Transcript

Kate: Hi! It's me, Kate. Erm, so I'm really happy that you liked my art videos. Ummm, it's my birthday coming up soon and I'm a Virgo, liiiiiike, Mother Theresa, Tolstoy and Goethe. Little known fact! They all won the Nobel Prize. Pretty Cool.

(The screen flashes to a shot of what look like bacteria under a microscope for a second.)

Kate: Have you ever lied to your friends? You have, haven't you?

(Screen flashes to bacteria again.)

Kate: ...Or am I the only one? Little things, like telling someone her bum doesn't look big in skinny trousers. Orrrrr how about telling a friend you're five minutes away when really you haven't left home. That's...a friendly lie, right?

(Screen flashes to bacteria again.)

Kate: What if it's something...bigger than a friendly lie?

(Screen flashes to extreme closeup of some maggots for half a second.)

Kate: A lie so big that every time you open your mouth it multiplies.

(A number of shots showing the bacteria and then a maggot riddled burger in a gutter.)

Kate: And before you know it, you are infested with lies.

(Clearer shot of the burger.)

Kate: My name's not really Kate. Well, I mean, it's what my friends call me, but-I know what you're thinking, but I didn't have it planned out...Or did I? I don't mean to be dishonest to the people I care about, it's just that this lie has been around longer than I've known them. When I first met Charlie she asked me my name...and I said Kate. The problem is, the moment I told Charlie my name was Kate, thats who I've been ever since. She's introduced me to her friends...in fact I'm seeing somebody and...he thinks I'm Kate too...and I really like him.

Notes

  • The reason few people know Kate's "fact" is that it is untrue. Neither Tolstoy nor Goethe won a Nobel Prize. Goethe had been dead for nearly 70 years when the prizes were created.
  • After this video was posted, Charlie posted a comment on her bebo account, saying "Right now I am wondering what the heck is up with 'Kate'." Also, Tariq left Kate a comment saying not to phone him. He would phone her when he was ready.
  • It was eventually revealed in Birthday Surprise that Kate's real name is Genevieve.
