The L Word s03e12 Episode Script
Left Hand of the Goddess
Previously on The L Word This is Bette.
This is Angelica's other mother.
Thanks for letting us hang with Angelica today.
- You want me to take a picture? - A family picture.
You're Angelica's intended parent.
California court would almost certainly grant the adoption.
That's not what I want.
I don't want 50-50 joint custody.
Don't tell me you're trying to get out of child support.
I want sole custody.
Her blood pressure started to fall and inspite of our best efforts her heart failed and we couldn't bring her back.
Are you gonna sell out? Start sleeping with the enemy? If you think men are the enemy, than you and I have a problem.
I'm her girlfriend.
We live in the same house and we sleep in the same bed.
- mother.
- Get out.
Both of you.
Do you marry me? Yes.
- Hi.
- Hi.
Come in.
Scratch me.
- Oh Harder.
- I don't wanna hurt you.
It's ok.
I just wanna feel something.
I want you to make me bleed.
Please, make me bleed.
It's sort of like a Mexican wedding cake.
it's got pineapple and walnuts in it.
Lara, you are a culinary genious.
Do you guys think that Shane's gonna go through with it? I have to admit, I'm a little bit surprised that she's gotten this far.
All I can say is she'd better go through with it because I put 15 rooms at the Fairmont Chateau Whistler.
Not to mention thewhat was it? - The fondue.
- The massages.
That's very generous of you.
It's nice to have rich friends, isn't it? You know, it makes me happy to to it 'cause Shane doesn't have any family and Carmen I don't know if any of the them coming.
Are there any of her family coming? Oh my God! You guys haven't heard about Shane? - You know? - What? That Shane's meeting with her dad tomorrow.
- What? - I thought Shane was an orphan.
Yeah I thought she was an orphan too.
A couple of weeks ago Her dad's wife was in a beauty salon or whatever and she was reading Angelina Magazine.
- I did that.
- Alright, that piece about WAX.
I didn't see that.
She gave it to her dad, and her dad called Anyway, Shane is going to Oregon City to visit Gabriel - McCutcheon.
- Wow! I think I'm gonna go, you guys.
- Byebye.
- Bye Alice.
- Your cake was fantastic.
- Oh thank you.
It was really good.
Kit, can i have your cake? Bye! - Hey Alice? - Yeah? Are you ok? Yeah.
I am.
I just have a lot to do with the wedding and everything.
Thanks for asking.
No.
I don't want Carmen to know.
I don't wanna get her hopes up.
Just make sure the hotel's holding the rooms, alright? You should see Carmen, she looks incredible! Fine.
I've gotta go.
Bye.
twist and turn and shake it all loud.
I don't know.
What should I do? Should I go like bridal femme? Should I totally try and push it up in some way? What's Shane doing? Is she wearing a traditional tux? No, It's Shane.
So she's not gonna do anything traditional.
You know what? It doesn't matter.
You should just do whatever feels good for you.
Try this one.
- What? - I don't know.
I don't know.
Am i really trying to marry the most unobtainable person on the face of this planet? It's ok.
You were thinking about ditching on me, weren't you? - No, I - Yes, you were.
I saw it in your eyes.
Come on.
It's ok.
So you're a hairdresser in a skateboard shop.
I might need an explanation.
Don't really have one.
It's just what I do.
Ok! Have you always wanted to do that? Did you go to school for it? No, I just kinda picked it up on the way.
You're not giving me a lot to work with here.
You don't like answering questions, huh? Well, I don't either.
So go ahead, ask me something.
Why did you wanna meet me? I didn't.
My wife Carla made me.
At least you're honest.
When I saw you standing up there on the street when I saw you deciding if you were gonna ditch me I was thinking the exact same thing.
I bet you were.
Kind of like when I was little, right? Kind of sorta.
This needs to be taken in like this.
- That's a lot though.
- I don't like it.
Jenny, what did you wear when you got married.
- You were married? - Oh yes.
I wore a beautiful pair of black Converse with a great pair of rich tights with dirt on them.
A jeans skirt and then I wore this beautiful old ripped stained pink sweatshirt.
That's not exactly your wedding dress of your childhood dreams.
I didn't really have that childhood thing of you know, getting married.
You know that all little girls are supposed to have that kind of dream, right? Not little gay girls.
Oh, wow.
This has 'Jenny' written all over it.
That's beautiful.
Look at the beats.
When Tina and I were talking about getting married, We both wanted to have fabulous dresses.
How come you guys didn't get married? Tina thought it would be too conventional.
She didn't wanna cleave to the heterosexual paradigm.
Now it's cleaving all over her.
Oh God! Come back to us, Tina.
Come back on our site.
Fuck that.
They can have her.
I think you would look beautiful in your wedding dress.
Go on, Bette.
Try it on.
No thanks.
I mean, I knew I was gay since I was 12, but I don't know, I was just kinda dreaming of something like this.
I was working until I hurt my back.
Now I drive a truck for a beverage distributor.
How did you hurt your back? Thank you.
We have these long bags, you know? And we tend to hunch forward to slant our shoulders.
You always did as a kid.
I used to come watch you.
I'd see you on the playground at Church School.
You always looked so pissed off.
You never talked to me.
It wouldn't have been much good to you back then.
All I cared was getting high getting laid I'd probably still be doing it if my friend Chuck hadn't OD'ed.
I'm sorry.
As strong as I was, it really shakes you hard when you lose someone that's really close to you.
Yeah.
I I just lost a really close friend recently.
So Why don't you come home with me for dinner? It'd be a good time to meet Carla and Shay.
Shay? We almost called him Shane because I love the name so much.
I named you that, you know? She's been with Tina and Henry for the last two nights.
I don't know why I should have to share my time.
Because it would look bad in court if Tina tells the judge that you refused to fly on the same plane with her.
Her boyfriend is coming up on the weekend.
Why can't she just wait and go up with him? Joyce, I can't be in close corners with her.
I just can't.
Just be genial and civil, ok? Just do it for your kid.
But whatever you do, Bette, please don't cause a scene.
What if she brings up the custody plan? You don't tell her that we're going for sole custody.
We don't want her to know about that until we tell her.
I know.
- Ok? - Yeah.
I think I'm gonna take that job.
Excellent! That will play very well in court.
Dean of a prestigious art school And it can't hurt when it comes to pulling in chicks.
Excuse me? Lots of pretty young art students It'll be like a kid in a candy store.
God Joyce.
You're clearly unethical.
I would never do anything like that.
Excuse me, I'm so sorry, counselor - I need to talk to you.
It's important.
- What is the matter? - Let's just go.
- Excuse me.
Why do go in the bathroom? - What's that? - What do you think? That's a home pregnancy test.
Oh come on Kit, you're in menopause, you can't be pregnant.
Ah who says, huh? This is a home test.
I mean, they're totally unreliable.
You have to do more than one.
You can't do Fuck! That quantum futon chip is gonna blow everything else out of the water.
That's a method that is totally becoming a regular feature of my toolkit.
I wanna develop a program that navigates documentation for IT process best practises.
I like the way you think, Max.
Original thinkers are the most valuable pieces of manpower.
I've always been really interested in technological inovation.
Come talk to me, Max.
I already have the market texture.
Jenny? My wife places over too when I get going on this stuff.
Oh I'm sorry.
Do I appear a little spaced off? I think about all kinds of things when I'm out with these guys.
I think about my pedicure, my kid's homework, my charity auction.
I'm thinking about a story that I'm working on about how when I was 12, I used to masturbate like 20 times a day and I'm not sure whether I should make it like fiction or like a New Yorker style essay piece.
I don't know.
Dinner was phenomenal.
Thank you.
- Score! - Nice shot.
You got past my goal.
Good job, there you go.
I knew you were his daughter and it wasn't just because of the name.
It was the picture.
You have his genes.
His very strong genes.
I mean, look at all three of you.
Hey Shay, Shane has a skateboard shop.
You skateboard? I do.
We even have a halfpipe at the store.
Cool! Looks like you're doing real well there, I mean you have your own line of hair products and everything.
Shane for WAX.
I love that.
Oh thank you, that was my partner Chase's idea.
- Oh is he the boy of the Mohaw? - Yeah, that's him on the picture.
- Yeah.
- Are you two? - Oh, no no.
- Oh.
Come on.
Now finish your dinner or I'll take the game off the table.
I'm actually getting married next week.
Wow! That's wonderful! Gabe! You're getting married, wow.
Who knew? Not me.
Well, just because it took you 45 years to settle down, Gabe Everywhere we went Women just through themselves at him.
He didn't even have to do anything.
Nobody ever thought he'd settle down.
And look at me now.
Well, it looks pretty good.
It's great.
So what does he do, your guy? She's a DJ.
And her name is Carmen.
Well see, I told you.
I looked at your picture and I said I bet she's gay.
- She did.
She nailed that.
- Yeah.
Yes.
Ah, you won! My dad always lets me win.
So - Where are you getting married? - In Whistler.
- Canada.
- Yeah.
- I've heard you can do that there, yeah? - Yes, you can.
Justyeah Hey, we should go! I mean, it's so close.
We Honey, slow down.
We haven't exactly been invited.
Oh No, you're invited.
I'd like for you guys to be there.
Ifyou'd like.
I want to believe, my friends.
Believe me, I do.
'Cause my friend Shane is getting married this weekend.
And I wanna believe for Shane.
And I wanna believe for all of the rest of us who are flailing around in this abyss trying to feel what we're supposed to feel in order to connect in meaningful ways.
I wanna believe that real true connection among human beings is actually possible.
And supposedly marriage can access.
I mean, supposedly it improves our moral fiber and all.
Which begs the question Why do this crazy creepy defending-the-family crusaders think it's a bad thing for gays? Why can't they just wish us well? Hypocrites.
'Cause we're going to Canada, people, whether you like it or not to take our best shot at this connection.
And if we fail, it is not because we're less wholesome than you are.
Please, I mean you guys have been feeling this miserably since the beginning of recorded history.
And if we succeed, and our love connections actually flourish then there's a little less loneliness in the world.
And even I might start believe in miracles.
- Welcome to Fairmont Chateau Whistler.
- Thank you.
Hi.
Hello.
Wow, look at this place.
Here comes the bride.
Look at this.
Happy? This is amazing.
It's so nice you're here for the wedding, Peggy.
They're all dressed in the same clothes.
She didn't think they were coming though.
I think Helena might have had something to do with it.
Perdona me My baby getting married! Everybody, this is Carmen's friend Helena.
She's the one that phoned me and invited us all and paid for our plane tickets and our hotel rooms.
Thank you, Helena! It's my pleasure.
I guess it grows on trees.
You bought a dress? I need to check it.
I want to make sure that jewelry goes with it.
And look, we have Bebi to do your hair! Oh, Shane, Shane you're going to make such a handsome bride.
Oh, groom Thank you.
So handsome.
You are coming with us, we are going sighting at the Whistler village.
Not allowed to see her now until the wedding, ok? Ok.
- Bye.
- Bye.
Hey baby, sure you don't wanna come up? It's really fun.
Alright, I see you later.
Do you hate skiing also? I just hate all the bullshit that you have to go through with all the equipment.
Me too.
I don't do any leisure activities that require me to use more than one piece of equipment.
Except sex.
Sex isn't a leisure activity.
What is sex then? Sometimes it's a revelation.
Sometimes it's fun.
Sometimes it's scary.
Sometimes it's tepid.
Which is it with your friend? I'm interested.
I've never been with a transsexual.
That's a personal question.
I only ask questions that are personal.
Questions that can't be answered by a text book.
Besides, I'm writing an article.
About sex with a transsexual? Unfortunately no.
Just a very silly article for a very silly magazine.
Gay travel destination.
So I'd like to know what it's like here for you and Max.
Why is your article silly? Because I think every place should be a gay travel destination.
We limit ourselves with these stupid Labels.
Labels.
I guess Wilson wasn't ashamed of paying a black writer.
His entire life was the black experience.
And he never apologized, right? I don't wanna be labeled as a gay writer.
Why? Why? What are you afraid of? Ce n'est pas juste.
Pourquoi c'est pas juste? Parce que.
Because you didn't like labels.
You like that? Yeah.
Thank you, Buster the horse.
Thank you, Bably the horse.
We're almost back.
I was just gonna say.
How do you make the horses stop? You say 'Woa'.
That was incredible.
Did you see her face? I know, I know.
So sweet.
That was almost as good as her first step.
I wouldn't know.
You were in retreat.
I tried to call you.
Anyway, I think it was good that we are both here to see it.
Yeah, I'm glad I was here.
So, Shane.
Where is your lovely bride? Peggy, this is Shane's bachelor party.
Brides are excluded.
Oh my Goodness, I had no idea you were such role-playing lesbians.
No, we're not.
You know, actually I'd like for her to be here but her family is so traditional, so I stepped back.
I think that's nice.
I think that's regressive.
Well, we're pretty traditional in our family too.
Aren't we, Mommy? Oh look, Bette and Tina are here now.
Time for dinner.
Please, take my hand.
And let me bury my head in your ample bosom if I get a little too emotional.
You got quite an appetite there, girl? Better save some room for fondue.
I'm pregnant.
Yeah No fucking way.
No, don't do that! Stop it! I'm sorry, that was completely stupid.
Yeah Ok, ok Let me try this again, erm I don't know what you're planing, but it's certainly your decision completely and totally.
You got that right! Yeah ok, I just want you to know that I'm with you.
I'll support you in whatever decision you make.
Specifically, I'll take you to the doctor I'll hold your hand during the procedure and I'll drive you home and put you to bed with a hot water bubble.
Or, you know, if you decide to go through with it, I'll be your coach and I'll bust my ass to save enough money to put our kid through college.
Ok everybody, we would like to make a toast to our dear friend Shane.
Yes, Shane We have been through a lot together as friends.
Especially in the last few months.
Shane, the thing that you've taught us about friendship, is about being fearless.
So thank you very much, Shane, for convincing me to cut off my lustrous mink-like long mane as short as humanly possible.
And Shane? Thank you very much for not making it look like yours.
It's really grown back fast.
Yes, it has.
Shane, thank you as a friend, for saving me from going home with that girl that night.
You know the one I'm talking about.
And, as a friend, taking her home yourself instead.
Thank you.
Shane, only you could make a two piece ensemble look good.
- At 7.
30 in the morning.
- Drunk.
- After a one-night stand.
In all seriousness, you are our best friend.
Shane, you're the most loyal friend I and, I think I can speak for the group, that we have ever met.
And you've never left our sides when things have become dark.
And I think that you've taught the whole group that people are just beautiful.
And we know that, if Dana was here, that she would be very happy to know that you're marrying someone you love.
So, we love you, very much.
And congratulations.
To Shane! To Shane! Congratulations.
So my dear Shane, although I don't understand why you would embrace an institution that breeds conformity and restricts free will.
That said if you give one another children, I only hope that there is generous and kind lovely as the one my good-for-nothing Brit gave me.
What about that? Are you guys gonna have kids? Well, she's the one who brought it up.
You won't have kids.
You don't one, do you? Yeah, I think I do.
You do? Yeah.
I think you'd be a wonderful parent.
Yeah, and Carmen would be really beautiful pregnant.
What makes you think that Shane wouldn't carry the baby? Ah, woa woa I don't know about that.
I don't know if I go that far, but I think that in any event, I think kids are such a beautiful gift because I don't know, I mean, I look at that little one and that love that you have for her and the love that you actually have for each other despite the things you're going through.
I don't know, it just seems that sometimes love just doesn't last the way you hope it will, but if you get through that pain, it could last in ways that are more precious.
Maybe.
Possibly.
Wow I'm Alice, it's nice to meet you.
Anyway, Shane As your best man Is is my honor to present you the gift from your bride to be.
What? Yes.
What? So, this is a gift from Carmen to Shane with all her heart.
Come on, get up.
What is it? Come on! What the hell is this? Hey, congratulations, Shane, my name's God-des and this is She and Carmen wanted me to tell you something really important.
That there actually is a prescription to a happy marriage.
And this is it: Good evening class I would like to welcome you to Pussy Eating 101.
Pay close attention now.
There's rules and regulations to pleasing a girl.
Going down town could really rock her world.
But you gotta make sure that you know what you're doing.
There's a map down there that you gotta start learnin'.
First you gotta make sure you rehearse.
Move around your tongue like you're trying to curse.
'Cause there's nothing worse than a tongue that doesn't work .
Then your girl will be mad and you feel like a jerk.
Spread out your lips before you kiss.
You wanna make sure that you find the clit.
Lick a little bit then move it all around.
Lick it all over till you hear her make a sound.
Then you know that you found a good spot.
Tease it and touch it but not a lot.
With your mouth down south you're in control.
You can make it happen fast or slow.
Lick it, you better lick it right.
Touch it, better touch it right.
Kiss it, better kiss it right.
Do that pussy right.
Lick it, you better lick it right.
Touch it, better touch it right.
Kiss it, better kiss it right.
Do that pussy right.
Let your mouth do the talkin' and your tongue do the walkin'.
Work on your cardio there is no stoppin' Get through the pain if your jaw locks.
You gotta be a soldier and don't stop.
Lick her and finger her at the same time.
Feel around the G-spot.
Seek and you shall find.
Rub on the spot, lick on top.
You gotta be coordinated.
Show her what you got.
So once you got that down, put your other hand around.
You have to be blunt and not profound.
Put your wet pinky finger in Good night.
Good night.
Good night, sweetie.
Tina? It was a really nice night.
Felt really good to be together and getting along.
And she really loved the sleigh ride.
So did I.
That's what I hope for us, Bette.
For our family.
I hope we can do family things together.
I think that's what would be best for Angelica.
And maybe one day, when we're ready we can take vacations together.
I'd really like that.
Good night.
Good night.
Hey Joyce, It's Bette Porter calling Listen, I'd I'm maybe having a change of heart.
I want you to hold off sending that letter to Tina's lawyer.
I'm not sure that I wanna go for sole custody.
I don't think it's in Angelica's best interest.
So Erm Anyway, call me when you get this message.
Thanks.
Can I come in? Yeah.
But I think we should talk.
What do you wanna talk about? What's happening between us? How you're feeling, how I'm feeling.
I don't wanna talk.
I don't wanna talk.
I love my present.
And I wish I could do exactly what they were talking.
You can't come in.
It's against the rules.
Come on Shane I hope that's Carmen.

Never goes to sleep before 2am.
Oh my God.
This one is the exact same way.
2am.

So aren't you two gonna go skiing? Never skied and I don't figure today is the best day to start.
Well, you could take a private lesson.
Yeah, she's right.
And we've got private instructors for everyone.
I think Carmen and her sisters are up there.
Oh really? No, you go along.
We're just gonna hang out here.
Ok.
Ok, wellwhat should we do? Should we stay at Blackcomb or should we check out Whistler? Whistler has more snow.
Alright, let's go.
Bye.
Byebye.
You know, if there's anything you two need This whole wedding is like a gift to Shane from me, so Just talk to me, ok? Well, it's beautiful up here, isn't it? Hi, I'm Marylin.
You're gonna try it? I see my friends down there.
- The two boys on the snowboards? - Well, they're not boys.
Well, one of them is, sort of The other one, Shane, she's getting married tonight to her girlfriend, Carmen.
I think I'm marrying them.
What do you mean? Well, I'm a marriage commissioner.
I perform wedding ceremonies, mostly same sex couples.
Nice to meet you.
So I justI think it was too much for me, losing her twice.
Yeah, you're like Roxanne and Cyrano de Bergerac.
'In my life I've had but one love.
And now I must lose them twice.
' How is it that you're 56 years old and you've only slept with two women? I mean, when did you realize you were a dyke? Well, Alice, In 1973 I was married and living in Palo Alto, California.
I joined this women's consciousness reason group and there was this women, Teri Oh, she was so free, and in her sexual power.
I was wildly attracted to her.
So you guys got along? No, we kissed once and I guess I was too scared.
No, the first time I made love to a woman was about one year later.
- She was an heiress.
- An heiress? She hired my husband Chad to design her west coast corporate headquarters.
She was fabulous, so beautiful and arrogant.
- So you slept with your husband's boss? - Yeah.
- That's pretty bad girl.
- Yeah, we had a wild affair.
And then she broke my heart.
You know shuttled off to London, married some pennyless aristocrat.
And I went home to my stifling family life and been come out of the closet for another 15 years.
Hey, I have a proposition for you, Alice.
I'm just asking you to think about it, that's all.
No, not suggesting that Bette shouldn't be in Angelica's life.
I won't reneg It's an unrevocable decision, Tina.
If you allow Bette to legally adopt Angelica She'll be tied to you for the rest of your life.
That's what happens when two people have a baby and then they split up.
I gave her my promise.
- Because you feel guilty.
- Because it's the right thing to do.
What if you and I were to decide to get married.
I'd never be able to be Angelica's dad! If she already has another parent, I would be your husband, but I wouldn't legally be your daughter's father.
We're not there yet, Henry.
Bette is Angelica's rightful parent.
You have to understand and respect that.
Here it is, hot of the press! What is it? Is everything ok? Have you seen Alice today? - No, actually I'm worried about her.
- Yeah well, me too.
I know.
- Oh really? - Yeah.
Just as you two were settling to work things out.
It'll be alright.
Hello? Joyce, hi.
Yeah, I'm on a skilift, whats up? Shit! You're fucking kidding me.
Well, can you get it back? Fuck! Ok, tell him not to open it.
Then tell him not to send it to Tina.
Joyce? Shit! Shit, Shit, Shit! Fuck, I have to get off the line.
I've gotta go find Tina, shit! Damn it! What's the fastest way? Across this way is going to be the Black Diamond run.
But there's moguls.
Do you ski moguls? No, I cannot ski fucking moguls.
Hey Tina, it's Bette.
Listen, you're gonna get a letter from my lawyer today and I just want you to disregard it.
It was a mistake.
And I'm very very very sorry.
So just disregard it, ok? And call me when you get this.
Ok, bye.
Fuck.
Fuck!! Ok you're all ready to go.
You sure you've done this before? You don't fall into the abyss, Alice.
You take it on! Ok.
Face the abyss.
Embrace the abyss.
Ok, did you decide on what your thingle's gonna be? Yes, erm I vow that just because I'm 56 years old does not mean that my romantic life is over.
And after this wedding tonight I'm gonna stop marrying other people, and find someone to marry me.
- I like it.
I like that.
- Me too.
What about you? Ok, I vow to stop medicating myself with sex and drugs and let myself feel again.
And? And, yeah, erm I'll talk to Lara about how I feel and I'll ask her how she feels about me.
- Ok.
It's easy.
- Alright, let's do this thing.
I'm ready.
- I'll see you on the other side.
- You ready? - Ok, here I go, guys.
I'm gona.
Holy Shit!! Keep the change, pal.
Let's get out of here Come on.
Here we go.
Who is she? - Who is she? - What's your name, babe? - Patty.
- Her name is Patty.
This is Shane, my daughter.
Can you excuse us for a minute, babe? I'm sorry.
I'm not proud of this.
It's just who I am, ok? I know you know what I'm talking about.
the best meal of your life.
I think we know one another.
- Oh my God.
- 1974.
- Did you get my messages.
I've been looking for you all afternoon.
- Why? So you can take my daughter away from me? Tina, I didn't mean it that way.
I tried to stop it.
But I couldn't get a hold of my lawyer in time.
Oh, your lawyer.
Joyce Wishniak.
That's nice.
Please Tina, try to understand I think I understand everything I need to understand, Bette.
You'll lose everything.
Not even like a stand-on.
- Does he speak for you now? - No, he doesn't.
Henry, don't! - Please, believe me, Tina - Look, I've changed my mind, I don't want you to adopt my daughter.
Henry and I are thinking of starting a family and we want Angelica to be a full part of that.
Don't do this.
I'm warning you.
- Alice is giving Shane away.
- God.
Everyone, my name is Marilyn Sheppard.
I'm the wedding official.
I've just been in touch with Shane McCutcheon.
She doesn't expect you to forgive her She's not proud of this.
It's just who she is.
She wanted me to extend her deepest apologies to all of her friends.
She loves and cherishes you more than you could possibly know.
She apologizes to the Morales family and hopes that you might forgive her someday and maybe even understand.
I'm sorry.
I'm ok.
Take me home, mom.
Don't you want to look for her? Don't you want to know what I already know what happened.
I just want to go home and be with my family.
I wanna get really drunk and then I'm gonna dance and dance and dance.
Would you like to dance? You guys, it's a straight club, you're gonna make people feel uncomfortable.
Then they deserve to be uncomfortable, don't you think? No, I don't think anyone deserves to feel uncomfortable.
Max, I don't understand why you wanna be like these people? You seem so much more interesting as who you are.
How do you know who I am? You don't know who the fuck I am.
How do you know I'm not like these people? Max, you're great the way you are and the way you were.
You know what happens when you walk into this room? - What? - People will start watching you.
They're looking at you closely.
And at first they think you're one of them.
But then they look a little more closely and they begin to feel uneasy because they realize you're not.
You're always gonna be one of the others.
You're like us.
You don't know that.
I'm gonna dance.
- I haven't done this since I was like - Ouch! 14 and it was awful because my little sister was really good at it and I just always ended up making big giant knots.
- I didn't know you had a little sister.
- Yeah, I do, and 3 brothers.
- You do? - That's a big family.
- I know.
I'm really glad that we'reyou knowfinally - Alice - What? What? I need to tell you something.
Hey you two, what are you doing sitting out here? We're just playing.
Trying to get over the debacle of the evening.
Yeah, what a night, huh? - Yeah.
- Poor Carmen.
What do you think happened? Well, Shane's father found 10.
000 dollars, left his wife and ran off with some flizzie.
- What? - Yeah.
Where did Shane's dad get 10.
000 dollars? I don't know.
Oh my God! Is that what happened? Well, he has no money.
He wanted to buy her a wedding gift.
It was heartbreaking.
- Misses Peabody, would there be anything else? - No, no, I'm fine.
I'll be there in a minute.
My darling, I have cherished the time we've spent together.
It has reaffirmed all of my recent convictions.
Now, because I love you so very much.
I'm going to do something truly radical.
- Mommy, he told me, he was going to buy her a gift.
- Sweerheart.
Sweetheart I'm cutting you off financially.
From this moment forth, you are going to have to make relationships with people who love you for yourself.
- Not your money.
- You are not serious? This is gonna turn your life around, darling.
You're such a wonderful girl, such a beautiful girl.
You have such a surprisingly kind heart.
You need to know that people love you even if you're pennyless.
It was wonderful to meet you, Helena.
I look forward to getting to know you better.
Thank you.
Thank you my dear.
Wow! Go Marilyn.
It's ok.
It's ok.
- I cannot believe what Peggy did.
- I know.
- That was so odd.
- I don't know how she's gonna make it.
- I know.
Did you see the look on her face? - Yeah.
She looked like a little girl.
It's crazy.
Where is she? Where are they? I don't know.
Out? What's that? Everything was fine with the little one.
We read our favorite book until her other mother came for her.
Fuck you, Bette! Bette, it's Tina.
This is not ok.
This is not your night with Angelica.
Do you understand? This is not ok.
Where the hell are you? It's ok, baby.
It's ok.
Everything's gonna be just fine.
Angelica and Momma BWe're just gonna go for a little adventure until we figure out what to do next.
Ok? It's ok, sweetie.
It's ok, sweetie.
It's gonna be fine.
It's gonna be fine.
It's gonna be fine.
This is Angelica's other mother.
Thanks for letting us hang with Angelica today.
- You want me to take a picture? - A family picture.
You're Angelica's intended parent.
California court would almost certainly grant the adoption.
That's not what I want.
I don't want 50-50 joint custody.
Don't tell me you're trying to get out of child support.
I want sole custody.
Her blood pressure started to fall and inspite of our best efforts her heart failed and we couldn't bring her back.
Are you gonna sell out? Start sleeping with the enemy? If you think men are the enemy, than you and I have a problem.
I'm her girlfriend.
We live in the same house and we sleep in the same bed.
- mother.
- Get out.
Both of you.
Do you marry me? Yes.
- Hi.
- Hi.
Come in.
Scratch me.
- Oh Harder.
- I don't wanna hurt you.
It's ok.
I just wanna feel something.
I want you to make me bleed.
Please, make me bleed.
It's sort of like a Mexican wedding cake.
it's got pineapple and walnuts in it.
Lara, you are a culinary genious.
Do you guys think that Shane's gonna go through with it? I have to admit, I'm a little bit surprised that she's gotten this far.
All I can say is she'd better go through with it because I put 15 rooms at the Fairmont Chateau Whistler.
Not to mention thewhat was it? - The fondue.
- The massages.
That's very generous of you.
It's nice to have rich friends, isn't it? You know, it makes me happy to to it 'cause Shane doesn't have any family and Carmen I don't know if any of the them coming.
Are there any of her family coming? Oh my God! You guys haven't heard about Shane? - You know? - What? That Shane's meeting with her dad tomorrow.
- What? - I thought Shane was an orphan.
Yeah I thought she was an orphan too.
A couple of weeks ago Her dad's wife was in a beauty salon or whatever and she was reading Angelina Magazine.
- I did that.
- Alright, that piece about WAX.
I didn't see that.
She gave it to her dad, and her dad called Anyway, Shane is going to Oregon City to visit Gabriel - McCutcheon.
- Wow! I think I'm gonna go, you guys.
- Byebye.
- Bye Alice.
- Your cake was fantastic.
- Oh thank you.
It was really good.
Kit, can i have your cake? Bye! - Hey Alice? - Yeah? Are you ok? Yeah.
I am.
I just have a lot to do with the wedding and everything.
Thanks for asking.
No.
I don't want Carmen to know.
I don't wanna get her hopes up.
Just make sure the hotel's holding the rooms, alright? You should see Carmen, she looks incredible! Fine.
I've gotta go.
Bye.
twist and turn and shake it all loud.
I don't know.
What should I do? Should I go like bridal femme? Should I totally try and push it up in some way? What's Shane doing? Is she wearing a traditional tux? No, It's Shane.
So she's not gonna do anything traditional.
You know what? It doesn't matter.
You should just do whatever feels good for you.
Try this one.
- What? - I don't know.
I don't know.
Am i really trying to marry the most unobtainable person on the face of this planet? It's ok.
You were thinking about ditching on me, weren't you? - No, I - Yes, you were.
I saw it in your eyes.
Come on.
It's ok.
So you're a hairdresser in a skateboard shop.
I might need an explanation.
Don't really have one.
It's just what I do.
Ok! Have you always wanted to do that? Did you go to school for it? No, I just kinda picked it up on the way.
You're not giving me a lot to work with here.
You don't like answering questions, huh? Well, I don't either.
So go ahead, ask me something.
Why did you wanna meet me? I didn't.
My wife Carla made me.
At least you're honest.
When I saw you standing up there on the street when I saw you deciding if you were gonna ditch me I was thinking the exact same thing.
I bet you were.
Kind of like when I was little, right? Kind of sorta.
This needs to be taken in like this.
- That's a lot though.
- I don't like it.
Jenny, what did you wear when you got married.
- You were married? - Oh yes.
I wore a beautiful pair of black Converse with a great pair of rich tights with dirt on them.
A jeans skirt and then I wore this beautiful old ripped stained pink sweatshirt.
That's not exactly your wedding dress of your childhood dreams.
I didn't really have that childhood thing of you know, getting married.
You know that all little girls are supposed to have that kind of dream, right? Not little gay girls.
Oh, wow.
This has 'Jenny' written all over it.
That's beautiful.
Look at the beats.
When Tina and I were talking about getting married, We both wanted to have fabulous dresses.
How come you guys didn't get married? Tina thought it would be too conventional.
She didn't wanna cleave to the heterosexual paradigm.
Now it's cleaving all over her.
Oh God! Come back to us, Tina.
Come back on our site.
Fuck that.
They can have her.
I think you would look beautiful in your wedding dress.
Go on, Bette.
Try it on.
No thanks.
I mean, I knew I was gay since I was 12, but I don't know, I was just kinda dreaming of something like this.
I was working until I hurt my back.
Now I drive a truck for a beverage distributor.
How did you hurt your back? Thank you.
We have these long bags, you know? And we tend to hunch forward to slant our shoulders.
You always did as a kid.
I used to come watch you.
I'd see you on the playground at Church School.
You always looked so pissed off.
You never talked to me.
It wouldn't have been much good to you back then.
All I cared was getting high getting laid I'd probably still be doing it if my friend Chuck hadn't OD'ed.
I'm sorry.
As strong as I was, it really shakes you hard when you lose someone that's really close to you.
Yeah.
I I just lost a really close friend recently.
So Why don't you come home with me for dinner? It'd be a good time to meet Carla and Shay.
Shay? We almost called him Shane because I love the name so much.
I named you that, you know? She's been with Tina and Henry for the last two nights.
I don't know why I should have to share my time.
Because it would look bad in court if Tina tells the judge that you refused to fly on the same plane with her.
Her boyfriend is coming up on the weekend.
Why can't she just wait and go up with him? Joyce, I can't be in close corners with her.
I just can't.
Just be genial and civil, ok? Just do it for your kid.
But whatever you do, Bette, please don't cause a scene.
What if she brings up the custody plan? You don't tell her that we're going for sole custody.
We don't want her to know about that until we tell her.
I know.
- Ok? - Yeah.
I think I'm gonna take that job.
Excellent! That will play very well in court.
Dean of a prestigious art school And it can't hurt when it comes to pulling in chicks.
Excuse me? Lots of pretty young art students It'll be like a kid in a candy store.
God Joyce.
You're clearly unethical.
I would never do anything like that.
Excuse me, I'm so sorry, counselor - I need to talk to you.
It's important.
- What is the matter? - Let's just go.
- Excuse me.
Why do go in the bathroom? - What's that? - What do you think? That's a home pregnancy test.
Oh come on Kit, you're in menopause, you can't be pregnant.
Ah who says, huh? This is a home test.
I mean, they're totally unreliable.
You have to do more than one.
You can't do Fuck! That quantum futon chip is gonna blow everything else out of the water.
That's a method that is totally becoming a regular feature of my toolkit.
I wanna develop a program that navigates documentation for IT process best practises.
I like the way you think, Max.
Original thinkers are the most valuable pieces of manpower.
I've always been really interested in technological inovation.
Come talk to me, Max.
I already have the market texture.
Jenny? My wife places over too when I get going on this stuff.
Oh I'm sorry.
Do I appear a little spaced off? I think about all kinds of things when I'm out with these guys.
I think about my pedicure, my kid's homework, my charity auction.
I'm thinking about a story that I'm working on about how when I was 12, I used to masturbate like 20 times a day and I'm not sure whether I should make it like fiction or like a New Yorker style essay piece.
I don't know.
Dinner was phenomenal.
Thank you.
- Score! - Nice shot.
You got past my goal.
Good job, there you go.
I knew you were his daughter and it wasn't just because of the name.
It was the picture.
You have his genes.
His very strong genes.
I mean, look at all three of you.
Hey Shay, Shane has a skateboard shop.
You skateboard? I do.
We even have a halfpipe at the store.
Cool! Looks like you're doing real well there, I mean you have your own line of hair products and everything.
Shane for WAX.
I love that.
Oh thank you, that was my partner Chase's idea.
- Oh is he the boy of the Mohaw? - Yeah, that's him on the picture.
- Yeah.
- Are you two? - Oh, no no.
- Oh.
Come on.
Now finish your dinner or I'll take the game off the table.
I'm actually getting married next week.
Wow! That's wonderful! Gabe! You're getting married, wow.
Who knew? Not me.
Well, just because it took you 45 years to settle down, Gabe Everywhere we went Women just through themselves at him.
He didn't even have to do anything.
Nobody ever thought he'd settle down.
And look at me now.
Well, it looks pretty good.
It's great.
So what does he do, your guy? She's a DJ.
And her name is Carmen.
Well see, I told you.
I looked at your picture and I said I bet she's gay.
- She did.
She nailed that.
- Yeah.
Yes.
Ah, you won! My dad always lets me win.
So - Where are you getting married? - In Whistler.
- Canada.
- Yeah.
- I've heard you can do that there, yeah? - Yes, you can.
Justyeah Hey, we should go! I mean, it's so close.
We Honey, slow down.
We haven't exactly been invited.
Oh No, you're invited.
I'd like for you guys to be there.
Ifyou'd like.
I want to believe, my friends.
Believe me, I do.
'Cause my friend Shane is getting married this weekend.
And I wanna believe for Shane.
And I wanna believe for all of the rest of us who are flailing around in this abyss trying to feel what we're supposed to feel in order to connect in meaningful ways.
I wanna believe that real true connection among human beings is actually possible.
And supposedly marriage can access.
I mean, supposedly it improves our moral fiber and all.
Which begs the question Why do this crazy creepy defending-the-family crusaders think it's a bad thing for gays? Why can't they just wish us well? Hypocrites.
'Cause we're going to Canada, people, whether you like it or not to take our best shot at this connection.
And if we fail, it is not because we're less wholesome than you are.
Please, I mean you guys have been feeling this miserably since the beginning of recorded history.
And if we succeed, and our love connections actually flourish then there's a little less loneliness in the world.
And even I might start believe in miracles.
- Welcome to Fairmont Chateau Whistler.
- Thank you.
Hi.
Hello.
Wow, look at this place.
Here comes the bride.
Look at this.
Happy? This is amazing.
It's so nice you're here for the wedding, Peggy.
They're all dressed in the same clothes.
She didn't think they were coming though.
I think Helena might have had something to do with it.
Perdona me My baby getting married! Everybody, this is Carmen's friend Helena.
She's the one that phoned me and invited us all and paid for our plane tickets and our hotel rooms.
Thank you, Helena! It's my pleasure.
I guess it grows on trees.
You bought a dress? I need to check it.
I want to make sure that jewelry goes with it.
And look, we have Bebi to do your hair! Oh, Shane, Shane you're going to make such a handsome bride.
Oh, groom Thank you.
So handsome.
You are coming with us, we are going sighting at the Whistler village.
Not allowed to see her now until the wedding, ok? Ok.
- Bye.
- Bye.
Hey baby, sure you don't wanna come up? It's really fun.
Alright, I see you later.
Do you hate skiing also? I just hate all the bullshit that you have to go through with all the equipment.
Me too.
I don't do any leisure activities that require me to use more than one piece of equipment.
Except sex.
Sex isn't a leisure activity.
What is sex then? Sometimes it's a revelation.
Sometimes it's fun.
Sometimes it's scary.
Sometimes it's tepid.
Which is it with your friend? I'm interested.
I've never been with a transsexual.
That's a personal question.
I only ask questions that are personal.
Questions that can't be answered by a text book.
Besides, I'm writing an article.
About sex with a transsexual? Unfortunately no.
Just a very silly article for a very silly magazine.
Gay travel destination.
So I'd like to know what it's like here for you and Max.
Why is your article silly? Because I think every place should be a gay travel destination.
We limit ourselves with these stupid Labels.
Labels.
I guess Wilson wasn't ashamed of paying a black writer.
His entire life was the black experience.
And he never apologized, right? I don't wanna be labeled as a gay writer.
Why? Why? What are you afraid of? Ce n'est pas juste.
Pourquoi c'est pas juste? Parce que.
Because you didn't like labels.
You like that? Yeah.
Thank you, Buster the horse.
Thank you, Bably the horse.
We're almost back.
I was just gonna say.
How do you make the horses stop? You say 'Woa'.
That was incredible.
Did you see her face? I know, I know.
So sweet.
That was almost as good as her first step.
I wouldn't know.
You were in retreat.
I tried to call you.
Anyway, I think it was good that we are both here to see it.
Yeah, I'm glad I was here.
So, Shane.
Where is your lovely bride? Peggy, this is Shane's bachelor party.
Brides are excluded.
Oh my Goodness, I had no idea you were such role-playing lesbians.
No, we're not.
You know, actually I'd like for her to be here but her family is so traditional, so I stepped back.
I think that's nice.
I think that's regressive.
Well, we're pretty traditional in our family too.
Aren't we, Mommy? Oh look, Bette and Tina are here now.
Time for dinner.
Please, take my hand.
And let me bury my head in your ample bosom if I get a little too emotional.
You got quite an appetite there, girl? Better save some room for fondue.
I'm pregnant.
Yeah No fucking way.
No, don't do that! Stop it! I'm sorry, that was completely stupid.
Yeah Ok, ok Let me try this again, erm I don't know what you're planing, but it's certainly your decision completely and totally.
You got that right! Yeah ok, I just want you to know that I'm with you.
I'll support you in whatever decision you make.
Specifically, I'll take you to the doctor I'll hold your hand during the procedure and I'll drive you home and put you to bed with a hot water bubble.
Or, you know, if you decide to go through with it, I'll be your coach and I'll bust my ass to save enough money to put our kid through college.
Ok everybody, we would like to make a toast to our dear friend Shane.
Yes, Shane We have been through a lot together as friends.
Especially in the last few months.
Shane, the thing that you've taught us about friendship, is about being fearless.
So thank you very much, Shane, for convincing me to cut off my lustrous mink-like long mane as short as humanly possible.
And Shane? Thank you very much for not making it look like yours.
It's really grown back fast.
Yes, it has.
Shane, thank you as a friend, for saving me from going home with that girl that night.
You know the one I'm talking about.
And, as a friend, taking her home yourself instead.
Thank you.
Shane, only you could make a two piece ensemble look good.
- At 7.
30 in the morning.
- Drunk.
- After a one-night stand.
In all seriousness, you are our best friend.
Shane, you're the most loyal friend I and, I think I can speak for the group, that we have ever met.
And you've never left our sides when things have become dark.
And I think that you've taught the whole group that people are just beautiful.
And we know that, if Dana was here, that she would be very happy to know that you're marrying someone you love.
So, we love you, very much.
And congratulations.
To Shane! To Shane! Congratulations.
So my dear Shane, although I don't understand why you would embrace an institution that breeds conformity and restricts free will.
That said if you give one another children, I only hope that there is generous and kind lovely as the one my good-for-nothing Brit gave me.
What about that? Are you guys gonna have kids? Well, she's the one who brought it up.
You won't have kids.
You don't one, do you? Yeah, I think I do.
You do? Yeah.
I think you'd be a wonderful parent.
Yeah, and Carmen would be really beautiful pregnant.
What makes you think that Shane wouldn't carry the baby? Ah, woa woa I don't know about that.
I don't know if I go that far, but I think that in any event, I think kids are such a beautiful gift because I don't know, I mean, I look at that little one and that love that you have for her and the love that you actually have for each other despite the things you're going through.
I don't know, it just seems that sometimes love just doesn't last the way you hope it will, but if you get through that pain, it could last in ways that are more precious.
Maybe.
Possibly.
Wow I'm Alice, it's nice to meet you.
Anyway, Shane As your best man Is is my honor to present you the gift from your bride to be.
What? Yes.
What? So, this is a gift from Carmen to Shane with all her heart.
Come on, get up.
What is it? Come on! What the hell is this? Hey, congratulations, Shane, my name's God-des and this is She and Carmen wanted me to tell you something really important.
That there actually is a prescription to a happy marriage.
And this is it: Good evening class I would like to welcome you to Pussy Eating 101.

Move around your tongue like you're trying to curse.
'Cause there's nothing worse than a tongue that doesn't work .
Then your girl will be mad and you feel like a jerk.
Spread out your lips before you kiss.
You wanna make sure that you find the clit.
Lick a little bit then move it all around.
Lick it all over till you hear her make a sound.
Then you know that you found a good spot.
Tease it and touch it but not a lot.
With your mouth down south you're in control.
You can make it happen fast or slow.
Lick it, you better lick it right.
Touch it, better touch it right.
Kiss it, better kiss it right.
Do that pussy right.
Lick it, you better lick it right.
Touch it, better touch it right.
Kiss it, better kiss it right.
Do that pussy right.
Let your mouth do the talkin' and your tongue do the walkin'.
Work on your cardio there is no stoppin' Get through the pain if your jaw locks.
You gotta be a soldier and don't stop.
Lick her and finger her at the same time.
Feel around the G-spot.
Seek and you shall find.
Rub on the spot, lick on top.
You gotta be coordinated.
Show her what you got.
So once you got that down, put your other hand around.
You have to be blunt and not profound.
Put your wet pinky finger in Good night.
Good night.

Felt really good to be together and getting along.
And she really loved the sleigh ride.
So did I.
That's what I hope for us, Bette.
For our family.
I hope we can do family things together.
I think that's what would be best for Angelica.
And maybe one day, when we're ready we can take vacations together.
I'd really like that.
Good night.
Good night.
Hey Joyce, It's Bette Porter calling Listen, I'd I'm maybe having a change of heart.
I want you to hold off sending that letter to Tina's lawyer.
I'm not sure that I wanna go for sole custody.
I don't think it's in Angelica's best interest.
So Erm Anyway, call me when you get this message.
Thanks.
Can I come in? Yeah.
But I think we should talk.
What do you wanna talk about? What's happening between us? How you're feeling, how I'm feeling.
I don't wanna talk.
I don't wanna talk.
I love my present.
And I wish I could do exactly what they were talking.
You can't come in.
It's against the rules.
Come on Shane I hope that's Carmen.
You made it.
Of course we made it.
Oh my God! Gabrile McCutcheon, my wife Carla.
Hi.
Hi.
Very good to meet you.
Hi.
Thank you.
Welcome.
Thank you, wow.
I'm so glad that you guys made it.
Me too.
Honey, we should probably go to sleep, you know leave these two alone.
Yeah, I'm gonna go to bed too.
I think tomorrow is kind of a big day.
Let us get a drink.
Yeah, let's do it.
That guy is a total night-all.
Never goes to sleep before 2am.
Oh my God.
This one is the exact same way.
2am.
Right? Bye.
See you tomorrow.
So aren't you two gonna go skiing? Never skied and I don't figure today is the best day to start.
Well, you could take a private lesson.
Yeah, she's right.
And we've got private instructors for everyone.
I think Carmen and her sisters are up there.
Oh really? No, you go along.
We're just gonna hang out here.
Ok.
Ok, wellwhat should we do? Should we stay at Blackcomb or should we check out Whistler? Whistler has more snow.
Alright, let's go.
Bye.
Byebye.
You know, if there's anything you two need This whole wedding is like a gift to Shane from me, so Just talk to me, ok? Well, it's beautiful up here, isn't it? Hi, I'm Marylin.
You're gonna try it? I see my friends down there.
- The two boys on the snowboards? - Well, they're not boys.
Well, one of them is, sort of The other one, Shane, she's getting married tonight to her girlfriend, Carmen.
I think I'm marrying them.
What do you mean? Well, I'm a marriage commissioner.
I perform wedding ceremonies, mostly same sex couples.
Nice to meet you.
So I justI think it was too much for me, losing her twice.
Yeah, you're like Roxanne and Cyrano de Bergerac.
'In my life I've had but one love.
And now I must lose them twice.
' How is it that you're 56 years old and you've only slept with two women? I mean, when did you realize you were a dyke? Well, Alice, In 1973 I was married and living in Palo Alto, California.
I joined this women's consciousness reason group and there was this women, Teri Oh, she was so free, and in her sexual power.
I was wildly attracted to her.
So you guys got along? No, we kissed once and I guess I was too scared.
No, the first time I made love to a woman was about one year later.
- She was an heiress.
- An heiress? She hired my husband Chad to design her west coast corporate headquarters.
She was fabulous, so beautiful and arrogant.
- So you slept with your husband's boss? - Yeah.
- That's pretty bad girl.
- Yeah, we had a wild affair.
And then she broke my heart.
You know shuttled off to London, married some pennyless aristocrat.
And I went home to my stifling family life and been come out of the closet for another 15 years.
Hey, I have a proposition for you, Alice.
I'm just asking you to think about it, that's all.
No, not suggesting that Bette shouldn't be in Angelica's life.
I won't reneg It's an unrevocable decision, Tina.
If you allow Bette to legally adopt Angelica She'll be tied to you for the rest of your life.
That's what happens when two people have a baby and then they split up.
I gave her my promise.
- Because you feel guilty.
- Because it's the right thing to do.
What if you and I were to decide to get married.
I'd never be able to be Angelica's dad! If she already has another parent, I would be your husband, but I wouldn't legally be your daughter's father.
We're not there yet, Henry.
Bette is Angelica's rightful parent.
You have to understand and respect that.
Here it is, hot of the press! What is it? Is everything ok? Have you seen Alice today? - No, actually I'm worried about her.
- Yeah well, me too.
I know.
- Oh really? - Yeah.
Just as you two were settling to work things out.
It'll be alright.
Hello? Joyce, hi.
Yeah, I'm on a skilift, whats up? Shit! You're fucking kidding me.
Well, can you get it back? Fuck! Ok, tell him not to open it.
Then tell him not to send it to Tina.
Joyce? Shit! Shit, Shit, Shit! Fuck, I have to get off the line.
I've gotta go find Tina, shit! Damn it! What's the fastest way? Across this way is going to be the Black Diamond run.
But there's moguls.
Do you ski moguls? No, I cannot ski fucking moguls.
Hey Tina, it's Bette.
Listen, you're gonna get a letter from my lawyer today and I just want you to disregard it.
It was a mistake.
And I'm very very very sorry.
So just disregard it, ok? And call me when you get this.
Ok, bye.
Fuck.
Fuck!! Ok you're all ready to go.
You sure you've done this before? You don't fall into the abyss, Alice.
You take it on! Ok.
Face the abyss.
Embrace the abyss.
Ok, did you decide on what your thingle's gonna be? Yes, erm I vow that just because I'm 56 years old does not mean that my romantic life is over.
And after this wedding tonight I'm gonna stop marrying other people, and find someone to marry me.
- I like it.
I like that.
- Me too.
What about you? Ok, I vow to stop medicating myself with sex and drugs and let myself feel again.
And? And, yeah, erm I'll talk to Lara about how I feel and I'll ask her how she feels about me.
- Ok.
It's easy.
- Alright, let's do this thing.
I'm ready.
- I'll see you on the other side.
- You ready? - Ok, here I go, guys.
I'm gona.
Holy Shit!! Keep the change, pal.
Let's get out of here Come on.
Here we go.
Who is she? - Who is she? - What's your name, babe? - Patty.
- Her name is Patty.
This is Shane, my daughter.
Can you excuse us for a minute, babe? I'm sorry.
I'm not proud of this.
It's just who I am, ok? I know you know what I'm talking about.
the best meal of your life.
I think we know one another.
- Oh my God.
- 1974.
- Did you get my messages.
I've been looking for you all afternoon.
- Why? So you can take my daughter away from me? Tina, I didn't mean it that way.
I tried to stop it.
But I couldn't get a hold of my lawyer in time.
Oh, your lawyer.
Joyce Wishniak.
That's nice.
Please Tina, try to understand I think I understand everything I need to understand, Bette.
You'll lose everything.
Not even like a stand-on.
- Does he speak for you now? - No, he doesn't.
Henry, don't! - Please, believe me, Tina - Look, I've changed my mind, I don't want you to adopt my daughter.
Henry and I are thinking of starting a family and we want Angelica to be a full part of that.
Don't do this.
I'm warning you.
- Alice is giving Shane away.
- God.
Everyone, my name is Marilyn Sheppard.
I'm the wedding official.
I've just been in touch with Shane McCutcheon.
She doesn't expect you to forgive her She's not proud of this.
It's just who she is.
She wanted me to extend her deepest apologies to all of her friends.
She loves and cherishes you more than you could possibly know.
She apologizes to the Morales family and hopes that you might forgive her someday and maybe even understand.
I'm sorry.
I'm ok.
Take me home, mom.
Don't you want to look for her? Don't you want to know what I already know what happened.
I just want to go home and be with my family.
I wanna get really drunk and then I'm gonna dance and dance and dance.
Would you like to dance? You guys, it's a straight club, you're gonna make people feel uncomfortable.
Then they deserve to be uncomfortable, don't you think? No, I don't think anyone deserves to feel uncomfortable.
Max, I don't understand why you wanna be like these people? You seem so much more interesting as who you are.
How do you know who I am? You don't know who the fuck I am.
How do you know I'm not like these people? Max, you're great the way you are and the way you were.
You know what happens when you walk into this room? - What? - People will start watching you.
They're looking at you closely.
And at first they think you're one of them.
But then they look a little more closely and they begin to feel uneasy because they realize you're not.
You're always gonna be one of the others.
You're like us.
You don't know that.
I'm gonna dance.
- I haven't done this since I was like - Ouch! 14 and it was awful because my little sister was really good at it and I just always ended up making big giant knots.
- I didn't know you had a little sister.
- Yeah, I do, and 3 brothers.
- You do? - That's a big family.
- I know.
I'm really glad that we'reyou knowfinally - Alice - What? What? I need to tell you something.
Hey you two, what are you doing sitting out here? We're just playing.
Trying to get over the debacle of the evening.
Yeah, what a night, huh? - Yeah.
- Poor Carmen.
What do you think happened? Well, Shane's father found 10.
000 dollars, left his wife and ran off with some flizzie.
- What? - Yeah.
Where did Shane's dad get 10.
000 dollars? I don't know.
Oh my God! Is that what happened? Well, he has no money.
He wanted to buy her a wedding gift.
It was heartbreaking.
- Misses Peabody, would there be anything else? - No, no, I'm fine.
I'll be there in a minute.
My darling, I have cherished the time we've spent together.
It has reaffirmed all of my recent convictions.
Now, because I love you so very much.
I'm going to do something truly radical.
- Mommy, he told me, he was going to buy her a gift.
- Sweerheart.
Sweetheart I'm cutting you off financially.
From this moment forth, you are going to have to make relationships with people who love you for yourself.
- Not your money.
- You are not serious? This is gonna turn your life around, darling.
You're such a wonderful girl, such a beautiful girl.
You have such a surprisingly kind heart.
You need to know that people love you even if you're pennyless.
It was wonderful to meet you, Helena.
I look forward to getting to know you better.
Thank you.
Thank you my dear.

She looked like a little girl.
It's crazy.
