The L Word - x - Lifesize


This is my cell.

Call me anytime.

Five minutes come on.

I wanted to say that thing you're going through...

- This thing...?
- This... change of life, it's really...it's beautiful, and it's sexy and... that's why I brought the guitare.

I'm not fish a fowl.

I want you to get dressed Max.

I want you to wear a tight trousers.

You look really hot.

I'm gonna throw down the keys can you let yourself in?

Sure.

What don't we get outta here?

I think Uta might be a vampire.

- They found a lump in my breast... it's routine.
- Lump?

I'm having it removed.

Carmen this is Cherry...

Act like you have a girlfriend.

Jesus that...

Isn't it beautiful?

Almost forget it's a body.

Uh... no Bette...it's definitly a body!

Danica Pomer says Mapplethorpe is even in the process of therapy...

Professor Pomer of you...

She says may Mapplethorpe likes to think at the photograph as an object.

Because it's an experience you can hold in your hand.

Yeah...

I guess you can hold that experience in your hand...

Are you hard?

Are you ok?

You're f*ckin' that guy in the photograph!

I do it too...

You do?

To whom?

Professor Danica Pomer.

Did you f*ck her?

Have you f*cked him yet?

f*ck who?

Who ever it is that you have these feelings for?

No!

I haven't slept with anyone.

So, it's just this...e-morph face male figure comprised, entirely has solved the problem?

That was a one time thing on chat room I thought it was just curiosity, I thought it would go away.

But it didn't go away?

No, it didn't.

So Daddy was just uh...a transitional object?

Yeah, I guess...

So um...is there uh... is there a real man in the... real word some... where?

No... I don't...

I don't know...

Ok yeah!

I think so...

Who is it?

His name is Josh.

That is that... the producer, right?

Right?

Nothing's happened I mean for all I know is not even interested in me.

Oh Tina please, of course he is interested in you.

If you're talking to him on the phone, you can't flirt like that unless someone is flirting back with you!

I love you!

You know how many men have said that?

Right after they did it, you just did.

Well, it's not on my business.

And then...they say, they gonna go out for coffee and... or put gaz in their car, and then...

years later I found them on the street.

They look like sh*t!

Well...

I am different.

You are not old enough to know that you are no different than any other men.

I am years old...

I am almost middle age, now that is certainly old enough to know that I love you.

That's a big word with noone around.

A big...

Ok!

If you don't feel the same way... you don't feel the same way!

Oh, Angus!

No Kit! I know what you gonna say... you gonna say...oh let's take more time and...that's fine... I mean... we've got all the time in the world... but...the one thing I know it's how I feel.

And...

I doubt you don't feel it too because you know I was there.

What do you mean you were there Angus?

Ok, so...we had a couple good rose in the barn.

A kinda ...

- Actually.
- Ok, ok... .... fantastic... orgasmes. Ok, ok, thank you very much...

So... what I'm... just your boy-toy is that it?

I mean... would... would that be bad?

Yeah... that'd be bad!

I'm definitly not that guy.

Hey Alice.

Hello Janice...

Oh my God! What happened to you?

I don't know but uh...

I think that I may have just been released from my mortal coils.

Hey Janice...

Would you mind... disposing of this obsolete thing?

Trash or recycling?

Trash, recycling... I don't know... can you recycle from a car?

I don't know...

Yeah... well, I don't give a f*ck... coz I am free at last...

Wouou!

Oh, here baby let me get it.

You know I don't need deodorant.

I mean... I'm gonna be in the hospital right?

I mean, what's the point?

Nobody gotta guess, nobody likes to be around the smell of rat!

- Dana!
- No Lara it's true!

I hope you know that.

I don't want those...they bunch up to much, I want the green ones.

Ok!

Green ones!

Anything else?

Here we go!

Ok! Thanks

Come on, please, please, please

- Ah morning!
- Good morning!

Is it one?

Yes.

- Jenny could you ser...
- Oh my God!

- Hi!
- Hi!

It's so nice to see you.

- It's nice to see you.
- What are you doing here?

- Oh oh... you didn't get my message?
- No!

I'm here to see you!

Oh my God. Wow!

Um... oh thank you I'll sit down...

- Ok, great!
- Thank you!

And you should sit down...

I know it's a bit unusual for a publisher to jump on a plane and flight across the country... to see a writer.

Well, I'm just grateful, that... you've took the time to read it.

You know how my daughter's like...

Rebecca wouldn't stop until I read every word...

And I very grateful that I did.

How is Rebecca?

Jenny...

Yes?

Table would like their check...

Billie...

It would be super fantastic... if you could actually cover for me just for minutes...

Here you go... um...

and then this I'm so sorry!

Sorry!

Let me get right down to business.

Ok!

We wanna publish you book... next fall...

I wanna lend it up against some of the big hiters... make the critics really take notice.

Are you serious?

Yeah!

And it was important to me that we have this chance to talk... because I have to ask you something Jenny.

Sorry...

- It's alright..
- I can't believe it!

How much of the novel it's true?

I'm imagining there a lot of the things... in this book actually happened to you.

Um... yeah I mean... it... it cuts close to the bone.

Not since "Bastard out of Carolina" have had been so surely convinced.

The way you handle... farmer and the landscape in that poor girl's mind.

You were a cutter right?

Rebecca would never say it but... from what you wrote.

I was... but I'm not now...

We're gonna send you on a book tour...and I don't want you to be afraid to talk about that!

I don't know why I talk about me... because the book is fiction.

I understand that... but unfortunaly Jenny, people aren't buying literary fiction the way they use to.

And in today's climate survivors memoires have a much better chance of breaking out and reaching an audience.

Jenny... ok cut it, print it, moving on...

Come on!

Kit...

Kit! I'm sorry Billie...

I'd like you guys to meet Jane Martin, who is from Simon & Schuster, she flew in from New York to talk to me about my novel.

Hi.

Hey.

Hi, oh uh... Billie...

I think you can handle it ok?

Yeah... we are not even that busy. Ok?

- We're slumbed...
- Go, that's ok... that's ok...

Jesus!

I'm sorry so... not to be but how much of the content will I have to change?

Not that much, I'm giving you one of our most gifted editors...

Neve Surifian.

Oh my God... oh... - - Jenny...

You've written a wonderful book and I really wanna get it out there.

Here you go.

What is this?

First half of your advance.

Take a look.

Would you excuse me just for one second... just...

Of course.

Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God, oh my God, I can't believe it, I can't believe it, oh my God, I'm so happy...

May be we should take that...trip to Paris in the spring...

- that way...
- Lara please!

Dana Fairbanks?

Yeah.

Dana follow me please.

Can she come with me?

- Of course.
- Ok.

Ok... if you put this on... somebody will be with you in a moment.

Thanks.

And we do like our patients to mark which breast it is.

Are you serious?

We've never had a problem... it's just for safety.

- Ok?
- Ok.

Are you in love with her?

No.

Are you sure?

Yeah!

Please Carmen I don't wanna make this into a big deal.

You go all the way over to somebody's beach house and you f*ck him 'till the sum comes up...

- and you're asking me not to make it into a big fuking deal?
- You were practically cummin...

- all over those two Jef Jam guys...!
- That was work...

- Don't you start...
- It's f*cking work... and you know it!

Are you jealous?

No...

I'm not f*cking jealous.

It just made me sad.

Oh, you were so f*cking sad that you go off and you f*ck Cherie Jaffe...

Shane what kind of a psychotic's response is that?

I guess I'm really f*cked up in that way.

Are you hungry?

Yeah... I'm starving!

You are?

Yeah.

Um...

We've got some pizza.

Do you want sausage or f*cking peperoni?

- Carmen....
- What the f*ck is it that you want uh?

- That you just f*cking me...
- Yeah... yeah... you know what... sometimes it is...

In that case...

Yyu should have no f*cking problem with me going on f*cking whoever I want.

Hey Tina.

I think you should explore at this Josh thing.

I mean... you know... you... really need to know what this is about... and frankly so do I.

This is so screwed up!

Are you telling me to sleep with him?

If that's what you wanna do.

I don't know... what I want.

Well, you need to figure it out.

And you need to know that I can't promise... that I'll still be here once you got your answers.

And that should do it, keep it with the good work ok?

Ok.

Thanks.

Hi Dana.

Hi Dr. Shapiro...

How are you feeling?

Ok...

This is my partner Lara.

Hi, Lara.

Hi.

When the anesthesiologist arrives I'm gonna have to ask you to leave, but... don't worry we're gonna take good care of her.

I... uh... just want uh... come in and make sure that you're... clear about what we gonna do this morning.

We won't know everything of course untill we're inside but...

I also want to give you an opportunity to look at your... consent form, you've already signed but... just in case you wanna see it again before we begin.

I'm fine with it.

Ok then.

Ok.

I'm gonna be right here as soon as you wake up.

Everything's gonna be fine.

Promise?

I promise.

Dylan and Danny are here.

Thanks Rosy you can tell Helena.

Ok.

Uh... no thanks.

Water be great.

Great have a seat.

Thank you.

Helena will be here any minute.

Alright.

So how's the editing going?

And the staff incredible... I mean the girls really start to trust her so I mean...

- Hi!
- ... it's only need a...

Helena Peabody.

Yeah, we met!

Did we?

Oh, right at the screening... yeah right... yeah...

Dylan!

It's nice to see you again.

Um...

You... are the cuttest boy...

I have ever seen!

Are you doing hormones?

No.. not yet... but I've been thinking about it.

You don't have to wait Max.

I can hook you up.

Yeah?

You mean I don't have to wait for a doctor's prescription?

Just ask Tom. Remember him, you met at my party.

Anytime you want.

Just let me know.

Ok we're talking monogamy.

It is a noun.

And... it is the condition or a practise of having a single mate during a periode of time.

I get it Carmen.

Wait a minute I just wanna make sure that you and I both know what we're talking about here.

Um...

Oh, listen to this, monogamy is common among birds.

That's great 'cause I love birds.

It's the practise of... having a single mate during... a periode of time, does that... mean anything to you?

I'm willing to try.

Is that not enough I'm willing to try something that...doesn't come naturally to me?

That I don't understand but I'm willing to try?

Right.

Birds, Shane...

I'm talking about a God damn f*cking bird... asking you to be as civilized... as a God damn f*cking bird.

Don't!

Really?

- Really don't.
- Don't do it?

No!

I shouldn't do it, it's wrong, it's completly irresponsible...

Knock, knock...

Hi!

Hey weirdos...

You're still trying to get her to quit smoking?

Uh... you know...just a little about monogamy.

Oh!

Yeah...

Yeah... one of those.

You're f*cking expert!

Yeah, birds mate for life.

Eh... do you know anything about bats?

Bats? Bats, bats, bats... no!

Too bad 'cause...

I got bitten.

What?

Don't be jealous.

Oh my God!

Ok but don't laugh 'cause I could really be one of the undead... in like days.

Al!

And do my eyes look a little black?

I'm serious!

No come on Al, you got embraced.

I sure did.

No, it's called the vampire's embrace, they're just like... this lesbian vampire goth codes... so what they do, is they pick a victim... they like take 'em home, seduce them, f*ck 'em blind...

You don't even now...

And then... they bit your neck.

It was the best sex I ever had, in my all life.

I came like times.

Did you hear that Shane?

What?

Like orgasmes.

It's fantastic Alice!

And then I threw Dana out when I get home.

You threw Dana out?

The pointer sale...promotional...

She's gone!

- Congratulations!
- Thank you.

So um...

I'm gonna go to Sleater-Kinney tonight with Uta, you guys are coming?

I don't know!

Are we?

Only if you manage to clean up your act by then...

Yeah Shane you really should quit smoking...

It's gross...

Look as much as we wanna be in business with you,

Dylan is not prepare to give up her final cut, this is her baby right?

- I'm sorry but it's impossible that we're g...
- It's fine!

We wouldn't dream of taking away Dylan's final cut of her own movie.

Helena!

It's fine with me Tina.

That's great.

Carmen?

Yeah!

I made a mistake...and... and I can't say that... it won't happen again.

I would be f*cking up liar.

But I wanna try.

You're the first person I wanna make that...

I wanna make that promise to.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry!

I think the paperwork should probably take about a week...

Ok!


- That's what I'm thinking.
- Oh my jacket... sorry!

Um...

I'll catch you up!

Ok.

I... I need to talk to you.

Ok.

I don't understand you're acting like...like we don't even know each other.

We don't... know each other Helena...

Really?

I... I got caught up in the work...and... and what we were talking about I get really open and vulnerable when I'm talking about my work... but...nothing like that has never happened to me before.

Nothing like has ever happened to before either...

You're gay...

Nothing that intense!

Look I'm...

I'm straight Helena. and I'm with Danny... and... you know maybe that makes you not wanna support me in my project.

No it... it... it doesn't affect my decision.

You're sure?

Because... it's never gonna happen again.

If that's what you want...

Ok...

Dr. Shapiro...

How is she?

She is in recovery...

Is everything ok?

I'm afraid I can't share that information with you.

What... what are you talking about? Why not?

Because technically you're not Dana's family.

I'm her partner.

She... she told you that!

Unfortunaly, I'm only legally allowed to release medical information to family.

Do you know how to reach Dana's parents?

Sure... yeah... yeah...

No we can... we'll have dinner and we'll just put it here from there.

Yeah...

Well, yeah I mean... do... what do you like to do? Do you wanna drive... you want me to drive? What do you like?

You like to drive of course...

Hey, Uta... can you... one second ok? Hold on.

Uta?

Can you... can I... can you hold on... I'll call you right back... ok!

He... hello?

Lara?

What... what's going on?

Alice, Dana is... is sick!

She didn't... she didn't tell you guys the whole truth.

I mean we knew that she was coming and to have a mastectomy but...

Mrs. Farebanks...

Did... did Alice call you guys... I... I ask her to call you... I didn't... I didn't know how to get in touch with you.

Dr. Shapiro these are...

Dana's parents, this is... Dr. Shapiro, Dana's surgeon.

So... so what happened? What's she doing here?

If you just follow me I can take you in to see her.

You can go home now we'll take over from here thanks.

Mom, Dad...

Hello sweetheart.

Oh...

Darling, baby girl....

How long have guys been here?

Just a little while we came as soon as they called.

Where is Lara?

She went home.

She did? What did she go home?

Dana... we are your family honey...

Please.

What's going on?

Dana, it's was much more progressed that we anticipated.

The cancer has metastasized as lump notes.

We had to remove a great deal of muscles and tissue.

Hi, Uta um... it's Alice, I um... something's just happened and I'm gonna have to cancel tonight but um...

I... I just... I can't really talk about it right now but... um... I'm really sorry!

Ok!

I'll talk to you later.

I thought you put me in charge?

Um... sorry Tina... what's the problem?

You told me you would follow my lead and let me run the company.

I can't have you under my knee in a meeting like that.

Sorry it...it won't happen again.

Ok!

Thanks!

Tina... can I ask you a question?

Sure!

Have you ever... fall in love with a straight women?

Oh God!

Helena... you're asking the wrong person.

I was straight untill I met Bette.

But then... talk to me as a straight woman.

What went through your mind when you first had those feelings?

It was terrifying... um, the falling in love part feels good.

But there is so much to wrap your head around.

Why it isn't... love... just... love?

No it isn't... it's... it's not the life that most straight women want.

Most of us... most straight women... has been so much time preparing for the husband, the kids, the house...

It's too much to endure.

I just don't understand you know how... can someone... be so there... and then...

Helena!

Can I give you some advice?

Please...

Just let it go... it almost never turns out like you want it to.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Um... can I... can I talk to you?

- Of course!
- Um...

I sould go if I'm gonna make that screening... I really should...

Yeah.

What?

I... I...

I'm so glad you're here.

Irwin, Sharon... hi!

Alice... what are you doing here?

We... we'd really like to know what's going on with Dana... no one's telling us and...

They removed her breast and found it's already spread...

Oh my God!

You should both go home now rather, it's nothing either of you can do right here.

Well I'm sure...

I'm sure Dana would want... La... Lara to be in there.

Alice! Dana is very sick... and she... she needs to rest!

Listen...

I can't even begin to imagine what you're going through right now... but...

Lara is Dana's partner.

We really need to respect that...she loves your daughter very much... Dana needs her right now, I'm sorry!

Hey!

- Hey you!
- Where did you go?

I'm right here baby!

Alice is here too.

She is? Where is she?

I'm right here.

Come here.

Do you need any help?

No I've got it. Thanks.

So did anything happen today?

I had this running with Helena, and you'd be proud of me, I stood right up to her.

I wasn't really talking about that.

Bette don't go there...

Josh is this producer I work with on a project, I talk to him once a week and when I do, I talk to him about business.

Well, I just thought maybe it's hormonal this thing that you're going through.

I only dated men before I met you.

So what was I, some kind of eight and a half year aberration?

Hello!

Hi.

Hey... can you give me a hand with this?

Thanks.

- Hey Kit...
- Hey!

What are you...

Oh my f*cking God... you've got to be kidding me!

Ok... where is Angelica?

Napping!

Ok this is just unbelievable, I don't... I don't... I can't ever believe that I'm going to have to say this... but of all the men in Los Angeles, cute little bunny ass or not, you have to go after the one guy in our daughter's life?

She sounds asleep.

Look... she didn't go after me...

I went after her... I've been f*cking relentless... I never felt this hard for a woman in my entire life.

Woaw!

Alright, well what about when you break up?

- We're not gonna break up.
- No?

Angus you don't know about that... we're... we're just...

You just what?

Dating...

And making up, like a couple of teenagers!

Which I think it's great... it's great... look you just still baby sit! Ok?

Congratulations!

Oh great... ok. Hug, hug, that's fantastic... but you know what we need some rules.

Rules?

Yeah, rules like no sex in front of the baby?

Of course not!

Kit?
