Syd has a flashback of her last family function.  All of the women•including Syd•are wearing traditional Muslim head-dresses and attire.

SYDNEY:  My sisters are very traditional Muslims•my "American" ways are not acceptable to them.  We don’t have anything in common except matching DNA.

SHANE: If ever had sisters, you all would be it.

They all toast.

ALL: To sisters!

ALICE: (continues the toast) In all senses of the word!

SYDNEY: Bette and Tina, are you thinking about making Angelica a big sister?

Bette and Tina exchange loving glances. They reach for each other’s hand.

TINA: We’re trying…

SHANE: That’s great…a toast.

They all clink glasses.

SHANE: And there’s a perfect example: it doesn’t matter who Angelica’s biological mother is, you’re both her parents.

They all nod in agreement.

KIT: But you know, I love you all and consider you family, but I have to tell you, as much as I consider you sisters, having this baby girl as my little sister is truly special.

Kit and Bette exchange a loving hand squeeze.

SYDNEY (buzzed from the wine) And see, that bond is eternal, despite what Doctor Orlando says.

Bette and Kit stare blankly at Syd as Syd sips more wine.  The group becomes silent.

BETTE: (to Syd) What do you mean?

SYDNEY: I mean you heard what Dr. Orlando said and it doesn’t matter•your family.

KIT: (becoming agitated) Well of course it’s all the same. Dr. Orlando had nothing but good news.

Syd’s expression sobers as she realizes she has revealed more than necessary.

BETTE: (concerned) Is there something Orlando didn’t tell us?  

SYDNEY: What did he say?

KIT: That there was no genetic match, we did not carry the breast cancer gene and everything else was normal and healthy.

Syd takes another gulp of her wine.  All eyes are upon her.

BETTE: Is there something else?

SYDNEY: Let’s chat in the morning?

Kit is becoming increasingly agitated.

KIT: We’ll talk now.  You promised you’d reveal everything.

Syd is desperate to change the subject.

SYDNEY: You are both fine, let’s the three of us talk in the morning.
