Lara begins to lead Dana into her room, Dana follows, as in a trance. They walk into the bedroom and Dana thinks of all the time they shared in that bed. She follows Lara to the bed. They sit on the bed together, and Lara begins to seductively seduce Dana, and Dana, getting caught up in the heat of the moment, goes with it.

***Bette and Tinas

Alice: I wonder what they are doing. NoI dont want to know. Should I call? No I told her to callbut why hasnt she called yet? I know she and Lara.I know it. Dammit.

****At the Planet

Kit is telling the table about something Ivan had said the other night, they are all laughing at Kit.

Bette: You really need to be careful, Kit, Ivan is a girl, and YOU are not *****!

Kit: how do you know baby girl? I might be as ***** as your happy little ***** is. You have no idea.

Bette: You have not got a ***** bone in your body, besides, only one ***** person in the Porter family, remember?

Kit: oh yea, that was the only time I did not disappoint Melvin, when Bette told him she was *****, he said well at least Kit has not done THAT.

Everyone was laughing at the sisters conversation.

Alice: oh ***** Dana and Lara.

Lara holding Danas hand, waves to the group. Your friends are here, should we sit with them?

Dana: yes I guess we should, (she releases her hand from Laras)

Dana: Hi everyone, how is going?

Everyone: Hi guys

Dana looks at Alice Did you get the article finished Al?

Alice: no, ummm, I hope to finish it soon, I got an extension at any rate.

Lara: so catch me up on what I have missed.

Shane: no can do Lara, too much has happened, be glad you werent here for this drama, right Kit?

Kit: oh ***** yea, but I will tell you that you are looking GREAT!!

Lara: thanks Kit, I love Colorado, the air is so fresh, I spent a lot of time outside, even took tennis lessons. (she smiles at Dana)

Alice: Great, now you have a partner to practice with Dane.

Alice regretted it the moment it came out of her mouth. I mean a sparring partner

Dana: yes I know what you meant.

Bette: Umm, T, did you want to go to that movie?

Tina: Oh yes, Shane, Kit, you guys remember we talked about the movie the other day?

Shane: oh yea, umm yea lets go

Bette: Al, Lara Dana, would you guys like to go?
The three look at each other, No thank you Alice and Lara reply.

Dana wants to say yes, anything to get out of this.

Dana: no thanks guys, I think I will hang out with these two.

Bette: okay have fun you guys (whispering to Alice) dont give up hope, Al.

Alice: thanks Bette.

Lara: okay, so now they are gone, what is the deal with Candace and Bette? I have been dying to know.

Alice: how did you meet her anyway?

Lara: I wasat the beach, just thinking (looking at Dana) about things, and she was sitting not to far from me, she asked if she could sit with me, I said yes. We started talking, she was telling me she was having problems with this girl she had dated, and I stated that I was too, more or less. She asked me if I wanted to go out, I thought well, no harm to do that. So I said yes. Of course, I picked the worst one possible.

Alice: Bettemade a mistake, and Candace was it. Pretty cut and dry, needless to say we were rather shocked to see you with her.

Dana: shocked to see you in general. You were gone a long time, Lara.

Lara: yes, I know, I thought about calling you everyday, but you were so upset the day you broke up with me, I thought I could not handle another outburst again, you said some pretty mean things.

Dana: I am sorry.

Alice: should I go?

Dana: no, I think I need to say this to both of youI like you both very much. Lara, you and I had a good thing going, and I messed it up, I am sorry. You left, and I thought you were gone for good. I moved on. I figured you did the same. Alice, you have been there for me through a lot, you have truly become my best friend. I never dreamed I would be sitting at a table, with the two of you, trying to figure out what to do. I guesswellwhat I am trying to say isI think I would like to just date people. You know, just date. I am not sure if we can handle it, but that is what I would like to do, right now.

Lara was the first one to speak up, Dana, when you say, date people, you are referring to me and Alice right?

Dana: yes, I want to go out with both of you, I cant choose right now.

Alice: I guess I could give it a shot now that means I can date too right?

Lara: yea, can we date? Not each other, (laughing)

Dana: ummm, yes I guess that is fair. Can we all do this and remain friends?

Alice: I know I can,

Lara: I will give it a try.

Dana: good, I think.

****at the movies

Kit: Shane what do you think is going to happen with our new little triangle?

Bette and Tina: shhhhhhh

Shane: I dont know Lara and Dana they were hot together.

Bette: be quiet guys, we are watching the movie.

Kit: you are not, you are feeling your wife up, so you be quiet

Shane: Oh my God, you guys need to stop

Tina: (laughing) her hand is on my knee, now be quiet.

People in the movie: shhhhhhhh

Kit: I know they did not just shhh me

Bette: Kit, stop, watch the movie.

Kit: girl, if they shh me again, I might just lose it.

Tina (laughing uncontrollably) Bette, Kit shhhhh

Kit: oh no you didnt

Usher: excuse me ladies, I need to ask you to refrain from talking or I will have to remove you from the theatre.

Tina: oh sorry, yea we will be quiet

Bette: very quiet

Shane: not a whisper

Kit: shhhhh

Tina lost it, she got up and ran out of the theater, laughing.

Bette: (to the usher) um excuse me, I should go check on her.

Kit and Shane: yes we will too.

Tina: I really wanted to see that movie, baby

Bette: we will go see it alone!

Kit: it was not that good.

Shane: how the ***** do you know, you talked through all of it.

Shane: okay since the movie is a bust, I think I am going to Radar, and see what is happening?

Kit: I think I will go with you.

Bette and Tina: have fun you guys.

Tina: I love having you rub my feet. Being at home, with you. I am happy.

Bette: I love that you are happy. I hope things work out for Dana.

Tina: Yea, me too, but that is tough, Alice and Dana have gotten so close. But she and Lara, they were good together.

Bette: you and I are good together. (She kisses the tip of Tinas toes) I am sorry about the movie, I should never go to the movie with Kit.
