In the pharmacy (after getting advice from Grace on the phone) Lola is too self-aware and humiliated to buy tampons and tries to hint to the chemist behind the desk what she wants. The chemist looks at the late twenty something/early thirtysomething woman in front of her, asks if it is Lola's first time and at Lola's vigorous nodding produces... a pregnancy test. Things don't go any better when she eventually gets tampons and towels and tries them on in their bathroom with Grace advising behind a door.

''Lalola'' is an Argentinian GenderBender comedy-romance {{Telenovela}} first broadcast in 2007-2008 and starring Carla Peterson, Luciano Castro and Muriel Santa Ana.
Ramiro "Lalo" Padilla is a charming and handsome magazine director for the media company "High Five", in charge of editing their successful magazine ''Don''. Lalo is also a [[HandsomeLech shameless womaniser]] and one of his jilted lovers decides to get revenge by recruiting a witch to [[KarmicTransformation magically turn him into a woman.]]
Lalo goes to bed himself one night and wakes up to following morning to discover he is now a beautiful woman. With only his female best friend radio host Grace (herself with a unrequited crush on Lalo) to help 'Lola', as the new woman calls herself has to deal with being a woman, pretending to be her own cousin, explaining away the disappearance of 'Lalo' and last but not least dealing with her complicated feelings with her handsome and good natured co-worker Facundo...
The series was commercially and critically successful and inspired remakes in Belgium, Chile, Greece, India, Indonesia, Peru, Philippines, Portugal, Russia, Spain, Turkey and Vietnam. A pilot for an American English-language remake was made in 2009 which would have starred Rhea Seehorn and James Van Der Beek but it was never picked up.

!!''Lalola'' contains examples of:
* AttractiveBentGender: 'Lalo' is a handsome man with much female attention and as the beautiful 'Lola' she attracts several men.
* ChainedToABed: Lola hires a prostitute to come to {{Jerkass}} Gaston's house and handcuff him to the bed, making him late for an important meeting. The prostitute then puts lipstick on him, writes "SOY UN CAPULLO" (loosely, "I'm a bastard") on his chest in lipstick and takes pictures, which Lola hangs up around the office. It's fantastic.
* CharacterTitle: The title is a combination of the nicknames of the main character: 'Lalo' and 'Lola'.
* FirstLawOfGenderBending: Lola and Grace track down the witch who turned him into a woman, and she agrees to turn him back (after laughing for a while). They hold hands, she starts her mystic chanting... and promptly falls backward, dead.
* GenderBender: The plot follows the formerly male Lola as she struggles with being suddenly turned into a woman.

''Lalola'' is an Argentinian GenderBender comedy-romance {{Telenovela}} first broadcast in 2007-2008 and starring Carla Peterson, Luciano Castro and Muriel Santa Ana.
Ramiro "Lalo" Padilla is a charming and handsome magazine director for the media company "High Five", in charge of editing their successful magazine ''Don''. Lalo is also a [[HandsomeLech shameless womaniser]] and one of his jilted lovers decides to get revenge by recruiting a witch to [[KarmicTransformation magically turn him into a woman.]]
Lalo goes to bed himself one night and wakes up to following morning to discover he is now a beautiful woman. With only his female best friend radio host Grace (herself with a unrequited crush on Lalo) to help 'Lola', as the new woman calls herself has to deal with being a woman, pretending to be her own cousin, explaining away the disappearance of 'Lalo' and last but not least dealing with her complicated feelings with her handsome and good natured co-worker Facundo...
The series was commercially and critically successful and inspired remakes in Belgium, Chile, Greece, India, Indonesia, Peru, Philippines, Portugal, Russia, Spain, Turkey and Vietnam. A pilot for an American English-language remake was made in 2009 which would have starred Rhea Seehorn and James Van Der Beek but it was never picked up.

!!''Lalola'' contains examples of:
* AttractiveBentGender: 'Lalo' is a handsome man with much female attention and as the beautiful 'Lola' she attracts several men.
* ChainedToABed: Lola hires a prostitute to come to {{Jerkass}} Gaston's house and handcuff him to the bed, making him late for an important meeting. The prostitute then puts lipstick on him, writes "SOY UN CAPULLO" (loosely, "I'm a bastard") on his chest in lipstick and takes pictures, which Lola hangs up around the office. It's fantastic.
