#4.2 Recap by The Sci-Fi Bard

 

 


Cut to:

Bette, interviewing for her T.A. position.
One guy leaves on a good note and then it's Miss Pretty Blonde's turn.
Turns out her name's Nadia.
Is it my imagination, or is she wearing tailored SHORTS with that fitted jacket and low cut blouse?
*bewildered*

WHO goes to a prestigious interview in SHORTS?! (Unless it's for a job at a surf shop...)
Bette's assistant from the CAC, James is there, and it's nice to see him, the loyal little scamp! ;-)

Bette and Nadia make small talk about Greece, and as they enter Bette's office, Nadia turns to Hirsute Friend (who's also waiting to be interviewed) and makes the universal face for "GOD! SHE'S HOTTER THAN J-LO!".

Cut back to:

Shay and Shane at The Planet.
Kit's feeding Shay fries and Shane's sitting there depressed.

"Helena hates me, doesn't she" inquires Shane
Alice: "Nooo, she doesn't hate you, but y'know, apart from Carmen she IS the one who got hurt the most....
y'know, she's my roommate now?"
Shane: *surprised* "Really?!"
Alice: *nods*
Shane: "Well, what do you think I could do to make it up to her?"
Alice: "You got $40 million stashed away in a sock?!"

*sniggers*

Cut to:

Bette and Nadia going over Nadia's portfolio.

She mentions being inspired by Bette's show at the CAC.
(what a suckup! lol!)

Is it my imagination, or are they both pronouncing artist, Moholy Nagy's name wrong?

Oh well....

Nadia's trying so hard to impress her prospective boss, laughing at all her comments and generally belittling herself whilst at the same time praising Bette.

Then she goes in for the kill....

*looking at Bette's arms* "Wow, are you an athlete?..."
Bette: "No...why?"
Nadia: "Because you have very beautiful arms...." *meaningful look*

Bette laughs it off and Nadia slips into the conversation that her ex-girlfriend was a professional boxer and Bette's arms remind her of her ex's.

(Ooooh, smooooooth way to introduce the fact you're a rabid lesbo suckup Nadia!)

Bette: "Well, I'm not a boxer, so I better not get in the ring with her...."

Cue awkward, embarrassed laughter from both of them.
Has anyone noticed that in the last few seconds, Bette has gotten up from where they were sitting and has gone to stand behind her desk?.....
Perhaps she felt it was best to put a barrier between her and Nadia before the other woman could jump her bones right there in her office, which is obviously was she desperately wants to do ;-)

Bette mentions wanting to use a metaphor in a presentation and cites an artist she'd liked to use the work of in it, but can't remember his name.
Nadia, of course, comes to her rescue with the name and goes on to sing his praises, further ingratiating herself into Bette's favour.

So much so that Bette decides she'd like to work with Nadia on the presentation the next day!

Nadia: *seductively* "When do you want me?...."
Bette: "9 o'clock..."
Nadia: "I'll be here at 8:30....*

The two stare at each other for a moment then Nadia takes her portfolio and her shorts and goes.
Leaving Bette sitting at her desk, flexing her biceps self-consciously.

LMAO!

Cut to:

Max arriving at his bosses house to pick up the bosses daughter for a date.
I wont go into too much detail here, as personally I find Max a bit dull, but Max and his boss talk about remote control power boats (Mr Boss Man is playing with his in his indoor swimming pool - do men EVER grow up?!), then his daughter, Brooke comes over and Max gives her some flowers.

Cut to:

The Planet, where everyone talks to Helena about the fact that HETina actually did what her new boss wanted, and came and fired Helena. Helena tries to defend HETina, but Shane/Bette/Kit etc aren't impressed with HETina's "collaborator" attitude in carrying out her bosses handwork.

Then the conversation turns to Shay.
He's sitting in the background having a shake for most of the conversation (which concerns the fact he should be in school etc) but when he comes over to say hi he says he's gonna be sick.
Shane sends him off to the bathroom alone, until Bette tells her off, saying she should go with him etc.
Bette: *concerned* "Hold his hair!"
Shane: *indignant* "He doesn't HAVE any hair!"

LOL! Poor Shane, she hasn't got a clue.

Cut to:

A posh restaurant, where Brooke and Max are talking on their date.
Strangely, the topic up for discussion ISN'T how easy it is to get testosterone injections on the black market these days....

Max, is of course, great with the insights into the female/male power dynamic, which impresses Brooke.
Max is sweet and everything, but let's see how long Brooke sticks around AFTER the other shoe drops.

Cut to:

Alice arriving at the bar where she's supposed to meet Papi.
It's a very 'Latina' place, complete with Mexican-ish music playing, and the pre-requisite hirsute, large men playing table football in the back.

NO ONE there resembles ANYONE who would be a massive lesbian lothario hub on Alice's chart.

Alice notices this too.

Bartender: "You lookeen for somebody 'miga?"
Alice: *looking around and acting like her search is confidential* "I am.......
do you know anyone by the name of Papi?"

The bartender says Papi is one of the large, hairy men I just mentioned.

Alice nods knowingly to the barkeep, stuffs her hands in her pockets and leaves.

As she exits the bar her phone goes off.
Whoever it is, Alice then turns and sees a limo parked nearby.
The person on the other end of the phone has obviously directed her to get in, and she does so.
Once inside:

"Hooookay, what's the plan?" Alice says to the driver.

Said driver turns round, revealing it's a woman: "I ain't got no plan baby - it's YOU who wanted to see ME...." and we see the limo driving off.

Alice, Papi and limos - oh my!

Cut to:

Jenny being interviewed by a Ms Stacy Merkin for Curve magazine.
Stacy is played by the lovely Heather Matarazzo, who just so happens to be a 'lover of Sappho' in real life.
:-)

The two chat and seem to hit it off really well.
(Careful Jenny, no matter how nice she seems she's STILL a journalist....)
