5 Spoilers -- A Complete Reference |
| Helena
From Season 4:“Cut off from her life of wealth and privilege
and unable to hack it in the working world, Helena is an absolute
wreck. Despite the generosity and heart-warming support of her friends,
Helena finds a life of restricted means too unbearable and delves
into a dangerous liaison in order to ensure her financial security,”
– from sho.com
Okay, what is happening to Helena? The changes that this character
went through from season to season sometimes makes me crave the
old, powerful, bitchy Helena from season two. Alas, it seems like
she’s gone forever.
In the beginning of the season Helena is in jail for stealing Catherine’s
money. Her mother is abroad and doesn’t know anything about
it because she can be reached only in emergency. Helena’s
new cellmate is Dusty who is described as a tough bad person, who
is using steroids. Dutch boxer-turned-actress Lucia Rijker, who
appeared briefly in The L Word's second season as Dana’s trainer,
has been cast in six episodes as Dusty and she also described as
a potential love interest for Helena. I guess, since they are sharing
a cell for half of the season, it is potential, only I don’t
see it as a love interest.
Peggy is still out of reach and Tina, Shane and Alice come to jail
for a visit. Even in this awful place Shane manages to make a connection
with someone. They all try to cheer Helena up and, of course, Alice
comments on the orange suit being Helena’s color. Nothing
can make Helena happy, though, because she only wants to hear from
Peggy so she could get out.
I guess we will see Helena in jail for at least 6 episodes. When
she finally gets out, Helena pretty much became a person who learned
to live without money and still keep her friends around. Peggy returns
and while she is admitted into the hospital because of the lethal
jellyfish venom, she believes she is dying and she wants Helena
to be rich again. Peggy even suggests to Helena to buy her friend,
I’m assuming she means Kit, a night club or two.
I hope Peggy won’t die because Holland Taylor is such a wonderful
addition to the cast and it is such a pleasure to see her again
after a season of absence.

Comments: So Sarah Shahi won't even be a guest??? :( I am still dreaming. Anyways, I love Kate Moennig and I wish this season would be less heavy for her chracter, Shane. I was thinking something like how Dana showed up on Alice's couch. It brought something old and yet something new at the same time.

Comments: I hate to say this, but I am not even going to waste my time. The show is starting to really suck. I give up.

From: Nilsa
Comments: By the way, Mia is a great actress. I'm tired of the same junk on that show. Most of it has that bony, slutty, scarecrow headed Shane getting laid, which is getting old.

Comments: I really don't think Bette and Tina will get back together, and thats a shame. They are the show for me. Dam you IC

Comments: First of all we've only seen Helena in jail for 3 weeks! Where are you guys getting this misinformation from? Another thing: The spoilers aren't even really spoilers as they only cover the first few episodes and then only tell viewers what they've already seen. Stop pretending as if you have an inside track because it is clear that you do not.

Comments: Shane is not a lesbian lothario by any stretch of the imagination. She's anorexic, suffers from intimacy issues and body dysmorphia. Who on earth would be attracted to such a walking/talking petrie dish of disease?

Comments: "L-Word.com is not affiliated with Showtime Inc. and no connection is expressed or implied."Obviously because these are the lamest non spoilers I have ever read. Sheesh all one needs to know is how to write a teleplay and they can predict more than what's already been shown. The spoilers on this site are equivalent to hearing a forecast for rain, being cuaght is that rainstorm and two days later reading on this site that there's gonna be rain.

From: aubgasmic
Comments: Actually, this is wrong.. Nikki never tries to look like Jenny at all, but it is true that they begin having an affair. It is ADELE that becomes Jenny's sidekick and even changes her appearance to look exactly like her. She's a sneaky little one.. almost as sneaky as snake Jenny.
