The L-Word What I Think Season 6 Episode 6 (Spoiler)

Season 6 – FINAL SEASON

Episode 6: “Lactose Intolerant”

Who the hell has a Willy Wonka’s Chocolate Factory baby shower, and WTF was Jenny doing with that damned HUMUNGUS lollipop? Was it me, or did anyone else want to rip it out of her hand and smack her in the face with it? Just to laugh when it gets stuck in her hair, LOL!! But in all seriousness….I thought the shower was a little weird, down to the diaper sniffing. WEIRD! I have been to quite a few baby showers, and I have NEVER played ‘Chocolate in a Diaper’, nor the guess how big momma’s belly is. Are these just LA games? Or have I been living under a rock? (this IS a possibility…) But I have to say, when Shane and Alice were huffing helium, I thought I would fall off my chair! That was HILARIOUS!!! “I want you to dump her.” “It’s not that easy Alice.” LOL! One thing I was wondering, why was Jenny so anti-Jamie? Did I miss something? She had a serious problem with her being there. I don’t understand that. I think maybe we are just supposed to just be hating Jenny more and more each episode, which makes sense…but still. (I am not liking Jamie for other reasons, which we will get to a little later) So as the party is progressing, Max is getting more and more worked up….almost like one of those applause meters on those silly game shows, the red part keeps on going higher and higher. Tibet was going on and on about the episiotomy and the cutting and the ripping and birth plans; Alice and her speech about single parenting, you could see the pressure rising and rising till……BOOM, she explodes. And is it a shock to anyone that she wants Tibet to take the baby? I mean shit, they DO have the money (that stroller was like a $1,000 dollar stroller, WITH A FUCKING DVD AND MANUAL!!), and they DO want another baby. A little side note – I also noticed they are all drinking Dos Equis, wonder how much they paid for that little product placement. Meanwhile Max is freaking out and they are all talking about the Xanex in the bedroom, and Diazepam in my bag, the Lexzapro in my purse…LOL…all for a pregnant man! How many sedatives do these girls take? Can I get one?! But even after all that, and after Max clarifying to Jenny that “He is pregnant, not she”…. He goes and shaves his beard off. Now what the hell to we call him, is he a she or she a he? I mean no disrespect to Max, or anyone transgendered or even gender queer for that matter….but WTF? Pick one sweetie!

As far as Dylan, who does she think she is freaking out about that test! She WAS the one that took Helena to the cleaners for everything she had, then ran away with her stupid boyfriend to go spend the money. Who is she to judge? If anything, you would think she would be happy that Helena even thought enough about her to test her. Helena could have just as easily walked away from her without a second thought, and she would have every right to. I know I would have! Dylan should be flattered that Helena even WANTED to trust her after everything she put her though. It’s funny, Bette says that she can’t believe that Jenny told Dylan about the test, and Alice says ‘What can’t you believe?’, that is exactly what I was thinking. Of COURSE Jenny told her, she has no idea when to keep her mouth shut and when not to. The girl has no censor. It was funny though, everyone’s jaw hit the floor, nobody could believe that Jenny could say something like that, to just spill a secret like that as if it wasn’t even a secret…LOL!!! Leave it to Jenny, good old Jenny. Then Jenny tries to “fix it” which just makes things worse. I did feel bad for Helena though, but damn she is witty with her come backs though. The rest of the party was filled with little pokes and jabs at Jenny, they all made me laugh. With that accent of hers, it is too cute when she is angry with someone. I feel bad though, she spends the whole rest of the episode drinking and just being depressed. Almost every scene you see Helena in, she has a beer or a glass of wine in both hands. She really doesn’t need to be so down on herself, Dylan deserved to be tested. Don’t worry Helena, if she truly loves you, she’ll come around.

As far as Bett e & Tina….there are a few things going on here. Firstly, I think bringing this girl to live with them may just be a big mistake. Not that I automatically think the worst of people….but I have a feeling this girl is going to come live with Tibet and realize how much money they have, and maybe take advantage of that. They ARE pretty well off…and judging by that girls house, she isn’t quite as well off. I just hope the girl’s intentions are pure, and she doesn’t screw Tibet over. They have had enough to deal with, trying to adopt and having stupid Nevada law prevent it and such. It would just be a shame….but it would bring Max’s baby and Tibet adopting together in a nice little perfect bow (that I have been predicting since we first heard Max was pregnant). Ok, so about the YIKES Dyke…LOL….that term is HILARIOUS! How the hell is that woman going to pretend she is so straight when EVERYONE knows she is gay? She is a Bull Dyke if I’ve ever seen one. And did she seriously ask Bette if Tina was her sister? Have you ever kissed your sister like that? I think not! Second thing I want to point out is how stunning Bette looks in this episode. She honestly looks happy, she doesn’t have that usual frown on her face. Her outfits were amazing, the heels she was wearing with the grey dress…damn, I could NOT take my eyes off her. Those legs, hair, ass, arms, lips…GOD! (let me stop before I get out of control…) I think she is really settling into parenthood, owning an art gallery and that whole lifestyle. It really suits her. I had my doubts about the Evil Kelly popping into the picture, then Tina going out of town. PLUS the little comments about how Kelly & Bette look like such a cute couple…but Bette took every chance she could to shoot Kelly down and remind her that she has a partner that she loves. Kelly just wouldn’t take a hint. Even came over Bette’s house after the show with champagne to ‘continue celebrating’, UGH, what a BITCH! All she wanted was to get in Bette’s pants (who could blame her!). It just made her so unattractive. And of course, who could forget the picture Jenny took of them from behind, looking like something it really wasn’t, Bette’s head moving, Kelly with her dress pulled up and her head back…that will become a BIG problem in the next episode. Tina will never believe Bette that nothing happened, which just SUCKS! Sometimes, it really isn’t what it looks like.

Ok, so Tasha/Alice/Jamie….WTF! Jamie needs to SERIOUSLY go away. Tasha is completely turned on by Jamie, Alice is turned on by Jamie, Jamie is turned on by Alice and Tasha….this just SCREAMS of 3-some. Which I really really really hope won’t happen. They are the only couple that hasn’t cheated or lied to each other. I honestly think they are perfect for each other. But as soon as Tasha saw Jamie naked….she went right in a got all kinky with Alice. The problem is, every other time they have had sex, I could feel the passion…except this time. Tasha is usually such a sensual lover, and this time it seemed like she was somewhere else….AHEM, in the shower with Jamie maybe?! Then Jamie gets out of the shower, and stands there and listens to Tasha & Alice have sex, looking all turned on. Who wouldn’t be turned on listening to them moan…jeez! Plus, at the party, Tasha just starts opening up about her parents and her past. I could see in Alice’s face she was feeling some type of way that Tasha never opened up to her like that. I really hope this relationship doesn’t end. Especially since the next episode is called “Last Couple Standing”….makes me REAL nervous.

There are a few things about Jenny & Shane this episode that I want to point out. I honestly think that Jenny got Shane that photo studio simply because that way Shane literally NEVER has to go anywhere else or ask anyone else for help. VERY controlling. But given Shane’s past, I can’t say I blame Jenny. But in Jenny’s defense, she really thought of everything, the natural light, the backdrops, the dark room, the white walls for a studio…AMAZING! I would LOVE to be able to give my partner something like that. It was an amazing gift, even if it was for selfish reasons….or maybe it wasn’t so selfish…who knows with Jenny. But it was a real nice way to spend a little of that half a million…don’t you think? Next we have the “taste of cum when you swallow it” comment by Jenny, referring to the oyster. I was drinking a glass of water when that part came and I honestly struggled to swallow, I was just gagging, UGH! GROSS!! Reminds me of the comment Bette made in season one. When her and Tine were coming home from the cryo-bank and Bette was on the phone with Alice and she said “I can’t believe I used to swallow that stuff, yuck”. LOL. Then of course Princess Niki shows up and whisks Shane away from the party…. WENCH! I have to point out the symbolism of Shane puking on Molly’s (who is Cybill Shepherd’s daughter in real life, FYI) photo though. Not sure exactly what it meant…maybe that Shane has fucked up so bad in the past, symbolically shitting on the people she loves. Then Niki is unable to handle sick Shane and she leaves, just for Jenny to arrive and take care of Shane. But there is a moment, in the bedroom, when Jenny walks to the door. In 6 seasons, I think that is the first time we really see the REAL Jenny Shector. Standing in the doorway, looking beautiful, and full of compassion and love, the way her hair framed her face. It was only for a moment, but what an amazing moment it was. I’m thinking that just may have been the only time someone has taken care of her. I have a feeling that may have changed Shane’s view on her relationship with Jenny. Maybe it isn’t so bad after all…?

HA! How handsome was the Drag Queen! Damn, take that dress off him and he is a manly man! LOL, it was hilarious that Kit didn’t even have a clue who he was. Even threw her drink in his face! LOL!! I think once Kit realizes who he is…they will make a cute couple. Cause as you remember from the Poppi days, Kit thinks she has a little lesbian in her. So maybe having a muscular brawny man, that happens to dress up as a woman will just tickle her fancy in the just the right way. She did have a crush on Ivan for the longest time… And the Drag Queen sure is crushing on her. You could see his face light up when Kit said she wasn’t in love with Helena. I hope they get together, Kit could use someone to keep her warm at night, someone to gossip with and feel safe with. Everyone deserves someone, and Kit has been single almost this entire series.
