INT. - DR. ISABEL DE OBALDIA'S OFFICE - DAY [Helena Peabody sits on a couch across from her shrink, Dr. Isabel de Obaldia. The telephone rings.] [Titlecard: New York City, Present Day] Isabel: (phone) This is Doctor de Obaldia returning his call. I'm in session for the next 45 minutes. [The call ends. Helena looks at the doctor.] Isabel: We need to talk. Helena: Isn't that why I'm here? [Helena slowly takes off her jacket.] Isabel: Please don't do that. Helena: What am I doing, Isabel? Isabel: You know exactly what you're doing. [Helena sits back and crosses her legs.] Helena: Are you ashamed of what happened? Isabel: It was profoundly wrong, I... I could lose my license. Helena: I would never do that. Isabel: I have a responsibility to you. And I abused that responsibility. (hesitates) I'm sorry. Helena: I'm not. How is it wrong... Isabel: It's absolutely wrong. Helena: ... to act on desire, when we are both suffocating from it? When it harms no one... when it's so... fucking... excruciating? [The doctor stares at her. Helena gets up and slowly walks over.] Isabel: But I have done you a great disservice. Please. I am asking you to sit back down. [Helena slowly leans over Isabel and kisses her neck.] [Isabel sighs in ecstasy. Helena raises her to her feet and they kiss hungrily. Helena begins to take Isabel's jacket off.] Dialogue from L-Word Transcripts
