Kai (looking at her watch): I’ve got to get going.  

Bette (rubbing the back of her neck): I’ll keep looking for that one we can’t identify. I’ll give you a call later.

Kai (hugging her again): Or we’ll call you. Now let me go play Doctor with two very hot film executives.

Bette (smirking): Hey one of those hot women happen to be my future wife.

Kai (evilly): And you have yet to set the date (shaking her head.) Shame on you.

Bette (playfully): You behave yourself.

Kai (winking): Always (walking past Jodi and James) oh and James relax, you don’t have to wear a tie to work anymore.

Bette (pointing): Kai keep going. Don’t give him any ideas. (Looking at James then at her visitor.) Jodi (taking a deep breath.)

Jodi (standing): Hi Bette (signing) I’d like to talk with you.

Bette (figuring how bad could it be; they had managed to have some semblance of polite conversation.) Come on in.

James (pretending to look at Bette’s schedule): I’ll ring you for your 230.

Bette (gratefully): Please. (Opening the door to her office) have a seat.

Jodi (looking around; she noticed the three different Goddess statues and smiled): You seem to be doing well. Busy, in your own space and are you happy.

Bette (pouring them both a cup of coffee): Let’s get a few things straight so to speak (glaring at her.) One Tina and Angie are completely off limits. Two so is the rest of my family. Three it’s business or you can leave. (Sitting down) got that.

Jodi (shrugging): Fine. Whatever. Here’s the thing, my girlfriend has a few pieces she’d like to show in your gallery. Nothing to do with me. (Pulling out several photos) here they are.

Bette (taking them; looking at them carefully): Ancient Egyptian pyramids and temples. Very well detailed. What’s the media…

Jodi (trying to remember): Clay, bronze, aluminum and some marble.

Bette (standing up and pulling out a book): These are pretty good (reaching in her desk drawer; thumbing through a file) have her fill out one of these and one of these (sliding the papers across the desk.) I’ll let you know my fee as soon as I figure out where I’m staging them. Anything else.
