The L word - Episode 203 - "Loneliest Number"

Well, shit seems to be going pear-shaped for our gang of luscious L-word ladies. This episode was full of anguish, misery, gloominess, heartache, foreboding, uncertainty, trepidation, awkwardness, and immoral and impulsive behavior. (well, more than usual anyways)
Bette and Tina are in the full throes of rich-lesbian divorce, and the pushy, creepy lawyer Joyce Wishnia is determined to get what's coming to Tina....I'm thinking that's going to be more like what's coming WITH Tina, if you are picking up what I'm throwing down. (Did I mention that T has moved into JW's guesthouse!)
Bette proceeds to crash her car and manhandles some road-raged twit....spends the rest of the episode screaming, drinking and smoking.
Shane and the damn-fine new chick Carmen get it on, but Shane is all tough and no attachment...but Shane is not that hard to figure out we all know deep down she is smitten. All the while her new roomie, Jenny, is lurking in the shadows, ready and willing to pounce on this fresh meat left unattended....But not before going all freaky again and stalking the writing teacher (a fabulously bitchy Sandra Bernhard)and showing up for the class she is not in.
Dana is starting to realize that Tonya is a bit of a nut, and the whole Celebrity Lesbian Wedding fiasco was definitely over the top. Dana gets pissy about a 15% payout Tonya is taking off her profits for being her "manager". She naturally goes off to be consoled by her real honey, Alice. This unrequited love storyline is brilliant! But,they better get on with it....The Absolut Vodka sponsored Celeb Lesbo nuptial is looming (*cringe*)
Kit re-opens "The Planet" and its a smash! Carmen is spinning the tunes, Alice and Dana are making eyes, Bette is drinking and smoking, Jenny is lurking and Shane is getting it on with the lead singer of "Betty"....Carmen gets jealous, and Jenny senses that this is a good time to ask her go home with her. Carmen says yes, but another time - she is still working....Shane approaches to witness Carmen lean over and kiss Jenny (oh man....here we go...) Bette goes home and floats face down in the pool fully clothed while Kit sings "Some Kind of Wonderful" in the background.
Whoa....angstful stuff....can't wait til next week!
