Secret Diary of a Call Girl is so adept at packing stylish quirk, kink and melodrama into 22 measly minutes -- and this week’s episode delivered on all three counts, with some much-needed catharsis (Ben and Belle finally get it on!) thrown in for good measure.
Here are my highlights from Episode 6:
Best Song of the Episode
Summerbreeze by Emiliana Torrini
Déjà Vu Moment
The fairytale-themed sex party held for the visiting diplomats. We haven’t seen a sex party on this show since the outlandish romp from Season 1.
Most Surreal Scene
Bambi threatening a client by pointing a gun at his crotch. Don’t mess with Bambi. She’ll shoot a John, yo!
The Heroic Deed Award Goes To…
Ben! He drives through the depths of the British countryside to retrieve Bambi and Belle… who are dressed up like Little Red Riding Hood and Rapunzel, respectively.
Best Stephanie-ism
“You know what love is, don’t you Belle? A marketing ploy.”
The Hookup to End All Hookups!
Ben and Belle finally consummate their non-relationship. But will it last?
Saddest Word of the Episode
"Sorry." - Belle to a sleeping Ben the next morning.
Next Week's Teaser
