Oh, soop, you do realise that it's been many moons since the table napkins in Lil's Bar were laundered, never mind starched (at least, not with starch) don't you? They are now an assortment of filthy rags, having been used to mop up all sorts of spillages and accidental leakages (remember gramps's bout of incontinence not long ago?), and fit only for the pig bucket where green's been boiling them up with the tripe and onions.
I fear that doesn't say much for Ella's state of purity.....
