Cut to:
Bette and Tina in bed.
Ok, who'll take a bet with me that this scene WON'T be all hearts and
flowers and loving sentiments!?
What! NO ONE?!
Grrrr..... ;-)
Bette turns over in her sleep and her arm flops over Tina's waste so they're
basically spooning.
Tina is awake.
Bette comes too, realises where her arm has fallen and apologizes.
"Sorry.....I didn't mean to touch you...."
GOOD GRIEF!
WHY are these two still together?!
"Sorry.....I didn't mean to touch you...." is NOT the kind of thing one
loving partner says to another!
I so wish Jennifer Beal's pregnancy hadn't dictated the storyline so much
this season.
These two can't share any intimacy without it being stilted or ruined. I
wonder, had Jennifer NOT fallen pregnant, if the storyline this season for
Bette/Tina would have remained the same. I sure hope not.
"I don't mind being touched by you" says Tina softly.
"Obviously you do" replies Bette.
Ouch!
"While I'm away I want you to move out" states Bette coldly.
Tina, upon hearing this, isn't happy.
"Where am I supposed to go?!" she says, questioning Bette's logic.
Bette suggests she move into the spare room as she doesn't want her in her
bed anymore.
Tina says fine if that's what she wants, but Bette comes back, saying that
it's NOT what SHE wants, it's TINA that has decided she likes guys again etc
"Y'know, I'M not the one who decided the last 8 years of her life were some
meaningless little dalliance in the land of alternative lifestyles!"
snaps Bette.
Tina quickly states that isn't true and Bette knows that.
She also says she can't help feeling what she's feeling, which I guess is
fair enough.
It's still pretty crummy for us viewers though, isn't it.
Bette goes over and picks up Angelica, cooing and baby talking at her.
Tina gets up immediately and takes the baby from Bette, talking to her,
saying "c'mon, let's go nurse in MY room", and she promptly goes to the
spare room, leaving Bette alone.
Y'know, I can't think of a more sucky relationship on the whole of TV at the
moment than this one.
It's painful to watch.
It's painful to hear.
*sigh*
Cut to:
Carmen and Shane spooning asleep in bed.
Carmen is having a nightmare and starts flailing her arms about, clonking
Shane in the face.
Shane calls to her, waking her up, telling her she's having a nightmare and
that she's hitting and kicking her etc.
Carmen had no idea she was doing that and so apologizes.
Then she tells Shane about her dream.
Like most dreams, much of it makes little sense, so I wont repeat it all
here.
BUT, the one thing I will tell you is that Carmen remembers that in her
dream, Shane gave Cherie Jaffe a tattoo like Shane and Carmen got last week
on the show.
Carmen asks Shane WHY she would do that (er, it was in a DREAM luv, I don't
think Shane has much control over what YOU dream she does at night! lol!)
and Shane, still groggy from sleep, says she didn't do anything.
Carmen is VERY upset though, even though Shane repeatedly states she didn't
give Cherie a tattoo etc - so much so that she eventually gets out of bed
and storms off telling Shane "that's really fucked up!".
OOOOOOOk......ya gotta love that fiery Latino temperament.
Or, perhaps not, in this case. Poor Shane! lol!
She's left lying there looking bewildered.
Cut to:
Alice blitzing something in a blender.
Dana calls to her from the next room and Alice says she's just coming.
Then we see Dana is sitting on her bed and her hair is coming out in chunks
(from the Chemo) which really freaks her out, so she shouts louder for
Alice.
In the kitchen, Alice finishes off Dana's health drink and comes into the
bedroom.
Dana shows her that her hairs falling out in chunks and says it's a shame
Lara isn't around to see it.
*rolls eyes*
Then she says she might save her hair and sell it on ebay.
Alice tells her not to be so morbid and gives her the shake to drink.
Dana says she feels sick, so wont drink the shake but Alice insists, saying
it's good for her.
Alice goes and gets a bag and Dana asks what's in it.
Turns out Alice went shopping for a bunch of wigs for Dana as she knew her
hair would start to fall out soon.
The first one which is short and flicky, Alice names "Shaggy Chic"
The second is long and blonde, "Blondes Have More Fuuuuuuuun!"
The third is long and red, "ROCKIN' REDHEAD!"
Dana says she can't wear a wig cause she'd look stupid in it.
Alice says she wont.
Dana tries on the long red one, and ends up looking like a bad Xena-impersonator
at a convention! lol!
As she's trying on the short, flicky one the phone rings.
Turns out it's her mother, but Dana wont answer it.
Dana says her mother is doing her head in, "she keeps calling me, saying 'I
read about an amputee who won a tournament!' "
Dana says her mother is driving her nuts.
Alice says she's just trying to help Dana be positive etc and that she
shouldn't shut her out.
Dana asks Alice what WOULD make her feel better and desperately states she's
"disappearing".
She looks in the mirror again and feels her eyebrows. A chunk of which comes
away in her hand.
Cut to:
MoiraMax and Jenny sitting in their living room.
The fact that they are BOTH using Apple laptops is something that bugs the
hell outta me, cause let's face it, HOW could MoiraMax afford a laptop, let
alone an Apple one?
Oh and don't tell me Jenny bought it for her, cause MoiraMax just wouldn't
have let her do that, would s/he?!
Anyhoo.....
MoiraMax wants to read Jenny something she's just written.
It's a statement informing her friends that she'll now be going by the name
of "Max" and that people should only use the male pronoun when referring to
her.
*yawn*
I can't say I'm particularly riveted by the MoiraMax storyline so far.
But then again I guess the character of Moira IS a poster child for this
season, what with it being all to do with CHANGE.
