But Eva is getting sick of being made to pose in stupid mum-and-daughter matching outfits for sponsored posts. The freebies aren't worth the teasing at school. And when an intensely humiliating period party post goes viral, Eva is outraged. She's going to find a way to stop the channel, even if she has to sabotage it herself.
