Original subtitles

Sweat, real sweat.

You know what I'm talking about?

Realism. No, no,

no, no.

I don't want any of this phony crap here.

Light up.

You're supposed to be the architect here.

Tell me, how am I supposed to get these 100-hour-old bitches to sweat?

Hey, Ted, baby.

Hey, what's happening?

I didn't see you come in.

Okay, girls, now we want you to look your best.

Mr. Rossini is a bit of a perfectionist, but it's only because he wants you to

look very well. And this is a disco layout.

We want to see everything in the costume. We want to see the front, we

want to see the back, we want to see the sides.

So when I say move, please, girls, for me, move.

Hey, what's the matter? You look like shit, huh? I just dropped by to cheer

myself up.

I'll stick around until you're through, okay?

Sure, sure. It's good to see you. I'll be right with you. Hey, Laila. Laila,

avanti, avanti. I needed to see you.

June, get the cameras ready.

We work all night.

Avanti.

Yes. Now, keep it going, girls. You are coming to me.

I want to see it. Now, right here. I want to look at this. Tell me what you

think of this, huh?

Very good. Yes, you tell me.

Oh, tell me what you think of this. Tell me. Oh, tell me. Tell me what you think

of this. What's on your reputed mind? Oh, I was thinking we'd maybe get the...

The creative juices are flowing. What do you think, baby?

My, my.

Come on, girls.

Come on.

I want you to dance until you're wet.

Come on, move it.

Faster.

Now.

Yeah. All right.

Very good. Keep it up. Keep it going.

Yes. All right, bitch.

Come on. Come on.

Come on. Come on.

Come on. Come on. Come on.

Keep a dancing up there. Keep a dancing.

Don't laugh. Don't laugh.

Keep a talking.

Keep a dancing.

Keep it up.

Here, dear Teddy, is to old friends and new adventures.

So, your job gives you nothing.

And neither is that nice middle-class girl you shacked up with.

Joan's been faithful and supportive and... And boring and shrewish, etc.,

etc. Yeah, that too.

Reservations are all set. I rented a van for morning and I called to confirm all

the girls that have been interviewed.

Oh, hello, Mr. Perlis.

Gee, you're not looking too well. Are you feeling all right? Our boy here is

suffering from terminal boredom.

Oh, that's too bad.

I wish you could go along with us on this trip.

It'd be nice to have someone intellectual along for a change.

Why don't you go wrap a set?

It's nice to have seen you, Mr. Perlis. Bye.

Holy shit.

Holy shit, that's it.

That is it.

You, you come with us.

What the hell are you talking about?

Look, man, look, we've been friends for years, huh?

Right?

I got lots of bucks. I'll put you on. It's something. I don't know. It's

anything. I'll put you on. Hold it. What are you talking about?

Let me explain.

Tomorrow, we are leaving on a tour of the state to photograph girls.

Not professional models, but girls that Lila interviewed. You know, model

for a day. It's an ad gimmick. Look, it doesn't matter.

You come with us, huh?

It'd be great, Eddie. Just like the old day. Cut it, Tony.

I mean, in the old days, you weren't Antonio Rossini, renowned fashion

photographer. You were just Tony Ross, stud, fuck-off, and all-around hell

-raiser.

For that matter, so was I.

Now I got mortgage payments, a job, a girlfriend,

alimony. The entire catastrophe.

Thanks anyway.

Lots of fringe benefits, man.

Come on, Tony, I just can't take off.

Why not?

Hey, Teddy boy, come here.

This,

my dear friend, is to adventure and your new job.

Hey, thank you. Excuse me.

One thing, burger brain, this is a very big account.

The first time your deadweight friend there fucks up, it's either him or me.

The whole thing is just damn unprofessional.

Hey, look, maybe this isn't such a good idea. No, no, no, don't worry.

She'll get over it.

She always does.

Listen, listen.

On this trip, my friend, you are going to see more untamed pussy than you ever

thought possible.

Don't worry about Lila, huh?

Take care of her.

Mr. Perlis, I'm glad you're coming with us on this trip.

Well, whatever happens, it's got to be better than what I'm leaving behind.

Let's see.

Our first stop is just a few hours from here.

At a health food store?

Oh, come on, peach pussy. You can't be that pissed off that Ted joined us.

For the last three years, I have busted my ass for you and this business.

And you didn't even have the decency to consult me about bringing him along.

I'm getting real tired of being treated like baggage, Tony.

Well, my five-fingered friend, it looks like we're going to be spending a lot of

time together.

Alone. We've been cut off.

You got it.

God, I wish you didn't pay so well.

I usually have to listen to the two of them going at it all the time.

I'm really glad you're along so I have someone to talk with.

There you are, Karma.

You look absolutely wonderful today.

This is Antonio Rossini.

Buongiorno.

Antonio, this is our Earth Mother image, Karma Lane.

You may be a bitch to work with, love, but you sure can pick them.

Come astide, Miss Lane. This is a great, great honor.

Thank you. I'm just glad that my energy and vibes were right for your photos,

Mr. Rossini.

Are you a Scorpio?

Why, yes. Yes, I am.

Scorpios are so intense.

That's a good sign.

Karma, I'd like to introduce you to my assistant, Teddy.

Hi, how are you doing?

Oh, you're very sensitive.

You must be an Aquarius.

Oh, yes, yes, Teddy is an Aquarius. Very sensitive boy.

Teddy is our costume consultant.

Yes, Ted will help pick out the costume for you and assist you in dressing.

How perfect.

I just know I can trust you, Tim.

Lila, you select the settings and tell June which lights to pick.

Now, Karma, tell me, is there a place here you can change quickly?

Right back here in my storeroom. Ah, va bene, va bene.

Tony, look, I can't do this. Oh, sure you can. Come on, look, you want an

adventure. I don't know the first thing about wardrobe. This is an adventure. It

doesn't matter.

I have your wardrobe.

Can't you wait until after working hours to get your friend laid?

Hey, look, what do you got against Ted having a good time? The poor bastard's

been tied down for years. It's amazing how you make your own power trip sound

like concern.

Truth is, you just like manipulating people.

God, Tony, you've changed.

You know, I can hardly remember why I ever thought I loved you.

Mamma mia.

I'm so flattered that I was chosen to be in these ads. I want to show what a

healthy diet can do for the body.

Do you think you could help me with this?

Yeah, sure.

Here we go.

Yeah, I'll get that. I'll get that.

Help me with these buttons here.

You think you should try on the breast... vest?

I'll try it on later.

Ted, if you find me attractive, I mean, I think that's wonderful.

Sex is a healthy part of nature.

And did you know that sex can be the most enjoyable meditation that there is?

And I think if we're going to be really in tune with each other, a sexual

meditation is very important.

Don't you?

Yeah.

Can you believe it?

Tony's back there with that karma woman?

I think it's disgusting.

All he ever thinks about is sex, sex... Sex?

Someone call?

But who's with... Ted?

Hey, June, June, come on. What is with you, huh?

You wouldn't understand, dildo head.

Dildo head?

Oh, oh.

Oh, Mike, what is it?

Just coconut milk.

Doesn't it feel wonderful?

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, it does.

Coconut milk. Ooh.

Ooh.

Ooh.

Thank you.

How about a grape?

Let's get this done.

Well,

I think she's ready now.

I did my best.

I'm all set.

Ah, then let's hit it, kids. Va bene. Now, I want this a natural.

Just a natural.

Very good.

Now, you just action, eh?

Action.

Karma, you are magnificent.

Can't you stay for a little while?

You look like a man who could use some meditation.

Oh, no, I'll catch you on the way back, eh?

I always wanted to get into health foods.

Karma was great, huh?

You know, if the rest of these non-professionals turn out as well,

it'll be a snap.

Well, what do you expect?

I mean, after all, it was my job to select the women.

Yes. And you are the best, aren't you? Oh, at some things.

So what am I, chopped liver?

Where's my applause for lugging and lifting and lighting and making it

possible for Mr. Wonderful here to push his little button and rake in all the

money? Oh, how steven.

How simply stupid of me to forget your vital contribution to this.

You know, could you put down the mask for just once and say something nice to

me? I do deserve it, you know.

I'm sorry.

Hey, June, you know how good you are at your job. Don't expect him to get

serious. I think he's forgotten how.

Ah,

well, lover boy, eh?

Tomorrow ought to be interesting, don't you think?

Oh, come on. For crap's sake, man.

You got to find the fuck out of it. Why do you care if it's available to

everybody? Well, maybe I do care. So just lay off, huh?

Oh.

Well, you know, maybe just some of us aren't cut out for meditation.

Real good, Tony.

Keep it up and you'll turn Ted here into the same kind of person it's taken you

years to become.

Well, see, I haven't hoped for you yet, huh?

That's what I'm afraid of.

That is not the way we do it.

Now, start the game.

Oh, Lila.

Hello. Dorina Zucca, this is Antonio Rossini.

Ah, buongiorno.

I can see why Lila chose you. You are indeed a tribute to the art of dance and

the essence of athletic femininity.

Well, thank you, Mr. Rossini.

I'm certain that what you seek, however, is best discovered without this

bullshit.

Smart lady, huh?

A very dedicated artist.

Sue, you can forget about getting laid here.

Sorry.

Pass it on. I'm ready. No problem, Ms. Zukov. I have your costume ready for

you. Girls, I told you not to observe this shooting.

Oh, pardon me, Doreen, but is it possible?

Are these young women your students?

Yes, why you ask?

Well, I thought maybe they could be in the shoot, sort of as a background.

Oh? Oh, that is, of course, if you have no objections. I just thought it might

set the mood more clearly.

Oh, please, Ms. Zukov.

We just want to see what a fashion shoot is like.

Please, we won't get in the way, honestly.

Well, it would be good for you, yes.

Be all right.

Oh, wow, this is so much better than we hoped for.

Now, just be subtle, and let's hope Mr. Koff doesn't catch us.

You think it'll work?

Girls, come home at this time.

He's very good.

Oh, God, I think he's wonderful.

My, my, you are smitten, aren't you?

So what?

You wouldn't understand anyway.

I can see it coming now.

Like a butterfly.

We're going to do this classic.

You stay there for a second.

Ah, yes.

Ah, very good. Very good. I take it from here first.

Ready, huh?

Ready.

Ah, classic.

Classic. Good job. Thank you.

Ah, Torino.

Torino, you are superb.

Magnificent. Magnificent. Well, thank you, Mr. Rossini. And my students. They

did well, I hope. Oh.

Very well, very well. But of course, not as a professional as you. I need to keep

them to make a few more shots.

But you need not to stay. You go home.

I will lock up.

Well, that is very nice of you.

Because I do have to lecture tonight at the recital hall.

You are a gentleman, so I see.

Grazie. Thank you.

Goodbye. Ciao, and buona notte.

Oh, no.

He's not going to... Oh, yes.

What else?

Hell, did you see the way they were flashing him during the shoot?

They deserve it.

Hey, I don't know how you put up with it. I mean, the two of you used to be

lovers. I don't want to talk about it.

Listen, I'm going. You want to come along?

I sure as hell don't want to stay here.

Hey, where the hell are you two going, huh?

We didn't want to intrude on your creativity.

Don't worry.

We'll be back to break down the equipment.

I don't want you to strain yourself.

Good. I didn't like them anyway.

And besides, they wouldn't appreciate our little surprise.

Surprise? Yeah.

Didn't you say you wanted some more shots of just us?

Well, what did you girls have in mind?

Just a little dance for Tina Brown.

What did you say to them?

Nothing, nothing, man.

I think they just like us.

And who can blame them?

Oh!

Oh!

Thank you.

Sit, sweetie.

Yes, that's right.

Yes,

yes, yes.

I love

you.

I didn't know you were that interested in Ted or anyone for that matter.

Look, just because I don't go around undressing for every guy that walks by

doesn't mean that I... June, that's not what I meant.

Look, I know we haven't been the best of friends, but give me a chance, all

right?

Sorry.

You know, the truth is I've always been a little...

jealous of you.

Besides, what chance do I have with Ted, with Tony leading him around by his,

did you know, his thing?

Two, let me tell you a few things.

Number one, just because Ted wants to get his ya-ya's out after all these

years of boredom doesn't make him a terrible human being. I mean, you might

notice he isn't doing all that well anyway.

And two, if you need any help, I'm a woman.

Underneath those overalls and jeans, you are too.

We might wear different costumes, but we're all in the same play.

Thanks. Sure.

This was very good.

Bravissimo.

Oh, will you cut the accent, Tony?

Look, man, I'm telling you, it was very good. What do you want me to say?

So tell me, tell me, is sex without romance really so terrible?

I think I could learn to tolerate it. You could?

You know, I don't understand what you ever saw in Tony.

I'm sorry, but I just don't. Oh, he was different once, before the fame and the

money got to him.

Well, hell, June, I think it's gotten to me, too.

If you two jailbait suckers are ready, maybe we can get going.

You know what?

Somehow I don't think they approve.

Hey, wait up!

Excuse me.

I'm coming with you.

Listen, I told you, you must have called me when I get back to the city. No, not

now. Go away, go away. Look, you said we had what it took to become professional

models, didn't you? I want out of this hick town now. Take me with you.

You creeps. Listen, honey, face it.

You've been had.

Let it be a lesson to you, huh?

These two guys just aren't worth the effort.

Come on, let's go.

Everybody, come on, June, let's go. Come on, put this stuff in there. What is

this? What a waste.

We went to all the trouble to fuck a couple of old men, pretending it was fun

for nothing.

Shit! Come on, let's go, everybody.

In the truck, huh? In the truck. In the truck, Lila, huh?

In.

Is Tony with you?

No, he decided to turn in early.

You okay?

Oh, a little smashed, slightly depressed, completely disillusioned,

almost suicidal.

Nothing serious.

Care to join me?

Yeah, for a drink, I think.

Uh, bartender, let me have, um... Oh, let me have a brandy.

You know, after the shoot's wrapped, I'm done.

I don't think I can take it any longer.

You know, I keep thinking maybe Tony will change a bit.

Well, I'm part

of it, aren't I?

Part of the reason that everybody's... No, not anymore.

You know, I'm beginning to enjoy having you around.

Thanks, Lila. Shh, don't let anybody hear about it. Might ruin my image.

You know... Maybe June doesn't have such a bad taste after all. Never mind.

Look, I know she likes me, but I don't know. Well, I like her too.

I guess she thinks that sex is something that only unintellectual people engage

in. Something like that.

It's too bad.

No, other than that, she's a damn fine lady.

So are you.

I think I'll go to bed.

This life in the fast lane is a little too much for me.

Are you all right? Me? Well, I'm still in first gear.

You have to work tomorrow, though. That'll be... A little trick

I learned.

One for the road.

You got it.

Here's your coat.

Thanks.

It's my diary.

I was just writing that... Never mind.

You're drunk. You don't want to hear it now.

Oh, I'm not as drunk as I'd like to be.

I never am, June.

Come on.

What were you writing, huh?

Men can't please me.

I won't let them.

Even Ted has proven weak.

And Lila is not the... Go on.

Is not the selfish bitch I thought she was.

That's good.

My only fear... Listen, Juke.

There's something you don't want to tell me. I understand completely. No, I want

to say it.

Lila, I trust you.

I want to say it.

My only fear is that I will never be able to get out of my mind and into my

body. I'm afraid to be passionate.

It's okay.

It'll come in time.

Honestly.

Please.

I trust you.

June, are you sure?

I don't want to do anything that...

I love the body too.

I just want you to feel good.

Tell me if I do anything you don't mind.

Okay. Okay.

That was beautiful.

Do the men that you've been with make you feel that good?

You sure know the right things to say, don't you?

Well, do they?

They used to.

Sometimes if you're even lucky, it's even better.

I was having the most amazing fantasy.

I know.

Really?

Uh-huh.

You were thinking about a man.

Especially when you were coming.

I was.

But how did you know?

Oh, I've been there quite a few times before.

Who were you thinking of?

Oh, just a man.

It's not important.

Yeah, you're right.

Oh, you won't have any problems when the right man comes along.

I can tell you that, that's for sure.

You're a natural born lover.

Lover.

And after that, I left home and found the job with Tony.

Gee, just one bad turn after another.

You two are in one hell of a good mood this morning. Well, we got a good

night's sleep last night.

We are proud of our little Chrissy.

Being chosen to model for your ads and all, aren't we, Mother? We certainly

are. I only hope she'll do well.

She's so young, you know.

Only just graduated high school.

Straight A's.

Valedictorian. Oh, that's wonderful.

Yes. Yes, yes. I am sure that she will do fine. You see, our Lila here has a

wonderful eye for talent. And I'm sure that Chrissy... Oh.

Chrissie. Oh, hello, Chrissie.

Don't you look nice today.

You ready? Hello, Miss Ford.

Now, don't you worry about a thing. We'll have Chrissie back in about three

or four hours. Oh, that's fine. Just fine.

I'll find my glasses and we'll catch the Jeanette McDonald Nelsonetti Festival.

We're just in time for the matinee.

Don't worry, Mr. and Mrs. Hanson.

Chrissy here, she is in a good hands. Good.

You lay one finger on that girl and I'll have you buy your professional balls.

Got it? Yes, Mrs. Ford is right. She says that Chrissy has that certain

innocent appeal that I've been looking for.

Avanti. Avanti. Ciao.

Ciao.

God bless you.

You did splendidly, Chrissie.

Your appearance can be very proud.

Thank you, Mr. Massini. We have to get you right home and into bed.

Oh, absolutely, Lila. We can't have our Chrissie here getting sick on us, can

we? And since our hotel is right on the way and we must pack anyway, I drop you

all off and I take Chrissie home. Oh, how...

Thoughtful of you Tony. Oh, these are nothing but I have a better idea

Damn

it

woman now, why the hell did you do that? You're starting to piss me off We have

work to do Tony and you know it besides Ted. I trust got it. You know what I got

Fire you. That's what I got, Lila. You don't have a good mind to do anything.

Tony. What?

Are you really that upset about losing a chance to screw Chrissy?

No, no, I'm not.

I'm the boss here. I'm in control.

And I don't want anybody telling me what to do, especially her.

And that includes you.

I'm really sorry you caught cold. I hope your parents will understand.

It's not your fault, really.

I was getting cold anyway before today.

Well, look, here's your bag.

I'm sorry about this.

You're nice. Thank you. But really, I'll be all right.

Hey,

what are you doing?

Let me take you inside.

Where's your key?

I hope you feel better.

I'm really sorry.

It's all right.

Honest. Maybe some hot tea or something.

The kitchen's over there.

Tea?

Yeah, yeah, sure. I'll make you some hot tea before I go.

But I have to leave very soon.

Thank you.

Very, very soon.

Chrissy?

Chrissy?

Hello?

Chrissy?

What?

Oh, gosh.

I must have fallen asleep.

I guess I don't feel so good.

I, uh, I have your tea here.

Oh, would you bring it to me, please?

Bring it to you?

Certainly, sure.

Thanks.

I'm sure glad you're here to help me, Mr. Perlis.

Really. Yeah, well, I really have to go now.

That is, if you'll be okay, I mean.

Of course.

I'll be okay once I put some of that vapor rub on.

Would you get it for me, please?

Uh, yeah, yeah, sure.

I'll hold this up if you'll put some on me.

Yeah, just a little bit.

Come on, you silly bastard, let's play.

That's fine.

I shouldn't be doing this, you know that.

Bite my nipples.

Bite them.

Bite them.

What if your parents come home?

He's beautiful.

Let's take this off.

Get your pants on.

Oh yeah.

it's all bad from you so bad

where

did

you learn to do that i read a lot

Oh, yeah.

Let me play a game.

Just one game.

You don't have to do anything with this life still, okay?

Yeah, sure.

Whatever you want.

What's the game?

So until we actually see this woman's house, there's no way that we can...

It's a mansion.

Mansion. The lady lives in a mansion.

Mansion or whatever. Until we actually get there, I can't give you anything

more than a general idea of a lighting plan.

June.

June, why the hell do you work with me?

What?

Come on, you heard me.

Lots of reasons.

Come on, June.

Lila and I don't do anything anymore than trade insults. Ted wants to leave,

right? And you're the only one who's left. Why?

Thanks. Come on, you know what I mean. Why are you here?

At first, I thought you were a genius.

I still do, but you are an asshole genius.

Yes, that much we know, huh?

Well, then I thought if I could make any sense out of what was going on in that

studio, I could understand anything.

No way.

Now I don't know why I stay.

Sorry, I just wish I could help.

Yeah, me too. No, fuck it. It doesn't matter. It all stinks lately.

I'm really sorry, Tony.

Yeah.

Don't worry.

Thanks. Take care.

What are you doing, Boy Scout?

Huh? Oh, fine.

Hey, listen, Tant, I'm gonna have to go away for a while.

I don't know, I wanna go to Spain for a couple of months, or Greece.

Wanna come along?

No, I can't. I gotta find a new job.

A real job.

Yeah.

Chrissy wasn't so innocent.

You're shitting me.

Oh, come on, you got to tell me. This has got to be a classic. Come on. Look,

don't tell Lila, all right? I mean, I'd feel really shitty about that. I'm not

going to say anything. Look, this is the great Antonio Rossini speaking to you.

So you got to tell me what happened.

You want to know what happened? I want to know what happened right from the

beginning. You want to know what happened? What happened?

Tony Rossini wants to know what happened. Yes.

I'll tell you.

I was raped.

You were raped?

Raped.

She was raped. She was raped.

She raped me.

She raped me. You were raped? Yes. By this?

Did you hear that?

I wonder what those two are... I know what kind of laughter that is.

Thank God tomorrow's our last day.

Oh, Harmon, our guests are arriving a bit early. I do hope we're prepared.

Of course, madam.

Of course.

After so many adventures together, how could I even ask?

Four of them at once this time.

And all quite intelligent.

This. should be a true test of your theories.

Adi Alana.

Holy shit.

Hey, Lila, why didn't you tell me?

I hadn't seen it myself.

I met her in New York at the ad agency.

She's a stockholder.

She offered herself and her home for one of the layouts.

I had the impression they couldn't say no.

Who the hell is this woman?

Ariolana Van Laren Devane, heiress of the Devane Publishing Empire, degrees in

psychology, art and science.

Quite reclusive since the death of her husband nine years ago.

Stockholder in... Thank you, Miss Britannica.

Well, let's get it going.

Mrs. Devane will be joining you for cocktails after you've freshened up.

I do not think it's necessary to freshen up. After you've freshened up, sir.

I think we're going to have to freshen up, eh?

Andiamo, come on.

Women first, eh?

Well, well, my, how handsome.

I hope you found everything you needed.

Yes, yes. Thank you very much for the clothes.

Oh, yes.

You seem to have thought of everything.

Oh, one of my little quirks.

Perfection. I provided some clothes for the ladies, too.

Here, come.

Wow. Oh, mama mia.

Hey, that's nice.

Perfection.

Thank you. Thank you very much. Amen.

Would you seat our guest, please?

So,

I

simply decided to please myself.

And study those aspects of psychology and human behavior that interested me.

Oh, it's been lonely at times.

But never, never boring.

Look, Ariel, I don't mean to be a pushy. Oh, of course, of course.

Harmon.

Yes, ma'am.

Everything is in order.

Wonderful.

Now, if you all would indulge me for just a little while longer.

You see, I know a great deal more about you.

Each of you that I've let on.

And how should I put this?

Well, I'll just put it definitely and simply.

You see, for the past nine years, I've been engaged in an experiment.

Well, a study, actually, of human behavior.

Ariel, I don't see how this is an experiment.

Thank you, June.

Really, there's nothing mysterious about it. Simply stated, I need your help for

a short time, about a few hours.

And in exchange...

I think I will be able to help each of you.

That is, if you're willing.

I really don't understand Lila's getting so upset.

I think it's all really exciting.

I know.

And it's that sense of trust you have that's going to make this a very

important night for you.

But how do you know so much about us?

Oh, a combination of intuition, intelligence, research, and a great deal

of money to get whatever I want with.

Now just enjoy yourself.

Relax. Browse.

And I'll be back in a little while.

Listen, if any of you wants me to play games, I'd like to know why.

What the hell is going on here?

I am sorry if you're confused, sir.

But I'm sure madam will explain.

As well as she had better.

In here, sir?

In here.

Yes, but this is a darker room.

That is the master bedroom, sir.

Well, you're lucky, Harmon.

Because the only darker room I go into is a bedroom.

What the hell?

Shit.

All right, Harmon.

I get it.

It's a little joke, eh?

You're actually a Count of Dracula in disguise.

Right?

Right?

Right?

I like your outfit.

Is this a part of the experiment or just a pleasant distraction?

A little bit of both.

Oh, this is a knife.

This is very nice.

It's very difficult to open.

Oh, yes.

Oh, that's very good.

Suck it.

Suck it.

Oh, yes.

Oh.

Oh.

Very nice.

Oh.

Oh, yes.

What is this? What do I mean? What is this?

Oh, what's the matter? Oh, did I do something wrong?

Oh, no, no, no. It's just that I don't like being tied up. I mean, it's very

uncomfortable. Oh, it's just a game. It's just for fun. You see, I've never

tried it before.

Oh, well, yes, well, maybe, maybe just a little bit. Just a little bit.

Oh,

yes.

It's very good. Oh.

Oh,

this is very nice, yes.

It's very nice.

Oh, no, no, no, no, you don't, no, no, wait a second, wait, wait. No, no, no,

no, no, no, no, no, no.

Try it.

Yes, I try it.

Mm-hmm.

Oh, I try it.

It's not bad.

Mm-hmm.

Interesting.

Oh,

that's very good.

Miss Lott?

Yes?

Oh, uh...

Where is Arielle?

She will be with you soon. She asked that you change clothes.

These are yours.

But where is everybody?

They are all having a wonderful time and wish only the same for you.

Please, Miss Ladd, relax.

There is nothing here for you but pleasure and enjoyment.

Here, these are for you to wear.

Thank you.

It's all so strange, but you have made me feel better, Harmon.

Oh, that's very good, Ariel.

Oh, that's very good.

Oh, that's very good, Ariel. Oh, that's very good.

Oh, that's very good. Oh, that's very good. Oh, yes, yes, very good. Oh, I'm

good.

No. God damn it, woman. How many times are you going to do that, huh?

Look, all right, all right. Let's cut these goddamn scrubs off. Let's get her

back on the right track, huh?

The right track, Tony?

Oh. You mean where you're in control all the time, telling everybody else what to

do and when?

Look, okay, Ariel, just cut the fucking scarves off, huh?

Tony, please don't make me mad.

Because then I might decide to just leave you here.

For Harmon, who has rather bizarre tastes, I'm afraid.

It's just that this is not my thing. I got carried away. I didn't mean... Oh,

Tony. I've got a lot to teach you, Tony, but you've got to shut up and listen.

You talk all the time, so you never hear anything.

Okay, Ariel, please, I just want to... One more word and I'm leaving.

Understand?

Good. Because I really like you, Tony.

Now, for the first lesson.

We'll call it.

Conilingus 101.

You see, Tony, I want you to make me come.

Starting to like not being in control, Tony?

Tony.

I haven't come in a very long time. This is not going to be easy.

But the better you make it for me, the better I'll make it for you.

Ah.

Oh, yes, that's not bad.

That's the way. Lightly, lightly.

Yes, yes, now you can dig your tongue down further.

And then you can run in deeper.

Deeper. Now you can go in there where you want to go. See, now it's open and

wet and flowing.

Now put your nose up against that spot on top. That's the way.

That's the way. Yes, now you're hitting them both.

Oh, good, Tony.

Oh, good.

Good, Tony.

Oh, oh, oh.

Tony.

That was very good.

Now... Don't strangle me, please.

Oh, no.

Now, this is just more of the game. Lift your head up.

That's a good boy.

Now, can you see? Tell me the truth.

Oh, I can't see. I can't see. That's good.

Now, you just lie here, and I'll be right back.

Wait, wait, wait.

Shit.

Where the hell is everyone?

It's all damn crap. This whole thing.

I just want to get home.

You fucked her, didn't you?

Huh?

Who? You know damn well who.

Chrissy. You didn't think you'd slip that one by me.

I told Tony not to tell you.

It wasn't my fault, Lila. Tony didn't have to say anything, dear. I heard you

come in last night.

I've heard that kind of locker room laughter before.

And where did you get so damned holy, huh?

I mean, if the truth makes any difference to you, Chrissy was a little

Lolita who bullshitted me like a pro.

Oh, did she force you to fuck her at gunpoint? It doesn't make any

difference. She was just like all the others.

Selfish, pushy, conniving.

I mean, I felt nothing but used ever since this whole trip started. Used?

Honey, you don't know what used is.

Pardon me, but I'm, uh, well, are you two through pitying yourselves or should

I come back later?

Listen, your impression of Auntie Mame is very entertaining.

But I'm getting tired of your self-indulgent bullshit.

Gaila, what are you so afraid of?

I'm not afraid.

I would just like to know,

Ariel, sweetheart, if we are going to find out exactly what

is going on around here. I don't know. I hope... I truly hope that you will see

what is here for you.

But, well, your attitude isn't helping, I'm afraid.

No more psychology games.

Now, where are Tony and June?

What the hell do you want from me?

I am just trying to help you.

Lila, for Christ's sake.

Lila, you are so used to being hostile and sarcastic that you can't feel

anymore.

No. You've let your impressions of Tony interfere with... come between you and

any man who might want to love you.

I don't know if you can ever, ever feel again anything except resentment.

Why the hell did you do that to her, huh?

Why, you simple-minded little one.

What? You insignificant, cock-minded piss-ass. You run around everywhere

trying to find someone to give you what you think you deserve.

Oh, poor, poor Teddy.

I don't know what the hell you're talking about. Oh, yes, you do. You're

afraid to reach out. You want it all handed to you.

You haven't got the spine to stand on your own two feet and go after what you

want. Oh, you slithering wimp.

Hiding behind your own madness.

Leave me alone, Erlana.

Enter the harem.

You know... You both disgust me with your petty bullshit.

What the hell was that all about?

She was right.

What?

Thank you for defending me, Ted.

Hey, thank you.

I thought she was gonna tear my throat out.

Hey.

Are you okay?

Goddamn her.

She was right.

Perfect.

Ariel!

Hello, June. My, you look beautiful.

Thank you.

Are you ready?

I don't know what I should be ready for.

Why, to be released, June.

First, put some of this on.

This is what I've been wearing all day.

And we have a little secret to keep from a man with a very sensitive nose.

Can't you tell me more about what's going on here?

I mean, where's Tony and the others?

Well, perhaps we should have a little talk before you spread your wings.

I'm sorry, Ted.

I haven't cried like that since I was a little girl.

Was Ariel right about what she said?

That you were afraid to go after what you wanted?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Hell, I expected some perfect woman just to turn up and offer herself to me.

That's true.

Maybe it's time you stop waiting and did something about it.

Oh, no, you don't, Teddy.

You have to go after what you want.

What about you?

If I catch you, will you be able to feel?

Will you be able to feel me or will you be thinking about Tony?

Tony who?

I need a serious answer, Lila.

Well... That's a chance you'll just have to take.

Dan, I don't want you to fuck me.

I want you to make love to me.

Just to make me feel something.

Please.

You ready, June?

I guess so.

Now, I'll stay with you.

Just trust your instincts.

You'll be fine.

Who's there?

Tony. Oh, there you are. I'm not happy to see you.

You're beginning to enjoy it, aren't you, not being in the driver's seat?

Oh, you know it, baby. Listen, but I'm going to explore. I've got to come,

Ariel. I've got to come. Oh, Tony.

Oh, yeah. Well, perhaps I should get you a new partner.

Oh, no.

June, for instance.

June?

Don't make me laugh.

Hey, look.

I mean, June, June, okay, June. June is a lot more than I thought she was, but

June really thinks, I think, that sex is an act of mental retardation at an early

age.

Come on, now what about us, huh?

Oh.

Oh, that's great.

Oh.

Now, do you think June would do that? Oh, come on. Oh, that's great.

Oh, yes, baby.

Oh, yes.

Oh, how can you?

Oh, yes.

Oh.

Oh, yes. Oh.

Oh, yes. I needed that. Oh, it's coming. I'm coming. I'm going to come soon. Oh,

yes. I want me. Oh, damn it. You did it. I can't believe you got four hands.

What? What is going on here? Now, just relax, Tony.

Oh, come on. What the hell? Just relax. Now comes the hard part.

You see.

You have to fuck me, Tony, and you have to make me come before you do.

Understand?

Don't let yourself come, Tony, or else.

Or else.

Oh.

Oh. Yes. All right.

Or else.

I won't.

Oh. Oh, now move slow. Come on, that's it. That's right, Tony.

Tell me how to move. Yes. Now, Tony, you tell me what you want. Oh.

Oh, yes.

Look. Look.

Look. That's not so fast. Not so fast. Oh, that's nice.

Oh, I know.

That's great.

Oh.

Oh, yeah.

Oh, that is... Yeah.

Surprise!

When did you... you... You'll never know, will you?

Look at me.

Get these off of there.

Taste you.

Tell you this.

You just did.

How much to go?

I couldn't find them anywhere.

Just this note.

Thank you for helping me with my studies.

Please, all I ask is that you share this experience with no one beyond

yourselves.

My love, to you all.

Well,

I, for one, think she was some kind of witch.

Not at all.

She was a psychologist who figured out how to get past our fears, that's all.

That's all?

That's all.

That's all.

Simple. Yes.

Well, let's hit the road. Or shall I say, avante, avante.

They're best yet, don't you think so, Harmon?

Of course, madam. I'm rather sorry to see them leave, actually.

There will be others, Harmon. But we did learn so much from these.

I have a suggestion.

A quick trip home and four plane tickets to Greece for the weekend.

No, I think perhaps the Caribbean would be more to my taste.

I'll settle for the first motel with a waterbed. I always wanted to try that.
