    Author Notes:

    The “Holidays” continues the story of the refined and rebellious Dr. Sydney Livingston•passionate about her causes, love and life. In this segment, the serious Syd deals with the dual loss of her career and her mysterious long-time partner. It is a time of uncertainty as Syd pursues uncharted romance waters, and a time to discover a fresh identity in the world of her new L-Word friends

     

    BETTE: What is your heart into these days?

     

    Tina sticks her head into the room.

     

    TINA: Ten minute warning before dinner is served.

     

    SYDNEY: It smells delicious

     

    BETTE: We’ll be right down.

     

    Tina leaves.

     

    BETTE: We’ll continue this conversation later, but, before we leave, I want to tell you that Kit received the results from Doctor Orlando.  Have you received them?

     

    SYDNEY: Yes, I just picked them up off my email about an hour ago.

     

    BETTE: Kit will want to discuss it with you in the morning.

     

    Bette moves to stand but awkwardly spills her glass of wine on her blouse.

     

    BETTE: Shit, god-damn it!

     

    Syd hurriedly hands Bette a napkin and helps sop up some of the liquid from the front of Bette’s blouse.

     

    SYDNEY: It’s OK, you have time to change.

     

    BETTE: (motioning to her arm in a sling and her blouse that has numerous buttons down the front) Not with this…I’m a total klutz with buttons.  Tina and got me into this get-up. I smell like a distillery.

     

    SYDNEY: I can help, com’on.

     

    Syd and Bette leave the living room.

     

    INT. CHATEAU BEDROOM – A COUPLE MINUTES LATER

     

    Bette is sitting on the bed. Syd stands above her removing a fresh blouse from the hanger.

     

    BETTE: I’m not certain I should accept your help.

     

    SYDNEY: I’m a doctor Bette. (Syd releases Bette’s sling and begins unbuttoning her blouse.) I’ve seen many naked bodies in my time.

     

    Bette watches in the mirror as Syd removes her blouse.  Their eyes meet though the looking glass for a brief moment

     

    SYDNEY (continues) Including your naked body when I treated you for your stroke.  (smiling) I assure you there is nothing here that I haven’t seen before. (Syd notices Bette’s embarrassment in the mirror as she replaces Bette’s blouse and begins buttoning the fresh garment)  I think I made you blush.

     

    BETTE: No, I’m just flushed from the wine. I assure you, I’m not that shy.

     

    Syd re-attaches Bette’s arm sling.  She fluffs Bette’s hair back to normal and moves in front of Bette, looking down at her.  Syd gently places her hand under Bette’s chin and tips her head so they are looking at each other.

    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!
