A short king, a comedy boy who looks like Rachel Maddow and now… a furry school mascot. No can say The Sex Lives of College Girls’ Bela doesn’t have diverse taste in sexual conquests!

During this Thursday’s episode of the Max comedy, the sophomore found herself attracted to Essex College’s costumed mascot, Franklin the Fox. And when we say costumed, we mean it: She asked him to keep the getup on — giant headwear, fluffy paws and all — while they had sex against a bookcase and on a table. (She did take the time to rip his costume and expose his stellar abs, though.)
“I loved it. I was like, ‘Finally!'” Amrit Kaur, who plays Bela, tells TVLine of her reaction to the unusual hookup. “We’re very private as humans about what we do in the bedroom behind closed doors, but a lot of us engage in costume fantasies, and what’s fun about Bela is she has no shame about it. A lot of us have shame about it, but she’s just in public…happy to be with Franklin the Fox. So I think she reveals us in that sense.”
Getting hot and heavy with an actor dressed as a head-to-toe fox mascot did lead to some unique difficulties for Kaur.
“It presented a lot of hairballs. I felt like a cat. A lot of hairballs, and then spitting them out and using gum in between takes to get the hair out of my mouth,” Kaur shares. “So there were some physical challenges, for sure, but it was very, very fun.”
As hilarious as the sex scene was, there’s even more that was left on the cutting room floor, showrunner Justin Noble reveals.
“It’s so funny to me, and we tried so many different versions of how graphic that sex was,” Noble says with a laugh. “There’s so many funny shots that, someday, we’ll make, like, extended cuts, even though these episodes are longer. But there were so many funny shots of, like, his furry paws hitting the desk in front of her.”
Noble goes on to describe the attraction between Bela and Franklin the Fox as “almost like Phantom of the Opera.”
“It’s like the Essex version of that, where she never sees his face,” Noble says. “She’s obsessed with his, like, ripped body and ability to do backflips, and then eventually, she’s like, ‘I got to cut it off so I can be with my sweet, nerdy boy.’ And then she’s like, ‘I don’t even want to see your face,'” which, of course, is extremely handsome, as seen in the video above.
