Season 2 Ep 5: A Damn Fine Woman
Axl, Zeb and
Gaia stumble in, drunk, returning home from a Pimps ‘n’ Ho’s party.Gaia is dressed as a pimp, while Axl and Zeb
are her ho’s, in dresses.After putting
Gaia to bed, Axl retreats to his room, where he falls asleep still wearing the
dress, which proves to be something of a tactical error because...
The next morning
‘Axl’ awakes to find that ‘he’ is still wearing the dress, but some kind of
Godly transformation has taken place and ‘he’ is now a she: a tall, blonde,
very attractive woman.

While ‘Axl’
freaks, Zeb is very impressed by both the display of Godly power and also the
hotness of the woman Axl has become. When the hungover Gaia encounters the new
Axl she is told that this is Mia, a woman Axl met at the party last night – and
that Axl isn’t here right now. Gaia puts
Mia into that basket with all the other women Axl has brought home in the past.
‘Axl’ seeks help
from Mike and Olaf regarding his gender-change problem, and learns that when
Odin changes teams and becomes a woman it is usually for the purpose of
spying.But neither Mike nor Olaf are clear
on what it is that ‘Axl’ needs to spy upon so, against Mike’s better wishes,
‘Axl’ and Olaf head off to seek better advice from the one person who they
assume knows about the whole changing thing: Mum.
Along the way,
however, a stop-off at Anders’ apartment for more suitable women’s clothing
leads to ‘Axl’ discovering that Dawn (who is living there while Anders is away)
is gathering evidence that Ty killed Eva. Is this the thing Axl was meant to be spying on?Axl certainly thinks so as he goes to tell Ty
this news. Ty is wounded, but
philosophical, revealing to ‘Axl’ that Colin also suspects Ty. So ‘Axl’ and Olaf take another detour, this
time so ‘Axl’ can tell Colin to lay off the idea that Ty is a killer. Even
though Colin pays lip-service to Odin’s commands, you’d have to suspect the
message hasn’t entirely got through.
When Agnetha’s
take on the new ‘Axl’ turns out to be even more discouraging than anything that
has gone before, ‘Axl’ returns to his flat in search of beer, but instead encounters
Gaia, who is keen for a girly chat with the woman she knows as Mia. And it is in this way that ‘Axl’ starts to
learn the truth about how Gaia truly feels about the real Axl – and it is not
music to her/his ears.It is, however,
much less disturbing than Zeb’s idea that maybe Mia can help him lose his
virginity.
Ty, meanwhile,
is not having a great time of it, with the whole Dawn thing and the fact that
Ingrid seems to have installed herself at his house.He takes his Dawn concerns to Agnetha who
attempts to divert Dawn by packing her off overseas for the holiday of a
lifetime. But Dawn isn’t going anywhere, and sees Agnetha with Ty. Her suspicions grow.
‘Axl’,
meanwhile, is thoroughly depressed that Gaia sees him as a philandering
douchebag, so Mike tries to cheer him up with the present of Michele, to teach
him what a woman needs. At least this succeeds in turning Axl back into a guy,
but he is still left with the sinking feeling that the Gaia boat has sailed, as
far as he is concerned.
