Nix bled up in love as it's raining, out of the window with a heart full of

pain. Nix bled up in my imagination,

I can see the future when the wind will rain.

The orchids are so warm and gentle. You may be my lover, you may be my friend.

But here is a dove who loves the sky. I hear the birds cry when the day begins.

And all of it is seeding with these raindrops.

My spirit's flying above all rooftops. I know the sun is hiding behind the rain.

I walk the streets of this dirty city and see things I've never seen before.

Yet they're familiar.

I know this woman, yet I've never met her.

So beautiful.

Humanity in its infinite variety.

I should have taken a cab.

But it cost me ten bucks.

Our great director has finally arrived.

How long have you been in New York?

Seven years.

Do you still have a tour book?

I'm a habitual tourer. I have no home.

She's the worst director I've ever had.

Why can't I live like other people?

Why can't I feel like other people?

Oh God.

Why can't I love like other people?

Hello? Yes, this is Zoe Luna.

You used to be an investigative journalist for the National Interloper,

you?

Yes, a long time ago.

A scant three years, my pretty.

Your reputation precedes you.

You're famous for going to any length to get a story.

And now you're a theatrical director, aren't you?

I try to be. Who is this? This is Bill Buddy, present editor of the Interloper.

Our magazine, while still being number one, is looking to branch out. Video

projects, television shows and such.

We thought you'd be the perfect woman for a current assignment.

And what assignment would that be?

Do you know Dr. Simon Hoff, the world -famous self -help guru?

Yes. I hate him.

Yes, he is diabolic, isn't he?

He's a fraud.

People go to that retreat of his on Fire Island and... You mean Dada House?

Yes, and... Say it, Zoe.

Say the word.

Are you afraid of the power the word holds?

Data House.

Very good.

Anyway, people go there and when they leave, there's no trace of their

personality. It's like they've had brain transplants or something.

Exactly. What is that nefarious fraud Dr. Hoff up to? We want you to go to

House, investigate Dr. Hoff and his disciples, and videotape your evidence.

We want your expose to be the premiere episode of a television show we're

putting together.

I'd like to. I don't know if I can.

Don't think, Zoe.

Thinking always leads to rationalization and excuses.

Do what you feel.

Well, I don't know. I have to check my schedule.

Zoe, you ain't seen nothing yet.

I procured you an invitation to Dada House.

You leave in the morning.

Goodbye. And Zoe, be careful.

Getting into Donna House isn't the hard part.

Getting out is.

Tomorrow, but... That editor for the interloper is just jealous because he's

me.

As they've come to think of it, everyone.

This could get very interesting.

So if you're weak of heart or mind...

I suggest you stop watching now.

I'm sure there's a Charlie Sheen flick on somewhere.

What? I... Hello,

Joey. My beautiful dark angel.

I try to clean the impurities of this ugly world

away night after night.

By just waking up in the morning, you find yourself a lost lamb waist -deep in

the big muddy, where the alligators roam looking for dinner.

We'll pick the demon star from the garden of the night

As the fog rolls in, moist and

white

across the moon's dry sea, an ocean of

vapor and tranquility.

So my journey begins, or is this the end?

The world is fascinated with Dr. Simon Hoff and his private universe.

The gossip columns have tagged Hoff's abode, the house that's been built.

I've lived long enough to know one thing.

Don't believe the hype.

I haven't worked with Nikki since the Gabrielle Vanderbilt expose for the

Press. But she's good.

Real good.

A real professional who will keep her mind on business and an eye on me.

That's not scary from the outside, is it?

I don't know, Zoe.

I've heard that Dada House isn't just where you can explore the outer limits

love and luxury.

It's where you must or else face the wrath of Dr. Simon Hoff.

Are you scared?

Me? Scared?

I've filmed cannibals in the darkest jungles of Asia and lived with inbreds

the swamps of Louisiana.

This is like a vacation to me.

I'll watch out for you.

Please, Zoe, you act like my grandma.

We're here to prove that Dr. Simon Hoff is a fraud.

I'm Zoe Luna, and this is my friend Nikki, and we've been invited to Data

Trip him out.

Nothing out of the ordinary here, right?

I've never seen anything like it before.

Nicky?

The answers to my prayers.

Nicky?

Zoe Luna!

I've been expecting you.

I've seen you before.

Oh, that wasn't me.

That was a dream.

So is this.

Who are you?

I'm Billy.

You can call me Billy.

I got a killer physique.

Don't you think?

Want to take a ride?

I think I'll pass.

My feelings are dead.

Dead? Honey, they may be taking a nap, but then you never play it.

Hide the pony with my baloney. It's yours truly.

What'd he say?

Beat it.

Beat it!

Want to take a ride on Billy Boy Todd?

Of course.

I'd rather go bareback with you.

And barefront and bare side. You repulsed me.

Hey, a minute ago you said your feelings were dead. Now I repulse you?

You are a crude boy, Billy.

Where's Dr. Hoff?

Who knows? He's like the wind.

Here one minute, gone the next.

That guy is running on a different motor oil than the rest of us.

If you know what I mean.

That couple was doomed.

He couldn't get it up. She was obsessed with needlepoint.

They're like 15 hours a day.

One weekend here, Al looked at them. The way she... And then he...

Dr. Huff is a fucking genius.

Come on, Chloe.

Sit right here. I'll tell you all about it.

So why are you here?

My girlfriend, Nikki, she no longer can have human contact.

She looks at life through that video camera.

Dr. Hoff said he could help.

I'm just here to watch over her.

Hey, are you and her... Oh, no.

Just girlfriends. We went to Catholic high school together.

She loves you and desires you? It's obvious.

Don't. Don't be ridiculous.

Well, if she doesn't, she should.

Be off with you.

Dr. Hoff.

Simon. She's not to be touched by you.

But I... Don't make me stick my unix on you.

Oh, shit.

Greetings, Zoe.

I'm Dr. Simon Hoff.

Come with me, please.

I created Dada House as a place where the cynical rules of modern society do

apply.

The only law of Dada House is Simon's Law.

you will find the accommodation satisfactory.

I just have so much I want to ask you. Ah.

In due time, my dear.

In due time.

Thank you.

Oh.

What am I doing?

I don't understand any of this.

Data House has a grip on me unlike anything I've ever experienced.

The only law?

Simon's law.

Zoe's law.

So, my deserved angel, why did you leave the man?

They wouldn't give me a raise.

Don't lie to me.

All right.

I exposed my lover to get a story.

Yes.

You grew quite attached to that kid you were setting up.

What was his name?

Gabrielle.

You were in love.

Not at first.

They gave me $10 ,000 to become his lover.

They thought he was the one behind the theft of his father's collection of Man

Ray paintings that showed up on the black market.

And as a matter of fact, he was.

So you shared a bed with this man just to get a story?

It was some story.

But?

But. But the truth is, you fell in love with him, didn't you?

Yes.

Yes, I did.

And so, what did the man who loved you, who trusted you,

do when he saw your front page story exposing your affair

and his crime?

Beautiful.

Everyone says I'm beautiful.

But I can't bear to look at myself.

All I see is pain.

Pain and deception.

He jumped off the Brooklyn Bridge, didn't he?

Don't feed on your fears, Zoe.

You'll never run out.

But you'll always be hungry.

Love isn't real anyway.

What do you think you know about love, Dr.

Hoff?

Nikki.

Go back

to the pillow.

I have a surprise.

I'm Zoe.

I'm Amy, Simon's favorite.

Oh, so you've been here before.

This is my home.

Where are you from?

Well, originally France, then Singapore, then the Congo, and

finally Manhattan.

Oh, you like to travel, huh?

No, it's more like I run from reality.

Whatever.

I've been to 32 club meds.

But now, I found a home here at Dada House.

Amy, it's good that you're back.

Oh, Simon, I've been teaching the ideals of Dada House that you taught me to an

unsuspecting publican. Oh, you're not going to believe how great it's been.

Yeah, yeah, that's great. Amy, um, Zoe, did you have a restful sleep?

I have never slept so well.

Oh, do I?

A little grumpy, are we?

Who's that new girl?

You will do whatever she says.

I listen to no one.

Except for you.

Trust me, my sweet.

He touched me and it gets all warm and bubbly down there.

My latest acquisition.

I won it in a card game in Indonesia last summer.

It's a self -portrait of Boy Whoopi. Oh, the famous Dada artist?

The same.

Worth $1 .6 million.

What do you think?

He looks unhappy.

I bet I could make him smile.

I don't know.

Boy Whoopi was known for his sour disposition.

You have your work cut out for you.

You're adorable.

And tired.

Jetlag. So, take a nap.

I believe.

I love you.

Oh.

um

Oh.

He just made love to me.

Me, me. He's been dead for over 60 years.

At Donna House, anything can happen, but raising the dead, that's new even to

me. He was here. He was here, and we made mad passionate love.

With you, is there any other kind?

If society was as free of the shackle as you, my dear, there'd be no need for

Donna House.

Good night.

Thank you.

Mom video.

I'm going to come, baby. Oh, God, I'm going to come.

What do you want?

Tell me the secrets of Data House.

I knew it. You want to destroy Data House. You want to destroy Simon.

Dr. Hoff is a fraud. Admit it.

Never.

You don't want to fight with me, girl. These claws have been sharpened from

years of experience.

Your kind makes me sick.

It's weak minds like yours that fall for Dr. Simon Hoff. Yeah?

Well, you're the only bag around here.

And the only...

Trixie and Jen are on the docks with Lonely Sabre. Oh, yes!

Do you still think Simon's a fraud?

I don't know.

I think that maybe he isn't. That's why I'm resisting you so much.

A little advice.

Less shoving, more hugging.

He's a poisey cat.

He doesn't mean any harm.

Come here.

Now is that so bad, sweetie?

No. I don't know. It felt good.

What's happening to me?

Well,

why wouldn't you kiss me, sweetie? I could have loved you.

Well, maybe you're just a little too butch, honey.

Come with me, young lady. But, but... Silence.

So much has happened to me since I got here.

How can I destroy Simon?

I feel a strange connection to him.

Pick it up by the pool.

Hello? Bill Buddy here.

How's the expose going?

Uh, well, well, it's complicated.

That house is very complicated.

But you're coming through for us, though, right?

I mean, after all, we are putting up the money. You got a check for $10 ,000

waiting for you when you hand over that footage.

$10 ,000?

That's your going right for a story, isn't it?

After all, you got ten grand for that story that led to the death of your

You don't even like Simon Hoff.

Or do you?

I'm getting a headache.

When do you want to meet?

Well, meet me tomorrow morning at the interloper office.

I'll give you that check.

After all, with that money, honey, you can produce a lot of bad theater.

You know something?

Theater is all I ever wanted to do.

Nikki. Dr. Simon Hoff caught me yesterday while I was videotaping you

And? What happened?

Are you all right?

Sure. He made me a ham sandwich.

That's it?

Well, he also tore my soul into a thousand pieces.

But I deserved it. He's a nice guy.

A nice guy?

I think we should leave Simon Hoff alone. He was put on this earth to help

fortunate like myself erase all the program nonsense.

And find my true inner core.

You're sounding like the duck jacket of the cover of his book.

Where's the video?

I'm not giving it to you.

Give me that video.

We came here to do a job. Now give me the video.

No.

Never.

Never. Never.

Nikki, do you find me attractive?

Well, yes.

But I didn't think you... You

know I love you. You're lying.

Could I lie to you?

Oh, God, I've prayed for this moment.

I'll give you what you want.

What do you want?

I want it all.

I just want... one thing from you.

What?

The video.

Thanks, sweetie.

Bye.

What do you say?

Uh, yes. Yes, what?

Uh, yes, mistress.

Ah!

I wouldn't destroy you. Your bag here is you, girl. I'm a tourist everywhere.

I have no home.

You found your home. You want to destroy Dr. Hopp.

He's a nice guy.

Thank you.

Shake me up, turn me around.

Take me in.

Touch me.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Touch me.

Thank you.

Thank you.

It's like thunder.

We came here to do a job. Now give me the video.

Bitch. Video.

Bitch.

I'm looking for Bill Buddy.

Have a seat, please.

No, we can't do it. Those figures don't add up.

All right. You call me tomorrow.

Okay.

Well, you got the video?

I do.

What do you plan on doing with it?

Destroy Simon Hawk.

You've taken a liking to Donna House, haven't you?

Looks like he's tricked another one.

Well, here's your check, girl.

I guess you've earned it.

No, no.

No. I made a mistake.

Hello, Zoe.

Simon.

Why did you bring me here?

I told you.

To destroy you.

Stop saying that!

To destroy you and save you.

Simon, I've never been good at riddles.

Zoe Luna.

unproductive member of traditional society, had to be destroyed in order

to save you.

You weren't happy out there in the real world.

No. Felt like an outsider in your own life, didn't you?

Yes, definitely.

In your such a complicated life, Louie, I had to save you twice.

Twice? I was on the bridge that day.

What are you talking about?

Betraying your lover for a byline, Zoe?

You were the ultimate symbol of how far the wretched planet Earth could fall.

I know.

What happened after Gabrielle jumped?

I don't remember.

Let me in, Zoe.

You had reached the bottom.

Your lover was floating in the East River, and you decided to join him.

As I held you to me, I could feel the electric current.

You were one and the same with me.

I finally had found my partner to run Dada House with me.

What? Your partner at Dada House?

I've been searching for you all my life.

I saved you physically on the bridge.

I'm saving you spiritually right now.

I've been introducing you to the seven laws of sex all along.

Law number one.

No inhibitions.

My twin partner.

Law number two, the law of self -gratification.

Not bad, Zoe, not bad.

Law number three, the law of fantasy.

Law number four, the law of artistic freedom.

Law number five, defy logic.

Law number six, anything a man can do, a woman can do

much better.

Law number seven,

Anything goes.

I never dreamed we'd talk so softly and shyly hold each other's

hand.

I never dreamed the moon would rise above the tree while the wave

hits the golden...

I never dreamed in color till I met you.

I never flew with ease across the sky.

But lately, baby, you've been starring in my dreams when we're together.

It's so easy to play.

And now I think you're far above me.

Tell all your

Goodbye.

And baby.

Next time.
