Would you like to hear something?

Oh, I'm stuffed.

I just came from Janet Tarzan.

You know how she feels, too.

Why don't you sit down?

A dirty story, I hope.

You know I don't write dirty stories.

Speaking of dirty stories, why something so rude?

A nudist magazine?

That's what it looks like on the outside.

Wait till you look inside.

Listen to this.

Marvin lowered Venora onto the silken sheet.

For a moment, he gazed at her nakedness.

Her fingers crept to where his muscular thighs joined his supple body.

She found his cryptic... I haven't seen Jess if I'm surprised at you. This is

pornography.

Right.

Let me look at this picture.

They look like they're really doing it.

They are. The camera doesn't lie.

What did you get these?

From Janet.

She's got a friend who gambles in this stuff.

Wait until you see the next photograph.

This picture.

One man and three girls.

One big daisy chain.

You know, people really don't do this.

The camera doesn't lie.

I think I'll have some of that tea now.

Hi.

You've been so involved, we've hardly had a chance to speak tonight.

I'm sorry, dear.

I do want to finish this, though.

Heard from Stacy?

Not yet. She should be back from New York, though.

I hope she got some bites on my new story.

Well, if she didn't, we won't starve.

I want to do something on my own.

You already have. You've sold two stories.

Pig Deal to Two Bishwater Dome Magazine for Housewives.

Stacy's submitting me to a couple of more sophisticated publications.

Well, I hope she comes through for you.

I'm tired. I think I'll hit the hay.

Good night.

Good night, dear. I won't be up too late.

You okay, honey? You cried out.

I had a nightmare.

Try to go back to sleep.

Now, about this.

Frankly, it's naive.

Three magazines read it and it just didn't go over.

Liz Walters over at Gantry Publications summed it up best, incredibly immature

and unexciting.

Betty, you're a good writer.

Then what did I do wrong? This is the best I've ever done.

Well, do you want me to tell you a Stacey Carter writer's agent or a Stacey

Carter good friend?

Why not straight from the shoulder?

Well, your relationship with men and women are absurd.

You know, sex does play a big role in your life, and you may hate me for

this, but I don't think you really know what sex is. I mean, really.

I just wanted to tell you how great it was.

No, it's good.

Okay, honey, what's on your mind?

I reread my manuscript, and you're right, it is pretty naive.

Well, perhaps you just don't have enough experience.

Perhaps you should look into the subject of sex in more depth.

Hi. I see you all the time. Do you live near here?

Right here.

I go to school three blocks away when I go. I cut most of the time.

I'm Tenny Sylvester.

I'm Mrs. Williams.

I'd better go. See you, Mrs. Williams.

Okay,

honey.

Heard from Stacy?

I heard from her yesterday.

They rejected my story.

Time's up.

Hi, Mrs. Williams.

Hi there.

This is my sister, Doris. Hi.

Well, we'd better go now.

How'd you like the book?

What book?

You know what book. The one I left for you.

Wild, isn't it?

I have a friend who deals in literature like that.

You know, I'd love to try some of the things in that book.

Yeah, I'd like to try something real perverted.

Wouldn't you?

We're meeting a guy this afternoon.

Yeah, we'd like to try three in a bed.

Four would be even better.

Oh, would you like to join us?

He's a really groovy guy.

When are you meeting him?

He's outside.

I wouldn't mind if I could just watch.

Just so long as you're nude and on the bed.

I just couldn't participate.

I'm not made that way.

Go out and get him. I just couldn't.

Come on.

Go into the bedroom.

Long piece goes first.

Take one, Betty.

I really don't want to. Oh, come on. Take one.

How do you want it?

I've often wondered about being raped. You know, being held while...

Betty and I will hold you down.

Okay?

Grab her.

I'd rather just watch.

Hold her tight.

Hold her tight.

Why don't you take a break? You look tired.

How about a game of checkers?

Checkers will do you a world of good.

Really relax you.

Hi.

Would you like some cookies and milk?

I wouldn't mind that. Not at all. What sort of work does your husband do?

He's a real estate broker.

That sounds awfully dull.

It really isn't.

What does your father do?

My parents are dead. I live with my sister and her husband.

Are you a writer or something?

How did you know?

By the mess around your typewriter. My girlfriend, her father's a writer, and

his table is always messy.

What are you writing about now?

Well, it's sort of an investigation.

Is it about sex?

How could you tell?

Oh, just a feeling I had. My brother -in -law, Jarman Perry, he's a writer, and

so is my sister.

And they're always writing about sex, habits, you know, between people.

In fact, Jarman has wrote two books about marriage and stuff like that.

Sounds like a very brilliant man.

He is, and very evil.

Evil. Yes, evil. Evil and violence.

May I have another cookie?

Kenny, perhaps you could help me.

Me?

Yes, I'm... Well, I'm interested in the views of the younger people on sex.

Kenny, have you ever had sex?

Yes.

Naturally, anything that she'd say would be in the strictest of confidence.

These cookies are delicious.

Oh, you know, I'll have to introduce you to Jarman and Doris. That's my sister

and her husband.

They only live a couple blocks away.

I understand from Timmy that you're both experts in sex.

Well, let's say we take an academic interest in sexual behavior.

We've collaborated with real experts in several books, so naturally we're

conversant on the subject.

Jarman has a file of data based on some birth rates today.

If you'd like to look into those files...

Perhaps you can give me a call.

Here's my card.

I'm sure we can be of a great deal of help.

Perhaps you're too proper to delve into such a subject.

I'm sure I'm not, Mr. Perry.

Come on.

What can I do for you?

I just wanted to apologize.

I didn't think you'd be as scared as you were.

I wasn't scared.

It looked like outright terror to me.

It's just that, well, I don't need anything like that.

I love Walt.

And I love Ed, but what did it hurt?

I just let my hair down and... Honey, look, it's fine for you, but for me,

well... No.

You're so damn pure.

You make me sick.

Say, I'm going shopping.

Would you like to come downtown?

No, I have a lot of work to do on my new script.

I think I'll take a ring check.

Okay, to do.

Mr. Perry, Betty Williams.

May I see you?

When? Tonight?

I'll be there.

Results of some of the psychological investigations from my last book.

They deal with unusual sexual patterns.

I trust the photographs don't shock you.

Oh, she'll bathe and massage you.

Going to bed?

Honey, I really... I should... Yeah.

I know.

Do you?

Do you, well, do you have a boy?

I mean, one that you make love to?

I have a boy I make love to sometimes.

May I, sometime soon, watch you and him?

I mean, I need it, just to observe, for my study.

I understand, but I'll have to ask Ralph.

When would you like me to arrange it?

Anytime soon.

Would you like me to get a boy for you?

Oh, I see. You just want to observe.

Can we do it at night?

How about tomorrow night?

All right.

If it's all right with Ralph.

Walt has a late meeting.

He won't be home till after midnight.

Alright, but we'll have to play it cagey as far as your office goes.

Hi, Danny.

Oh, I see you've been working. Well, that's always a good sign.

Oh, this is more like it.

Vivid images.

Very vivid images.

Danny, you've been practicing.

Just keeping my eyes open.

This is good.

This really turns me on.

And you say you got all this just from watching?

Just watching.

Well, if I had a place, maybe I could help you out in your inquiry.

You see, I have a very accommodating man friend who lives nearby.

Walt won't be home until late tonight.

He has another meeting.

Well, then you wouldn't mind?

No, I wouldn't mind.

I'll go.

That way you can have the place to yourself.

Well, I'll leave your report then.

Oh, hello, Victor.

This is Stacy.

Hi, babe.

Listen, I'm just a couple of blocks away over on 63rd Avenue, and I thought you

might like to come over for a couple of hours.

John? Oh, just a minute.

John's a very attractive guy.

Victor, bring John over with you anyway. I'm sure we'll find something for him

to do.

The address is 1774 Southeast 63rd Avenue, apartment 9C.

Okay.

Honey? You should stay.

I mean, you're starting to unbend and it's showing in your writing.

You shouldn't resist it.

No, I can't. I have too many problems already.

Well, okay.

I'll change the bed linens then before I leave.

That makes $4 ,250, you owe me, counting side bets.

You're much too good for me.

This is the way married people are supposed to act. I'm just sorry I have

work so late every night.

That's enough for me.

I've got to get back to work.

I think I'll take a hot bath, hit the hay.

Make love to her.

Make love to her.

Fine. I never... Would you rather I made love to her?

Do you play checkers? Yes, I'm very good at it. Would you like to play a game?

Why not?

Kenny, I love my husband very much.

And I don't want to lose him.

But I do want him to have an affair.

That's a switch.

Well, I guess it's my conscience.

You see, I'm having an affair.

And perhaps if I knew Walt was having one, then we wouldn't drift apart.

Well, what am I supposed to do about it?

Have an affair with Walter.

All right, I'll have an affair with your husband, but I don't want it to come

between our friendship.

And you'll have to be there to watch.

He would never agree to that.

But these are my conditions, and he doesn't need to know you, dear.

I could use Stacy Carter as an excuse.

We're supposed to go to New York.

No, I bet you're a louder checker player.

Walter?

This is Tenny Sylvester.

Tenny, this is my husband.

Mr. Williams? I'm sorry I stayed so late. But your wife and I played a game

checkers. And I really get engrossed in checkers.

Goodbye.

You little kid.

She's the sister -in -law of Jarman Perry, the publisher.

Publishing the old apple, huh?

Stacy thought it'd be a good idea.

By the way, I should pay Stacy a visit tonight.

She wanted to talk to me about writing some articles for women's magazines.

I had hoped you wouldn't be disappointed.

Well, that's okay.

I think I'll take a shower.

I've got a little homework of my own.

because I'm a very good player.

Your move.

Nice kid, Tenny.

Very nice.

Lousy checker player.

I love you, Betty.

Hello?

Daddy, listen carefully.

Our plan, you know, it must be tomorrow night.

I'll get there around 7.

Wait until, well, you know, then you can come in.

But... But, Penny... I have to hang up now.

Bye.

Penny?

Hi, Penny.

May I come in?

Sure.

Where's Betty?

Oh, she's out of town on a business trip.

Big black snake whip.

What do you do with it?

Oh, I use it.

I've used it on Diane, haven't I?

Sure hope Doris doesn't walk in and catch us. She'd tear the skin off of me

that thing.

Oh, no worry about it.

Have a good day, dear.

Yeah. How was your trip?

All right.

We have steak tonight?

That's good.

Okay. I'll leave a light on for you.

Hi, Doris. May I speak to Tenny?

I see.

Well, yes, it is important.

Could you have her call me as soon as she gets here?

Thank you.

Hello, Jarman?

Jarman, I...

Give

me one good reason why I shouldn't blow your brains out.

No court in the country would convict me.

Join us.

You're not with Walt?

No, you're not with Walt.

Betty, it's no good.

I don't know what you've been doing, but I know what I've done.

Hello.
