Previously on the l word
Well, at least the two of them
are getting along.
How'd that happen?
We have adele
to thank for that.
Max thinks that there's something
really suspicious about you.
I'm letting it be known,
Mr.
Brewer,
that you're a ***.
What's the difference
between you outing him
And the military
outing me?
- Don't get too personal.
- Oh, please.
How do you say "***"?
And who says that
to who?
Well, last night
she said it to me.
How could you
let a student
Stand in front of your class
With a gun
pointed to his head?
You want to take
all of our life together
And just throw it
in the toilet.
I don't want to settle down.
Are you already
seeing somebody?
I told camilla
that i had to talk to you
Before
we did anything.
Where's dawn?
I hope you don't mind,
But i just wanted you
all to myself.
It's on, girlfriend.
And your
stupid-*** planet?
It's done.
It's *** on.
We-- We just got
caught up in a moment.
It's just not
going to happen again.
It must be difficult
for you
To have your life
and relationships examined.
What the *** can she
possibly know about my life?
What can she know?
Pee, pee, pee
pee pee.
You're not going to shoot
the pee stream, are you?
I might,
So just keep on going.
I'm ovulating.
Oh, my god,
i'm ovulating!
Honey!
Bev, come here!
Where do i
enter from?
Um, where
your mark is.
How exciting,
you're ovulating.
Okay, so then
i look at the stick,
And i kiss her
Yeah.
Okay, i'm fine
with all that, um,
But then it says that i "f" her
against the sink.
I just i'm not really
sure what that means.
Really?
Okay, well, that's why
we're rehearsing,
To work out all this stuff.
Can you hold my cup?
Sure.
Okay, so this is what
i want you to do.
Can i just be you?
Okay, so you are
going to look at her,
And you're going
to take her,
And you're going to throw her
up again the sink-- Bam!
And you're
going to look--
Look at her with passion,
And then you're--Don't worry,
i won't kiss you--
You're going to take her,
And you're going to
kiss her with tongue
And then i want you
to reach down,
And then i want you
to finger-*** her
And give her
the best *** oasm ever.
Go for it.
Oh, you mean
with my hand?
Yeah.
Unless you have some other apparati
that i don't know about.
How exciting,
you're ovulating.
I'm ovulating.
Let's make a baby.
Passion!
That's okay.
Okay.
Wow, it looks like you guys
are sort of doing, like, a dance.
You won't be able
to see my hand.
I'd like to.
It might be nice if you look like
you're actually giving her pleasure
Rather than moving furniture.
Okay.
You know
That looks
It looks like you're sewing up
a hole in her jeans.
Yeah i don't really know
what i'm supposed to be doing.
Neither do i.
Step away!
Move away from her.
Just step away
from each other.
Adele, can you,
uh, schedule time for me
And the other actresses
that have sex scenes?
You guys really don't
know how to *** women, do you?
You guys are going to learn
how to ***.
I'm getting a lesbian
sex coach to teach you.
Oh, please.
That would be great.
The.
L.
Word.
S05e06
Shane, shane, shane.
What can we do for you?
I'd love to talk
to you two.
If you don't mind.
My girlfriend and i
are listening.
Good.
Well, then do you
want to grab a table?
No.
Okay.
Um
I came here to apologize.
I didn't mean
any disrespect,
Not towards you
or to your relationship.
I apologize.
And i'm sorry for the way
i treated you
When you came into my house.
I was just a little
I wasn't me that night.
So i'd like to make peace.
And if there's anything i can do
to even the playing field,i
Well
There's just one thing
i can think of.
Okay.
Jenny schecter.
She's your roommate, right?
My best friend
and my roommate.
Why?
Well
Come closer.
I won't bite.
Get her to use shebar as a location
in her big hollywood *** movie.
I don't know, dawn,
that's
Well, what?
You're too
small-Time, shane?
Just a lil' ol'
hairdresser?
??I never said i was big-Time
to begin with, did i?
No.
All right.
I'll ask her.
I can't promise you,
but i'll ask her.
You know,
you make that happen,
We might be
talking detente.
Okay.
All right.
- See you.
- Okay.
Oh! Oh
There's just, uh,
one more thing.
I knew there would be
with you.
It has to be called
shebar in the movie.
Not the "pluto cafe,"
Or whatever the stupid
thing was called
That's supposed to be
the planet.
What?
Shebar is such
a better location.
I can't believe they were
going to pay $50,000 a day
For that wanna-Be "peach pit"
of a ***.
You're too much.
I can't do it.
What?
What can't you do, shane?
Other than make
my girlfriend come?
Listen, i didn't realize that's
what you wanted.
I can't do it.
Of course that's
what we want.
Kit's my friend, man.
You have problems with me,
you stay with me,
You don't *** over
my friend,
And i'm sure not going to
*** 'em over for you.
So pointless.
Now i'm just going to have to
put your friend out of business
The old-Fashioned way.
Is that
is that a threat?
Are you still talking?
Are you still here?
Oh, that's another threat.
Done.
It's so on!
You're ***.
- Shane, shane
- What?
Call me.
There'all your stuff.
I'll get the suitcase
back to you.
Did you want to come in
and see if i forgot anything?
I trust you.
That's ***.
You don't trust me.
I trust you.
We're just not good
for each other.
I'm really sorry
That i *** your life up.
I was gay
long before i ever met you.
Anyway, um, brown--
He had it in
for me, so
I'm sure he would have
found something.
So, i heard you got offered some
big,what,talk show or something?
What is it?
The look?
Nah, they're just interested.
I still have to audition.
They're looking for a replacement
for kelly corrigan.
Wow, that's great.
I don't know if i'm
going to do it, though,
If i want to be, you know,
the replacement ***.
Oh, come on
No, you know,
because they want me to be out
And flamboyant and audacious,
And, you know,
it's on national television.
I don't know if i want to
be gay for the whole world.
This is why we're not good
for each other.
Why would you think twice
about something like this?
It's like a dream come true
for you.
You don't know
what i dream of.
You're right.
I'm going to go.
Can i come in?
Hey.
Kit and angie,they're not going to be back
from anaheim for a couple of hours.
I came early.
I hope
you don't mind.
Yeah, it's fine.
Are you having
a dinner party or something?
No,
it's just for angie.
I wanted to feed her
before you got here.
I told kit not to let her eat
a lot of crap at disneyland.
Yeah, right.
That looks fancy.
What are you making?
Ah, it's just
Stir-Fried chicken
and vegetablesnoodles.
It smells amazing.
Did jodi teach you how to cook?
I hear she's a great cook.
Uh, actually, no.
I taught myself.
I sometimes cook for me and angie
when we're alone.
It makes me feel like we're,
you know,like a family.
I enjoy it.
I'll have to cook
for you sometime.
Bette
Turn around.
Look, i know that
you don't want to hurt jodi
No, i don't.
- What are we doing?
- Shh.
Oh, wait.
Don't.
Spread your legs.
Are you talking dirty to me?
You're so wet.
I just want to
*** you.
???
Thank you very much.
So, jenny, we have
one more possibility
For bev and nina's house.
It's in kits.
Well, where in
the *** is she?
Well, i don't really care
that it's a saturday.
Can you tell her that i'm working
on saturday because of her?
Yeah, well, i want you to
give her a messageor me.
Okay?
I want you to tell her
that it's not going to work.
All right?
Vancouver doesn't pass as l.
A.
And i'm not
going to shoot here
In this waterlogged,
provincial little city,
And it was a complete waste
of my time to come here
When i should have been
back in l.
A.
Prepping for my first day
of shooting on monday,
- All right?
- If you want
Jenny, actually,
There's been
lots of shows
That have shot up here
successfully,
So if you want to take
a look at the location--
Can you please
also tell her
That i don't appreciate
Her sending her
studio-***-Narc to spy on me
And tell me
that black is white?
Okay?
Right.
I'll have you know that i have
absolutely nothing to gain
By convincing you
to shoot in vancouver.
Good, because i'm not.
And when the studio
pulls the plug on your movie
Because you're over-Budget,
I'll have another job
tomorrow.
Can you please
open up the door?
Hey!
I don't--
I want you to know
That i do not think that
you should be in this industry.
Okay?
I don't think
That you know how to
deal with artists.
Jenny, jenny, jenny!
William just texted you back.
- What?
- Okay, listen.
"What is this
vancouver folly?
Of course, we're shooting
l.
A.
For l.
A.
I just secured a bond,
financing's in place.
Aaron knows.
See you on set monday morning.
Xoxo, william.
"
That's right, sally!
I am so excited!
I am so happy.
When did i text him?
I don't remember doing that.
I feel like
i'm going crazy.
Okay--
When did i text him?
Listen, i hope you don't mind,
but i just
I took the liberty.
What do you mean?
Because i saw
how unhappy you were--
and so i texted him myself.
I think that we need
to celebrate.
Okay,all right.
What do you
want to do?
That's what i want to do.
And the next thing
i'm going to do
Is take you shopping.
You are
so beautiful, okay?
And i can see
That you're hiding
behind those glasses
If i may be so bold,
i just
We have so much to do.
We start shooting on monday,
And you have to approve
the costume breakdown.
You've got to finish
shot-Listing,
- There's tons--
- You know what?
I want to take you shopping.
- Sally?
- Jenny.
I have a job for you.
I want you to take us
to a place
Where fashionable
vancouverites shop,
'Cause we're going to transform
my lovely assistant.
Joyce is here
to see you.
Send her right in, please.
Hello, phyllis.
Joyce.
I know it was presumptuous
of me to call you,
And i'm not really
expecting too much sympathy
I was just
wondering-- Um
Maybe you could give me
some advice,make a recommendation--
I think we hit back
with a countersuit.
Leonard needs to know that
you're not going to just roll over
And gift him with everything you've
worked so hard for all these years.
I mean, he's got balls
i'll give him that.
And his attorney,
joey monahan?
He's no slouch either.
So, luckily for you, i've got
a trick or two of my own.
You want to represent me?
Phyllis, you hired me
to represent you,
And then you fired me
so we could make sweet lov
And then
you broke my heart.
So, the way i seit,
You're down a lawyer,
i'm down a job.
Joyce, i didn't actually
expect you to represent me.
I was hoping for a recommendation,
for somebody else--
Phyllis,i'm the best
in the business.
I win cases,
it's what i do
And i got a bum deal here,
So i'm not going to walk away
from a sweet piece of business
Just because
we didn't work out as lovers.
In fact
I think you kind of owe me
this one.
Oh, good lord.
Can i help you
find something?
Um yeah,
i was-- You know,
I was wondering
if you have anything
In the lower
price ranges?
Which range did you
have in mind?
- Like 25 to 30?
- Excuse me?
Oh, she's kidding.
- Hello.
- Hello.
Adele, this is emile,
our personal shopper.
This is adele,
my assistant.
- Emile--
- Shall i?
Yes, please start a room.
And you, come here,
I want to show you
some chanel.
I don't know
Do you like it?
Yeah, but what about
the fancy shoes?
You could wear the shoes.
??
It's so expensive!
Adele, really,
The thing is,
we're making a film
About fashionable lesbians.
You know, so we have to
be fashionable, and
Well, we're here
doing research.
Wait, this is coming
out of the wardrobe budget?
Shh.
We should get you some jeans now,
because,
Um, adele-- Adele?
The applique on
the back of your jeans,
Was declared an abomination
by the geneva convention.
We've got to burn them
after we buy these.
Come on
- Hi!
- Hi.
Look.
Oh wow.
Um, well, it's--
It's david yurman
And maybe we're getting
a bit carried away here.
This is quite expensive.
Oh!
No, no, no-- Not for me.
It's for niki.
You know,just a little--A little gift
for the start of the production.
Okay.
We'll take it.
- Now, adele--
- Yeah?
You're the only one
that knows about niki ande.
I know, i know,and discretion
is imperative.
The only reason i told you is
that so you could protect us.
I'll make sure that nobody
has the slightest inkling.
Well, yeah, i mean,
the thing is,
If the other actors knew,
It would just cause
so much drama
And so much jealousy
on set, you know?
I know.
I mean, everyone always
falls in love with the director.
Wow.
Oh, my gosh!
You look beautiful.
Thanks.
Do you like it?
I love it.
Thank you.
I love it,
i love it, i love it.
Mm, you know what?
I think we're going to wait until
we get back to l.
A.
To do your hair.
I think only shane should
be touching your hair.
Good morning, sweet pea.
Are you hungry?
Should we make pancakes?
Let me go check
and see what we have.
Okay, i'll go look.
Uh-Oh, we're out of milk.
I know what we should do.
What if we call mama b
And see if she wants to
have breakfast with us?
Hmm? Does that sound
like a good idea?
What do you think?
Yeah! Let's call mama b.
Do you want to come sit with me?
Let's call mama b and see
If she wants to go to the planet
and have pancakes.
- Do you want some pancakes?
- Have pancakes.
Okay.
I would love to go for breakfast
with you and angie,but, um
Oh.
Yeah.
Right, of course.
Tina, wait--
Uh, i think we're going to pass
on breakfast.
Yeah, it's a really sweet idea.
Um
But-- Yeah,
give angie a kiss for me.
Okay.
Bye.
Don't you want to go
out for breakfast?
I'm kind of
in the mood to go out.
I'm not
in the mood to go out.
You know what?
I would really just like to
sit in my garden
And read the newspaper.
But, if you want to go
to the planet, and
Do another podcast,
then that would be--
Oh, bette, i was just joking
And i said
i was sorry, too.
Are you going to go on
punishing me forever?
I'm sorry.
I'm just
I'm just stressed.
Do you want to go
and see some art?
Would that
help you to relax?
Or maybe we could
go to the beach?
Drive up the coast
to zuma.
I think i just
I just need a little
sunday alone time,that's all,
Just to get ready for the week.
I mean, apart from everything else,
I have to appear before the board
to tell them
What i'm going to do
about the justin donovan
Little gun-To-The-Head
escapade.
What are you
going to tell them?
I really don't know.
Tell them your judgment
was ciouded
Because professor lerner is
An incredibly hot ***
I'm so glad you guys met me.
I was feeling really lonely.
Oh, my god,
that's why i called shane.
Well, ladies, that's what
friends are for, what can i say?
But we're still going
to phyllis's tonight, right?
Yeah.
Isn't bette going to be there?
Is that--I thought you guys
were getting along lately?
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's not a problem.
Is tasha coming?
It's over, tina!
Do i look like
i want to talk about it?
Come on,this is crazy.
You two are so in love.
It doesn't
always matter.
I know, but can't you
just talk to her--
Did i not say i don't
want to talk about it?
Yeah?
Do you still want to
meet at the planet?
I'm here already.
With alice a shane.
Oh.
Well, i really
I really want to see you, tina.
I can't right now.
Well, what about tonight?
I don't--I don't have any plans.
I'm going to your boss's house.
Puppies!
Bette, i'm going to
have to call you back!
Those aren't friggin' puppies!
But i don't have rats.
It's impossible!
I have the cleanest
establishmentthis side of--
Until further notice?
Come on!
Man!
I haven't seen that many critters
since we shut down paulie's pizza.
We'll be asking folks
to clear on out now.
***, ***.
***.
***!
***, ***, ***!
Kit?
How'd
this *** happen?
I have a theory.
- Hey
- Hi.
Wild party, huh?
I thought you weret doing
anything tonight.
I wasn't.
Where's jodi? Is she here?
Um, no, she didn't want
to do a work thing,
And phyllis is work for us.
Right.
Tina?
Do you want to get out of here?
Are you going to dance
in your black bra?
You know, i was
thinking about it,
But i just
don't need one.
Oh, god.
Where's tina?
I don't know,
maybe she scored.
Oh!
Oh
Wow.
Gettin' good, huh?
- Wow.
- What?
Who's that?
I don't know.
She's cute.
Mother!
You know, you can't
stay too long.
I have to be on set
at 7:00 in the morning.
Yeah, i know.
I know.
So this thing's
really going through?
I mean, jenny's going
to be directing a movie?
Apparently.
I don't know what to do.
You're in love with jodi,
right?
I adore her.
And i respect
and admire her.
But
But what?
It doesn't
really compare.

Jodi would be
so devastated.
She can't find out.
Well, i'm certainly
not going to tell her.
I'm sorry, i just
I just need more time.
That's all.
I'm not pushing you.
I don't even know
what i want.
I know.
I
I just think
we both need to
take the time
To just figure out
what we want.
That's all.
You know,
what's right for us.
How to do
the right thing.
I think we just need
to take the time.
You need
to figure out
What's right
for you
And i need to
figure out
What's right for me.
Right.
Wow, adele.
Can you believe this?
All of this because of a few little
words that i wrote on a page.
I know, and now
you're just going to
Bring it to life
before our very eyes.
Do you want me to take you
right to your room?
I would like to
go to my trailer, sir.
Um, that's your--
Ur room.
Right.
Your trailer.
Sir, please
stop here.
I'm going to get out
And walk along
the street of my dreams.
I'm so excited.
Let's go.
Here,
let me take that.
Okay.
Thank you.
Ready? Wish me luck.
Good luck.
Here we go.
Okay.
Wow.
So, the catering truck
is back at base camp,
If you want me to get
you some breakfast.
But, if you want
craft services,
You see that house
right there?
- It's in the garage.
- Ok
Oh, and that's
the camera truck,
- Right there
- Right.
and that's where
you can find sam the dp
In between set-Ups.
Wow, okay.
How do you
know all this stuff?
You've never been
on a film set before.
I know, that's why
i came here
At 4:30 this morning
when they were loading in,
- Just to make sure i know
- Oh my gosh
Where everything is
for you.
Hey, are you girls
looking for extras holding?
It's right there.
Excuse me?
That is
jennifer schecter.
Hi.
I'm jennifer schecter.
The director?
Oh i'm sorry!
Kyle?
It's all right.
Kyle's your name?
No problem.
Yeah.
Hi.
Okay, thank you.
Jennifer schecter.
Hey.
Get his name.
I did.
Blocking's up in 20.
Great.
I'm glad
you both are here.
I wanted
to talk to you.
Well, i wanted jodi
to have a say in the matter,
Before you and i
went to the board--
It's about
my daughter, molly.
I don't think
you've met her yet, bette.
And you didn't even go
to the party last night, missy.
I was working.
My daughter arrived
at the most inopportune time.
I was having fun.
It was harmless.
Now she thinks
i'm turning into
A promiscuous,
debauched lesbian.
And what can we do
to help you, phyllis?
I need you
to help me
convince molly
That lesbians can be
Respectable
and upstanding
and stable--
All the values her father
and i instilled in her.
Uh how?
Just let her spend some time
with the two of you, together.
I want her to see two women
That have a stable,
honest and loving
relationship.
By the way,
we have to do something
About this boy who tried
to shoot himself in the head.
What? No, no,
no, no, no.
No, no, no!
He did not shoot
himself in the head!
It wasn't a real gun.
He did not shoot himself.
You propose?
Well, i propose
that we have a press conference.
I'll make a statement,
And jodi can do
some form of a mea culpa.
I don't think
it's going to work.
The board
is out for blood.
Molly's here to see you.
Please send her in.
Oh.
Sorry, i didn't realize
Come on in, molly!
Wee almost finished.
Come on, sit down.
This is bette porter,
the dean of our school of the arts.
Hi.
Nice to meet you.
And her partner, jodi lerner,
She teaches
in the sculpture department.
Nice to meet you.
This is tom,
he's jodi's interpreter.
Hi.
Th're lesbians.
I'm resigning.
What?
Justin donovan's piece
Was one of the best
student works
i've ever seen,
And i totally stand behind it.
But i know that, if bette
had known about it in advance,
She never would have
let me go ahead with it.
That is absolutely
not true.
I do not
want you to resign.
Well, neither do i.
I love teaching here.
I love my class.
But it sucks that your job
is jeopardized
Because of something
that i'm totally
responsible for.
So, i can't
live with that.
I'm resigning.
But, remember,
i have my work,
And, most importantly,
i have you,
So i'll be fine.
How far behind are we?
Oh,
only an hour and a half.
Jesus
Has niki stepped down?
Oh, great.
Here she comes.
Hi!
I'm so excited!
This is the first
shot of the film.
Okay, so what
you're going to do
Is we're going to
walk up here,
You're going to be
sniffing the rosemary
Where's the, uh,
prop person with the, uh--
The sprig?
Okay, so you're going to
be sniffing this.
Yeah, i don't know why
i'd be holding that.
I mean, it's stupid.
Because, um, tina
gave it to you out back,
by the pool,
And we just
rehearsed it.
Yeah, but who walks around
with a plant for no reason?
I mean, why would i still
be carrying it around?
Jenny, we've got to go,
we're out of time.
Okay.
*** the rosemary.
That's cool.
Okay, here we go!
And roll
sound, please.
Sound speaker.
Okay.
- "Action.
"
- Oh, right!
Action!
Yeah, well
I don't want to
write about
being a student
anymore, you know.
I'm done with
that part of my life.
You might
change your mind
when you get older.
I'm actually thinking about going
back to school to start a new areer.
Oh, you should do it.
Maybe in
a couple of years.
Right now, i'm trying
to get pregnant.
Oh, my god!
That's so great.
Hey.
Cut!
- That's cut.
- Sorry.
Hey, where's that contin--
That's-- That's not
the line, okay?
The scripted line is,
"Jim said that you and bev
were a couple.
"
So you're confused
how she could have a baby
Because she's a lesbian.
Well, that's retarded.
Everybody knows *** are
having babies all over, jenny.
Right, but the character
In my script
Has just arrived
to l.
A.
She's from the midwest.
She's naive.
She's never
met a lesbian before.
She's never met
a lesbian before?
What about ellen
and portia?
I mean, does she
not have a tv?
Hey, how about
you say the scripted line?
Oh, come on.
Come on
No, no, no.
Don't get upset.
She's an artist.
What
You want to go
take care of it?
Hey!
Niki!
Hey.
What's going on?
Hey.
We hookeup
the other night, jenny.
I know!
And now you're just treating me
like i'm some random actress,
Like you don't even know me.
No! I thought
that it was really
I thought that
it was really amazing.
Did you get the necklace
that i gave you?
I don't care about
some lame-*** necklace.
You didn't even come in
to see me this morning.
It's like you don't
care about me at all.
No, that's not true.
I didn't come in
to see you this morning
Because i don't want all
these *** *** actors
Gossiping about you.
Or gossiping about me.
But you know what i wanted to do
when you walked on the set today?
I really wanted to kiss you.
Really?
Yeah.
Wow.
You're still mad.
I thought
that you were angry!
What?
Come here.
What?
I can't believe
i'm going to *** you.
Oh, my god,
i'm going to *** you.
Are you wet?
Oh, my god.
Hey.
Hey!
You might want to
check this out.
Oh, my god.
Oh, ***!
(???)
Don't come yet!
***!
- Mr.
Kornbluth!
- What?
Mr.
Halsey just
arrived at base camp.
Oh, that's great.
William's here!
I can't wait
for him to hear
What's happening on the set
of his little lesbian movie.
Here you go,
mr.
Halsey.
An egg white with
white asparagus omelet,
Just for you.
Oh, this is so great.
Look at this!
That is the prettiest omelet
that i've ever seen.
Mr.
Halsey.
- Hi.
- Hey!
I'm adele channing,
jennifer schecter's assistant.
Would you like an omelet,
adele?
They're making them
with the yolk, or without.
Oh, no, thank you.
Thank you,
but, no, thank you.
I just uh, jennifer wanted me
to find you,
To let you know that there's been
a little problem with niki this morning.
Really?
Well, let's go see what's wrong.
The thing is,
mr.
Halsey
I think-- I think
you should know that
Jennifer and niki
are kind of involved
with one another.
What do you mean,
romantically involved?
Um yes.
Yes.
So, the, um
Director of the picture
Is sleeping with the star?
Is that what you're saying?
Um.
Yes.
And it's not always a bad thing.
- No?
- No.
How is it not a bad thing?
You know,
in the case of
In the case of niki
She's just so young
and so fresh and so green--
- Oh, really?
- Well, she is!
And, i've got
to tell you,
She was just really
nervous about this role.
And, the thing is,
Jennifer knew how much you wanted--
How much you needed niki for this role--
And when she sensed that niki
was about to drop out--
Well, she made her her lover.
Everything changed
after that.
Well, that's interesting.
That's a very interesting
approach, adele.
Yes, i think that
it saved the movie.
Well, i'm going to
have to really think about that.
Read your
contract, schecter!
I can replace you
with or without cause!
Calm down, aaron.
Is that your position?
No, it's not
my position, jenny.
I just i think
it could be difficult
for production,
- But, no, it's nobody's--
- William.
William--
I don't know
what you've heard,
But i have never--
In all my days
Of being in show business--
Had to put up--
Wow! There she is!
- I've missed ya!
- Give your daddy a hug.
He's being so mean to me!
Mean?
Don't you be mean
to my baby!
Okay.
That's the watch!
I'm wearinit.
That's the watch
i got for you!
Yeah.
Oh, you are really
something else.
That little niki stevens.
Her movie hasn't even
opened yet,
And already
she's out of control--
Well, she's a bit fragile.
Well, if there's anyone who can
take a fragile person
And glue them back together,
I think that would be you.
Now, didn't weake
an excellent decision?
???
Yeah.
Okay.
I know you don't
Okay, alice.
Are you ready?
Yeah, just--
My eyes are tearing
from the mascara.
Allergic to it
sometimes.
- Take a breath.
- Yeah
- Okay.
Okay.
- Great.
Okay.
- We cool?
- Oh, totally.
- All right.
- Great.
Rolling.
Hi! I'm alice in lesboland,
And we're here
on location.
It's a very special day.
We're here on the set
of jenny schecter's new film,
*** girls.
It's about the lives
and the loves
Of lesbians in los angeles,
And we're going to meet
the star of the movie,
niki stevens.
And, um that's it,
lots of girlie action.
Okay.
Good?
- Yeah.
- Okay.
I'm all right.
- Yeah.
- You sure?
We've got a problem
with some of the neighbors.
What kind of problem?
Thers a group
of neighborhood folks
over there threatening
to shut down the film.
They say they don't
want their neighborhood
portrayed as
"A hotbed of lesbian sex
and salaciousness.
"
We have permits.
I'll go handle it.
Well, they say
no one talked to them
Let's take
the limo.
And from
what we know about it,
None of us want to
be associated
with this film, okay?
It's unrealistic,
it exploits
Frankly, we're angry at how lesbians
are portrayed as conniving, promiscuous sex fiends.
Ladies, i don't know
Where any of you
got your information from,
But just want to
tell you guys--
Jenny,
that's dawn denbo,
She was at our party
last week.
- Does she even live in this neighborhood?
- I don't know,i doubt it.
She doesn't
even live here!
She doesn't even live
in this neighborhood.
She doesn't.
This is a personal thing.
That doesn't
really matter.
We have friends who live
in this neighborhood.
It doesn't matter.
You know what? Let me
tell you something.
Have you even
read the script?
- Yes, i've read the script.
- You have.
I've read some scenes,
and it sucked!
I auditioned for donna.
I gave her my sides.
So, how much do you think they want?Would 5,000 apiece do it?
No!
Who is this,your daddy warbucks?
What's up with this?
No, no, no, we don't--
No, we're not interested
in your money, okay?
No, it's the principle
of the thing.
No, we're not
interested in that.
- No--
- We'll take it.
Yeah.
Yeah, ladies,
If you'll follow,
i'll cut you
some checks.
Yeah, okay,
you know what?
Fi.
What's that?
$25,000 out of
your pocket? Fine.
And you guys'll
pay a lot more
before it's over.
I got two of those
for you.
*** you, denbo!
And your dumb lover.
You're a rat ***!
Bye, cindi!
Don't talk to
my girlfriend, shane!
Adele,
i like your makeover.
Thanks.
And i'm liking
those new jeans as well.
What,
these old things?
Come on, you know
you bought them yesterday.
I bought them yesterday.
Well, whenever
you bought 'em,
they look cute.
They do, they look
good on you.
Thank you.
So, what are you
thinking about?
Okay, i'm thinking
Just really long
and really straight
Bangs, coming forward,
like this.
And then maybe
a couple pieces
on the side, here?
And a couple pieces
on the side, here,
All coming forward,
so, kind of
Straight across
and forward here.
Like jenny's haircut?
Really? Oh?
I wasn't thinking
that it was like jenny.
Yeah, it is very much
like jenny's
If that's what you want.
Well
If you think--Then we don't
have to do it,that's okay.
Oh, i'm not saying--I know,
i just want to make sure that you knew.
So you don't mind having
your hairline
Be pushed forward a bit?
Like, this down?
No, that's good.
- Yeah, that looks--
- or even further?
Uh-Huh.
Yes.
Yes.
Yes, yes, yes.
That's what
you want?
Okay.
Shorter?
Right about there?
- Right above the eyes?
- Yes, right above the eyes.
I think that's what i want.
She was so noble.
She was going to
take the fall for me.
Oh.
Well,
where's she at?
She's working,
but i think she's going
to come over tonight.
Bette, it sucks
that she has to resign.
I can't even tell you
how *** up it is.
It's so *** up.
I mean, jodi is really
the most anti-Gun person
i've ever met.
Really, for her,
the entire piece
Was about gun violence.
Well, i was thinking
about getting a gun.
No, you're not
getting a gun.
Ever since
the robbery--
I want to protect myself,
i want to feel safe.
You're not going to
feel safe with a gun.
Guns do not
make you feel safe!
You're not getting a gun.
Ladies, you can't
go this way.
- They're making a movie.
- I live in this neighborhood.
And we are friends
with the producer.
And the director.
Both!
It's okay.
They're with me.
Told ya.
Well, are you here
to visit the set?
If that's okay.
It's great! Come on.
I'll show you around.
You're just in time.
We're about to
have the martini.
Oh, martini?
Well, not for me.
No, no, that's the last
shot of the day, kit.
Oh.
I can't believe
you're here.
I couldn't resist.
So you guys go to
get out of the car,
And you're going to
pick it up from,
"I'm so glad that
we're home," okay?
Hey, everybody.
Look who's here.
How are you, guys?
Hi.
Be very quiet, please.
Come sit over here.
Okay, so you guys get
out of the car and
Jenny is, um
*** the star.
Oh--
Or should i say,
she's *** herself?
- Oh, hey, how are you?
- You got your hair cut?
Oh, yeah, shane did it.
It was her idea.
Do you like it?
Seems like it's a pretty
popular cut around here.
What do you mean?
I mean, it kind of
looks like jenny's hair.
I don't think so.
It looks good.
Looks good on you.
You know those
*** shebar girls?
They came and they tried
to shut the production down.
Get the *** out.
- I'm not kidding.
- Yeah.
You know-- You know
We're going to take 'em down.
That's it.
It's on.
Are you guys with me?
Yeah.
I'm always
with you.
Seriously.
I am.
I wish tasha was here.
She'd know what to do.
Then give her
a call.
I'm just saying.
Come on.
This is
a really big deal.
It's pretty
amazing, isn't it?
And jenny's at the helm.
Yup.
Really interesting
hair choice on adele there.
I'm telling you,
it was not my choice,
But she just
insisted upon it.
What?
- What?
- She told me that--
That she was uncomfortable with it,and that you
Encouraged her to do it.
- She said--
- You did?
No! She said that?
Yeah, she said
she didn't want to do it,
You insisted.
Why would she say that?
It's freaky,
you guys.
You know what?
I think it's
going to be great.
It's going to be great
because
you're producing it.
Sandra, can we shoot?
- Yeah!
- Let's go!
