Kit ”Bette, I love you…and I’m tryin’.  I’m really trying.”

Bette smiles, hugging her older sister.  Tina now stands.

Bette ”I know.  And I want you to keep trying.  Okay?”

Kit nods.

Kit ”I will.”

Tina reaches in, giving Kit a supportive hug as well.

Kit ”I wanna make sure there’s an Aunty Kit around for ya little baby.”

Kit smiles.

Kit ”Imma go home now.  Thanks for hearing me out.”

Bette ”Kit, you know Tee and I here for you.”

With a peaceful resolution between the Sisters Porter at Bette and Tina’s, The Planet continues on with its party.  Alice and Gabby make out while Shane does her best to ignore the situation, talking with a girl named Lori who had noticed Shane recently at a party while with her now ex-girlfriend.  As they talk, Marina sees Lacey approaching the stage and is able to obstruct her.

Marina ”What did I tell you?”

Lacey ”I just want to talk to her.”

Marina ”The last time you talked to her here, you shoved a camera in her face and brought drama.  You do remember what I told you?”

Lacey clinches her fists and looks down.

Lacey ”Shane’s a bad person.  She breaks hearts.  She uses people!  Why are you defending her???”

Marina ”Because she is my friend, and that’s what friends do.  Now if you have an issue with Shane, you are free to talk with her, but will not, I repeat, not ruin our evening here.  Do you understand?”

Lacey ”…”

Marina ”Do you understand?”

Lacey looks down.

Marina ”What is your name?”

Lacey ”…Lacey.  I know.  I’m just another of the many nameless victims of Shane McCutcheon.”

Marina ”Lacey?  You are not a victim.  No one is a victim of Shane.  Everyone here knows what she is about.  Are you telling me you did not know?  Did she promise you a relationship?”

Lacey ”…”

Marina ”Did she?”

Lacey ”…No.”

Marina ”I want you to go home.  I want you to think about this before you choose to do something irrational, especially here.”

Lacey ”…It was supposed to be different with us.  With me.”

Disappointed, Lacey turns and walks away with Shane none the wiser of the situation as she continues talking with Lori and the inevitable tryst between them.
