Tina looked at her watch and said, “Bette should be back any minute”

Alice: “Okay, I’ve been chosen to represent the magazine this year in the West Hollywood GLBT Youth Center‘s film festival.”

Tina: “Whoa.  That’s excellent, Alice.”

Alice: “See, Dana.Tina, I knew you’d think so.”

Tina: “So, what’s up, you need us to sponsor you or something, because you know you have our support”

Alice nodded and coyly smiling over at Dana, said, “That’s exactly what I was hoping you’d say, Tina.  Um, but I don’t need money.  No, you and Bette need all of your money for little Angelica over here.  Cute, adorable, cuddly, Angelica…”

Tina squinted, “Okay, well then what do you need?”

Bette: “NO!”

Tina: “Oh come on, Bette.  It’s for the Weho GLBT Youth Center.”

Bette: “She wants to FILM us, Tina, our lives??  Uh, uh, No way, have, have you been drinking your own breast milk again?”

Tina grabbed Bette by the arm and guiding her to the bed, forced her to sit down.  “It’ll only be for a week.”

Bette: “A week?  Why us, huh, why not Dana?  She’s a professional ***** tennis playerthat has to be more interesting than a ***** couple raising a child.”

Tina: “Not to the world at large, it isn’t.  Just think of the educational value alone, Bette.  The youth of this town could really benefit from seeing a positive ***** relationship portrayed for them instead of what they get see on television.  And when Angelica gets older, this is something that we can show her together.”

Just then, the bedroom door kicked open and Bette’s eyes opened wide as Alice, who was holding a duffle bag in one hand, a camera in the other and a boom mic under her arm, said, “Hey roomies.  Tina, where do you want me?”

Tina: “We’ll just set a place for you in the living room, Alice.”

Alice: “Realism got it.   It wouldn’t look right if I had a room of my own.I supposeno, no biggie.  Oh, and Bette, I want you to know that the *****, *****, bisexual and transgender children of West Hollywood are going to have you to thank when this is all said and done, my friend.  You have no idea what an impact this film is going to have on them.  Some of them have never even seen a ***** person before and most of them are underprivileged, and ya know, from broken homes and such.  You two are really going show these kids that anything’s possible in this ‘dog eat dog,’ ***** world.  I can’t wait to see their adorable little ***** faces when we premiere this puppy at the Weho GLBT Youth Center‘s film festival next week.  I just can’t wait!  Look at my arm, look, I have ***** goose bumps just thinking about it.  Ha, classic.” 

As Alice turned to make her way toward the living room, she stopped one last time and nodded.   “Role models, that’s what you two are, damn it!  You’re ***** role models.  God, I love this business.”

Bette walked over and slowly shut the door in Alice‘s beaming face.  Without taking her hand off the *****, she turned her head toward Tina and said, “You alreadysaidyes”

Tina: “I know, I know, I’m sorry, Bette, but it’s for the kids.  I just had to do it.”
