Shane: (smiling)…Well I’ll let you two get back to what you were doing…And when you get a chance come and check it out

Tina: (looking at Shane)…Ok…That is a good idea…I’ll walk you guys out…(Tina is cut off by Shane)

Tina: (looking at Shane)…Ok…(sticks her head out the bedroom door)…Goodbye you guys

Bette, Tina: Bye

The gang leaves…Shane makes sure to close the door after herself…Tina then closes the door and goes to sit down next to Bette…Tina takes Bette’s hand in hers

Tina: (looking at Bette)…Bette… I want to know why you didn’t come to me when you felt as though the pressure of the baby was so much for you…I want to know why didn’t you come yo me and tell me what you had done…I want to know how many times you and…(Tina is cut off by Bette)

Bette: Candace…(takes a deep breath)
