Soon enough Kit, Bette, Alice, Dana and Shane were all sitting at their usual table of the Planet.
Alice: “So what’s going on then?”
Bette: “Kit do you want me to explain?” Kit nodded her agreement. This is what Bette did best. Explanations, decisions and results.

Bette: “Well you all know that Kit purchased the Planet. Well she decided as you know that she wants to revamp the place. Turn it into a nightclub in the evening!”
Dana: “I love that idea. You go girl” with a big beam across her face.
Shane: “Yeah Kit, it’s going to be heaving in here!”
Alice: “So what’s the problem?”
Bette: “Kit is having trouble with the property developers. Their not getting what Kit is aiming for. I suppose really they are bombarding her with all their ideas of how they see it! Is that right Kit?” Turning to her sister giving her hand a reassuring squeeze.
Kit: “Yeah, they have all said that a trendy wine bar would go down really well in this area. But that’s not what I am all about. My clientele are young, gay and funky. I told them this and they said that with a wine bar I would get more respectable clients. One guy I literally threw out, coz of the comments he made.”
Alice: “Blimey. A wine bar I couldn’t see any of the regulars frequenting it”
Bette: “So what I…sorry what we we’re hoping was that maybe between the five of us we could come up with something? What do you say will you help?”

Alice, Shane and Dana all started to talk at once.
Alice: “Of course we’ll help”
Shane: “anything for Kit babes, you know I’m there”
Dana: “I’ll do all I can sweets”
With that Kit started sobbing again!
Bette: “Hey come on!”
Kit between sobs: “I…..sob…. Don’t…..sob….know what I ….sob…. Would do….sob….without you…….sob….girls”

Alice got out her laptop. Shane called the waitress over and ordered more coffees.

Alice: “Right, I think I may have the solution”
Kit: “What already?”
Alice: “Well maybe” she continued to boot her laptop up “about a month ago if I recall I did an article for LA Today, about property developers, and I am sure that we did a ‘top ten’ list”
Dana: “Ohhh what a surprise! God Alice who haven’t you done a ‘top ten’ list on!”
Alice: “Well actually Dana- tennis players, and if I did you wouldn’t feature in it, because of your constant moaning”
Dana: “ohhhh I’m sooooo scared Al!”
They continued to bicker.
Bette: “Ladies please can we concentrate”
Dana and Alice is unison “ Sorry Bette!”
