Bette is in her car driving, she has no idea where she’s going…her phone starts to ring, she looks at the caller id and sees that it’s Tina ,she lets it go to voicemail…(now you want to talk….well guess what ,I don’t want to talk to you.).she continues driving and ends up at Shane’s.___she knocks on the door.

SHANE :   hey  Bette come on in…..what brings you to this side of town without calling first….are we lost…(smiling)

BETTE:   that’s an understatement

SHANE:  wow ! who is on your bad side now?

BETTE:  fucking  Alice and her big mouth…I swear Shane… sometimes I could just strangle her I swear if I could get away with murder I’d kill her…

SHANE:  ( LAUGHING)…..it’s that bad ahh….why don’t you make yourself comfortable ,while I get us some beers ,and you tell me  what Alice did that has you so furious?

Bette had just finished telling Shane about Alice when her cell started ringing again. she looks at her caller id and  ignores the call

SHANE:    why don’t you go ahead and get that .based on what you told me it’s not that bad,…Tina will come around ,Alice just caught her by surprise and  she was a little embarrassed___________

BETTE:     that’s not even half of it Shane—Tina and I haven’t talked about this …  hell….i don’t even know what this is. I don’t  want to set myself up for major disappointment here ,—-Tina and I have done this dance before .she has claimed to have forgiven me before, until one day I woke up and found that I was living in a dream…I can’t put myself through that again Shane…I refuse to do that to Angie…and I won’t be one of those parent that stays in an unhappy relationship because of the kid. This dance we’re doing Shane_ i’m too old for this shit .say I decide to give us another chance ,and confess my love for her…_because I do love her Shane …and one day she wakes up and decides  I’m not what she wants…then what Shane…my heart couldn’t take it. then what!

SHANE: that’s why I think you should talk to Tina, see how she’s feeling and take it from there.
