Second episode of the new Showtime series that follows the lives and loves of a group of friends in LA. In this episode Bette (Jennifer Beals) and Tina (Laurel Holloman) continue to wait and see if Tina will have a baby.

Actresses:
Jennifer Beals & Laurel Holloman


Beals and Holloman are at home discussing the upcoming (hopeful) pregnancy. Holloman decides to use the donor Beals wanted. Pleased by this Beals tells her 'I would love to make a baby with you' while kissing her. Beals' voice here is very sensual, as the viewer it seems she's very into what's happened between her and Holloman.

Actresses:
Mia Kirshner & Karina Lombard


Though not entirely sure of the order this scene occurs in, this is more of a daydream - a product of Kirshner's imagination. While sitting at her desk writing the scene cuts to a woman and man at a funeral holding hands. It is obvious they are lovers, possibly secret ones. The woman puts her hand into the man's pants. The scene remains the same, but the characters suddenly change into two woman. They are Kirshner and Lombard. They kiss and make-out until Kirshner snaps out of her daydream.

Actresses:
Jennifer Beals & Laurel Holloman


Building from the previous scene Beals and Holloman are both undressed with one sitting on top of the other on a bed. They proceed to make love after a bit of foreplay. This is a fairly extended scene. Unlike the first episode where there were a few graphic scenes, it is the only one in this episode.

Actresses:
Erin Daniels & Lauren Lee Smith


Another short scene where we see Daniels in a locker room. She is confronted by a chef (Lauren Lee Smith) at the club she trains at. Daniels has admitted to liking her. Lee Smith puts her hands on Daniels waist and kisses her while Daniels is against the lockers. She seems to do this to reassure Daniels that she is interested also.

Actresses:
Leisha Hailey & Guinevere Turner


Hailey is at a party where she meets up with ex-girlfriend Turner. After a bit of flirting Turner pushes Hailey against a wall and kisses her. This short scene cuts out after only seconds of this.

This episode was definitely not a disappointment, I enjoyed in nearly as much as the first (though there was less eye candy, and also didn't explore the Kirshner/Lobard dynamic much). Seems like this is going to turn out to be a great series.
