You look great.

Arch your back now.

Oh, Cindy, that's great.

Oh, it's terrific, man.

Very good.

Very good. Are you sure you never did
this before?

Oh, Cindy, you're doing just so well.

All right, now arch your back a little
bit.

Tilt your left shoulder.

Oh, that's terrific.

Are you comfortable?

Yeah, it's not as difficult as I
thought.

Am I doing okay?

You're doing just like a pro.

Are you ready for the lingerie?

Okay.

Jill, can I have the negligee? I got it.

Charles, what do you think?

It seems like more fun than shooting
buildings, but I don't know anything

this boudoir stuff.

I mean, I haven't done figure
photography since college.

Charles, you're a great photographer.

All it is is getting the girls to relax
and be themselves.

And Jill can help you with that.

All right.

Come on, Charles. This calendar shoot in
Tahiti means a lot to me. Now I want to

shut down my business while I'm gone.
Don't you know anybody who redoes this

kind of work?

No, I don't, Charles. Besides, you're
perfect. You're successful, you have

own business, and I've known you
forever.

Come on, don't let me down.

All right, you ready?

Yeah. Okay.

Ed, she's ready.

Okay, now we're going to do a little
striptease.

Are you ready for that?

Okay. Okay, now we're going to go as far
as you want to go.

Remember, it's your boyfriend looking
through the lens, not me.

I knew you'd enjoy this.

So are you going to help Ed out?

Maybe.

I mean, I haven't got any pressing
assignments right now.

Do it, Charles.

Come on, when was the last time you had
fun while you worked?

You can't take off four weeks.

I can.

I've completed the architect review
assignment.

You're really serious, aren't you?

I'm tired, Elaine. You know, I've lost
my enthusiasm.

I need to recharge my batteries, you
know, do something different for a

You just need a holiday.

You think I take life too seriously?

No.

Well, a little.

You can be a bit earnest sometimes, but
I'd hardly call that a serious character

flaw.

Jill said I'm dull.

She said you were dull?

That's what she meant.

She said I should go out and have more
fun, not take life so seriously.

Jill's problem is she doesn't take life
seriously enough.

Yeah, but she seems to be having fun
anyway.

She'd like nothing better than to find a
husband and a house in the suburbs.

I ought to know.

She's my best friend.

What are you doing?

Charles, cut it out.

I have to finish this report.

Stop that.

I've gotten into you.

Good night, honey.

I want to have some fun. You should,
too.

Sometimes, Charlie, you take life too
seriously.

Sometimes, Charlie, you take life too
seriously.

To live with you.

Now, I won't fly coach.

Business class.

Okay. Make it happen.

Some friend you are.

What? I'm not going to kill you.

I'm talking about what you're getting
Charles into.

I think I'd be good for him, Elaine.

Hey, will you guys not talk as though
I'm not even here?

My decision, Elaine.

I think you're out of your mind.

Get my creative juices flowing again.

What's artistic about photographing a
bunch of oversexed nymphettes in trashy

lingerie? I'll be working with people.

Living, breathing, warm -blooded people.

Come on, Elaine. It'll only be for four
weeks.

That's it. It's not like he's giving up
his architectural work, okay?

Fine. Do what you want.

I'm off to work. One of us has to take
our career seriously.

You know, I really love her, but...

I wish she could lighten up sometimes.

Oh, well.

Come on. As soon as you finish your
coffee, we'll go to the studio.

Okay.

Go on, relax.

Watch your step.

Okay, she's all yours.

You ready?

Ready.

Okay, uh, Miss Stevens, we will go over
to the bed, and we'll start with some

headshots, okay?

Okay, um,

uh... Okay, I'll just turn around
slightly that way.

Okay, now I want you to look straight
into the lens for me, okay?

That's good.

Just turn to your left slightly.

No, I'm sorry, to the right. Yes.

Now turn your head to the left. Yes.

That's good, yes. No, just a little bit
further.

And tilt your head slightly down the
chin. That's good.

Okay, now look straight into the lens.

Very good. That's good.

That's very good, Miss Dean.

I can't get her to relax. No wonder.

You look like a virgin on her wedding
night.

Help me, please.

All right.

Bruce, you've got to relax.

Miss Stevens, her name is Michelle.

Then tell her she's beautiful. Make her
feel sexy.

Make love to her with your camera.

No, no, you look great.

Absolutely perfect.

You can do this, Charles.

Okay, now, this time I want you to tease
me, okay?

Okay, now, turn your shoulders a little
profile for me.

That's good, yeah.

Beautiful. Okay, now just move that
strap off your shoulders for me.

Yes, that's great.

Now take your chin slightly for me,
Michelle.

Fantastic.

Yeah, you look beautiful.

You look beautiful, Michelle.

That's great.

the stars are there

to be your eyes and touch your head

I feel your place.

Any good?

Not bad.

For a beginner.

Talk about being sensitive.

Actually, these are quite good. And
you're getting better with every

You know, I really am enjoying this.

I knew you would.

Hey, take a look at this.

We have a set change.

And I talked with Ed. Made a few
suggestions, you know. Something more

you know. Something more designy, but
still erotic.

You like the idea, you know, so we don't
have any appointments tomorrow, right?

So the assemblers are coming early.

My, my, we really are getting into this,
aren't we? I'm just trying to work my

stamp on things.

How's Elaine taking all of it?

You still with that?

Ask her.

You know how Elaine is?

Yes.

She probably thinks that I'm the devil,
tempting you into a life of

irresponsible depravity.

Hmm, I don't know.

Maybe you are.

You know what surprises me?

It's how uninhibited they are.

Why does that surprise you?

Well, I don't know.

If they were professional models, I
wouldn't be so surprised. But these

they're amateurs.

They come in here within minutes,
they're acting like cellophane.

I think they find it liberating.

Obviously.

Are all young girls this adventurous?

Oh, not just the young ones.

I mean, Charles, today women know what
they want and how to get it.

It's a shame Elaine couldn't be this
adventurous.

Oh, I don't know.

Maybe there's a wild animal lurking
underneath that ladylike exterior.

Hmm.

If only.

Right. I'll see you tomorrow, Charles.
Thank you, Jill. Thanks. Good night.

Maybe I don't want to see you.

You know I prefer it with the lights
out.

Let's do it, okay?

Careful. These are expensive.

Not tonight, honey. I'm tired and I
don't want to be up all night.

I've got a big day tomorrow.

Now come up here and do to me the way
you always do.

No.

I'm sorry. I thought you were somebody
else.

Is Ed here?

No, he's out of town for a couple of
weeks. I'm standing in for him.

Oh, we had an appointment today for some
photos.

Today? Your name is?

Pamela. Pamela?

Just Pamela.

And you're?

Charles. You sure it was for today?
There's nothing in the book.

Yes. Maybe because he was doing me a
favor.

I see.

He must have slipped his mind.

He'll be back in three weeks.

Oh, that'll be too late.

What sort of pictures are you looking
for?

Something really sexy.

Something that'll drive this guy in the
wild.

He's leaving town, and I just want him
to know what he's missing.

Will you do them for me?

Sure. We'll make an appointment.

No. I'm into instant gratification.

How about now?

Now? Why not?

Well, my stylist is left for the
evening.

Why do we need a stylist?

You know, makeup,

what you wear.

You think I need makeup?

Not really.

And for what I have in mind, this will
be perfect.

You know, there is another reason.

Why she should be here.

Oh?

Well, you'll be taking your clothes off
and... so that you'll be more

comfortable.

There'll just be two of us here.

Don't worry, Charlie.

I won't take advantage of you, I
promise.

You're just too impressed.

Anyone in life is the same.

Can't get over your pain.

The way that you move.

What the girl think?

Boyfriend? The guy you did this for?

Oh, yeah, him.

So when are the proofs going to be
ready?

Why don't you give me a call in a couple
of days?

On Friday.

Great.

Oh,

yeah.

Charlie, when you were telling me to
imagine my boyfriend, I wasn't.

I did that for you.

Wow, who's the babe?

Hey, when did you do these?

The day the set was changed.

It's a sensational thing.

You did these without me?

You must be out of your mind.

What's the matter? Don't you realize how
risky it is doing these shoots on your

own?

Well, she was okay with it.

Yeah, but what if she decides to yell
rape?

I didn't touch her.

I'm not saying you did.

But if she wanted to take you down, it
would just be her word against yours.

No, she's not that kind of person.

How do you know?

Because she's a sweet, intelligent young
girl.

Oh, right.

With a body like that, why would I think
otherwise?

Wait till you meet her.

You know, Charles, I'm really glad
you're having fun with this. I mean, you

that sparkle back in your eyes.

But you have 15 years invested in your
marriage.

Be careful.

My interest in her is strictly
professional.

Don't say I didn't warn you.

I have some work to do.

I booked a limo. I thought you'd
forgotten I'm leaving today.

No, I hadn't forgotten.

How could I?

Every time I see you, you're either
writing something for that damn

or talking to someone about it.

Well, you know they'll make me a partner
if I do well.

Honey, can you take the bags down? I
have to get ready.

There they are.

You know where I'm staying?

No. I told you. I forgot. I'm sorry.

Embassy Suites, Pennsylvania Avenue. I
left the number by the phone.

Embassy Suites. Got it.

Can you pick me up?

Sure. I thought we could have breakfast
at that little place in the marina.

Okay.

I'm sorry I've been so preoccupied.

A lot's hanging on this conference.

I know.

The plane gets in at 8 .15, flight 4
.15.

4 .15, 8 .15. Got it. Good luck.

Bye.

Thanks.

These are really great.

With a subject like you, it's hard to
get wrong.

Are you hitting on me, Charles?

Think I'm hitting on you?

Well, aren't you?

I think you are an incredibly exciting
young woman.

I have a proposition for you.

Then you are hitting on me.

Look, I want you to pose for me.

I have an idea for an exhibition using
line and form and texture.

Oh, I don't know.

No, I'd pay you, of course.

This is really important to you, isn't
it?

Yes. What?

When I was a student, I wanted to be
more than just a photographer.

I wanted to be an artist.

And somewhere I got sidetracked.

I lost my inspiration.

I think you revived something I thought
was dead.

But why me? I mean, why not a
professional model?

Because you are beautiful.

You have a superb body.

Wow. Men have told me all sorts of
things, but to be someone's inspiration,

that's... Will you do it?

How can I refuse?

When do we start?

Tomorrow morning.

Okay, great.

Okay. Now, you realize I want to do nude
shots, and they will be seen by the

public.

That's fine.

And your boyfriend, he's okay with all
that?

What does he have to do with this?

Well, I thought, you know, perhaps he
may be... No, what I do with my body is

business. Nobody tells me who can see it
or what I can do with it. Nobody.

Okay.

I'll pick you at 8 .30.

In the morning?

Yes, it'll take all day.

Okay, it's early, but 8 .30.

Okay, great.

I'm here for Pamela.

Darn, I thought you were here to see me.

Pamela?

Let me see if I can find her.

Hello? Hi, it's Charles.

If you're here early, come on in.

Morning.

I overslept.

Make yourself comfortable while I grab a
shower.

Okay. That's a nice house.

Thanks.

That won't be long.

There's some coffee on if you want to
help yourself.

Hi.

Hi.

There is some coffee in there if you
want some.

Thanks.

Bye.

Bye -bye.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Are you Inga's or Pamela's?

Pamela's. I mean, we're working
together.

Why?

I'll see you around.

Okay.

Do you need me to bring anything special
to wear?

No, just something you can get in and
out of easily.

What about body makeup?

That'll be fine.

Okay.

Your roommates are very interesting.

Oh, you met them?

Sort of.

Yeah, they can be really grumpy in the
morning.

No, they were fine.

Okay.

Let's go.

Very nice.

We'll be doing the shots in the yard
here.

And you can go get changed in the back.

Okay. Into what?

Nothing?

Exactly.

And when you're ready, you can sleep on
the robe and meet me in the yard, okay?

Okay.

Okay, now, Pamela, lean against the post
for me. Put your left hand down and

your right hand up. That's good.

Arch your back.

That's good.

Now just tilt your head back into the
post for me.

That's beautiful. Just a second.

Widen these fingers out.

You look very beautiful.

That's just all right.

Okay, here we go.

Okay, that's it.

Our light's gone.

I don't know about you, but I'm
starving.

Me too.

Well, perhaps I could take you to
dinner, if you don't have other plans.

Not till much later.

Okay.

Why don't you go ahead and get

dressed and I'll be back in a moment.

Can I look around?

Sure.

Would you like a drink?

Sure. What do you have?

Anything you like. How about some
champagne?

Celebrates our collaboration.

French or domestic?

French. Ah, but of course.

Who's the chef? You or your wife?

I never said I was married.

No?

But you're either married or you live
with a woman.

I'm very observant.

So where is she?

She's in Washington at a conference.

Well, here's to a fruitful, creative
relationship.

Actually, I do most of the cooking.

I mean, Elaine, she cooks breakfast
every now and again, but that's all.

Are you good?

Very good.

My pasta puntanesca is a thing of great
beauty.

Prove it.

Now?

Well, I don't feel like going out to
dinner.

And then I'll know if you're as good as
you say you are.

Or, if like most men, I'll talk.

No action?

I thought you were her when we first
met.

She broke your heart, didn't she?

Well, I had plans for us.

She was the centerpiece of all my work.

And when she left, I, you know, I lost
my way.

So where's she now?

I don't know.

Last I heard, she's living in Paris.

Paris.

She sounds like someone who I would
like.

So when did you meet your wife?

Pretty soon after.

Oh.

Rebound, huh?

Yeah.

Yeah, I suppose.

So now you're restless.

That transparent, huh?

You do want to have an affair with me,
don't you?

I consider that.

Well, you let me know when you make up
your mind.

You were right. The food was fabulous.

Thank you.

Hey, Charles.

Are you as good in bed as you are in the
kitchen?

you

Good night.

You're not coming in?

I can't.

But I want to see you as soon as
possible.

Do you know what you're getting into?

Not entirely.

But I haven't felt this alive in years.

Don't fall in love with me, okay?

What?

You're married.

And I'm my own person.

I know what I'm getting into.

So should you.

So don't fall in love with me.

It only complicates everything.

I don't want anyone getting hurt.

Okay?

No complications?

What are you saying?

Good.

We're having a few people over tomorrow.
You can come if you like.

What time?

Three o 'clock.

What should I bring?

A swimsuit.

I wasn't sure you'd come.

I'm not easy to scare off.

I can see that.

You want some champagne?

I'm sure domestic.

What do you think?

So these are your friends?

Mostly.

Any close friends?

You mean boyfriends?

One or two.

I wouldn't have invited you if things
were going to be too complicated.

Come on.

I think you're going to like this part.

Don't get it wet.

So what do you do, Charles?

I'm a photographer.

Oh, cool.

You want to take some photos of me?

Back off, Melinda.

I felt first.

Having fun?

What are you doing here?

You invited me. And I also uninvited
you.

Who's your boyfriend?

One of your father's golfing buddies?

You were never very funny, Mike.

I see you haven't improved.

Look, I said I was sorry.

What do you want me to do, get down on
my hands and knees and beg?

It's over, Mike.

Can't you get that through your muscle
-bound head? I don't want to see you

again. Look, I'm not another one of your
boy toys. Let go of me!

You're hurting me!

Take these hands off of her.

What happened to the lover boy?

Don't worry. He won't be back.

How's your head?

The sun. How's my eyes?

Do you know where you are in the land?

Yeah, it's Madison Square Garden. I'm
here to referee.

Just still to fight.

Can I get you anything?

No, I'm fine.

Is there anybody else you're going to
worry about?

No, he's just a jerk.

Does it hurt?

Only when I laugh.

You're so sweet and brave.

What compulsive romantic.

I can't resist a damsel in distress.

I'm touched.

You deserve a very special reward.

This is for your eyes.

But sure, not this.

You underestimate your power of
recovery, don't you?

Don't worry.

You just lie back.

Relax. I'll be very careful.

Isn't this a little public?

Sure is.

Exciting, huh?

How's Elaine's conference going?

I don't know.

You haven't spoken to her?

Nope.

I'm sure she'll call if something
exciting happens.

Well, I tried to call you over the
weekend.

I was out on a shoot.

Oh?

I thought you'd postponed all your work.

No, I was doing some shots for an
exhibition I have in mind.

An exhibition?

That's great.

You know, you were right.

I wasn't a rut.

But I really feel like I got my soul
back now.

I am so glad this is working out for
you, Charles.

But be careful you don't neglect the
business that you've taken years to

Elaine would never forgive me.

Jill, have you ever been faced with a
moment in your life where you have a

choice? One way is safe, a smart thing
to do.

The other is dangerous but exciting.

Takes you places you've never been
before.

You know what I mean?

Yeah.

So which way do you go?

What do you think?

But my life's a mess.

But you know you're alive, right?

Yes, if you're feeling something, you
can't be dead.

You know, this lust for life you're
feeling, it wouldn't have anything to do

with a certain young woman, would it?

What if I said it did?

Charles, you know, I'm your friend just
as much as Elaine, but please don't put

me in the middle of this.

I don't want to have to choose sides.

Hi, honey.

I was just leaving to the airport to
pick you up.

Did you miss your plane?

I'm not coming home today.

Was anything wrong?

No. Head office wants me to stay a few
days.

They're going to offer me a partnership.

I'm sure of it.

Oh, that's great.

How long have you gone?

I've rebooked for Thursday morning.
Flight 415.

It gets in at 8 .15.

Can you pick me up?

Sure. Thursday, flight 415 to 8 .15. Got
it.

Charles? Yeah?

You sound different.

Is everything all right?

Yeah. Couldn't be better.

I'll see you Thursday, okay?

Bye.

Charles? Mm -hmm?

How old are you?

Forty -ish.

Do you always dress like that?

Like what?

Oh, I don't know.

Like your father?

I hope you know my father's a very sharp
dresser. Oh, really?

Yeah. How's your credit?

Platinum. Let's go.

Where? Shopping.

This is meant to be fashion?

I'm looking like a biker.

What's that?

Hold it.

What are you doing with that?

It's gel.

You'll love it. No, no. Be careful.

It's greasy.

Pamela, are you sure about this?

Does that answer your question?

Yeah, I guess so.

Three beer.

The beer!

Okay, that's it. I think we got it.

You sure?

Yeah, you're sensational.

How can I miss?

No, you were great. Really.

So, when's Elaine coming back?

Tomorrow morning.

Not a moment too soon.

What are you doing tonight? You want to
hang out? Watch a movie?

No, I've got plans tonight.

I hope she's worth it.

She is.

What's the matter?

Is she all right?

Oh, that's only anger.

She always screams like that when she's
having an orgasm.

Which doesn't sound like she's having
fun.

She's sweetish.

What is it?

I'm supposed to pick up Elaine from the
airport.

What time?

Now.

I'll never make it.

Will you call me?

You're still alive.

Charles.

I really like you.

Good night, good night, sweetheart.

Bye.

Good luck.

Thanks.

I must have just missed you.

What's going on, Charles?

What do you mean?

I called you yesterday.

I called you early this morning before I
left Washington.

All my messages are still on the
machine.

I was in the studio. I was working.

Working? On what?

Something for myself for a change.

I used to be able to count on you.

Rely on you.

What's happening to you, Charles?

Look, Elaine, I'm sorry I missed you at
the airport, okay?

But for once in my life, I'm doing
something for me.

You got a problem with that?

When it totally disrupts our life
together? Yes, I do.

We don't have a life together.

I mean, you have your life, your
precious career, and I have mine.

And occasionally we come together for
some uninspired sex.

I'd hardly call that a life, would you?

Hell, you haven't even had time to have
a kid.

You bastard.

Yeah. Well, apparently you had your
priorities, and now I've got mine.

Well, if that's the way you feel, then
maybe you'd like to spend a little time

on your own.

You know what, Elaine?

That's the best idea you had in years.

Charles, where are you going?

changing my life for the better.

You're going to throw away 15 years of
marriage just like that?

I know what I'm doing.

You two have been through tough times
before.

Don't throw it all away just because you
think you found the fountain of youth

in the arms of some bimbo.

She's not a bimbo.

Sorry, but you know what I mean.

Our marriage is a sham, Jill.

I mean, nothing was happening.

We could go days barely talking to each
other.

But you used to love each other.

Yeah, but with Pamela, it's more
exciting.

You can't possibly love this girl.

I mean, you've told me yourself you know
practically nothing about her.

I don't care.

Look, I was dead inside.

I just didn't know it.

Well, I think that's unfair to blame all
of that on Elaine.

Relationships require work.

Okay, but share the blame. It doesn't
change anything.

Where are you staying?

I'm going to stay here until I find
somewhere I like.

So, you okay to still live with me?

I don't know. You men.

It takes you 20 -odd years to get you
through your adolescence and then your

midlife crisis is.

Back to square one.

Come on, then. We've got our first
client in five minutes.

So it is a woman.

Yes.

Don't ask me anything else.

I hate being in the middle of this.

I should have seen it coming.

Face it, Elaine.

You were so busy with your work, you
wouldn't have noticed it if he was doing

on the living room floor.

This conference was the most important
step in my career.

They made me a partner.

But he didn't care.

He didn't even ask.

Do you want him back?

Not unless he grows up.

He's a guy that could take a really long
time.

You know, he's only the second man I've
ever been with.

It's true.

I'd had a steady boyfriend before him,
and Charles only had two or three women

before me.

We were both on the rebound.

We got married six months after we met.

Well, you know, my grandmother has a
saying.

When the marriage is on the rocks, the
rocks are in bed.

I suppose Charles is saying it was all
my fault?

I was dull in bed?

No.

Well, he's right.

It was dull.

But is that my fault?

He never tried to be romantic, or send
me flowers, or even spend time turning

on. All he wanted to do was get on, get
in, get off, and go to

sleep.

I know I could have done better, but so
could he.

So what now?

What do you feel like doing?

Truthfully, I want to get even.

There you go.

So what do you want to see?

What about the current horror movie
everyone's been talking about?

I hate having to read subtitles.

Okay.

How about the new Scorsese film?

It's not too serious.

What about the new Julia Roberts movie?
I love Julia Roberts. Yeah?

Okay.

You don't want to see it, huh? Yeah, I
do. I do want to see it.

Hey.

Jill, I can't wear this.

I look like a hooker.

Exactly, but a very expensive hooker. I
don't know about this.

I don't feel comfortable, especially in
these shoes. Why do they have to be so

high?

They're very sexy.

I'm starting to feel wicked.

That's the spirit.

Now let's go have some fun.

I'm so nervous. I feel like I'm at my
first prom.

This is a great selection tonight.

So, what do we do now?

Now?

Oh, wait.

You don't have to justify it. You hated
it, didn't you?

No, no, no.

I didn't.

I just don't understand how you spend so
much money on such dumb stories.

I don't know how you could enjoy
anything when you're always sitting

mentally taking notes. I don't.

But a story's dumb.

It's dumb.

And if I enjoy them, I'm what, stupid?

But dumb.

That's what you think, don't you?

Gracious.

Beautiful.

Sexy. And smart.

Intriguing.

Insatiable. Intelligent. Say it.

Ow! Ow! Careful!

Say it. Or you'll be sitting in the
crowd.

All right, all right, all right, all
right.

Incredibly intelligent.

You're a female Einstein.

You don't have to go overboard.

I mean, just smart would do.

You really think so? Yeah.

I really do.

So what else do you like to do besides
movies?

You got a theater?

Yeah. I saw Phantom three times.

Yeah?

What about, you know, concerts?

Oh, yeah. I went to see Pearl Jam. They
were great.

Yeah?

You know, classical stuff, that sort of
thing, you know? Ballet?

Sometimes.

I kind of think that stuff's a little
stodgy.

What do you like?

I like to dance until I drop.

I like to swim naked in the ocean.

I like to ride on the back of a Harley
with a guy wearing leather, with me

wearing a short skirt and no panties.

But most of all...

Stay here forever. Hey, check it out.

Hey, here they are. All right.

Make some noise, boys.

Come on down.

Who is it?

What are you wearing?

Charles?

What are you wearing?

A dress.

What are you doing?

Are you wearing panties?

This is not a 900 number, you know.

If you are, get them off and get that
beautiful butt out of here.

What are you doing?

Happy birthday, when you are -

We'll be right back.

Good night.

You've got some pretty slick moves for
an old married guy.

I have experience on my side.

Shouldn't you be getting home?

How do you feel about me making
breakfast?

Elena let you stay out all night?

All night and every night.

I left her.

Why did you do that?

It was over.

I need more in her life than she could
give me.

You made me realize that.

Shit.

What's the matter?

I don't want to be a homewrecker.

If you're leaving your wife because of
me, you better think again.

What's the matter? Don't you want to be
with me?

No, not like that.

I told you from the start, don't fall in
love with me.

I don't want a serious relationship.

I just wanted us to have fun.

I thought that's what you wanted, too. I
do.

Then don't load me down with being
responsible for you leaving your wife.

I didn't ask you to, did I?

No, I know. I just thought that, you
know... Don't you understand?

I liked that you were married.

It made it more exciting.

More exciting, huh?

I don't find lying, cheating, and making
excuses all the time all that exciting.

So you think that's too uncool, huh?

This is getting too heavy.

I think you better go.

Should I call you?

In a day or two, okay?

You okay?

Want to buy a holly?

I'll give you a good deal.

What? I said I'd listen to you.

I told Pamela I left Elaine thinking
she'd be pleased.

Instead, it was like switching off a
light bulb.

She doesn't want to see you anymore?

I don't think so.

She said to call in a couple of days.

Maybe she just needs some time.

She probably doesn't want you falling in
love with her, or vice versa.

Yeah, that's what she said when we first
got involved.

You didn't listen, huh?

Obviously not.

Charles, when a woman tells you
something like that, listen.

You spoken to Elaine yet?

Yeah, I tried.

She's pretty hostile.

With good reason.

Tell me something.

Do you feel anything for her?

Elaine? Yeah, I mean, she's great. I
mean, she's, you know, beautiful.

We like the same things. You know,
music, art, food.

Well, perhaps that's the problem.
Perhaps we just know each other too

I think you're missing the point.

I mean, having someone to share the
quiet times, that's what it's all about,

isn't it?

That's not enough.

I mean, Elaine was never like Pamela in
bed, not even when we first met.

I mean, I don't think she's even
interested in sex.

Are you sure we're talking about the
same person?

Well, is there something here I should
know about?

Quite a lot.

He didn't call.

I didn't think you wanted me to.

I said call, didn't I?

Aren't you going to ask me in?

Yeah.

Can I get you a drink?

No, thanks.

I'm sorry about the other night.

You just caught me off guard.

I should have thought a better way to
tell you.

So...

We still friends?

Is that all you want from me? A date
every once in a while?

Well, what more do you want?

You want us to fall in love?

And then what?

Get married?

Have kids?

I'm not ready for all that.

These are the best years of my life, and
I'm going to make the most of them.

I really like being with you, Charles.

And I love having sex with you.

Isn't that enough?

Don't spoil it by talking about love.

I don't want to be tied to anyone right
now.

I see.

So you stay tonight?

I'd love to, but I can't.

Date?

Don't ask, Charles, okay?

I told you I need Miss Bass.

Tomorrow.

You come to my house tomorrow night.

And I'll have a big surprise for you.

I gotta go.

I'll show myself out.

Thank you.

She didn't waste any time, did she?

I wasn't spying.

Anyway, it's still my house, isn't it?

Well, what did you expect?

For her to sit at home crying, waiting
for you to crawl back with your tail

between your legs? You put her up to
this, didn't you?

Oh, she didn't need much encouragement.

Oh, great.

You didn't see what she was doing to
this guy.

I can imagine. She never did anything
like that with me.

I wonder why.

What did you say?

Nothing.

you're blaming me aren't you i mean you
you said you wouldn't take sides i'm not

look both of you are driving me crazy it
seems to me that if you're each doing

things with other people that you never
did with each other then you never

really knew each other i mean you may
think this is simply about sex but i'd

that sex is simply a symptom not the
illness

Hi, it's me.

What do you want, Charles?

Would you pick up the phone? I feel like
I'm talking to a lawyer.

Deal with it.

I was thinking, we need to talk.

I tried to talk, but you just walked
out.

It was your idea.

I was angry.

People say things they don't mean when
they're angry.

But you just wanted an excuse to leave
to be with, what's her name, Miss

Slippery Thighs.

Elaine, we were together 15 years. You
owe me this at least.

All right.

But not tonight.

Tomorrow. That's fine. I have something
to do tonight.

I bet you do.

It's not what you think.

Come in.

Come sit down.

It's beautiful.

Is it for your exhibit?

No, it's for you.

Say thank you and goodbye.

I see.

It's over then, is it?

Yeah.

I couldn't accept a relationship on your
terms.

I'm sorry you feel that way.

We had some good times, though.

Yeah.

Never a dull moment.

No hard feelings?

No.

I learned a lot from you. You're quite a
woman.

Bad timing, huh?

Yeah.

So what are you gonna do?

Are you gonna go back to your wife?

I don't know.

I don't want to go back to what I was
before.

Not that.

So I guess I'll just play it by ear.

Charles, wait.

You won't forget me, will you?

So, how have you been?

I've had better days.

You seen the lawyer yet?

Not yet. Have you?

No. From what I've heard, you wouldn't
have had time.

Oh, you haven't exactly let the grass
grow into your feet either.

Is this what you've come to talk about?
Because if it is, the conversation's

over. No, no, no, no. Look, it's no
point in dragging each other over the

okay?

Okay.

So.

What do you want?

Do you think there's any chance of us
getting back together again?

You expect me to forget everything
you've done and take you back?

Just like that?

Just pick up where we left off as if
nothing's happened? Not like it was.

Like it should have been before we lost
track of each other.

I get it.

She's dumped you, has she?

Not exactly, but it is over.

I won't be seeing her again.

Isn't this where I came in?

I'm not interested in another rebound
relationship.

It's not the same. It's not the same, I
promise you. Look, I'm sorry I hurt you,

okay?

Just give me another chance.

Tell me something.

Were you ever really in love with me?

I still am.

Are you sure it's me?

What do you mean?

When we made love, not all the time, but
sometimes, it felt like you were never

paying attention to me.

That you were, I don't know, never
really with me, making love to me.

Where'd you go, Charles?

See if you agree with Eve.

Elaine was right.

I was making love to a ghost.

I'd never really gotten over Julia.

And now you have?

Absolutely.

I did that to say goodbye to Pamela.

Well, don't feel too bad.

I think in some ways this has been good
for you.

You're a changed man, Charlie.

I could even go for you myself.

And these are fine.

I called Elaine to see if she thought
things over.

Either she wasn't home or she didn't
want to speak to me.

So I suppose it's over.

Well, you never know.

You ready for your next appointment?

You shouldn't have taken a booking
without checking with me. I'm not in the

for this.

I tried to put her off. I did, but she
said it was urgent.

What's she like?

She's beautiful.

Very sexy.

Is she ready?

Mm -hmm.

Okay, let's get this over with.

I'll be glad when it gets back.

Where are you going?

Won't be long. You can start without me.

I'll be right with you.

Have you done this sort of thing before?

Not really.

But I hear you're quite the
photographer.

So where do you want me?

Anywhere you like.

I used to be so blind.

Follow you like a child.

Because I just couldn't see where my
life was taking

me. The only thing that I had was making

me walk so sad.

I stopped chasing.
