How about having Max run a background check on Adele? He finds out something that can destroy the life she created.

Jenny's experience this past season should help her become not only a better writer, but maker her become more aware of the people she allows in her life.

Bette & Tina - The soul mates of WeHo are taking it one day at a time. Tina's still in the film business - possibly with Peabody Films owned by Helena (you know, since she back in the green again and all). Bette remains the Dean of School of Arts at Cal U with loyal James at the front desk. She and Tina are more passionate with each other and Bette surprises the group by announcing her (Bette) pregnancy of their second baby.

Alice & Tasha - After getting rave reviews from fans and critics from her appearances on The Look, Alice gets a better offer from producers - her own talk show! Tasha is a beat cop and she is damn good at what she does using her experience from the military. She's comfortable in her own element as a cop and Alice is slowly but surely accepting Tasha's career choice because it makes her happy.

Helena - She and Cindi are obviously in a relationship after what happened at SheBar. And since she's back in the money fold, Helena followed mummy's advice and spends it willy-nilly but apprecitates the value of the dollar more. She buys back the studio as well as the rights to Lez Girls giving Jenny back her baby (let's not forget William is about business). With the studio being Peabody owned again (see the name in 'Bette & Tina'), she kicks Adele out on her ass, they keep the ending as is and Aaron is also fired. Helena gives Tina his position as CEO and Cindi as VP. By the way...what really happened between Helena and Dusty?

Shane & Jenny - She needs to come to terms with what she does and how it hurts the ones that love her. I too find it hard to swallow that Shane would do that to Jenny. They have a deep history that truly started, in my opinion, the morning Shane found Jenny in the bathroom cutting herself on the bathroom floor in the season 2 finale. After that it seemed that Shane became more a bodyguard for her. She deeply cared for Jenny; they were best friends in the deepest way. When Shane walked off the set with Jenny without hesitation shows how true of a friend she is to her; the conversation they had that evening over cannabis was something Jenny needed. I hope they can repair their friendship. That's a love affair in itself if I ever saw one.

Adele - Marveling in her carbon copy ego trip, Adele meets an admirer who impresses her and is given the job as her assistant (just like how she met Jenny). Little does she know the assistant is someone Jenny knows from back home who unbeknownst to Jenny, is there seeking vengeance for what Adele did to her friend. She starts by causing tension between Adele and Begoña. I figure if the wonderful writers and actors of this show are going to go with the All About Eve angle - take it all the way. What goes around comes around right? Someone from her past compromises her new life and is willing to go as far as blackmailing her to keep quiet. As if things couldn't get any worse.

Just a few ideas I wanted to throw in the pot.

Peace

Ilene please! give us more Jenniki next
season, this couple has revived my feelings
about the show!

Jenniki x season 6

Im all up for jenny and shane.
there has been foreshadowing since season 1!
it's about time..

from what i see in this clip i reckon bette is gonna be pregnant next season.OMG!
i wonder how its gonna be.
cant wait!! :)

I have started a discussion with a poster on www.tibette.com about the meaning of "Core" a few weeks ago. I thought I'd post it here as well. It could be one of the loose ends at the beginning of Season 6 or a storyline for Jodie, i.e letting her butt heads with Bette. At least I wouldn't mind because it's interesting. We want Alpha-Bette back anyway, don't we?

I still agree to Ilene’s statement that Jodie’s piece of art wasn’t plain vicious but at first view it wasn’t very well thought through by the writers either. It looks like not sticking to the core characteristics of Jodie any longer just for the sake of drama and that’s a pity, at least in my humble opinion. Okay, this show had some plot holes (e.g. Helena having siblings in Season 2 but all of a sudden being the sole heiress in Season 5) throughout the seasons but overall it was very well thought through. I’d say that’s one of the reasons why people love this show so much.

Nevertheless I feel a little bit disappointed because it doesn’t make sense in so many ways: First of all I’d love to understand how Jodie did it, when she is deaf and even more how could she do it on such a short notice? As you’ve said right from the start, she must have changed her mind about what she was going to exhibit at the Hammer museum right after the break-up or the writers forgot what they’d put in Bette’s mouth before. When episode 12 opens, Bette tells Tina that she has spoken to the curator of the museum who told her that the piece was amazing. Later, when Serena Dean welcomes Bette, she says: “I’m so relived you came after Jodie told me what the piece was …” As I mentioned before, someone please tell me how she managed to put this together. Maybe Tom helped her with the sound but still, how did she get the footage? Did she know long before that Bette would break up with her eventually and therefore wore some hidden camera and micro up her sleeve? Is Mark Wayland her nephew? We will probably never know…

But let’s get back to where it all began: When we were introduced to Jodie, she was this (imho not so) fiery, free spirited artist, who didn’t like kids and couldn’t do monogamy. For her, everything was desire and she didn’t give a damn about responsibilities. In her (presumably) first week at CU, she even had the boldness to deny her superior’s order to hide a controversial piece of art when a major right wing donor came to visit the studio. I acknowledge the necessity to show us the mutual attraction but also their differences as soon as possible. It was Ilene who wanted Bette to grapple with this relationship when she thought she was through with Tina. Jodie needed to be antithesis of Tina, so far, so good.

Going unnoticed by the viewers, Jodie fell head over heels for Bette and suddenly she was willing to change her attitude. Fine, who wouldn’t do that for Bette? But this is what I don’t understand at all: how can you claim to love someone, to care deeply for this person and brag about being able to read someone’s body language without ever noticing that there is something terribly wrong within your relationship? Jodie never seemed to notice the longing glances Bette and Tina were sharing as soon as they were close to each other; she never questioned Bette’s possessive jealousy in relation to Tina, Bette feeling uncomfortable with Jodie’s outspoken friends and most of all she didn’t even flinch when Bette pleased herself on top of her. Come on, women usually are VERY sensitive in picking up vibes but Jodie remained unaffected by all these anvils falling down like leaves in autumn. That’s just not believable, not even when you are a free spirit and laid-back.

I think Amy was not wrong when she accused Jodie for selling out to the hearing world. We don’t know what it means being deaf and maybe the impenetrable ice-queen Bette Porter was Jodie’s first hearing lover in a long time. To me it always seemed as if Jodie was in love with her own illusion of whom and what Bette was; a very beautiful, bright, powerful, successful, passionate and bold woman. She loved the outside of Bette but she turned a blind eye to Bette’s true inner self; her vulnerability. It was never more palpable to me than when she tells Bette by the pool that she wants her back, i.e. her mind, her body and particularly her heart, which so obviously never belonged to her. I don’t deny that she had feelings for Bette but in my opinion Bette was some kind of trophy and when Bette broke up with her she wasn’t willing to let go.

She acted like a spoiled brat, whom was taken away his favorite toy. I mean it was plain rude when Tina tried to apologize and she asks Bette: “Why is she talking to me, doesn’t she know I’m deaf?” And later even more, when she refers to Tina as “that woman”. Did she forget that she was asking “that woman” whether Bette had been moody with Tina only one or two days earlier? And later, when they start talking, she mentions “sex” first, “love” only comes later. To me it’s another hint to her being unable to understand Bette. Sure, Bette likes sex like any other human being but love and commitment have always been so much more important to her. Jodie only gets the message when Bette tells her that they will never find that special something which is hard to define because Bette has it with someone else. It could be that Jodie eventually starts seeing Bette in a different light.

Jodie is selfish to a certain extent but I never considered her as being malicious. After the break-up her feelings are hurt and probably she seeks redemption in creating “Core”. She wants Bette to feel her pain by humiliating her publicly but at the same time I see it as her eventually getting to the truth of Bette; as a celebration of Bette; just like an unknowing art lover would perceive it. If you look at “Core” in association with Tina, it becomes a whole different meaning. Jodie says this piece of art is about core values: Love, loyalty, honesty and commitment. All these values absolutely apply to Bette’s and Tina’s relationship: Bette has always loved Tina, remained loyal and committed to Tina even when she cheated with the carpenter and last but not least, she was also pretty honest all the time. When Tina found out about the carpenter she didn’t deny it and all along this dreadful journey to find her way back to Tina, Bette’s eyes never lied. Did you notice that Bette’s expressive eyes are very prominent in “Core”?

Let me quote Bette’s speech: “… I’m repeatedly in awe of her fearless choices, her total emersion in her process, her audacity which borders on defiance and her works of art, which actually seem to extrude from her subconscious mind. She’s make me believe all over again in the redemptive power of art…” When I now listen to Bette’s words, I ask myself if Jodie subconsciously knew from the beginning that they never stood a chance and therefore never bothered about all the things like longing glances I’ve mentioned above.

What if “Core” was helping Jodie to ease her pain, to getting over Bette and moving on as quickly as possible while offering Bette a strong reason to not feeling guilty anymore? If Bette really and totally can let go of being humiliated publicly is to be seen in Season 6. I’m anxious…

alice needs to leave tasha. she's dead weight, alice is just starting to develop this great new career whereas her girlfriend just mopes around wishing she were doing something more meaningful with herself. she puts alice down because she's a bitter little girl. GET RID OF TASHA!

no more nikki, thank god. i was so upset when they cast such a maxim girl, but i guess that was the point. the two of them together was NOT sexy, it was childish. jenny has such a sinister side that only someone like marina or random french girl on ski trip could compliment.

shane and jenny? perhaps.. i dont know why everyone hates on her. she's a dark little self absorbed bitch whose manipulation skills i admire! she gets what she wants, for the most part. her and shane together might just create this amplified ball of baggage that just might work. honestly though, i think jenny still likes the dick.

im fucking happy tina and bette are back in action, its about time.

Shalice is the real thing!! Please let it happen in S6.
I've already waited five years for it!!
There's so much potential in them since S1!! They have a very strong base, very strong relationship. They complement each other so well, so please let Shalice get it on already.
I want Shalice so badly. Please!!! IC, please, I beg of you.
Thx!

SHALICE S6

For a REAL lesbian couple, Shenny!

The "Dance of Hotness" and the Poolside Lovin'...Jennifer and Laurel are IT. Hot damn. They are truly beautiful together. Sex on a platter. Just total ridiculously gorgeous SEX. The "Floorgasm" was just simply mesmerizing and hypnotic. Wow.

More JENNIFER AND LAUREL in S6, please.

Looking forward to MORE TIBETTE SEX in S6...pool, shower, strap-ons, lapdances, the Revelation of The Beals...just bring it on! We are ready.

And um NO to pregnant Bette. That would just be a disappointing disaster of a storyline after waiting THIS long for Tibette to finally reunite. Please just give us lots and lots of Tibette sexing it up before we even get to baby talk.

And oh, no more fucking with Bette's wardrobe...just let her be that fly sexpot we all know and love. Jennifer is just plain fucking stunning. So please let her be...no more ruffles or haircuts. Bring back HOT Bette in '09.

Thanks.

i always have loved Jenny but now i just adore her, Niki has make her just so lovable, now it seems like jenny its one of the most populars characters of the show, this past season just belongs to her.

Because it's a real lesbian relationship! *waves pom poms*
