Marina del Rey is a singles community located along the coast of Southern

California, some 20 minutes by freeway from downtown Los Angeles.

The sun always shines in Marina del Rey.

The effect is sensual.

What can I do? I really got my temperature

rising.

Yes we do.

Most of the residents of Marina Del Rey live in high -rises, built like so many

balmy club meds around a sunny, snug harbor.

When the warm Santa Anas blow in from across the desert, Everyone seems to be

affected.

Sex becomes as certain as gravity.

Sometimes people even fall in love.

The secret of success in picking up women is the line. It must be credible.

This is Walter Finsick, newly arrived in Marina del Rey and trying to fit in.

In high school...

Walter carried a slide rule attached to his belt and told puns instead of jokes.

Now, a dozen years later, he holds six patents for microcomputer circuits and

is a multimillionaire.

More than anything else, Walter wants to learn how to pick up girls.

Do you come here often?

Sorry.

Here's Herb, the hired handyman.

Herb can fix anything.

Right now, he's on his way to fix a leaky faucet.

My name is Honey.

I'm the one on top.

It's my faucet that needs fixing.

I'm the building's hired social director and stay fit through aerobics leader.

I also sell vitamins on the side.

I know everyone in the building.

The one on the bottom is Faye, in from Las Vegas on a visit.

Faye and I were showgirls together.

and we still keep up our friendship.

There's Lonnie, the girl Walter dreams about but can't seem to get up the nerve

to ask on a date. What Walter doesn't know is that Lonnie would jump at the

chance to meet him.

Jane is Lonnie's roommate.

She's quiet and works part -time in a library.

You know, you really shouldn't do that with the drapes open.

Lonnie's dream is to be a serious actress.

Today, she has an interview for a television commercial.

Professor Barry Kern lives right below Lonnie and Jane.

Professor Kern teaches at the local college.

Barry's course is the most popular on campus.

It's called Sexual Practice in the 20th Century, and there are rumors of special

projects.

Over Walter lives Skip Sims, one -time king of Malibu Beach.

Skip's record of 18 girls in one day still holds.

Life goes on at the Del Capri.

the leaky faucet.

I'm not going to go in to get her answer.

Who do you think it is?

I don't know.

I don't know. I don't know. She's cute.

Hi, honey.

I came to fix the faucet, but it's not the right time. I'll come back later.

The one in the kitchen.

Does your money get in here?

It's only her.

Mmm, man.

That honey. She has some tits.

Mmm. Mmm.

I looked through the door when you let him in. He's cute.

Huh? You think he'll want to?

I don't think he did.

Want to have some fun?

Yeah.

What's that?

What are you doing?

Sounds like two girls.

Is the water ready yet?

I was just fixing it Then

I'll wait

I'm not bothering you, Emma.

Oh, no.

How would you like to meet my girlfriend, Faye?

Sure.

This is my friend, Fay.

Hi.

Isn't she sexy, Herb?

Fay's come all the way from Las Vegas just for a visit.

Great. Why don't you join us?

We'll be in the bedroom.

And watch your head.

Oh.

Thank you.

Goddamn, 9 .30 in the morning.

What the hell is that jock doing up there?

I'll get it.

Okay.

So? I live downstairs.

Right underneath.

My name is Walter.

You want a beer?

Okay. Thanks.

Smoke pot?

No.

But, uh...

Wants to... Well, maybe the... Sure.

Sure. Yeah.

Come on, Walter.

I've got a couple of friends I want you to meet.

Yeah? Yeah.

You read Playboy magazine?

Yeah. Yeah? Yeah.

You're going to like this.

This is Corey.

Hi.

This one here is Janet.

Hi.

Hello.

There's somebody, uh, I'm kind of tired.

You mind taking these girls down to your place?

Are you kidding me?

No, no, hell no.

You'd be doing me a big favor.

I mean, uh, what are neighbors for, eh?

You're right.

You're right. Yeah.

Yeah.

Ladies, welcome to my house.

Big tits.

Thank you.

Lonnie Alexander.

I'm 22, and I was a cheerleader in Homecoming Queen in high school.

I was also Little Miss Mission Viejo and a California State Lifeguard at Laguna.

I also studied acting and computer science at junior college, and I'd love

a part of the entertainment business.

That's fine.

Uh... Lonnie.

Lonnie.

Now, could you lay down on those tires and do some poses for me?

How's this?

Fine. Now would you take your clothes off?

But I thought this was for a snow tire commercial.

It is.

And you do want to be considered for a part, don't you?

Sure.

Then do it.

Drop your hands.

Remember Jane, Lonnie's roommate?

Underneath, there's a completely different woman.

Check these out.

You're studying to be a writer?

Yeah, kind of teaching myself.

I figure you're watching a Falcon Crest from Chips. You ought to be able to

write one, eh?

I'm just trying to learn.

There is another book I could recommend.

I'll write it down.

You know, you look kind of familiar.

Do I know you?

We live in the same apartment building.

Marina Del Rey?

That's where it is.

You, um...

You work here all the time?

Only part -time.

Uh, listen, you, uh, want to do me a favor?

Don't tell anybody my name's Stewart, okay?

Don't be a kid.

Do you know how little girls get started in show business?

I wouldn't know. I'm not a little girl. I'm an actress.

Actress, schmactress.

You know, this town is full of pretty girls who all want to be actresses.

What it takes is a break.

Did your agent tell you about the theories I might get?

Couldn't I just read for the part?

Read for the part?

That's not the way it's done.

Look, be smart.

Do yourself a favor.

This could be the biggest thing you ever did for your career.

Do you promise I'll only have to do it once?

Just once?

Sure. Just once.

You've never done this before, have you?

No. No.

Oh, you're in for a special treat.

Ah.

Ah! Ah! Ah!

That was great.

You wore me out.

What about the part in the tire commercial in the series?

Sure, I'll keep your application.

I have some other women to see.

Thanks, Lucy. I'll be in touch.

Lucy?

You son of a bitch.

Oh, shit. My name is Lonnie.

that you'd take such an interest in your students, Dr. Curran.

I wish more teachers did.

Where are we going?

Oh, that's my place.

I'm going to get extra credit for this.

I don't know how to say it.

Can I?

Can I?

I need to put my... What?

My... Between my tits. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's it.

Yeah. I want you to.

I want you to put your cup between my tits.

Oh.

I'm afraid to move.

I've used too much up.

I just want to make it last.

Shall I move?

Shall I just come?

I'd put them between my legs and squeeze.

I could get off that way.

Then later when I started wearing these tight jeans, I'd walk so that the seam

pressed inside me.

I can come when I sit in class or even when I walk.

My class?

All the time.

And, uh...

When did you first start having feelings for Diana?

Well, we live in the same dorm.

And I think we've always liked each other.

Sometimes when Diana would come over to study, she'd wear panties and a top that

wasn't buttoned all the way.

And then she'd bend over and I could see her breasts.

They're really pretty.

You know, I wondered what it would be like to touch them.

It got me really excited just thinking about it.

Why don't we begin by having you open your blouse?

Showing Lisa your breath.

What would you like to have happen next?

I don't know.

I do.

I want to touch him.

Is that all right with you, Diana?

Yes.

All right, let me guide you.

Why don't you start by kissing each other?

Again.

Put your arms around each other and brace.

Lisa, why don't you fondle Diana's breasts, play with them,

caress them.

Lisa, why don't you go down and kiss Diana's breasts?

Okay, why don't the two of you just help each other off with your clothes?

Leif, I'd like you to take your finger and put it between Diana's legs.

Tell me if she's wet.

She's very wet.

That's very good.

Is it as hard, Diana?

Yes.

I do exactly the same thing to Lisa that she's doing to you.

We masturbate each other.

You okay?

Yeah.

Good night, Dad.

All right, now, uh... Diana, give Lisa a head.

Come on.

That's it.

Just spread her open.

God, Diana.

Hello, Professor Curran. I brought the vitamins you ordered. Oh, that's great.

Thanks. Well, what are they?

Well, let's see. There's the vitamins.

Do you mind if I come in?

Well, it's nice out here.

What's going on in there? It must be the TV. I have the TV on.

Oh.

Oh.

Is there something wrong?

No, no. It's nothing. I'm just feeling a little faint.

I've been fasting.

Do you mind if I have a glass of water, please?

Sure. Sure. Look, why don't you just wait right... Don't move. It's best if

don't move. I'll get the water right back.

Okay?

What are you doing?

Heartbeat.

I'm a doctor.

And those girls, they're your patients?

Students.

Taking their orals?

That's not what I think.

Relax, Professor Kern.

It's perfectly all right.

I've been looking for a man with your imagination.

You're a man after my own heart.

Students? It's okay.

They're on the honor system.

I think everything was just great. We'd have been really proud of you.

Don't make it sound like you discovered America or something, you know? Well,

maybe that's no big deal for you.

I never did anything like that in my whole life.

I loved it. Too much, man. Too much.

What did you do?

Not much. I just read a book.

Oh, you think that's really funny, huh?

No, I didn't mean to laugh.

You said you don't seem the type.

Walter, there's a lot you don't know about, okay?

Well, teach me. I want to learn.

Like what?

I mean, you got everything going for you.

You got it together up here.

Girls. I want to learn how to pick up girls.

Walter, you know what?

That technique, okay?

See that one over there?

All you got to do is walk up to him and start talking, okay?

Watch me.

I'll tell you what, if you have dinner with me tonight, you can find out.

Come on.

It'll make you feel better.

Okay.

If I bring my roommate along, will you bring Walter?

Him?

Yeah, I've seen him before.

He lives in the same apartment as I do.

He looks nice.

Yeah, okay.

So what

happened?

We got a date.

What are you doing tonight?

Nothing.

Dynamite, this chick's got a roommate she wants to bring along.

Funny thing is, they both live in our building.

Matter of fact, I ran into a roommate this morning.

She's a little plain, but hell, I know you'll like her.

You do know how to cook, don't you?

Yeah. All right, I invited him to your place for dinner tonight.

What the hell, the prices in these restaurants these days are way out of

you know what I mean?

Don't bother him with that.

June. June.

June.

Oh, I'm coming.

God, fear.

So fear.

I can feel it all the way in my mouth.

Yes.

Talk dirty to me.

I love it when you talk dirty.

I was thinking about how you were going to do it.

wrong skills.

Uh -huh.

Uh -huh.

I think you can make me come again.

Honey's always been like my big sister.

See, I was born in the valley, not too far from the Galleria.

No kidding.

I'm from Cleveland.

I knew we had a lot in common.

Yeah.

I don't know how to say this.

Do you, uh... Do you see anybody... Do you see anybody in Las Vegas?

Well, I don't have any ties there.

If that's what you mean.

It's sunny there, but nobody really gets tan because everyone stays inside all

the time.

Here, you have the ocean and the breeze.

All those boats.

See, that's why I'm studying to get my manicures licensed.

So if I ever decide to move, I could have a trade.

I bet you're good, too.

You know, you could open up a shop right here.

I could help you.

I have such strong hands.

You're still hard.

Do you want me to make you come again?

I didn't come the first time.

Why?

It's not important.

It is to me.

Tell me.

When I was in the 8th grade, I was court playing with myself by my 8th grade

teacher.

Some girls can't sleep in class.

She made me stay after school and she

said that as a punishment I had to do it in

front of her.

Did you?

Yeah.

She took me into a classroom after school.

She locked the door.

And she told me to put my pants down.

What a dirty old lady.

I was very scared.

I didn't have a heart on me.

She told me, well, I better get a heart on or I was going to be punished even

more.

So I started playing with it.

She told me exactly how she wanted me to play with it.

She wanted me to squeeze it harder, and she told me to, you know, jerk it faster

or slower, and she just kept staring at my cock.

Telling me what she wanted me to do with it.

And she kept saying how dirty I was, how disgusting of a boy I was.

Did you cum?

Yeah.

I even got some on a dress.

And I never came again like that.

Just had...

Something to do with the way she was talking to me.

Telling me how disgusting it was.

Do you want me to make you come like that again?

I don't think I can.

Sure you can.

But only when I let you.

Come in here, young man.

And close the door behind you.

Aha!

Disgusting little boy.

Yeah?

We're going now, Professor Kern.

Did we do all right?

Great. You both get A's.

What about me?

What do you think?

I think you made that whole thing about your teacher up.

You did.

Didn't you? Tell me the truth.

You know what I think?

What? I think we should move in together.

Well, we don't want to get carried away.

We'll still go to swing clubs.

Yeah. As a matter of fact, I've got a great idea.

What? I was really thinking of opening one right here in Marina Del Rey.

I mean, we could do it together.

If that's a proposal, the answer is definitely yes.

You didn't take your clothes off, did you?

No.

Promise?

Sure. It was just an interview.

For snow tires.

So?

Well, what happened?

Nothing.

He said he'd keep my application and call me.

Sounds like the brush -off to me.

Yeah. That's when it was all right.

Could I do your hair and makeup?

Why?

Because I think I could make you look different.

You don't always have to wear your hair up, you know.

And with a little highlighter, I can make your eyes look great.

I think it's a lost cause.

You'll see. You won't recognize yourself. Trust me.

What's my date like?

He's the one I think is really cute.

His name's Walter.

You wouldn't consider switching, would you?

Really?

No.

Stuart won't think I'm pretty enough.

Stuart?

That's cute.

Look, when I get through with you, old macho Stuart won't know what hit him.

I'm Lonnie.

I'm Jane.

I'm Walter.

Hi. I'm Skip.

We met this afternoon.

Remember?

You look completely different.

Is that good or bad?

Oh, that's real good.

Well, I'm starved.

Something smells great. Who did the cooking?

Me and Skip.

you can't open the wine.

Thank you.

Listen, uh, what would you say if, um, we switched?

You know, you'd take Lonnie?

Really?

What do you think they're talking about?

You and me.

Soup is on.

I hope you're all very hungry.

Basically, all computers do. It's turned on and off real fast.

You really take me seriously, don't you?

What? You really take me seriously.

Of course I do.

I don't exactly see myself as Missile Mission Viejo.

What I look like and who I am are completely two different people.

No one sees me as me. I feel like I'm in a comic strip.

Except for you.

You let me relax and be myself.

Come on, wait. You have to give me a chance to use my best line. I've been

practicing.

Don't. I like you just the way you are.

Up and up and up, or down and up and up, let them be stuck in illusion.

Oh, self -effacement.

Heart of the country.

Streets of a city night.

Love can be beautiful, beautiful. Sometimes it's not so pretty, but

I'm unadulterated.

That's why I waited for your love. Love I can be sure of.

But true love would be hard to find.

Just one time, or again and again, in black sunshine, or in a

foreign place, it can confuse and amaze, like the latest dance craze. But

if you find it everywhere, then suddenly it fades away, but you'll never know.

I'm so sophisticated.

That's why I waited for your love. Love has to be true love. A

true love would be hard to find.

Love brings out a feeling to bring happiness.

Or you can be blind with tears like a shadow in waking dreams.

Not always what it seems.

When the mist begins to clear, then you finally disappear.

But now you're alive, unadulterated.

That's why I waited for your love.

Love I can be true love.

True love would be hard to find.

But pure love on a dollar rate.

Kind of escalated.

Pure love, love I can be sure of.

A true love would be hard to find.

Hard to find.

What are you thinking?

You're beautiful.

Is that a lie?

No.

I've always thought of myself as plain looking.

No one's ever said I was beautiful.

You are beautiful.

Really?

You bet.

Bye. Bye. Bye.

Oh, my God.

You make me very happy.

Thank you.

Thank you.

The sun is set and the moon is up.

It's almost midnight and the end of another typical day here in Marina Del
