfume.

B - I keep myself and my clothes clean

and put on some deodorant if I need to. Or, C -

I walk around with my arms pressed to my sides

to make sure the smell doesn't get out.

I think the solution has just walked into the room.

Hey, Max, we need some advice from a man of the world.

The you're talking to the right person.

What's the problem, Kiddiewinks?

Oh, I'm fine. Gabriel has BO though and he doesn't know what to do.

Is that all?

I thought you were going to ask me something really difficult like,

which gives the best shave, gel or foam?

This IS really difficult, Max.

The girls don't want to know me anymore. Can you help?

Course, come with me.

Soon, your masculine aroma will be driving the ladies wild.

Hey, babe.

You see. My scent drives them crazy.

BOTH: Wo-o-o-o-ow!

Deodorant, cologne,

hair gel, deodorant for my feet,

and this stuff to make my breath smell nice.

I think I've got everything I need to fight BO.

At least this lot should be an improvement on air freshener.

Wow, check out what it says on the cologne.

"The scent of the successful man." Can I try some on?

Yeah, go ahead. And now, let the battle commence.

Please...don't do it, don't do it!

No-o-o-o-o-o-o!

Your clean shirt.

You sure you haven't put on too much?

Better safe than sorry.

Now we really do look like successful men.

Hey, Gabriel. What's that smell?

THEY GAG

It's not you, you smell lovely.

It's Tony. How many bottles of aftershave are you wearing?

Phew.

GIRLS GIGGLE

You see, just like Max said. They pretend not to like it,

but it drives them crazy.

Third question. What do you think about BO?

A - it's only a problem for other people.

I smell like an angel.

B - I don't mind if I smell a bit,

but I would worry if everyone around me starts fainting.

Or, C - it's totally embarrassing and I do everything I can to avoid it.

If you answered mostly A, you could be better prepared

and give your friends a breathe of fresh air.

If you answered mostly B, sounds like you're always going to

come up smelling like roses.

If you answered mostly C, your scent is knockout!

Phew! Too much perfume can be worse than none at all.

Tony, I'm talking to you!

How did you know I was here?

I could smell you!

LARA LAUGHS
