(dark jazz music)

- Dear Red Shoes,

try to envision a train on a track.

One direction, no diversions,

no time for delay.

- [Woman] I was just like that.

I worked during the day,

and at night I went to law school.

My life was completely planned out,

very organized, very predictable,

until the unexpected happened,

forcing me off the track

and into a head-on collision with myself.

(acoustic guitar music)

- Have lunch with me.

- Excuse me?

- Have lunch with me.

- No, I'm sorry, I really have a lot of work to do,

and I have the phones.

- How about dinner?

- No, I can't, I have a class.

- Or tomorrow?

Please.

- No, seriously.

- Seriously?

(muffled whisper)

- Gloria.

Can you do me a favor?

I'm gonna go on my lunch break, can you cover me?

Great.

(phone ringing)

(bell dinging)

Lobby please.

(dramatic jazz music)

- Is it still today, or is it tomorrow?

Must be tomorrow.

It can't be today, because,

today you were too busy to have lunch.

- Well, I guess I was hungrier than I thought.

(bell dinging)

(tense jazz music)

(gasping)

(dramatic instrumental music)

- Sorry guys, false alarm.

- Hold the door please.

Excuse me.

Hello.

- Hi.

- Are you okay?

- Oh I'm fine, why?

- I don't know, you look flushed, feverish.

I'm thinking a bowl of hot soup would fix it.

How about it?

- How about what?

- Having lunch?

Are you feeling better?

- Much better, thank you.

- Tell me about yourself.

Tell me what you're thinking.

- Why?

- I'm interested in you.

You are beautiful.

- No, I'm not very beautiful.

- Yeah.

Yeah that's better.

You're really beautiful.

How about having dinner with me, tonight?

- No, I can't, I have a class.

- What class?

- Well, it's not really a class,

it's sort of a group study.

I'm studying for the BAR.

- When I was studying for the BAR,

there came a point when I realized

I was as prepared as I was ever going to be,

and what I really needed was to relax.

- Well, unfortunately I really don't think

I'm at that point yet.

- The sad thing is,

nobody ever thinks they are at that point yet,

but they are.

And they still have to eat.

- [Trudy Voiceover] Dinner was great.

Dinner the next night was great, too.

And the night after that,

and the night after that.

Can I ask you a question?

- Yes.

- Why me?

Why?

- It could be the way you taste.

You're lower than me.

Your chin.

Your hair.

Your shoulder.

Your neck.

The way you smell.

Your thigh.

Your foot.

This ankle like wine.

(laughing)

And of course your mind.

(ominous music)

(gasping)

(dramatic orchestral music)

- [Trudy Voiceover] One heart, two beats,

double the dilemma.

Two times the confusion.

Kyle and Phillip,

Phillip and Kyle.

I was breaking all the rules.

(gasping)

(dark instrumental music)

Oh, Kyle they're beautiful.

- Only that one's from me.

These are from someone else.

- Let's see who they're from.

They're from my mama.

- Roses?

White roses, from your mother.

- Ever since my 15th birthday.

- It's your birthday?

- Uh huh.

- Happy birthday baby.

Let's go out and celebrate.

- Oh, I can't.

- Why not?

- Because I'm having dinner with my mom.

- All right, tomorrow then.

Tomorrow night we'll go out, go dancin'.

We'll have a good time.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah?

- Okay, yeah.

- Okay.

We'll have a good time, I promise.

- Okay, yeah.

- [Trudy Voiceover] I lied.

I told him I was having dinner with my mother,

when in fact I have a date with Phillip.

Kyle and Phillip,

Phillip and Kyle.

(upbeat dance music)

- If I memorize my life, (muffled).

The guys have a lower IQ than you, anyway.

(muffled speaking)

(muffled speaking)

That's what I get them.

I said I'm an actor (muffled).

You pass the flambe (muffled).

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah.

(upbeat dance music)

(thunder rumbling)

- Trudy, I would like to find a way for you to relax.

I would like to take you away after the exam.

- I'd like for us to go away together,

after the exam, of course.

- Jamaica, Bali, your choice.

- A trip down to Baja,

a motorcycle trip.

- Oh and before I forget, dinner Friday night,

there is some friends I would like you to meet.

- Wow, that sounds great but--

- I won't take no for an answer.

- Seriously hot ticket, and I won't take no for an answer.

- Please.

- Please?

- I, um.

- Trudy honey, are you all right?

- Trudy, what's wrong?

- I'm, I'm fine.

I'm fine.

(late night jazz)

- And I have the perfect accessories

to go with this dress.

Oh you look magnificent.

There we go.

Seriously gorgeous, don't you think?

- Absolutely.

- I don't know, I think it might be a bit tight.

- Oh no.

(laughing)

- Let me see that.

You should try it without the underwear.

- Okay.

- Bring those shoes I chose.

- Of course.

(group laughing and chatting)

(late night jazz)

- So, Phillip's told me so much about you.

- Really? - Yeah.

He said that you're studying for the BAR.

- Yes, yes.

I don't know, I don't know if I'm really ready yet.

- You what?

- I've been a little sidetracked.

- Sidetracked?

By whom?

By Phillip?

- No, by choices I've made recently.

Thank you.

- I don't understand.

What are you saying?

- What am I saying?

What does it matter what I'm saying?

Who knows why I got sidetracked, but I did.

Who knows why I'm sitting here in a red dress

that I despise?

Who knows why I didn't say no, when he bought it for me,

but I didn't.

I don't know, if someone came up to me and said,

"do you want to go bunjee-jumping

"off a hot air balloon on your lunch break?"

I'd probably say, yes.

If someone said, "do you want to fuck in an elevator?"

I'd probably say yes to that too.

I mean, suddenly no is becoming yes,

my whole life before was no,

and now it's only yes, yes to everything.

Do you understand that?

- Yes.

- Yes!

Yes, it must be biological, or chemical,

or maybe I just need to get out of this dress.

I really hate this dress.

(laughing)

Don't, let's get some air.

- Right.

- Let's be--

- Stop this shit.

- Ask me what I'm feeling.

- Sweetie.

- I am not your sweetie.

- Trudy, come with me.

Come on.

- No no no no no no no, don't don't don't.

- How can you do this to me in front of my friends?

You get back to that table right now.

- No no no, no no no.

- I don't understand, you were always so sweet.

What happened?

- I'm not what you think I am, Phillip,

and I'm definitely not sweet.

- What's going on?

What's going on, what did I do?

- Phillip,

it's not about you.

It's about me.

It's only about me.

(late night jazz)

- [Phillip] Hold the door, hold the door.

- Excuse me.

(bell dinging)

Hey.

(bell dinging)

(eerie electronic music)

- Trudy?

- Hi.

- What?

- Phillip, meet Kyle.

Kyle, Phillip.

- Hi Kyle.

- Hi Phillip.

- I think you two have met before.

Listen, I don't know exactly how to say this,

so I'm just going to say it.

I've been seeing the both of you.

(bell dinging)

You know, it's just that I like you both so much.

Too much.

And there are two of you.

It's just become too confusing for me.

I'm sorry.

- [Trudy Voiceover] The question

I'd like to ask Red Shoes is,

does what I did make for happy or a sad ending?

I liked them both.

I seriously liked them both.

It's just that they came at the same time,

and the wrong time.

- The good news is, once the dust settled,

I went back to class, caught up, and passed the BAR.

If you ever need a good lawyer,

just give me a holler.

What do you think fella?

You want my opinion?

(dog barking)

I think it's possible to be crazy

about two people at the same time.

It's not something you plan on.

It's never something you look for.

It just sort of happened.

Just like that.
