Every time we shave our legs, every time we squeeze our feet into heels, or are embarrassed to buy tampons, that bad feminist shame persists. On the anniversary of her mother's death, Fleabag and Claire return to their family home for the annual memorial lunch. He tells her he’s done for good this time and to not show up at his door with nothing but underwear on because that won’t work this time. We then get a gorgeous closing shot of Fleabag taking a statue out of her pants, the one worth “thousands” that she apparently just stole from her godmother, undoing her jacket, and sinking into herself in the cab before shooting the audience a playful and knowing look. a list of 16 images Was this review helpful to you? To make matters worse, Fleabag is so hot that she attempts to take her sweater off, revealing a black lacy bra underneath. Not able to leave it at that, she proceeds to explain how she died through “accidentally” killing herself. Contains strong language and some sexual content. We cut to Fleabag sipping coffee, looking directly at the camera and asking, “Do I have a massive asshole?” In the next scene, we see Fleabag on the bus catch the eye of a man on the other side, who at first glance is decently attractive, but when he puts the newspaper he’s reading down, has horrendous teeth and an awkward, grating demeanor. Fleabag glances at us with a side smile and reassures, “it will.” Cut back to Fleabag talking to bus man, and her surprisingly thoughtful words do not match her face or tone of voice, both of which indicate that she’s making a joke about his failings when instead she’s praising all of the ways that he’s an outwardly perfect, affectionate partner who her family loves.

Ah Fleabag. At first, it’s not apparent that it’s her father, since Claire just told Fleabag to not get drunk and shout into Harry’s letterbox again, which is exactly what we find her doing. After being refused a bank loan she meets - and argues yet again - with sister Claire at a feminist lecture before visiting estranged Dad and Godmother - whom he married with indecent haste on widowhood and not Fleabag's favourite person - helping a drunk woman and pleasuring herself in a taxi after the bus rodent has failed to fulfil his promise.

Their enforced silence is interrupted by an unusual neighbouring weekend workshop Fleabag attempts to rekindle romantic fires to distract her from the mayhem of her life. The next scene opens with Fleabag covered in sweat, panting in a small office, in the middle of an interview for a small business loan. She tells us she notices this, “but you’re drunk, and he made the effort to come all the way over here, so you let him”, followed by a pained expression and the observation that “he’s thrilled.” This captures so much about women who have sex with men’s sexual experiences: putting ourselves in uncomfortable or outright painful situations because the man we’re with wants it.
