Capitulation Part III
Tina
Thanks, Bette.
(They hear a voice in the hallway. Bette goes to the door and opens it a bit. They can hear Helena telling Franklin about the ultrasound. Bette returns to her desk.
Bette
I guess youve already got someone for that.
Tina
Im sorry, Bette. I didnt know she was coming here.
(They hear a knock at the door. Helenas voice is heard before she enters).
Helena
Bette, do you want to see Tinas ultrasound pictures.
(Helena enters the room and spots Tina).
Helena
Tina, darling, I didnt know you were coming here. You could have ridden in the limo with me.
Tina
You didnt tell me that you were coming here, either.
Helena
Sorry, love. I thought you would want to rest after the day weve had. (She gives a lascivious chuckle).
Bette
If you two would excuse me, I really have some work that I would like to finish.
Helena
Im sorry, Bette. I suspect Tina has already shown you the pictures. I was so excited while they were rubbing that little gadget over her tummy. I just wanted everyone to see the pictures.
Tina
(stands)
Helena, we need to let Bette get back to work.
Helena
I suppose so, darling. Well, since were both here why dont we ride home together. Ill send someone to pick up your car. How about a dip in the pool. (Turns to Bette). She just looks so yummy in her maternity swim suit, at least until she takes it off. Then she is even yummier.
Tina
(goes and grabs Helena roughly by the arm)
Helena, lets go. Now
(They exit. Tina turns to give Bette a look of apology, but Bettes head is turned to look out the window. Bette waits until the door closes before she breaks down in silent sobs.
EXT: BETTE AND TINAS POOL DECK: NIGHT
(Bette is sitting in her usual chaise lounge with a glass of wine. She turns when she hears a knock at the gate.)
Tina
Can I come in?
Bette
(with a defeated tone of voice)
Sure, Tina.
Tina
(sits down next to Bette)
I just wanted to apologize for this afternoon. Helena was way out of line. I honestly didnt know she was going to be there.

Please post again soon, I really can’t wait to see where you take this!? :)
This is so good…so painful. I feel like I have been punched in the gut reading each word. Really well done. Thank you.
Helena is a small person and hopefully she will get what’s coming to her…Tina may be starting to wake up….pleeze!?
Wow, tug at the heart strings or what! Bette needs someone to hug her and look after her, i’m just the gal to do it!
This is fresh. I love the screenplay format. It reads really quickly and clearly.
Helena is pouring it on, isn’t she?
Bette seems resigned to her fate. Tina may realized she acted to hastily.
Thanks for posting another Part in the same day!
please ditto all that Seahurst said. i have just caught up on this and am enjoying it very much. you know, it’s funny in that in just 2 episodes, the writers have made me lose all sympathy for the character of Tina and it is Bette (the character of) that i feel the most sorry for (perhaps that is evident somewhat in what i have written, but this season is merely cementing those sentiments). ok- am rambling, but thanks for this perspective and know that i am really enjoying it.
WOW! Nouvelle…this is incredible…I love the format…I love the storyline…I love the whole thing…now you know you are NOT busy at work, so go ahead and post a few more…help make my Friday night entertaining. GOOD JOB> thank you for the hard work.
Wow that was so sad I can’t believe Tina is Letting Helena control her like that.
you are doing a great job with this — very tough stuff — but a great job — thanks
What a heartbreaker … I feel for Bette now. The whole misunderstanding and the feelings surround their encounters is such a tearjerker time.
Really enjoyed it.
Man! Helena’s a real bitch, huh? Seems we’ve got the 2nd season Marina. Can’t they get rid of Helena and bring back Marina? (God, I never thought i’d ever say something like that… lol). Really great chapter, bravo:) I’m really looking forward to the next one.
Really tight. It’s great to see your vision of what these characters have to say to one another. You really are doing the dialogue so well. More please.
Well, that was a hard chapter to read. I already felt bad for Bette, but now you’ve made me feel even worse for her.
Oh yeah. Great job!
Nice story you have going… I love the screen play format..I am really feeling for Bette..she really knows she did some damage ..to the relationship..so sad….At least she is talking to Tina….can’t wait for the next chapter..:)
If this is how the season is gonna go, I dont want to watch it, this heartbreaking
I’m begining to like this story….I just hope that Tina will kick helena’s ass…lol
Oh man I don’t like Helena and she is a bitch. This is heartbreaking when Helena tell Bette all about Tina and her together, that just bad man bad, I just feel hurt for Bette when she heard those words coming out of Helena mouth that just killing her man. But glad that Tina come by later and to Bette about and hope next time she and Bette will have a good talk together. Please post soon the next one soon, thank you! Great chapter!
Love it.
better the devil you know!! great story,lets hope they see the light!
by the way i like the title of your story(although i had to look up the dictioary)its perfect nouvelle.
How long will Tina put up with Helena BS. she is still protected of Bette and her feeling. Tina said the baby is her and Bette .Bette said NO. how does this make Tina really feel. Thanks so much love your writing.
This is a very good story and can I say that I am really enjoying the screen play format? It’s so different and direct. Keep it up.
