Kit and Angus say little, only enjoying the tranquility and the hope for tomorrow as Angus plants a kiss on his own left middle and index fingers, before placing the fingers near Kit’s belly button.  He’s with her, fatherhood or not.  Tina meanwhile continues to glance over towards Bette and Helena.  Dana lays her head on Alice’s left shoulder and helps Alice massage Lara’s feet, who are in Alice’s lap.  It’s a nice feeling that conflicts with the uncertainty across the aisle.  Carmen can no longer watch, opting instead to close her eyes and try to rest with her arms crossed.  For just a moment and in spite of foot treatment from Alice and Dana…who kiss each other on the lips…Lara is tempted to jump over to the empty seat beside Carmen and talk with her.  But she just can’t do it…

Bette and Helena mostly talk in whispers to each other’s ears in an effor to keep their conversation private.

Helena: Are you sure Tina’s going to be okay?

Bette: I have no idea.  Last time she broke up with a guy she wound up with me.  So this is new territory.

Helena: Aren’t you at least concerned…?

Bette: …No more than I need to be.  She’s the birthmother of our child.  So I automatically hope that she doesn’t get too depressed or anything, but…I am not about to provide myself as her rebound.

Helena: I’m not asking you to, Bette.

Bette: I’ll still be there if she needs to talk to someone.  But…I’ve come to realize that I need to move on.

Helena: And when did you realise this?

Bette smirks.

Bette: Recently.

Helena: Well that’s an intriguing answer.

Bette: It’s an intriguing time.  I mean look at us.  We’re across the aisle from a fucking menage a trois in progress.  We’ve got people leaving in the middle of the ski trip.  We’ve got mixed signals all over the place and poor Carmen over there seems more heartbroken now than when she broke up with Shane some weeks back.

Helena: I know…it concerns me.

Bette: Well if the dinner was any indication, she doesn’t seemed too thrilled about Alice and Dana’s latest idea to spice up their relationship.

Helena: What about Lara?

Bette peeks over to Lara, whose feet are still being caressed by Alice and Dana, but whose eyes are focused on Carmen, whose eyes are closed.  Bette looks over at Helena.
