[0:15]This is the story of two girls who share a flat in London. They have a visitor from Argentina who speaks only a little English. What the girls don't know, but Nick does, is that Hector is very, very rich. Does Hector like Bridget? Does Bridget like Hector? And who does Nick like? Stand by for Extra.

[1:12]Job... stuntman. Age... 20, 20? No. 30, more mature. Age... 30.

[1:31]Where's the fire? It's the smoke detector. I know that! Where's the broom?

[1:45]Oh, good, it's stopped. I think this was the problem. Anyone for very hard-boiled eggs? Nick. Eh? Are they your eggs? Eh? I thought so! What on earth are you doing? Are you crazy?

[2:10]Ah. Are my eggs ready? Oh... Your eggs, Hector. Hector's eggs, Bridget. Is he crazy? Hector...the eggs are, erm, ruined. Perhaps some cornflakes Instead? Thank you, Bridget. Hm. Perhaps some cornflakes Instead? What are you doing on our computer anyway? Nothing. Let's just say, girls, one day you will say, "Brad Pitt... Urgh! Pah! "Johnny Depp... Urgh! Pah! Nick from next door... Vroom-vroom-vroom! "The coolest stuntman in the world." Oh, you a stuntman! Yep. I got the job on the Internet. Well, nearly. I'm waiting for confirmation. Oh, how exciting! The coolest stuntman in the world. On a moped, right? On a Harley-Davidson, actually. Films! Those stars! That money! Oh! Oh! Have you seen Carina's dress in the magazine? I'd love to have a dress like that.

[3:55]Mm, me too. It would really suit me.

[4:10]How much is it? Oh, let's see. Erm... How much? Oh, I'm a student. It's too expensive for me. I've got a job and it's too expensive for me. We need more money.

[4:32]Money? Bridget, Annie, I have something to tell you. Hector, don't. It's a secret. The Romero family, one of the richest families in Argentina. Keep it a secret. Shh. Eh? Shh.

[4:55]What's a secret? You have been very kind. Yes, Hector. I'm sure Bridget and Annie have a little money. Shh, Nick. So I want to... I want to give you some money. Yes? So, I am going to look for a job. Oh... That's a great idea, Hector. Great! Yeah, we can look for a job on the 'Internet, can't we? OK, here we are. Job vacancies. Well, let's see.

[5:43]Oh. Well, there's a job in a launderette. Hector!

[5:51]No.

[5:58]My plant! No. Erm, here's a job as a cook. No. Wait a minute. Look at this. A waiter! What a great Idea! Yes! Ooh, I love good-looking waiters! Did you say good-looking? Here I am. What about Hector as a waiter? A waiter? Yeah. You know.

[6:43]Oh, but I don't know how. Oh, don't worry. I will teach you.

[6:57]Hello. Howard! How are you? Oh, thank you, Howard.

[7:20]Seven o'clock at the Singing Parrot Café. OK, Howard. Bye, Howard. That was Howard. No! He's invited me to dinner tonight because he wants to... talk to me about a new job! Who is Howard? Bridget's boss. He is so rich, he's so clever and he wants to see me! He might offer me a promotion. What shall I wear? I have nothing to wear!

[8:06]No! Wrong! Huh! So last season. Bet Howard can't ride a motorbike. Nope. I hope he does give Bridget promotion. Although I have heard Howard has a nickname. What was I thinking? What? The Octopus. The Octopus? Oh, The Octopus! Ugh! Is he meeting her alone? Yes. No, no! Bridget needs help. We must stop her.

[9:03]I have an idea. Why don't you eat here? No! Yes, then we can both talk to your boss about your new job. Here? No. No way. I could cook for you. Huh! Definitely not, no. And I could be your waiter. N... I want to be your waiter.

[9:40]Yeah, OK, then, but be serious. Don't worry, we will help you get your promotion. Leave it to us.

[10:04]Nadia - Hector wants a job ... I am going... to look for a job. ... but it's difficult. What can he do?

[10:17]He can't work in a launderette. He can't work as a gardener. My plant! Hmm. He can't work as a cook. But then we saw the job for Hector... ... a waiter! A waiter? Yeah. You know. And Bridget's boss, Howard, wants to take her out for dinner tonight. I wonder why?

[15:02]His nickname is 'The Octopus'. The Octopus! Ugh! Anyway - Hector and I will prepare and serve a good dinner this evening. We will help you get your promotion.

[16:15]Good evening, Howard. Ah, Bridget, my princess! Please come in. Bridget, you look divine. Oh, this must be Annie. Are you sisters? Such beauty! The dresses are exquisite. Oh... Thank you. Don't thank me. It's a privilege. Oh, and this, of course, is Nick. Hi. And this is Hector. He's from Argentina. Hello. Argentina? Do you have a cow? Two million. My parents own two million cows. Er, yes, thank you, Hector. Hector's English is a little... Weird. Never mind, Hector. So, Bridget... What a beautiful apartment for a beautiful lady. So, Bridget, you would like a better job?

[18:57]Well, Howard, I... Are you willing to work harder, huh? Agh! You stupid idiot! Sorry, er...

[20:32]Don't you dare talk to my friend Hector like that! Oh, what is he? Is your boyfriend or something? He is... a kind and clever and lovely man, which is something that you will never, ever be. So you can keep your job, you creep! And we'll send you back the dresses. What dresses? Oh, these dresses, the ones you bought Annie and me. I did not buy those dresses. I would not spend money on you! Ha! Goodbye, Howard. You've lost your job. Well, too late. I quit!
