Air Supply…Chapter 13
CHAPTER 13:
(Madeleine tries to comfort Bette.)
“Oh Bette…it’s ok…your tears make sense…you’re hurting…who wouldn’t be.” (She holds Bette as the latter woman cries.) “You need some time away…away from this place and all the triggers, but I don’t want you to be isolated. I need for you to talk to someone.” (Bette slowly stops crying and faces Madeleine.) “You gotta face things Bette, and you gotta get control.”
“How?”
“Well…it’s really very simple. First…know thyself.”
“What?”
“I know it sounds silly but clearly here you’ve been totally out of touch with your deepest feelings and doing all sorts of stuff but all in some effort it seems to avoid your inner stuff. You had a bit of a revelation today, and that’s a start. You have to explore though what it really means.”
(Bette chuckles and looks at Madeleine…) “Stuff? Is that the psychiatric term doctor?”
“Oh whatever…all that psychobabble drives even me crazy!” (They both laugh.) “Yes Ms. Surgeon… ‘stuff’…”
“I’m worried…” (Bette says this as she smiles.)
“About????”
“I thought you were going to deck me before…and now…you’re being too nice!”
“Fearing a sucker punch eh Porter?!” (Bette chuckles.) “Well, you messed with my resident…AGAIN!!! I shoulda decked ya! But Bette…what you said to her in my office…yikes.”
“I know. But who cares Madeleine? It’s true…my life is none of her business and her life…her romantic life…none of mine.”
“Might be true, yes.”
“Might????”
“Bette…” (Madeleine stops herself from pushing too far. Bette had a bit of a revelation, but she’s still stubborn.) “Listen…let’s go get your things. You need to get outa here. I want you to call me tonight. I want to know you’re ok. Take the weekend. Think about things. You’ve got my number. If you need anything at all, no matter what time of day, you call me.” (Bette nods. Some time passes as they chat and walk to the doctors’ lounge to get Bette’s things.)
(Bette and Dr. Madeleine Schmidt were walking towards the parking lot. Dr. Schmidt was walking Bette to her car after the long conversation they had in the boardroom. As they crossed the side entrance to the hospital, Bette suddenly stopped as she saw Tina with Angelica and Shane, who were not that far away near the pond. Tina was standing with Angie and Shane. Suddenly, Angie pulls away and starts running…)
