The total is 77.83.
So I give you the card.
Here. Oh, and I do this.
Um...
And then you have to sign it.
- Thank you. Have a nice day. - Thanks, guys.
- What do I do with this? - I'll take it.
So do you like living in this neighbourhood?
I don't know. It's OK.
You don't mind that there are a lot of homos and stuff around?
- What? - Don't get me wrong, they seem pretty cool
but aren't they always checking out your boyfriend and stuff?
No.
Customer.
- Oh, my God. - Page me if you need me.
I wanna see you check me out.
OK.
I'm... sorry about last night.
I should've...
I shouldn't have left like that.
I feel really, really silly
and I think I freaked out.
Not because it was it was a gay bar,
but because I had absolutely no idea what I was doing there.
OK, the total is 54.05.
I hope they overpay their employees
as much as they overcharge their customers.
Do you wanna come to my reading group? It's one week from Monday.
I don't know.
I have to check with Tim.
There you go.
Um... Marina.
Is your reading group a gay group?
No.
There are straight people.
You look cute with the little apron on.
Oh. Yes.
OK. I'm sorry.
We get together once a month. Five couples, $50's our limit.
Jenny and I belonged to a game in Chicago.
She's not a very good cheater.
I am not a cheater.
I am not a cheater. Tim likes to say that I'm a cheater
because Tim is always losing.
Come on, that's not true. Not never, anyway.
Once I went out up three whole dollars.
You should come tomorrow night.
We can always make room for another couple.
Cool. What time do you guys start?
Um, I can't. I have that book club thing.
Call and cancel. This will be fun. Maybe we can become regular...
- I committed. - So uncommit.
- What's the big deal? - 'Cause, um...
It's only once a month and I've been looking forward to it.
- God, you really want me to cancel? - No.
Go on.
Uh, we won't be able to make it.
- Just keep us in mind, though. - Sure, man.
Hey.
I thought you were hanging the show.
Annie's got it under control.
I thought we could spend the evening together.
I need exercise.
I'm feeling a little tense.
Fine.
I guess I shoulda called first.
Yeah.
I can't believe that Carolyn See is in the group.
I know. Great mind. Such a turn-on.
I'm so happy that I came. I feel very inspired tonight.
Good. That's what it's all about.
Maybe next time you'll read one of yours.
- No! - Why not?
- Because... - You don't have to do anything you don't want.
Tina.
What are you doing here?
I'm just exorcising some demons.
- You look really good. - I do?
Yeah. You're getting great definition right here.
Your latissimus dorsi, really starting to pop.
- Are you getting a good stretch in your hips? - I gotta go.
Um...
Bette came home just to be with me.
I don't know what I was thinking.
Tina.
I'm starting to see some private clients very selectively.
- Let me know if you're interested. - Yeah!
I will.
- Good night. - Good night. I had a really great time.
Good. I'm glad.
Have sweet dreams.
Look, if you wanna go back to Dan Foxworthy, that's fine.
I'll make an appointment. Tell me when you're free.
Just make the appointment and tell me when it is.
Tomorrow at 3.15.
I was gonna see him by myself but I'd rather you come with me.
To Jenny being in LA.
Cheers.
I'm so glad you're here.
I missed you a lot.
I've missed you too.
- Aren't they cute? - Mm. Adorable.
All right, all right. Let's order.
Are you guys still fighting?
Just grill it. My wife doesn't think I need all that breading.
You don't. He doesn't. You're getting a paunch.
Oh!
Hey, look who's here!
- Hi. - Man.
That girl is so hot. She doesn't look gay.
- Randy! - What?
- Marina's not gay, is she? - No idea.
If she is, she's with that blonde with the cute haircut.
You think she's cute?
I didn't say I wanted to sleep with her.
I like the one who looks like a rock star.
If I had to be with a woman, she'd be my type.
I have to use the bathroom.
- Wine's not bad. - It's nice.
What are you doing here?
- The same thing you're doing, I imagine. - Well, I'm finding it very distracting.
Do you?
I'd like to see you again.
Stop it.
I have to go.
Hey. Stopped at The Planet and got you a coffee.
"She drifted across the expanse, lifted the first veil... "
I'm sorry.
What's going on?
I'm just a little tense.
You go off to school every day and have your whole deal worked out.
Um...
I'm not quite sure what I'm doing in LA.
I thought you were doing well.
I mean, you're writing.
You're working, a job that you wanted.
You even made some friends.
I just feel like it's kind of a little scary right now.
I'm feeling a bit, um, overwhelmed.
Don't take it out on me.
- I'm not the enemy. - I know.
I know.
You couldn't be more supportive of me.
You wanna get that?
Hello.
Hi.
Uh, yeah. How are you?
Oh, OK.
Yes, no problem.
OK.
Bye.
Um, that was... That was Marina.
We're gonna have dinner on Saturday night.
We don't have plans, do we? If we do, I can reschedule.
No, go ahead. It's fine.
We were just gonna get together and talk about the book club.
I should call her back
and say that you and I need to spend some time together.
Jenny, I have that basketball game
with the department head Saturday night.
Go, have dinner with Marina. That's fine.
OK.
Thank you.
She said she was coming.
It was kinda last minute, though.
- You think she might not be showing up? - I don't know.
Maybe we should spend a little time talking about you.
I'm sorry I'm late, but I have a really good excuse.
So don't make this easy on me.
- I have found the perfect donor. - Who?
Marcus Allenwood. He's an artist
just selected for the next Whitney Biennial.
- We had a serious conversation. - But I've never met him.
No, but I know what we're looking for. He's perfect...
He has a kid, so can get someone pregnant.
I never met him.
You will meet him tomorrow.
He's coming by the house at 11 and you're taking him to the cryobank.
He's leaving the next day for Cologne. He's in a group show.
Tee, he's willing to do this for us
to have the sperm on ice for when you're next ovulating.
It'll be there when we wanna use it.
- M... Marcus? - Tina, right?
Um...
I have to get something out of the bedroom, and, uh... have a seat.
- And then we'll go to the cryobank. - OK.
Fuck.
Ready?
Tina, did Bette not tell you I was black?
No, not at all.
But... she didn't not tell me because it doesn't matter either way.
- Right? - I can't answer that.
No.
- Um, OK. Are you ready to go? - Let's do it.
Hi.
I'm Tina Kennard and I'm here with my friend.
He's here to make a deposit.
- Marcus, right? - That's right.
- It says here you've been HIV-tested. - I have my paperwork.
Here's all you need.
The bathroom is down the hall.
There are magazines if you need any encouragement.
I'll be right back.
Wow. That's a pretty serious decision to make.
- Isn't it? - You must have given it a lot of thought.
'Cause really big men like that tend to make really big babies.
You'd probably be looking at a C-section.
Hi.
- What's up? - Hey.
She's, uh... she's in the back.
- Bye. - Bye. See ya.
See you later.
Bye.
What's going on?
What are you doing here?
I got this vague but urgent message from Alice.
Great.
You put me in a fucking awkward position.
How could you not tell me Marcus is black?
God. I... I don't know. I guess I should have.
I didn't think it would be a problem to use a black donor.
But... I didn't say I didn't want a black donor.
I just think we should have discussed it.
We absolutely discussed it, Tina.
In the beginning, we said if you were the birth mother,
we should consider finding an African-American donor.
That way the child would be more like our child.
But I wasn't prepared.
I don't understand. Other than...
being committed to spending the rest of your life with me,
what more do you need to do to prepare?
Look at me, Bette.
I don't feel qualified to be the mother of a child
who's half African-American.
I don't know what it means to be black.
I can contribute in that department.
Don't you think on top of everything else,
to also have two moms,
that is a lot of otherness to put on one child?
Your reaction to Marcus Allenwood, however honest it might have been,
comes across to Bette like a rejection of her identity.
I love Bette.
I love who she is. I...
- I wasn't ready for how I'd react. - You know what that says to me?
That we're not ready to have children?
"Because Sarah Shuster came down
and now she reviles you like you revile your own craving."
What do you think?
You scare me sometimes.
I see you going right to that edge.
And I think I've lost you.
And then you come back...
I know why you have to disappear on me like that.
I'm so fucking proud to have you in my life.
I'm so proud to have you in my life.
Do you know that?
There was something I wanted to get this afternoon before my game.
I'm gonna go do that.
Mm, I don't know.
What time does Milk start?
Why don't you just ask Dana to go?
You guys are just gonna have to work that out.
Well, I'm sure Shane's gonna be there.
Yeah, why not?
Of course she is.
Oh, really?
- Hold on. Where are you going? - I don't know.
Doesn't the programme start at 7.30?
Yep. You don't have to come. Go out with Alice and Shane if you want.
Shit. You know what, I can't go.
Bette's giving an art talk at the CAC.
Yeah. No. All right.
Have fun. Bye.
She's not looking at a black or white woman,
but looking at the woman she loves.
- She sees what she wants to see. - Or what you let her see.
Maybe this wasn't important before,
maybe what's worked best for you all these years,
getting all your pretty things, putting together your pretty life,
is letting people see what they want.
- What are you trying to say? - Nothing.
Just... maybe it's been easier for you that way.
That's nice.
That's really nice.
Don't walk out! Oh, come on, girl, don't walk outta here.
I really don't need this right now.
- We gotta stop doing this. - We?
OK, I gotta stop doing it.
I'm the one that ran away. But don't do that.
Hear me out, because I'm not gonna say what you think I'm gonna say.
There's... only one thing that cuts across all our realities.
It's love. The bridge between all our differences.
And you have so much love in your life.
Why are you trying to turn on that bridge?
Why?
I don't know.
- So you called Shane, right? - I thought you did.
I told you to call her.
I swear you said you were calling her. She'll be here.
How do we draw the line
that signifies whether an image reads as pornography?
Who gets to say what passes as art
and what as obscenity?
The debate is taken up by Laurie Papou
in a series of paintings, A Group Of Seven.
Please welcome Laurie.
Laurie, to what extent is this body of work to be read as a narrative?
She's awesome, your girlfriend.
- It's always meant to be a narrative. - She is, isn't she?
Sometimes I forget.
You two are a really beautiful couple.
I mean that.
You're really beautiful.
It's in my subconscious.
Why is it so depressing?
It's the same faces night after night, week after week,
floating clubs, floating girls.
Oh.
She's cute.
She's been with two of my exes.
Staying out of that vicious cycle.
- It's amazing. - This is where I come when I can't stand it.
Sometimes when I can't sleep I...
... lie down here and watch the sun rise.
This is vulgar, I know,
but the two of you are so fucking sexy.
No offence.
Uh, it's hard to take offence at that.
Can I get you anything to drink?
- I'm good, thanks. - No, thanks. I'm fine.
All right.
- Is he... ? - He's hitting on us.
He is.
God, that hasn't happened in a while.
I have a thought.
- It might be crazy. - What?
I know you're ovulating.
Do you think he's attractive?
- Is he a good artist? - Who cares?
- What about Dan Foxworthy? - Fuck Dan Foxworthy.
It's our life. We don't need his permission
to do what we think is right.
- And you're OK with this? - I wanna have a baby with you.
If we make it together, that's enough for me to know it's our baby.
- OK. Yeah? - Yeah?
- You're sure? - Yeah.
She looks like she's been around the block a few times.
What's wrong with that?
Ooh, ooh, ooh. Now, she's cute.
I haven't seen her before. Is it possible?
- Fresh meat. - New blood.
Cris-py.
Uh-uh.
Just look at me, OK?
Tina, why don't you make Bette wet?
It'd be nice if you made love to Tina while I'm making love to you.
It's not gonna happen that way.
How is it gonna happen?
I think you should make love to Tina
while Tina makes love to me.
OK. That's cool.
Why don't you two... lie down?
What's that?
- What? - In your hand?
It's a condom. Otherwise known as a rubber.
What are you doing with it?
Some would say I'm being considerate.
We don't want you to use it.
- Why? - You don't have to.
We just don't, OK?
Man.
That's great.
Why do dykes only want sex with a guy to steal his sperm?
It ain't happening, guys.
- Bye, guys. - See ya.
- I'll give you a call later. - Yeah.
Want to come to my place?
Oh, please! I am not that desperate.
Fuck you, Alice. Neither am I.
Dana, I just don't wanna be one of those people
who sleeps with their friends.
- Neither do I. - Right, well, let's not have sex.
- No, never. - OK?
That was really... crazy.
No, I thought it was a genius plan.
You did?
Yeah.
Were you turned on by him?
No.
This is you.
Jenny, is that you?
I'm coming.
OK.
You smell different.
What is it?
Um...
It's a new perfume.
I like the old one better.
OK, all right. Let's do you. Come here.
It'll be fun.
- I haven't put you on it. - This is ridiculous.
I only slept with two girls.
And I swear if you repeat that I will have to kill you.
Don't worry. Your reputation as a stud is safe with me.
- OK. - OK.
So...
- Oh, God! - OK. Name names.
OK, the counsellor at tennis camp when I was 15.
- Which you know about. - Mm-hm. Name?
- She's famous. I can't tell you her name. - Oh, God.
Ralph, I'll call her Ralph.
Now, second name.
- Melanie. - Mel... ?
I knew it! I always...
- I told you about that. - No, you didn't, but OK.
Let's see how many people it takes...
to link you and me.
- Whatever. That's impossible. - Mm. OK.
- Melanie slept with Heather. - OK.
Heather slept with Brooke.
- Heather slept with Brooke? - Yes. Brooke slept with Nina.
- And I slept with Nina. - Wow, yeah.
So... four. That is how many people it takes to link us.
- OK. So you and Tina... - Well, that's easy.
- One. - OK.
- Bette. - OK.
Ooh, ooh! I have a good one. Here.
Check it out.
Really good. Now, she...
- She leads us straight back to Shane. - Oh, God.
Shane can have us here all night.
It's like this whole crazy, tiny, little world.
Mm. Crazy, yes.
But not tiny.
I'm so lucky to have you.
Come here.
Jen?
Jen, you awake?
Oh, my God.
Jen?
Breakfast is ready.
- Hey. - Hey!
What are you doing up this early?
- Going home. - From?
- Never mind. - Yeah.
You totally just got laid, didn't you?
You see, that gives me hope.
'Cause I love knowing that two people who've been together so long
can still make each other that happy.
Yeah.
Anyway, have a good morning.
OK, I'm gonna go.
OK. Bye, guys.
You be good.
I'm gonna try. See ya.
