The thing about skins that I love is that they keep all of these little hidden jems like this beauty, so people can have things to watch far after the show has ended.
Maybe the lemonade was Effy's selfishness. She always stayed in this little bottle of selfishness.After Tony was hit by the bus, he became slower than he used to be. And no one really paid attention to him while he struggled, so Effy had to give up her "lemonade" and take care of him.
I think effy is the brother in the story and tony is the sister cause Tony was the only person who ever really understood her. like in the part where shes saying that the girl had really good eye sight and could see the boy really well even through all the grass. I think the grass is all of effys walls of drugs, clothes and dgaf attitude and tony was the only person who ever saw past her walls. also tony and effys parents never paid attention to effy, they focused on tony so yeah...jus thoughts
Okay I get it that she is the brother and Tony is the sister and when talking about the parents dying, she's talking about their marriage dying and eating grass means doing drugs. And the monologue is about her wishing Tony would help and stay with her. But what exactly does the lemonade stand for?
When you binge watch the entire first season (in which Effy is a mute) and then watch this bit on the extras like I did, it adds a whole new dimension to this
