BIBI is pacing up and down. She is dressed to the nines, a startlingly original creation. Fake leopard skin abounds.

BIBI: Ay Lolo, I bumped into George in Sandton as I was on my way to the cellphone shop. My cellphone is giving so much crap! Awuyazi nawe lama Nokia, aish (You know how these things [Nokias] are) … I must just get myself an Ericsson!

Anyway, so I bumped into George and he's got himself a new girlfriend - ithi ngikutshele (let me tell you).

JIMMY: A new girlfriend!

BIBI: I don't know where he picks them up! Fake jewellery, fake nails, fake teeth and the biggest pair of fake boobs I've ever seen!

So, anyway, George asked me if they've granted you bail and how much. As if he was gonna put up the money!

JIMMY: George!

BIBI: Yaz (Gee), some people bayathandu khubukisa (they like to show off), they just like to show off in front of their girlfriends! I'm sure he was just boasting that he knew you!

JIMMY: Ai, man!

BIBI: Bengidinwe (I was so irritated)\ Ai, I was so irritated, my God! So, I left there and next thing I don't even go to that cellphone shop. Next thing ngayafika (I end up at) iGucci, I see this bag that I must just own! Oh Jimmy, it's so beautiful. I wish ungiyaibona, ine snake skin, or … maybe iOstrich, nje the material lenaprints leshing … ngathi icathulo zika Vusi Khumalo (7 wish you could see it, it is made of snake skin, or maybe ostrich, like the material that has prints, like Vusi Khumalo's shoes). You know his shoes? The ones he loves to wear when he goes to the jazz clubs? So anyway, when the cashier said it was five thousand, I just paid for it without thinking twice. Now, Lolo, my darling, my problem, nje, is just the rent. I've got money but I'm a little short!

JIMMY: Exactly how little short are we talking here?

BIBI: Lolo, sthandwa sami, my love, yazi kutough outside now! They want to evict now, and those people be-fridge (furniture people) were there, I don't know. Uyaz?

JIMMY: Bibi! Ufuna? (How much?) How much? How much do you need?
