    Living Strong & Living Well – Part 3 – The Holidays

     

    SYDNEY: Someone’s at the door.

     

    Helena tries to wrap her arms around Syd and pull her back into the shower stall.

     

    HELENA: It’s probably just housekeeping,

     

    Syd quickly steps out of the shower and puts her robe on.  Syd hands the second robe to Helena.

     

    SYDNEY: It’s Shane and the others.

     

    HELENA: (panicked) Oh my God!

     

    SYDNEY: I’ll get the door.  You sneak back to your room•quickly.

     

    EXT: LAKESIDE MOUNTAIN CHATEAU AT A RESORT IN NEW HAMPSHIRE – CONTINUOUS

     

    Shane, Bette, Kit, Tasha, Max and Alice are standing on the porch.  Tina is holding Angelica.  Shane has her hands cupped around her eyes as she peers though the side door glass. 

     

    SYDNEY: (calling from inside) Coming!

     

    Shane pulls away from the glass.

     

    SHANE: (smiling) Here comes Syd.

     

    As Syd begins to open the door Tasha thinks she catches just a glimpse of something that looks like a white robe moving quickly through the open hallway above, but she cannot make out the figure.

     

    INT:  LAKESIDE MOUNTAIN CHATEAU AT A RESORT IN NEW HAMPSHIRE – CONTINUOUS

     

    Shane and the others step inside. 

     

    SYDNEY: I apologize, I was in the shower.

     

    SHANE: (playfully seductive) That’s a pleasant thought.

     

    Shane and Syd embrace and Shaine smiles broadly.

     

    SYDNEY: You’re early.

     

    MAX: Yeah, the weather lifted sooner than predicted.

     

    SHANE: (to Syd) Oh God I missed you!

     

    ALICE: Your were only back in L.A. a few days!

     

    Shane and Syd separate, but hold hands.

     

    SHANE: I know, but it seemed like an eternity.

     

    The group looks around the palatial chateau.

     

    ALICE: Wow, this place is awesome…look at that view!

     

    TASHA: (smiling sarcastically) What a shame Shane has to stay cooped up here to study while we work at the Habitat site?

     

    Shane strokes Syd’s arm and pulls her a little closer and playfully.

     

    SHANE: Believe me; I’d rather be joining you.

     

    KIT: Damn the weather.  I would’ve loved to have been here last night.

     

    SYDNEY: I’m sorry you couldn’t enjoy it, but you’ll at least have Sunday night here before heading back to L.A.•and we’ll be back here for Thanksgiving.

    1. I saw this pop up early in the week but waited to read it over the weekend. I wasn’t disappointed. I love this character’s maturity and passion for what she believes in. I relate to her wisdom yet insecurity–I mean, who hasn’t messed a bed to pretend it was slept in? I’ve read all the Syd stories (even re-read portions of the original re: the wonderful relationship conversation with Tasha and the revealing fireplace sceen). “Holidays” shows Syd’s vulnerable side. She’s still grounded, but unfocused and searching. Nicely written–it was a pleasant New Year’s surprise–thanks!
