Has nothing to do with French writer Émile Zola. Or the Zoras from ''Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda'', who were originally called "Zolas".

* AmbiguousDisorder: Derrek mood-swings on a dime, is overly trusting, throws tantrums frequently, and generally isn't very bright. He also repeats the line "I'm going to make films like that" several times over (partially as a defense mechanism or to try and connect to people who clearly aren't interested), and is heavily implied to watch the same Vines over and over, which are autistic traits. The actual person. Jarrett, was very obviously bipolar, which Zola picked up on.

Struggling Detroit waitress Aziah “Zola” King (Taylour Paige) meets and befriends a woman named Stefani (Creator/RileyKeough), the two women bonding over shared experiences with pole dancing. Stefani later invites Zola to Florida to make money at strip clubs, joined by Stefani’s boyfriend Derrek (Creator/NicholasBraun) and her “roommate” X (Creator/ColmanDomingo). What follows is a weekend filled with sex, lies, and violence.

* PredatoryProstitute: Stefani is an extremely racist LowerClassLout and a stripper who only reveals to Zola that she's ''also'' a sex worker after convincing Zola to come to Florida. She then gets Zola trapped with X, her violent pimp, nearly gets Zola sold into sex slavery, and then tries to pretend that it was all a big misunderstanding when they finally escape. And, on top of all this, her boyfriend Derrek reveals that she's done this to other women ''before''.

** Mixed with AdaptationalJerkass: Jarrett in the original thread carried on a long, interesting conversation with Zola despite his bipolar swings, and it turned out to be one of the only high points of Zola's trip to hell. Derrek is a whiny, melodramatic idiot who is slavishly devoted to Stefani despite her constant exploitation of him, whose only bright spot of intelligence is keying Zola into the fact ''Stefani has deceived several other strippers in the exact same way before'', though he also clearly does care about Stefani and is stuck in the trap of thinking that if he tries hard enough, he'll finally get her to give up that life.

* AmbiguousSituation: Is Stefani's heartfelt plea to Zola that convinces Zola to stay genuine?
Added DiffLines:
* UncleTomfoolery: Invoked in Stefani's version of events, which depicts Zola as a cackling, loud, jokey animal who butts into our sweet white heroine's business and gets her all mixed up with urban crime. (None of it is true.)
