One of the Boys | |
| Spinout / int_5c98d100 | comment |
One of the Boys: Les is the only girl in Mike's band, dresses very boyishly (initially she looks like she's cosplaying as one of The Beatles) and imitates their rough behavior to a certain extent. She still would prefer that her bandmates remembered that she's a girl and resents it whenever they call her "fella". | |
