The
C.A.C. Bette is bitchy because Candace
has called five times. Well, and maybe just because
she's kind of good at being bitchy.
Jenny's
job What, you thought Jenny's job
was annoying people and preying on hapless fools?
Yes, but apparently she's also waiting tables. She's
just getting started when Robin shows up to see if
Jenny's okay. But of course Jenny hasn't heard about
Marina. Robin actually knows the real story
which is that Marina was indeed at the Bel-Air, in
the presidential suite, with three bottles of pills
(is this a game of Clue?) and Robin knows this
because Marina had Robin's number in her purse, so
that's the number that "they" called. Robin
says that when she got to the hospital, Marina was
calling Jenny's name.
No,
no: she wasn't calling Jenny's name because she wanted
her. She was explaining what made her want to off
herself.
Tiresome
Tonya Guess what kinds of gifts Tonya
wants to register for? Really expensive ones. Surprise.
As she and Dana window-shop, Dana's phone rings. It's
Alice, calling from her knitting circle (ha ha). They
pretend they're talking to other people so that nobody
will suspect anything, and arrange to meet the next
day.
One
of the other knitters is not sure Alice knows what
she's doing:
Knitter:
"Dear, I don't think you're going to be
able to get anybody's head through that thing."
Alice: "You know, though,
I think this would make a really good harness for
a strap-on dildo."
Alice!
I have lots of yarn at my house.
Kit
sets the table and lays down the law
Bette is moping. Kit says she should try to pretend
to be human, as in using plates and napkins rather
than eating directly out of the takeout container.
Kit:
"Lemme talk to Tina."
Bette: "What would you
say?"
Kit: "That my sister is
a pooty-chasing dog who deserves to be tied down
and whupped upside the head, but it doesn't change
the fact that she loves you more than she loves
her own life, and that you should finish punishing
her and get back to figuring out how to live with
one another for the next 50 years or more."
Bette: "You could give
it a try."
Then,
because that's all too painful, they talk about Kit's
loan so she can buy The Planet. Bette's willing
to cosign, but she doesn't have the 50K for the down
payment. So Kit says Ivan can get it, but Bette says
that's a bad idea. Kit says it's typical of Bette
to "diss her solution." Bette doesn't want
Ivan to get the idea that it's a broader invitation,
but of course Kit thinks she just might want to make
that invitation.
Bette:
"You're straight."
Kit: "Who says?"
Bette: "You're not?"
Kit: "I am. But I don't
need you to tell me that, and neither does Ivan.
The way I see it, Ivan is the one who gets to say
whether he's a man or a woman. And he's been telling
me he's more of a man."
Bette: "That's delusional
thinking. It doesn't work that way."
Kit: "Maybe in the World
According to Bette. But the World According to Bette
doesn't have the same props it once did. You know
what I'm sayin, baby sis?"
Word!
Yeah! Kit! Wooooo!
