The next morning, Marcus drops by to let Tina know that he has warned Lei Ling to leave Tina alone.  Soon after, Bette will arrive, back early from her trip to New York City.

Time progresses to another day.  It is another day at The Planet.

Marina talks with Alice, Shane, and Dana as Bette and Tina soon arrive.  Marina cannot help but think back to the sleepover and the sense of danger she suddenly felt as it concerned Dana and Lara.  For now, she continues to keep things to herself, focusing back on work as Bette and Tina proceed to bore Alice, Shane, and Dana with pregnancy details.  The good news is that Shane has access to Harry Samchuck’s yacht for a party on Friday Night.

While Alice, Dana, Shane, and Kit join Bette and Tina for some Buddhist harmony, Marina still has work to focus on, which is fairly uneventful.  At least there is Friday Night’s yacht party to look forward to.

Friday finally arrives and the yacht party is well underway by the time Marina arrives alone.  Shane is there with Mandy, at this point, still an occasional hookup.  Another of Shane’s old friends, Tess is also there.  Alice is there with Lis while Bette and Tina are also there, amused at Alice’s relationship with Lis.  Dana is also there with no Lara in sight.  Marina is quick to notice this, but says nothing for now.

As the party rages on, so does Dana’s drinking and dancing.  Alice and Lis are engaging in their own intimacy and having their issues about it.  Bette and Tina are escaping from the party under Bette’s ”cloak of boring.”  Shane is still Shane while focusing on Mandy and Marina is briefly saying hello to Tess, remembering her from when she was a regular at The Planet.

Tess ”Yeah, I’m pretty much between here and New York these days.”

Marina looks over, happening to see Dana looking out at the water that surrounds them.

Marina ”Always good to see you.”

Marina smiles and nods with Tess doing the same before going back to a dance partner.  Marina walks over to

Dana, who has just downed another glass of wine.  The sense of danger about Dana and Lara has now heightened.
