    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

     

    TINA:  Like a baby•I was up every two hours.

     

    Alice enters the kitchen and heads for the coffee.

     

    SHANE: (to Alice) Good morning. 

     

    ALICE: (coyly) Yeah, it must be.

     

    SHANE: What do you mean?

     

    ALICE:  Let’s just say the walls are a little thin and by the sounds of last night, you and Syd didn’t get much sleep.

     

    SHANE: Sorry.

     

    ALICE: (playfully) No you’re not!

     

    SHANE: Where is everyone?

     

    TINA: Bette and Kit went for a walk.  Tasha went running about an hour ago and Syd went running about a half hour ago.

     

    ALICE (kidding) Frankly I’m surprised Syd can walk today let alone run.

     

    TINA:  And I’m not really sure where Max is.

     

    SHANE: I’m going to go back to L.A. with you…until Christmas.

     

    They all look at Shane skeptically.

     

    SHANE: Syd is tied up much of the next few weeks, and she’ll be joining us in L.A. for Christmas.  We just thought it would be a good time for me to catch up with everything at home.

     

    TINA: I thought home was where Syd is?

     

    SHANE: (slightly defensively) It’s only for 3 weeks.

     

    ALICE: Don’t you think you should stay with Syd?

     

    SHANE: I don’t know, Helena thinks I should.

     

    TINA: No offense, but taking advice from Helena?  That woman can’t keep a plant alive let alone a relationship.

     

    ALICE (playfully) Well that explains last night•there’s nothing like good-bye sex.

     

    SHANE: It’s just so-long•not good-bye.  Syd says the only reason we part is to meet again.

     

    ALICE: If you say so.

     

    TINA:  Seriously Shane, Syd is terrific•if you botch this up, we’re keeping her.

     

    They all laugh.

     

    EXT. NEW HAMPSHIRE SCENIC RESORT ROAD – THE SAME MORNING

     

    Tasha is running at a good clip then pulls off to a gazebo at a scenic overlook.  She takes in the spectacular view for a few seconds then begins to stretch, using the railing of the gazebo for support.  Syd jogs up behind Tasha and joins her in the gazebo.  Syd is extremely winded. 

     

    TASHA: Where’d you come from?

     

    SYDNEY: (panting and struggling for breath) I’ve been chasing you down this mountain for 20 minutes.

    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!
