Trivia: Morocco (Episode # 2.3) was voted the worst episode in the history of AbFab. Though, on a more positive note, I think this may have been the episode which attracted much of the transsexual following, since this is the episode in which we discover that Patsy was once a man. :)

Episode One: Hospital

Patsy has been having it off with a married politician and the press is lapping it all up. Edina & Patsy sit at the kitchen table scrutinizing everything that has been said about her only to find to Patsy’s horror that they have printed her age as being 47, while she still maintains that she is 39. Edina is checked into hospital for foot surgery; Patsy comes along for moral support. Edina who insists on being inundated for her surgery only to find that it was only acupuncture needle being removed which only required a band aid. Meanwhile, Patsy has some facial surgery done so she can look younger to do an exclusive interview for Hello! Unfortunately she develops a terrible reaction to the surgery.

Episode Two: Death

Edina’s father has died and it is time for a reality check so Edina goes into mourning, but only for herself. Mother is looks on the bright side looks forward to the extra space back at home. Marshall pays his respects with new girlfriend, Sondra in tow. Sondra is a therapist who has written a book on grief yet somehow can’t work through it herself. Saffron, while making the funeral arrangements, warns Edina not to go the church or the gravesite. Edina and Patsy arrive at the graveyard drunk, not only falling out of the car but into her father’s grave.

Episode Three: Morocco

Edina has to market Pop Specs which are sunglasses frames with removable lenses. Patsy has organized a fashion shoot, so a trip to Morocco is in order. Saffron wants to come along although only for educational reasons. Patsy points out that this is a work trip though she is looking forward to ‘easy going sex with gorgeous underage youths’. While shopping in Morocco, Patsy sells Saffron into slavery. We discover that Patsy was once a man, and there is also the suggestion that Saffron has had sex while Edina and Patsy were unconscious.

Episode Four: New Best Friend

Edina cancels lunch with Patsy because her minimalist friends – Bettina and Max are coming to stay. Saffron has moved into the Halls of Residence for a break. There is a flashback of Bettina and Max in their early simplistic home. When they arrive with their child, Edina has a fashion crisis because Lacroix and baby spew just don’t go together.

Episode Five: Poor

Edina’s ex-husbands have finally cut her off. Saffron is keeping Edina thinking that she is poorer to hopefully tone-down her unnecessary expenditure. The driver of Edina’s car is cut from the budget so Edina and Patsy have to transport themselves in an Alfa Romeo Spider, which is supposed to be cheaper. Saffron sends Edina and Patsy to the supermarket. Of course they go joyriding all the way to Harrods Food Halls. They end up in courts for many offenses they commit, and Edina does nothing but complain to the judge. She gets off with a charge of community service.

Episode Six: Birth

Patsy becomes a human barbeque, when she nods off with a lit cigarette and burns down Edina’s kitchen. Gran accidentally locks Edina, Patsy and Saffron in the lounge room which leads to discussions about birth and 70’s revival music.

6 x 30mins episodes.
