Episode 10: The Secret


A Saturday afternoon. Devika has just finished posting a Facebook note on "10 Reasons Why the Younger Generation is Doomed and Should Kill Themselves" and sits on the couch with her new copy of "Why the World Sucks" magazine. Artee flips through channels, bored. A re-run of Jersey Shore on MTV, some boring science documentary, cricket highlights, a Poker game show. She switches to Tempo and laughs at the TV screen. "Look at them bitches wining down the place!" she says, "Feel they hot!"

She leans back and yawns. The sun is hot and the air conditioning has broken down. She turns to Devika and shakes her head. "So hot," Devika says. Artee gets an idea.


Artee gets Devika to agree to come with her to the local public pool. Upon arriving, a group of boys shout at them, "Oye! Famalayyy!" And begin suiting. Devika puts her palm over the side of her face. She immediately regrets coming. Artee is also somewhat disappointed as none of the fellas have abs. In fact, the pool is mostly filled with old hairy men. Devika sucks her teeth. Artee changes into her bikini and takes a dip in the pool.

Devika refuses to get in. Instead, she just wonders if anyone she tagged in her note had replied. She suddenly feels anxious to go home and check her notifications.

Then, all of a sudden, everyone rushes out of the pool. An old man in the pool has shat himself.


With a pool contaminated with old man feces and no hot fellas, Artee has no reason to stay. So she and Devika decide to leave. Artee changes back into her shorts. As they walk down the sidewalk, they notice their mother's blue van. And then...


They couldn't believe their eyes! What was going on?! Artee stands akimbo, in shock, her eyes wide and her jaw gaping open. Devika hunches over and covers her eyes. They stand frozen in their tracks, barely able to decipher what was happening before their eyes...
