“Henry. Henry, there’s so much more. You weren’t in court yesterday. Somethin’ happened. Somethin’ very, very terrible happened.”
“In the courtroom?”
“No, in Stephanie’s life.”
Bette and Tina watched and were certain when Theresa had told him what Stephanie’s father had done. Henry staggered backward, searching for something to catch him or at least brace him from the punch of this news. He moved to a bench and dropped down onto it. Theresa sat next to him, took his hand in hers. Tina saw her mother shake her head, listen to Henry, and speak to him. They couldn’t make out the words, but it was devastating news for him.

When Shane walked into the bedroom she and Carmen had been assigned, Carmen pulled her in. “Quick, help me move this thing to the bathroom door.”
Shane looked at the armoire and thought that even empty it was going to be heavy. “Why are we moving it?”
“We forgot. They can get out from this side.”
“What if one of us has to pee in the middle of the night?”
“We’ll just. . .I don’t know. They have to sleep.”
Shane stared at her. “So, what you’re sayin’ is we move this and then in the middle of the night, in the dark, with a desperate need to pee, we’re supposed to push this out of the way.”
“Let’s just think about that tonight. You know, there are bathrooms all over this house. It’s not a big deal, but keeping them inside is.” Carmen put her hands on her hips to let Shane know that they weren’t going to discuss it further.
“All right.” Shane stepped to the side of armoire next to Carmen and put her shoulder into it. Moving the armoire was like trying to lasso and coral an elephant–slow going.
“You know, Carm, I didn’t think we could pull this off in such a short time, but so far, it’s working.”
“The beauty of not planning. People fuck up when they think they’ve covered everything. I know we’ve forgotten stuff, but I think it’ll work out. I really do. Dana and Alice belong together.”

Early Merry Christmas to us for getting an update! *doing a happy dance* Be back at some point for a real comment. lol
I’m really pleased to see a new chapter so soon. Excellent plan by Shane and Carmen to get Al and Dana back together. I have a good feeling that it’ll work. Dylan and Hels, what can I say? They’re hot. I dunno how they’re going to get rid of Danny completely, but I’d think besting him would be easy, because he’s a complete idiot. Can’t the Peabody billions just hire a couple of thugs to muscle his sorry behind out of LA? Bette and Tina: Eureka! I think Porter’s got it! I cannot *wait* for Nicastro, Colley, Marcos and any other hatahs to get put in their place. And last but not least, you actually made me like Henry. Maybe it’s Christmas cheer, maybe it’s that you gave him a heart. Either way, I’m very glad you posted, great chapter, and dare I ask that you post again soon? Why yes. Yes, I do. (She who dares, wins!) Post soon, please!

You made me happy Portia and my monday a little less dreary! Merry X-mas to me!
Thank you for posting this chapter. Happy Holidays!
Shane covered her mouth with her hand to keep from laughing. When she was six or seven, she thought that the words lavatory and laboratory were the same words. Her father had caught her with a glass Pyrex dish and a steak knife in the bathroom on her knees, pulling her poop out of the toilet to begin some experiments in her laboratory. She recalled that her dad threw away the baking dish. – LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!! Nicastro has got to GO! At least Bette got the ok from Henry to see Tina and that Bette is working on a plan. Helena and Dylan was freakin’ HOT!!!!!!!
Ahem…”I only know what I know…the passing chapters will show…you’ve kept TiBette love so alive and so new…cause time after time you’ll hear me say that I’m so lucky to be reading you…Thank you!
Here’s my vote [X] for best reconceptualization of Season 3. I raise my glass in toast to your excellent series. Thanks Portia!
Brilliant. I like the ending of this chapter soooo much better than the last. Lots of good scenes in this chapter from funny to sexy. Thank you so much for this top notch story.
The day seemed to end too perfect for B&T what drama do you have planned next? I just want Tina to get better and get up out of that hospital real soon. Stephanie is going to get the help she needs in jail if she keep taking that man’s money. Thank you for another wonderful chapter.
What a brilliant chapter. I’m glad that Bette didn’t end up in the slammer! I can’t believe that Whit wouldn’t have thought of the new Power of Attorney if that was plausable…I’m not seeing that as a viable option,,,get to the retreat, Bette!
Beautiful story! Helena & Dylan are hot!pps. thank you!
