WHAT ABOUT ME WHAT?

DESCRIBE YOUR DAD. ONE WORD.

DYING.

THE BOARD WOULD SUPPORT A TEMPORARY LEAVE OF ABSENCE.

WHAT ABOUT THE ALLEN BARNES RETROSPECTIVE?

WELL, WE HAVE LEO.

TOWARDS THE END,

IT'LL GET VERY CONFUSING AND FRIGHTENING,

AND NOT JUST FOR THE PATIENT.

MAMA?

MAMA.

DADDY, SHH...

MAMA.

IS THIS BETTE PORTER'S BABY?

OUR BABY.

HELENA, I'M TIRED.

I JUST WANT TO GO HOME, BE ALONE.

YOU WON'T BE ALONE, BUT YOU'LL STILL GET LONELY.

I WAS WONDERING WHEN I WOULD SEE YOU IN HERE.

YOU HAVEN'T COME IN FOR DINNER.

OH, MY GOD.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO GET PERMISSION FROM ME

TO GO OUT TO DINNER WITH YOUR EX.

YOU GUYS SHOULD BE FRIENDS.

WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT IS A SECOND DINNER.

KIT!

DADDY?

[SOBBING]

DID JENNY INVITE YOU?

HAVE YOU SEEN HER?

[CHEERING]

[♪♪♪]

[CAR ALARM BLARING IN DISTANCE]

[DANCE MUSIC THROBBING INSIDE CLUB]

HEY.

HEY, LADY.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE, LADY?

I CAME TO SEE YOU.

WHAT DID YOU THINK?

YOU WERE GOOD.

NO, I WASN'T. I SUCKED.

HERE.

IT DOESN'T MATTER IF I'M GOOD.

BUT WHY... WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?

BECAUSE, WHEN I'M IN THERE,

IT'S MY FUCKING CHOICE WHEN I TAKE OFF MY TOP,

WHEN I WANT TO SHOW MY BREASTS,

AND IT'S MY FUCKING CHOICE

WHEN I TAKE OFF MY PANTS AND I SHOW MY PUSSY,

AND THEN I STOP WHEN I WANT TO STOP,

AND IT MAKES ME FEEL GOOD BECAUSE I'M IN CHARGE,

AND IT HELPS ME REMEMBER

ALL THIS CHILDHOOD SHIT THAT HAPPENS TO ME.

YOU KNOW, AND I HAVE TO.

IT'S IMPORTANT.

DO YOU REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU AS A CHILD?

THAT MAKES YOU NOT WANT TO...

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

NO, SERIOUSLY. NO, NO, NO. JUST HEAR ME OUT.

DO YOU REMEMBER THE SHIT THAT HAPPENED TO YOU AS A CHILD

THAT MAKES YOU NOT WANT TO TRUST PEOPLE AS AN ADULT?

YEAH, I PROBABLY DO.

WELL, THEN, YOU'RE FUCKING LUCKY.

I DON'T KNOW HOW THAT MAKES ME SO LUCKY.

BECAUSE YOU CAN GET ON WITH YOUR FUCKING LIFE,

AND YOU'RE NOT DOGGED DOWN

BY THESE HORRIBLE, OPPRESSIVE CHILDHOOD MEMORIES,

AND YOU KNOW, YOU STAND A CHANCE

OF BEING A NORMAL, PRODUCTIVE PERSON.

WELL, DO YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU?

I DON'T KNOW.

YOU KNOW, LIKE, I REMEMBER THINGS,

AND THEN, LIKE, I THINK, "IS THIS TRUE?

DID THIS STUFF REALLY HAPPEN, OR AM I MAKING IT UP?"

BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, THE OLDER I GET,

THINGS, THE MEMORY SORT OF BECOMES A LITTLE BLURRY,

AND THEN IT'S LIKE...

I DON'T KNOW, BUT...

YOU JUST DON'T KNOW THE TRUTH ANYMORE.

ALL RIGHT, I GET THAT,

BUT YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO IT WITH THAT.

I KNOW.

WHAT IS THIS?

I KNOW I DON'T.

JUST KNOW THAT...

I'M JUST SAYING

YOU DON'T HAVE TO.

YOU HAVE ME.

YOU HAVE OTHER PEOPLE.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THIS ALONE.

I KNOW. NO, I KNOW.

I KNOW I'M NOT ALONE, BUT I WANT TO.

JUST BE CAREFUL.

I KNOW.

ALL RIGHT.

LET'S GO HOME.

NO, I'M GOING TO... TAKE THE BUS.

PROMISE YOU'RE GOING TO BE SAFE?

I'M GOING TO SEE YOU AT HOME.

[♪♪♪]

I GOT THE BIRTHING TANK,

BUT IT'S THE ONE THAT YOU HAVE TO PUT TOGETHER.

I KNOW THEY HAVE SOME

WHERE ALL YOU HAVE TO DO

IS PUMP IT UP.

HELLO, GIRLS.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

TINA, I NEED TO TALK TO YOU FOR A MOMENT.

DO YOU MIND?

YES, I DO, ACTUALLY.

TINA...

I NEED YOU TO HAVE LUNCH WITH ME TODAY.

MY MOTHER'S IN TOWN.

HOW DID YOU KNOW WE WERE HERE?

WHAT, ARE YOU STALKING US?

FOR YOUR INFORMATION,

JAMES TOLD ME WHERE YOU WOULD BE.

HE SAID YOU HAD A DOCTOR'S APPOINTMENT,

FOLLOWED BY A TOUR OF THE MATERNITY UNIT.

I THOUGHT YOU WERE HAVING YOUR BABY AT HOME.

I'M HAVING A FINAL CHECK-UP,

AND IF EVERYTHING LOOKS GOOD,

I'M HAVING THE BABY AT HOME.

I DON'T BELIEVE JAMES TOLD YOU THAT.

JAMES KNOWS NOT TO GIVE OUT MY SCHEDULE.

WHAT JAMES KNOWS

IS THAT HE WANTS TO KEEP HIS JOB.

HE SEEMED TO HAVE

RELATIVELY FEW QUALMS ABOUT IT.

SO, WE'RE HAVING LUNCH

AT LA TERAZZA.

SHE'S REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO MEETING YOU.

WHAT TIME DOES THIS TOUR FINISH?

I'M NOT HAVING LUNCH WITH YOU,

AND I DON'T LIKE THIS.

WE HAVE A DOCTOR'S APPOINTMENT RIGHT NOW,

SO EXCUSE US.

TINA...

IT'S IMPORTANT, AND I'D REALLY APPRECIATE IT.

WHY DON'T YOU ASK

ONE OF YOUR OTHER GIRLFRIENDS?

THAT WAS UNCALLED FOR.

I'M SORRY.

MOTHER'S HEARD A LOT ABOUT YOU.

SHE'S LOOKING FORWARD TO MEETING YOU.

YOU'RE ONE OF THE FEW PEOPLE WHO CAN HOLD YOUR OWN WITH HER.

EVERYONE ELSE JUST FAWNS ALL OVER HER.

IT'S TEDIOUS.

NOT AS TEDIOUS AS THIS IS BECOMING.

WE'RE GOING INSIDE NOW.

FINE.

I'LL MAKE SURE THEY TAKE GOOD CARE

OF YOU IN THERE.

WHAT?

[GRUNTING, PANTING]

YES.

COME ON. I'M KICKING YOUR ASS.

I'M NOT SURE I WANT IT THIS BAD.

YES, YOU DO.

YOU WANT TO WIN THIS TOURNAMENT.

YOU WANT TO GO OUT A WINNER.

WHY CAN'T I JUST BE A SECOND-RATE TENNIS PLAYER

WHO'S MORE FAMOUS FOR BEING A LESBIAN?

THAT'S OKAY WITH ME, REALLY. IT'S FINE.

BULLSHIT. I KNOW.

[HONK]

HI.

HEY.

WHAT'S UP?

HEY.

AL...

I FOUND THEM IN THE HALLWAY.

I THOUGHT MAYBE YOU FORGOT THEM.

GO AHEAD. PUT THEM ON.

UM, YOU DIDN'T SAY GOODBYE THIS MORNING.

I WOKE UP, I DIDN'T KNOW WHERE YOU WERE.

YOU KNEW I WAS TRAINING.

I KNOW, BUT YOU COULD HAVE WOKEN ME UP, OR SAID...

OR LEFT ME A NOTE, OR...

I MEAN, NOT LIKE I'M NEEDY.

I DON'T NEED YOU TO WRITE ME A NOTE,

I JUST, UH...

YEAH, I WAS JUST MENTIONING IT. ANYWAY, SO...

I'M SORRY I DIDN'T LEAVE YOU A NOTE.

ALL RIGHT, WELL, LUCIA AND I NEED TO...

GET HER IN SHAPE.

YOU DON'T WANT MAURESMO MAKING HER

LOOK LIKE A PUSSY.

I THINK AFTER YOU, LUCIA,

MAURESMO'S GOING TO LOOK LIKE A PUSSY.

ALL RIGHT, UM, SEE YOU AT THE PLANET?

HUH?

I CAN GET YOU A SMOOTHIE OR SOMETHING.

YOU KNOW IT'S GOING TO BE, LIKE, AT LEAST AN HOUR.

OH. I'LL BE WAITING.

OKAY.

DON'T I GET A KISS FOR BRINGING YOUR GLOVES?

I MEAN, COME ON.

YEAH.

THANK YOU.

WATCH YOURSELF.

BYE.

OKAY.

SHE REALLY LOVES ME, YOU KNOW.

OH, IS THAT WHAT THAT IS?

COME ON. GET YOUR ASS UP THERE.

COME ON. GO, GO. GO, GO, GO, GO, GO!

[SIGHING]

RIGHT THIS MINUTE,

I'M HATING BEING A LESBIAN.

WELL, I KNOW SOME LESBIANS THAT ARE REALLY GOOD

AT PUTTING THINGS TOGETHER.

LIKE CARPENTERS?

SORRY. THAT WAS A THROWBACK.

WELL, MAYBE DAVINA CAN DO IT.

SHE SAYS THAT SHE MAKES A HOME VISIT

ABOUT TWO DAYS BEFORE THE BABY'S BORN.

NO, I'M JUST GOING TO DO IT AS A MATTER OF PRIDE.

SO, HAS KIT HEARD FROM HER SON?

MM. DAVID'S FLYING IN TONIGHT.

UNCLE LEROY IS TOO WEAK TO TRAVEL,

BUT AUNT BECCA'S GOING TO COME WITH ALL MY COUSINS

TO THE MEMORIAL,

AND MRS. STOUT,

AND DADDY'S NURSE, FIONA.

WHAT ABOUT BENJAMIN?

KIT DOESN'T WANT HIM TO.

SHE'S AFRAID IF SHE SEES HIM, SHE'LL LOSE HER RESOLVE.

POOR KIT.

SHE'S COMPLETELY THROWN HERSELF

INTO THIS MEMORIAL.

SO, THAT'S... A BIRTHING TANK.

BETTE.

I'M HAVING A HOME BIRTH.

I THINK IT'S GREAT

THAT DR. WILSON THINKS IT'S SAFE.

I MEAN, THE BABY'S HEALTHY, AND YOU'RE IN GREAT SHAPE.

WHAT I MEANT IS, I'M HAVING A HOME BIRTH,

AND I WANT TO HAVE IT IN MY HOME.

YOU MEAN YOU WANT TO GIVE BIRTH IN YOUR APARTMENT?

NO.

ARE YOU SURE,

BECAUSE I'VE GOT EVERYTHING

SO WELL-ORGANIZED, AND I JUST THINK THAT...

NO.

I WANT...

[VOICE BREAKING] TO MOVE BACK INTO OUR HOUSE,

AND I WANT TO HAVE OUR BABY IN OUR HOME.

I WANT ALL OF US TO HAVE A HOME TOGETHER.

HELENA, COME. JOIN US, DEAR.

HEY!

HOW ARE YOU?

HELLO, HELENA.

SEE YOU LATER.

HELENA.

STOP.

COME BACK.

SIT DOWN.

COME AND SIT DOWN.

DON'T BE A PETULANT CHILD.

THERE WE GO.

WHAT ARE THEY DOING HERE?

AREN'T YOU HAPPY TO SEE US, MUMMY?

[HELENA]: OF COURSE I AM, SWEETHEART.

PEGGY CALLED ME AND INVITED ME TO LUNCH,

AND I WAS THRILLED TO HEAR FROM HER.

I WANTED TO SEE MY GRANDCHILDREN,

AND I, APPARENTLY, HAVE MISSED A BIRTHDAY.

YOU COULD HAVE CALLED ME.

I WANTED TO SEE WINNIE, TOO.

I HEAR THINGS ARE GETTING UGLY

BETWEEN THE TWO OF YOU.

I WON'T HAVE THAT, HELENA.

YOU WON'T HAVE IT?

EVERYTHING YOU DO REFLECTS ON ME.

PLEASE TRY TO REMEMBER THAT.

AFTER VLADIMIR, MUMMY,

I DON'T REALLY THINK THE STANDARD WAS ALL THAT HIGH.

HIS NAME WAS DRAGOMIR, DARLING,

AND HE WAS NEVER MEANT TO BE A STANDARD BEARER.

YOUR MOTHER IS ACTUALLY

INCREDIBLY GENEROUS, HELENA.

YOU SHOULD TRY SEEING HER

THE WAY THE REST OF THE WORLD SEES HER.

AND YOU SHOULD TRY SEEING HER THE WAY HER CHILDREN SAW HER...

OR RATHER, NEVER SAW HER.

CAN I GET YOU SOMETHING?

HAVE A BELLINI, DARLING.

WE ALL ARE THEM.

DO PLEASE LEAVE

THE "POOR DAMAGED CHILD" NONSENSE

FOR YOUR PSYCHIATRIST.

NOT THE ONE WHO'S SUING YOU,

THE ONE WHO'S STILL TAKING YOUR PHONE CALLS.

[SNICKERS]

I'LL HAVE A BLOODY MARY, THANK YOU,

WITH AN EXTRA SHOT.

OH, I LOVE THESE LITTLE LAMBY THINGS.

DON'T YOU?

THEY LOVE YOU TOO, PEGGY.

OH, CHRIST.

THEY WERE SO EXCITED

WHEN I TOLD THEM WE WERE HAVING LUNCH

WITH DAMA TEH TEH.

I'M NOT ABOUT TO LOSE THEM, HELENA,

SO I'VE MADE A PROPOSITION TO WINNIE.

YOU PROPOSITIONED EVERYONE ELSE.

YOU MAY AS WELL PROPOSITION MY EX.

WINNIE IS GOING TO HAVE THE CO-OP ON GRAMERCY PARK.

MY PRECIOUS LITTLE SQUIRRELYKINS

ARE GOING TO LIVE IN THE MANNER

TO WHICH THEY'VE BECOME ACCUSTOMED,

AND THEY'RE GOING TO BE ABLE

TO SEE THEIR DAMA TEH TEH ANYTIME THEY WANT.

YEAH. OKAY.

WHAT'S GLORIA STEINEM DOING HERE?

[STEINEM]: YOUR FATHER WAS A GREAT MAN.

THANKS.

I'M GLORIA.

I WAS A FRIEND OF YOUR FATHER'S.

MY FATHER TALKED ABOUT YOU A LOT.

[♪♪♪]

THANKS.

HI.

HEY.

EVERYTHING LOOKS BEAUTIFUL.

YOU'VE DONE SUCH A WONDERFUL JOB.

KIT'S SO LUCKY TO HAVE YOU.

I'M LUCKY. I LOVE MY JOB.

AND YOU'RE GOOD AT IT, SO...

AND YOU LOOK GOOD DOING IT.

WE'RE NOT GOING TO GO THERE.

NO. NO.

NO, WE'RE DEFINITELY NOT GOING TO GO THERE.

BUT YOU'RE VERY CUTE.

AW, SHUT UP.

[♪♪♪]

I... I GOT TO GO.

OKAY. BYE.

BYE.

SORRY. EXCUSE ME.

HI.

HEY. WHAT'S UP?

NOTHING, YOU KNOW, JUST TALKING TO LARA.

ABOUT WHAT A NICE JOB SHE'S DOING, SO...

THIS IS KIND OF OUT OF THE BLUE,

BUT, UM...

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT MOVING IN WITH ME?

MM-HMM.

REALLY?

WHAT?

BECAUSE I KIND OF FEEL LIKE MAYBE WE'RE...

WAIT. ARE YOU SERIOUS?

YEAH.

AL, I DON'T KNOW.

YOU DON'T KNOW?

YOU'RE HAVING DOUBTS ABOUT US?

NO.

OH, MY G... NO.

IF ANYTHING, IT'S THE OPPOSITE.

THINGS ARE GOING SO GOOD RIGHT NOW.

DO YOU WANT TO SEE OTHER PEOPLE? BECAUSE...

WHAT?

ALICE, WHERE DID YOU GET THAT FROM WHAT I JUST SAID?

OKAY.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR COMING.

IT WAS REALLY KIND OF YOU.

IT WAS A BEAUTIFUL MEMORIAL.

HE CERTAINLY WAS WELL-LOVED.

YOU REALLY HONORED HIM, BETTE.

THANK YOU.

I'D LIKE TO TAKE THE REST OF THE WEEK OFF

TO SORT THROUGH HIS AFFAIRS,

BUT I'LL BE IN THE OFFICE ON MONDAY.

I'M COMPLETELY UP TO SPEED.

MM-HMM.

IS THERE SOMETHING WRONG?

UM...

NOW'S NOT THE TIME, BETTE.

COME AND SEE ME ON MONDAY.

IF YOU HAVE SOMETHING TO TELL ME,

I WOULD RATHER YOU TOLD ME NOW.

IS IT THE ALLEN BARNES EXHIBIT?

UH, BETTE, UM...

IN YOUR ABSENCE, UH...

LEO HAS BEEN DOING A...

A VERY, VERY GOOD JOB OF FILLING YOUR SHOES.

UH, SO GOOD, IN FACT,

THAT WE'VE DECIDED TO KEEP HIM ON.

AS MY COEQUAL?

UM...

UH... BETTE, THE BOARD HAS DECIDED

TO BUY OUT YOUR CONTRACT.

ARE YOU FIRING ME, FRANKLIN?

BECAUSE I HAVE A BABY ON THE WAY.

THE SETTLEMENT IS GOING TO GIVE YOU

A NICE LITTLE CUSHION,

AND TIME FOR YOU TO FIGURE OUT WHAT YOU MIGHT WANT TO DO NEXT.

I'LL TELL YOU WHAT I'D LIKE TO DO NEXT.

I'D LIKE TO FUCKING MURDER SOMEBODY.

YOU, MAYBE.

OR YOUR FRIEND HELENA PEABODY.

THAT'S NICE.

THAT'S A REALLY... NICE THING

TO DO TO SOMEONE WHILE THEIR FATHER'S DYING.

YOU'RE A CLASS ACT, FRANKLIN.

WELL, WE CALL IT "THE GLORIA PROJECT,"

AND WE'RE COLLECTING AND TAPING

ALL OF HER WORDS AND WORKS.

IT WOULD BE GREAT

IF YOU COULD VIDEOTAPE TONIGHT.

OH, YEAH, WELL,

I MEAN, FOR A FREE TICKET,

I'D BE TOTALLY INTO IT.

WELL, THERE YOU GO, THEN.

8:00 AT THE WILTERN.

WE'RE PLAYING,

KINNIE STARR, AND HEART IS HEADLINING.

AWESOME.

COOL. SEE YOU TONIGHT.

LOOK, GLORIA,

I'VE BEEN BEGGING YOU FOR 15 YEARS

TO SLEEP WITH ME,

AND IT'S BECAUSE I CARE ABOUT YOU AND I LOVE YOU.

I DON'T WANT YOU TO MISS OUT,

AND I KNOW, I KNOW...

NOT EVERY FEMINIST IS A LESBIAN.

'CAUSE I HAVEN'T SLEPT WITH A WOMAN

AND I AM DEFINITELY A FEMINIST.

DITTO FOR ME.

BUT, YOU KNOW,

WE'RE IN A COUNTRY

WHERE ALL FEMINISTS ARE LESBIANS, RIGHT?

AND THEY THINK THAT ALL FEMINISTS

ARE MAN-HATERS, SO, NATURALLY,

THEY'RE LESBIANS, RIGHT?

IT'S REALLY BANANAS, BECAUSE,

IN MY EXPERIENCE,

IT'S THE WOMEN WHO LIVE WITH MEN WHO HATE MEN.

[LAUGHTER]

THE LESBIANS CAN KIND OF TAKE IT

OR LEAVE IT ALONE.

THEY'RE FRIENDS WITH MEN, RIGHT?

ANOTHER BIG MISCONCEPTION

IS THAT IF YOU'RE A LESBIAN,

YOU'RE AUTOMATICALLY A FEMINIST,

WHEREAS A LOT OF GAY WOMEN THAT I KNOW

ARE ABSOLUTELY NOT FEMINISTS, RIGHT?

THAT'S FOR SURE.

WELL, I LIKE WOMEN.

OKAY, BUT YOU HAVE TO ADMIT THAT THAT'S WHAT GUYS SAY.

"I LOVE WOMEN."

YEAH.

CAN I JUST SAY,

SPEAKING AS SOMEONE WHO SOMETIMES LIKES

THE YOU-KNOW-WHAT...

"YOU-KNOW-WHAT" MEANS...

SEX WITH MEN, RIGHT?

YEAH, I DIDN'T WANT TO OFFEND YOU,

BUT I LIKE THE PENIS.

NO, NO, NO.

YOU DON'T OFFEND ME.

I LIKE SEX WITH MEN TOO.

LET'S JUST SAY THAT I'M PREDISPOSED.

I BET A LOT OF YOU ARE PREDISPOSED, RIGHT?

PREDISPOSED.

RIGHT HERE!

100%.

AS FAR BACK AS I CAN REMEMBER, YEAH, ME TOO.

NOT ME.

I FOLLOW THE HEART, NOT THE ANATOMY.

IT'S ALWAYS SO COMPLICATED,

ISN'T IT?

SOME PEOPLE HAVE A CHOICE,

AND SOME PEOPLE DON'T ABOUT THIS THING, RIGHT?

MM.

RIGHT.

YOU KNOW WHAT? TO CHOICE.

RIGHT. TO CHOICE.

YES.

CHEERS.

CHEERS.

AND TO MELVIN.

AND TO MELVIN.

TO MELVIN.

[♪♪♪]

[SHANE]: YEAH. THIS SHOULD BE COOL.

IT'S A BENEFIT FOR THE MS. FOUNDATION.

GLORIA STEINEM IS HOSTING IT.

AWESOME. THANKS FOR INVITING ME.

ALL RIGHT.

HOLD ON.

WHAT'S THIS?

OKAY.

THANK YOU.

IS IT OKAY?

NO, NO. I'VE GOT IT.

OH. WOW.

SURE. I DON'T KNOW.

I'M JUST NOT USED TO BEING TREATED

LIKE SUCH A GIRL, I GUESS, SO...

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT,

"TREATED LIKE A GIRL?"

NO, I THOUGHT I'D TREAT YOU.

OH. OKAY. RIGHT.

I GET THE DIFFERENCE.

ARE WE READY?

YEAH.

[♪♪♪]

YOU EVER GET A GIRL PREGNANT?

NO. HAVE YOU?

I THINK YOU'D LOOK AMAZING PREGNANT.

MAYBE WE SHOULD HAVE A BABY TOGETHER.

YOU REALLY ARE

THE FUCKING SCOURGE OF THE UNIVERSE, AREN'T YOU?

HELLO, LEIGH.

IT'S NICE TO SEE YOU.

I'M SORRY.

ARE YOU TALKING TO ME?

I DON'T KNOW.

DID YOU EVER EVEN CARE ABOUT TINA?

YOU WOULDN'T HAVE DONE WHAT YOU DID TO ME,

BECAUSE IT AFFECTS HER TOO.

DID YOU EVEN STOP TO THINK ABOUT THAT?

YOU'RE UNDER A MISAPPREHENSION

IF YOU THINK I HAD ANYTHING TO DO WITH THAT.

THAT'S BULLSHIT.

[LEIGH]: WHAT ARE YOU TWO TALKING ABOUT?

HELLO.

WHY, BETTE PORTER.

PEGGY PEABODY.

ARE YOU HERE BY YOURSELF TONIGHT?

BECAUSE I'M SORT OF FEELING A BIT OF A GOOSEBERRY

BETWEEN THESE TWO HORNY LOVEBIRDS.

ACTUALLY, I'M HERE WITH MY PARTNER, TINA.

AH, TINA.

TINA...

DIDN'T YOU JUST HAVE A TINA?

OR IS THAT THE NEW POPULAR NAME

FOR LESBIANS?

ACTUALLY, MUMMY,

IT'S, UM, IT'S THE SAME TINA.

OH, DEAR.

DID ANYONE HAPPEN TO SEE

THE SURREALIST SHOW AT THE MET A FEW YEARS AGO?

DESIRE UNBOUND.

IT WAS BRILLIANT.

BRILLIANTLY CURATED.

THE MAN RAYS WERE COMPLETELY BRILLIANT.

FUCK BRILLIANT.

I'M TALKING ABOUT HOW THOSE PEOPLE FUCKED.

THOSE SURREALISTS CERTAINLY FUCKED A LOT,

AND IT'S VERY WELL DOCUMENTED.

ELUARD THE POET WAS WITH THE BEAUTEOUS GALA,

AND THEN GALA SLIPPED OFF AND SEDUCED MAX ERNST,

WHO THOUGHT HE WAS VERY MUCH IN LOVE WITH LOUISE

AT THE TIME.

THEN GALA ENDED UP WITH DALI,

AND THAT LEFT ELUARD AND LOUISE

TO SHARE ANOTHER WOMAN,

THE VERY STRANGE DENISE LEVY,

WHO WAS BEING COURTED,

AND BOINKED, I BELIEVE, AT THE TIME BY...

BRETON.

BRETON, YES, AND BOINKED BY PERET,

AND BLABBITY-BLABBITY-BLAH.

WELL, AT LEAST THEY WROTE FABULOUS, TORTURED,

SICK LOVE POEMS TO ONE ANOTHER.

YES, MUMMY, 'CAUSE THAT...

THAT ABSOLUTELY REDEEMED THEM.

WELL, YOU KNOW,

ALL THAT FUCKING, WITH NO ART

IS REALLY RATHER DREARY.

I HOPE YOU GIRLS

WRITE FABULOUS, SICK, NEUROTIC,

TORTURED LOVE POEMS TO ONE ANOTHER.

I'M ACTUALLY WORKING ON SEVERAL RIGHT NOW.

SEND ME ONE, WOULD YOU, BETTE?

HEY, BETTE?

HELLO.

I'M SO SORRY TO INTERRUPT.

TINA'S STILL IN THE BATHROOM,

AND, UM, I THINK SHE NEEDS YOUR HELP.

EXCUSE ME, PEGGY.

YES.

BABY, ARE YOU OKAY?

I THINK MY WATER JUST BROKE.

OH, MY GOD.

[PHONE RINGING]

[BEEP]

HI, DAVINA. IT'S BETTE PORTER.

I AM IN THE BATHROOM OF THE WILTERN THEATER

WITH TINA AND A HUGE PUDDLE OF WATER.

[GROANING]

KIT, KIT, KIT.

HI.

HEY.

HOW ARE YOU? GOOD, GIRL.

GOOD. OKAY, UM,

BETTE WANTED ME TO TELL YOU

THAT SHE AND TINA HAVE TO LEAVE,

AND THAT EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE OKAY.

WELL, WHAT HAPPENED?

TINA'S WATER BROKE.

OH, MY... OH, MY GOD!

OH, MY GOD. COME ON, WE'VE GOT TO GO.

WHOA, WHOA, WHOA.

MOM, MOM, MOM, SIT DOWN.

THEY'VE PROBABLY GOT HOURS TO GO.

YEAH, YEAH, YEAH.

PLUS SHE SAID THAT SHE WANTS YOU TO STAY,

AND SHE WANTS YOU TO ENJOY THE CONCERT,

AND... AND THAT SHE'S GOING TO CALL YOU

AS SOON AS SHE CAN.

OKAY?

OKAY.

OH, CONGRATULATIONS!

[M.C.]: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,

WELCOME TO A SPECIAL EVENING OF MUSIC AND PERFORMANCE

TO BENEFIT THE MS. FOUNDATION FOR WOMEN.

PLEASE WELCOME THIS EVENING'S HOST,

GLORIA STEINEM.

REMEMBER WHEN EMMA GOLDMAN SAID,

"IF THERE'S NO DANCING AT THE REVOLUTION,

I'M NOT COMING?"

WELL, TONIGHT WE HAVE BOTH.

THANKS TO BETTY, THANKS TO HEART,

WE HAVE THE MUSIC,

AND THANKS TO ALL OF YOU, WE HAVE THE REVOLUTION,

AND WE ARE GOING TO NEED IT,

BECAUSE THERE IS A GUY IN THE WHITE HOUSE...

[BOOING]

WHO REPRESENTS ALL THOSE RELIGIOUS EXTREMISTS

THAT PEOPLE CAME TO THIS COUNTRY TO ESCAPE.

WHOO!

BUT THAT'S BECAUSE THERE'S A BACKLASH

AGAINST ALL THE GREAT SOCIAL JUSTICE MOVEMENTS,

AND IF WE HADN'T HAD A FRONTLASH,

WE WOULDN'T NOW BE HAVING A BACKLASH.

SO WE'RE JUST GOING TO KEEP GOING

AND DO IT MORE AND BETTER.

WE'RE GOING TO NOT ONLY VOTE, BUT REFORM THE WAY WE VOTE.

WE'RE GOING TO CONTRIBUTE NOT ONLY WHEN WE'RE ASKED,

BUT EVERY TIME WE PAY OUR BILLS.

WE'RE NOT ONLY GOING TO CHANGE WOMEN

TO FIT THE WORLD,

BUT CHANGE THE WORLD TO FIT WOMEN,

AND WE ARE GOING TO BECOME

THE CHANGE WE WANT TO SEE IN THE WORLD.

SO, FIRST TONIGHT, THEN THE WORLD.

[TINA GROANING]

OW. I DON'T THINK I CAN TAKE ANY MORE OF THIS.

YES, YOU CAN. IT'S GOING TO BE FINE.

I'M RIGHT HERE,

AND DAVINA'S HERE NOW TOO, OKAY?

YOU MIGHT WANT TO THINK ABOUT

GETTING IN THE TUB, TINA.

COME ON. I'VE GOT YOU.

CAN YOU GET IN?

OKAY.

I'VE GOT YOU.

[GROANING]

THERE YOU GO. LET ME GET THIS.

I JUST HAVE TO SAY YOU MADE ME FEEL TERRIBLE.

I'M SORRY.

YOU MADE ME FEEL SO BAD.

WELL, I'VE SAID I'M SORRY.

I WAS JUST TELLING YOU HOW I FEEL.

IT'S NOT LIKE IT'S YOUR FAULT.

IT'S JUST, I MEAN,

MAYBE I'M MAKING MYSELF FEEL BAD,

BUT I'M TURNING INTO SOMEONE I CAN'T STAND.

WHO? YOUR MOTHER?

FUCK YOU.

I'M SORRY. AL, AL...

ALICE, COME HERE. LOOK, I'M SORRY, OKAY?

THAT WAS NOT EVEN CLOSE TO FUNNY.

I'M SORRY.

LOOK, I DIDN'T EVEN...

I DIDN'T KNOW I WAS TURNING INTO SOMEONE

WHO WAS ALL SMOTHERY AND NEEDY AND CODEPENDENT.

I MEAN, GROSS.

I CAN'T THINK OF ANYTHING WORSE.

MAYBE I SHOULDN'T HAVE SAID ANYTHING.

NO, I'M GLAD YOU SAID SOMETHING.

LOOK, I MEAN, THINGS HAVE GOTTEN

SUPER INTENSE BETWEEN US SUPER FAST, AND I...

I'VE NEVER FELT THIS WAY.

I DON'T KNOW.

IT'S... IT'S MAKING ME ACT WEIRD.

I THINK IT'S GOOD.

IT'S NOT IF I GET TOO ATTACHED TO IT.

WHAT? WHY?

WELL, I FEEL LIKE...

I FEEL LIKE THAT GUY WITH THE MOUSE,

AND YOU KNOW, HE LOVES THE MOUSE,

AND HE HOLDS... YOU KNOW...

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

HE, LIKE, LOVES THE MOUSE SO MUCH...

OH, THE... YEAH. YEAH.

RIGHT. I DON'T WANT TO BE LIKE THAT.

WELL, THEN DON'T. DON'T.

DON'T BE LENNY.

DON'T SMOTHER THE MOUSE.

JUST LET IT BREATHE, ALICE.

AND THE WORST THING IS,

I CAN'T EVEN CALL MY BEST FRIEND

AND TALK TO HER ABOUT IT.

I KNOW.

BETTE, YOU CAN PUT YOUR FINGERS THERE

TO SEE IF YOU CAN FEEL ANYTHING.

OH, MY GOD. I FEEL SOMETHING.

LET'S TAKE A LOOK.

EASY. COME ON.

OKAY.

JUST EASE RIGHT OUT.

THE BABY'S HEAD IS RIGHT THERE.

SHE'S GETTING READY TO JOIN US.

THIS SHOULD PROBABLY BREATHE.

[SETS WINE BOTTLE DOWN]

I'M GOING TO GO.

OKAY? BYE.

NO.

I DON'T WANT YOU TO GO.

I MISS THE WAY YOU SMELL.

[♪♪♪]

LET'S ROLL HER ONTO HER SIDE

TO TAKE SOME PRESSURE OFF THE NECK.

COME ON, ROLL OVER. COME ON.

YOU CAN DO IT.

YEAH. THERE YOU GO.

OH...

WHAT IS THAT?

THAT'S MECONIUM.

IT MEANS THAT THE BABY IS IN SOME DISTRESS.

I'M GOING TO HAVE TO RECOMMEND

WE MOVE THIS TO THE HOSPITAL.

TINA, I KNOW THIS IS NOT WHAT YOU WANT,

BUT FOR THE BABY'S SAFETY, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO GO.

[♪♪♪]

I LOVE YOU.

MM?

[BUS APPROACHING]

[♪♪♪]

HER FEVER IS RISING.

CAN YOU GIVE HER SOMETHING TO BRING HER FEVER DOWN?

WE'VE GOT EVERYTHING UNDER CONTROL, OKAY?

DON'T WORRY.

BABY, I'M RIGHT HERE. IT'S GOING TO BE OKAY.

I PROMISE. I PROMISE. I SWEAR TO GOD.

IT'S GOING TO BE OKAY.

CAN YOU HURRY UP?

CUTTING AT 0600, LOWER END RETRACTOR.

IT WASN'T SUPPOSED TO BE THIS WAY.

I FAILED YOU BOTH. I'M SORRY.

YOU DIDN'T FAIL ANYBODY.

YOU'RE AMAZING. YOU'RE AMAZING.

I'M SORRY.

SHE'S ALMOST HERE. IT'S OKAY.

I'M SORRY.

SHE'S ALMOST HERE. SHE'S ALMOST HERE.

AND THERE SHE IS.

[INFANT CRYING]

WAIT. I WANT TO CUT THE CORD.

IT'S NOT ALLOWED IN THE OPERATING ROOM

BECAUSE OF STERILIZATION.

IN THE O.R., THE CORD HAS TO BE CUT

BY A MEMBER OF THE SURGICAL TEAM.

I WANT TO CUT THE CORD.

GO AHEAD. LET HER CUT THE CORD.

[INFANT CRYING]

I'M GOING TO CUT THE CORD NOW.

OH, MY GOD, T.

ANGELICA.

WHAT, BABY?

THAT'S WHAT I WANT TO NAME HER. ANGELICA.

LOSING BLOOD PRESSURE.

[BETTE]: TINA?

TINA!

MOTHER'S TEMP IS 105.

GET THE BABY TO SPECIAL CARE

FOR OBSERVATION, AND GET HER CULTURED.

SHE MIGHT HAVE AN INFECTION,

AND LET'S GET THE MOTHER STITCHED UP

AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE

AND OVER TO I.C.U.

YEAH, I GOT YOUR MESSAGE, AND... AND... I DON'T KNOW.

I'M SPEECHLESS. I CAN'T BELIEVE IT.

YEAH, NO, WE'RE... WE'RE... WE'RE LEAVING.

WE'LL BE THERE IN, LIKE, 20 MINUTES,

SO DON'T GO ANYWHERE, OKAY?

ALL RIGHT, TELL BETTE AND TINA WE'LL BE THERE SOON.

ALL RIGHT. ALL RIGHT. SEE YOU THERE. BYE.

[GROANING, SOBBING]

JENNY?

[SOBBING]

HOLD ON. JEN?

JENNY!

LET GO.

IT'S ALL RIGHT, JENNY.

HONEY. JENNY...

[SOBBING]

ALL RIGHT.

[SOBBING]

WE'RE GOING TO GET YOU HELP.

WE'LL GET YOU HELP, OKAY?

I NEED HELP...

DON'T I?

I'M REALLY FUCKED UP.

[SNIFFLES]

WE'LL GET YOU HELP.

ALL RIGHT?

OKAY.

I THINK I'LL LEAVE IT TO STOP THE BLEEDING.

OH, FUCK.

OH... FUCK.

WANT TO HEAR SOME GOOD NEWS?

WHAT?

WHAT?

TINA HAD HER BABY.

SHE DID?

MM-HMM.

NO.

MM-HMM.

ARE YOU SERIOUS?

SHE HAD HER LITTLE BABY GIRL.

OH, MY GOD.

IS SHE OKAY?

MM-HMM.

THAT'S BEAUTIFUL.

THAT'S GREAT.

OH, MY GOD.

COME HERE.

THEY KEPT US OUTSIDE UNTIL VISITING HOURS.

[GASPING]: OH... MY GOODNESS.

WHERE'S TINA?

SHE'S STILL IN RECOVERY.

IS SHE OKAY?

YEAH, SHE'S GOING TO BE FINE.

YEAH, I'M JUST WAITING FOR THEM TO BRING HER DOWN HERE

SO SHE CAN SEE HER BABY.

SHE HASN'T EVEN MET OUR BABY YET.

THIS IS ANGELICA.

HI, ANGELICA.

OH... OH.

OH, HI, SWEETIE.

OH... MM.

[KISSES ANGELICA]

OH, MY GOODNESS.

YOU WANT TO HOLD HER?

[ANGELICA COOING SOFTLY]

[ANGELICA CRIES]

HI, LITTLE ONE.

YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFUL.

[FUSSES]

YOU HAVE TINY FEET.

OH, ANGELICA.

OH, SWEETIE, YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE

A VERY, VERY INTERESTING LIFE,

YOU KNOW THAT?

BECAUSE WE ARE SOME VERY, VERY INTERESTING PEOPLE.

OKAY...

THIS IS YOUR FAMILY.
