Edina and Patsy go on holiday to Province in France but the accommodation isn't quite what they were expecting. Edina and Patsy are unable to communicate with anybody and Edina orders Saffy to bring some food over from England. Bubble comes with Saffy and informs Edina that her interior design business is in trouble. When it's time to go home, Edina discovers that they've been staying in a cottage when they should have been staying in the château just down the road.

Edina: (Gasps)
Officer: You're all free to go.
Patsy: I beg your pardon?
Officer: You're free to go. Be a bit more careful next time.
Patsy: But hang on there! I want you to test it! Come back here I paid a, a huge amount of money for that substance, don't tell me it was talcum powder!
