Edina's morning ritual is swimming with a dolphin that she has in a tank in her room. They are off to Val-d'Isère that afternoon, so Patsy and she spend the morning at the gym and the office, while we listen to an interview to Edina recorded for Radio 4, Desert Island Discs. Meanwhile, Paolo, Saffy's Italian boyfriend, proposes marriage. Patsy and Edina arrive at the Alps, but it is not what they expected as there are no celebrities and no night clubs that meet their approval. After dinner at a local restaurant, Patsy and Edina are back in the apart-hotel where they have a row regarding how they have always been together in the present life and the previous ones. A flashback shows them as siamese sisters in a 'freaks' circus. In a rage they start destroying the apartment, which they soon after start to enjoy In the morning, with better mood, Edina spends the day skiing, but she gets lost and almost sails off a cliff. She "dreams" going to heaven, but God tells her it is not her time yet. Meanwhile, in London, Mrs Monsoon returns home after spending the day at the airport where she had gone to meet arriving friends. However, she explains she instead got into a plane that didn't take off, she got registered, and her suitcase was blown up. She had met at the airport a woman dressed as an Arab who brings her home: it happens to be Bo. Also appearing: Marcella Detroit (Angel), Marianne Faithfull (God), Tom Hollander (Paolo)
