304 Recap by The Sci-Fi Bard

 

 


Cut to:

Angus The MANgus, Angelica and Kit.

The MANgus goes to put the baby down to sleep and Kit let's him, saying he'll do it easier than she will.
The MANgus uses that as an excuse to sweet talk Kit and wont even let her set the table for dinner, insisting he'll do it himself.
Kit looks very pleased with herself when he goes off with Angelica to Bette and Tina's bedroom.
Do we call Kit a cradle snatcher?
Nah.
More like a high school snatcher ;-)

Cut to: Jenny and Moira arriving at Billie's party.

Billie answers the door with THE most godawful blonde Tin Tin-esque hairdo and a t-shirt that says DRUG DEALER.

Yep, that's our Billie alright! ;-)

He introduces them to everyone at the party and as he does so, he asks Moira, "do you go by any other name?"
"Not really..." Moira starts to say, but Jenny butts in with, "she sometimes goes by 'Max' "
Moira looks at her as if she's told a secret that she shouldn't, but it's too late now honeypie....

Oh and did I mention Mr Blaikie is wearing a leather skirt/kilt?
Well, he is.
(I'm half-Scottish myself, but personally I think men wearing kilts is JUST an excuse for them to wear a skirt! TRUST me on that one *g*)

Billie introduces the newcomers to some of his friends - most of whom seem rather, shall we say, androgynous, if not, utterly genderqueer.

"How ya doin' Max?" asks a cute boi, who could be a girl, who's become a boy, or a boy who's become a girl.
Or I guess they could either be a boy OR a girl.
Who am I to make hasty judgements about what sex people are!!!??
*hastily crowbars self out of THAT argument*

Cut back to: Kit in Bette's kitchen, getting the dinner ready for her and The MANgus.

Angus comes back from putting Angelica down, spies Kit busying herself in the kitchen and scolds her for not taking it easy and letting him do that for her.
He comes up behind her, puts a hand on her waist and with the other, moves the hair off one side of her neck, ready to kiss it.
"What are you doing?" asks Kit nervously.
"Mowing the lawn......what's it look like I'm doing!" says Angus slyly. LOL! Nice one son! ;-)

Kit turns round and they slowly kiss for a few seconds.
WOO-HOO! Go Kit! GO KIT!

BUT then Kit pulls away - boooooo!
"I'm almost old enough to be your mother..." admits Kit
"My GRANDmother.....but I don't care....." adds Angus, and leans in to kiss her again.
VERY nice one Angus! That's it, you go get that sassy slice of Porter!

Kit kisses him back for a little bit but then breaks off AGAIN!
GIRLFRIEND, WHAT'S YOUR PROBLEM!!?
DON'T you WANNA get a lil something something! lol!

Kit tries to explain that their doing this isn't right etc and Angus wants to know why, as it feels really right to him.
Kit says that he's a child and is almost tempted back into another kiss, when she remembers what she's JUST said, so moves away and into the other room, away from temptation.

Cut back to: Moira and Jenny at the party.

A drag queen/transgender guy/girl with a feather boa asks Jenny what her book is about.
"It's about some bullshit from my childhood" states Jenny theatrically, with a smile.

Good grief Ilene! Who IS this woman and WHAT have you done with the REAL Jenny!
LMAO! ;-)

The drag queen/transgender guy/girl says to Moira that she's a sword swallower:
"I have a very very deep throat..."
And a very very deep voice to go along with it my dear ;-)

A woman who looks almost the doppleganger of the lead singer of Bif Naked says that "Tom's a writer too" of her boyfriend, sitting next to her.
Tom, at a guess, would be a FTM (female to male) transsexual.
Or possible he's just a baby faced actor they got in to PLAY a FTM transsexual.
Who could say? and really, who cares!

Tom says he's writing a screenplay at the moment, and Billie butts in, moaning about who "everyone else in HelL.A. is doing that too".
Jenny pipes up that she ISN'T though (she must be one of the few then!), and that she doesn't EVER wanna write a screenplay (which, in TV land, probably means she WILL be doing just that in a future episode....) and Billie, rather sweetly, congratulates her on her integrity.

But then, he hasn't read or had to endure any of the other utterly pretentious tripe she's come out with in the last two seasons, so I'm sure he'd change his tune if he HAD.

Btw, did I mention that Jenny is drinking out of THE hugest wine glass I have ever had the pleasure to clap my eyes on?!
It MUST hold a bottle and a half of wine at least!

Moira asks what Tom's screenplay is about and he says, "THE Life! Girl who becomes a boy, what he goes through" etc etc
Moira seems really genuinely interested in what he says. HOW unsurprised am I at that.....*yawn*

"So, it's about YOUR life?" enquires Max/Moira, shyly.
"OR, maybe it's about YOURS.......Max, huh?" adds Billie, looking at Moira.

When Moira doesn't say yeah or nay, Billie backtracks, apologising if he's had the wrong end of the stick about her etc
But instead of saying he has, Moira shakes her head and says it's ok.
That she's definitely THOUGHT about it.
Jenny turns to her and immediately asks "WHEN did you think about it?!"
M: "Since I was a kid"
J: "And how come you've never told me about it?"
M: "I dunno....it just never.......never seemed like something you 'talk' about, y'know?"

Poor Moira :-(

"Awww you can talk about it darlin'. You HAVE to talk about it!" explains Billie.
Moira looks at Jenny, slightly shy and embarrassed to have admitted something so private.
MUCH to her credit, Jenny doesn't freak out, or shout or start questioning her. Instead she just smiles genuinely and puts a hand on her arm to comfort her.

Y'know, I'm really quite liking the Jenny/Moira dynamic.
Last season, Jenny was 'finding herself', and now this season we have Moira, who is on the same journey of self-discovery, only with different parameters (gender identity instead of child abuse/rape/self harm etc)

So far the pair have been good for each other.
Let's hope it continues.
For both their fragile sakes.
