“It looks like Alana can swing it so the hostages are handed over to our ambassador in South Africa just in time for the 6pm news tomorrow night – perfect “
“Where are they now ?”
“On their way out of that hell hole. We are going to get medics to make sure they are all okay and debrief them “
“I question the wisdom of leaving it another 24 hours – it’s a long time “
“Meaning ?”
We are standing on the helipad close to our house facing each other. Ella is sleeping and I wish I could put her into her cot
“If you cannot see why Bette – then you really should be thinking it all through- I want to get Ella inside – come on “
Bette has no alternative but to pick up our bags and follow me as I stroll towards the house.
“Tina- they are safe “
“I am sure that they are – but don’t you think that its stinks for you to hold them back just so
as you can stage a prime time stage show ?”
“You were my Press Secretary – you would have told me to do it that way “
“Bette – just because I was your Press Secretary doesn’t mean I was always right. It was my job to make you look good regardless. Looking back I probably did things just for show “
“Another 24 hours gives them time to get used to being free and gives our people time to make sure they are alright “
“Do it whichever way you want Bette but personally I would have had them released in time for the morning shows “
“What ?”
I look at her “ You are getting a lot of stick in the press, the Republicans are dancing up and down on you. What you need to do is end the news cycle. Tomorrow will be yet another round of personal attacks on you . Someone picks up the papers in the morning and reads the attack on you and its over 12 hours before you change that agenda . I can see that you want to control when they are released but you should think about it Bette “

I love this story very much. I’m happy that you were able to retrieve some pieces of it. Great update!
They should be able to do a simple records check since death is a matter of public record. No matter what her name was her social security number wouldn’t change. If she needs to know, she needs to know. Although, I find it hard to believe nobody would have dug it up in investigating her past. I wouldn’t put it past Melvin/Kit to lie about it. They have always been very self-righteous in their actions.
Hopefully, you will be able to rescue the other L Wing chapters. Such a good, convoluted story. PPS.
let bette search for her mom; there needs to be closure for her and she hasn’t got that from kit and melvin. i think tina is an incredibly wise and supportive wife. Thx for this chapter.
Oh this is gonna be a good one coming up as it relates to Bette’s mother, etc. I don’t blame Bette for wanting to know about her mother and this is a very fine line that they must try to negotiate together. I would not for one moment doubt that Melvin is lying through his teeth. Someone needs to make inquiries without Melvin knowing. The man has a long reach and very powerful and could possibly stop a search if he finds out first that they want to search. This will be very interesting. Bette does have a right to know the truth. If Tina finds something out she needs to be totally honest with Bette even if it hurts, Bette needs to know the truth, no matter how awful. It’s called closure.Great chapter AllyE. Thanks for posting on the weekend and happy that you were able to find this chapter. Hope the others turn up for you also.
What a pleasant surprise . Posting a chapter after losing so much of your work to the hard drive. Thank You for your work and your story. I do hope Bette patches things up with Melvin and Kit at some point.
I know Tina is trying to do the right thing and keep Bette’s heart safe but dealing with this issue isn’t something that can be scheduled. Bette also needs to understand that she needs to be subtle about her searching she is the President after all (though when you are dealing with personal issues you rarely have any subtle options). I am so glad you got a chapter to rise from the ashes as I truly love your writing.
yes!!! another chapter…this has been one of my fav’s…thanks for updating
The L Wing is one of your crowning achievements. What an imagination!! I am in awe of your work.
catching up
WOW!!! I just hope Bette does not get hurt to badly if her mom is alive or dead!!! Thanks Ally
There Tina goes getting all authoritarian on Bette again. I know her intentions are good, but if I were in Bette’s situation I would want to know and as soon as possible. This is her mother after all, not something that should be fit in around a schedule of holiday parties. And will a delay really do anything to relieve her stress or will it add to it?
Poor Bette missing her mom. She can have mine. No, that’s not even funny. Sorry. Good that she has Tina taking care of her. I wish I have me a Tina too to help sort out my life. Sigh!
This is gonna be hard, neither Bette’s mom still alive or death, is gonna hurt her. Please post more, thanks!
Ally – I love the L Wing and am so glad you retrieved this from the computer monster. Tina is being very protective and for the most part honest in her conversation with Bette – it is a wonderfully sweet relationship ou have drawn and I appreciate it so much. Tina best not go behind Bette’s back in any way IMO or she could create a worse problem.
tina is trying to get bette back to being focused. i’m surprised that bette hasn’t instructed shane to make inquires right away. what if bette’s mom made melvin think she was dying and had him sent a fake death certificate so she could start a” fresh life” and melvin really thought she was dying…. bette needs answers and she should get them as fast as she can. Ally thanks for the update this just gets better and better :)PPS
This is one of my first comments on FanFiction… but i want you to know that you have such a way with words. This entire series of stories is fabulous… and it keeps getting even more interesting!!! I hope that Bette finds closure… and that Tina continues to be supportive and know that this is something that Bette does need to handle on her own terms…. PPS, like REALLY REALLY SOON!!!
