185
00:10:23,001 --> 00:10:23,761
Tea?

186
00:10:26,798 --> 00:10:28,593
Tea, please, mate.

187
00:10:28,697 --> 00:10:32,839
We're doing it again tonight,you know, early, 10:00 PM.

188
00:10:32,942 --> 00:10:36,290
Since you missed your chancelast night, it's on the house.

189
00:10:39,328 --> 00:10:41,917
Your friend, he had it coming.

190
00:10:42,020 --> 00:10:45,092
He-- he demonstrated suchlittle respect for the art form,

191
00:10:45,196 --> 00:10:46,818
for my Musidora here.

192
00:10:46,922 --> 00:10:48,613
I had to straighten him out.

193
00:10:48,717 --> 00:10:53,756
I mean, it felt fucking
great, I must admit.

194
00:10:53,860 --> 00:10:55,689
Did you enjoy the
show last night?

195
00:10:55,793 --> 00:10:56,794
You rushed out in such a hurry.

196
00:10:56,897 --> 00:10:58,450
We didn't get a
chance to inquire.

197
00:10:58,554 --> 00:10:59,659
Yeah.

198
00:10:59,762 --> 00:11:00,625
The show was fine.

199
00:11:07,908 --> 00:11:12,395
What would you say
to a private show?

200
00:11:12,499 --> 00:11:15,433
A show just for you?

201
00:11:15,536 --> 00:11:16,641
We accommodate you.

202
00:11:16,745 --> 00:11:19,195
You compensate me.

203
00:11:19,299 --> 00:11:24,028
In your own home, Musidorawith her swords or without.

204
00:11:24,131 --> 00:11:25,788
Now, a private show will
cost a little bit more.

205
00:11:25,892 --> 00:11:27,825
Well, it would, wouldn't it?

206
00:11:27,928 --> 00:11:31,207
But you'd have her
all to yourself.

207
00:11:31,311 --> 00:11:32,174
She could be with you tonight.

208
00:11:35,349 --> 00:11:37,800
She could be with
you at midnight.

209
00:11:37,904 --> 00:11:39,629
And she wouldn't have
to hobble away either.

210
00:11:43,012 --> 00:11:45,843
Let's call it 100 pound.

211
00:11:45,946 --> 00:11:47,085
Are we on?

212
00:11:47,189 --> 00:11:49,432
Got a good price for it?

213
00:11:49,536 --> 00:11:51,331
It's a hotel.

214
00:11:51,434 --> 00:11:55,300
DEAN: Oh, Musidora would
love to meet you there.

215
00:11:55,404 --> 00:11:59,511
[WHISPERING] And she can goslow if she wants to, as well.

216
00:11:59,615 --> 00:12:01,893
So we got a deal?
I'll tell you what.

217
00:12:01,997 --> 00:12:05,310
For you, we'll call it 90 pound.

218
00:12:05,414 --> 00:12:06,760
JAMES [VOICEOVER]: I've
been with other girls

219
00:12:06,864 --> 00:12:09,418
before, girls who could
easily model my father's

00:12:09,521 --> 00:12:12,317
beauty products and did.

221
00:12:12,421 --> 00:12:15,148
Musidora was different-- nostunning features to speak

222
00:12:15,251 --> 00:12:17,771
of, exceptionally average.

223
00:12:17,875 --> 00:12:21,671
But there was more to her--an intangible essence,

224
00:12:21,775 --> 00:12:24,122
a strangeness, like the swords.

225
00:12:31,233 --> 00:12:32,130
[knock on door]

226
00:12:36,721 --> 00:12:37,618
Evening, sir.

00:12:48,837 --> 00:12:49,630
There you go.

229
00:12:56,983 --> 00:12:59,019
You're soaked.
Can I get you a towel?

230
00:13:08,442 --> 00:13:09,236
Here.

231
00:13:16,312 --> 00:13:17,624
What would you like
me to begin with?

232
00:13:25,287 --> 00:13:27,979
Where would you like to begin?

233
00:13:28,083 --> 00:13:30,154
James.

234
00:13:30,257 --> 00:13:31,672
My name, James.

235
00:13:35,849 --> 00:13:36,643
James.

236
00:13:46,239 --> 00:13:48,620
Where would you like
to begin, James?

237
00:13:54,730 --> 00:13:56,697
May I?

238
00:13:56,801 --> 00:13:57,595
Yeah.

239
00:14:22,654 --> 00:14:23,552
Not on the mouth.

240
00:14:28,177 --> 00:14:29,523
Dean said, no
kissing on the mouth.

241
00:14:32,733 --> 00:14:33,527
Sorry.

242
00:14:37,635 --> 00:14:38,532
Do you want this?

243
00:14:41,432 --> 00:14:42,191
What would you like?

244
00:15:01,728 --> 00:15:04,593
I can take off my shoes.

245
00:15:04,696 --> 00:15:06,077
Or I can keep them on.

246
00:15:15,190 --> 00:15:16,053
Anything you want.

247
00:15:22,162 --> 00:15:23,025
What do you want?

248
00:15:27,133 --> 00:15:27,996
We can do the swords.

249
00:15:32,586 --> 00:15:33,967
It doesn't hurt, you know?

250
00:15:38,558 --> 00:15:39,455
I'm in a spell.

251
00:15:39,559 --> 00:15:42,458
I can't feel it.

252
00:15:42,562 --> 00:15:43,459
It doesn't hurt me.

253
00:15:48,637 --> 00:15:51,916
We can have sex.

254
00:15:52,020 --> 00:15:53,918
You have to let me please you.

255
00:15:54,022 --> 00:15:57,542
It's been paid for.

256
00:15:57,646 --> 00:15:58,923
I want to please you.

257
00:16:03,134 --> 00:16:04,135
I have to make you happy.

You have to let me please you.

259
00:16:17,183 --> 00:16:18,322
You'll be very angry if I don't.

You fucked her?

He fucked her.

264
00:16:52,563 --> 00:16:54,392
And he paid for it.

Have you seen what thatfucking gorilla did to me?

266
00:17:01,572 --> 00:17:03,229
And you gave him money.

00:17:03,332 --> 00:17:05,093
What kind of
fucking lot is that?

268
00:17:05,196 --> 00:17:07,785

are such bastards.

00:17:10,650 --> 00:17:11,444
going to explode.

for this psoriasis.

--neutralizes the chlorine.

But somehow, I wanted more.

can be skin again.

Mm-hmm, Musidora.

on some freaky woman

Dean says I am a lot like her.

me from the elements.

Said I must have
been born that way.

Dean calls it a spell.

326
00:19:51,742 --> 00:19:54,296
The rules are, never
challenge the spell.

327
00:19:56,919 --> 00:19:58,404
So I hope you didn't break it.

you in the back row,

you were my only audience.

00:20:10,174 --> 00:20:12,452
And that day in the pubwhen Dean sought you out,

331
00:20:12,556 --> 00:20:14,799
I was so nervous.

332
00:20:14,903 --> 00:20:17,181
I didn't think you'd agree.

333
00:20:17,285 --> 00:20:20,011
But you did.

334
00:20:20,115 --> 00:20:22,738
I don't think Dean would'vebeen too happy if he'd found out

335
00:20:22,842 --> 00:20:24,637
I was nervous.

336
00:20:24,740 --> 00:20:26,225
He says it's like the show.

337
00:20:26,328 --> 00:20:28,261
It's a job.

338
00:20:28,365 --> 00:20:32,196
You do it, you do it
well, and you walk away.

No emotional attachment.

00:20:38,513 --> 00:20:41,170
I don't think he'd be too happyif he found out about this.

00:20:41,274 --> 00:20:42,068
About what?

342
00:20:46,659 --> 00:20:47,453

a thousand times.

to the left, tilt of the headto the right, kiss on the lips.

347
00:21:04,021 --> 00:21:06,610
Could have been as easy
as that, but it wasn't.

348
00:21:09,613 --> 00:21:11,339
I've never been good
with commitment,

00:21:11,442 --> 00:21:15,584
and I felt Musidora waslooking for a commitment.

meant to hurt her.

for the lovely Musidora.

366
00:25:23,798 --> 00:25:26,317
Now, ladies and
gentlemen, allow me

367
00:25:26,421 --> 00:25:31,012
to be the first to make thedemonstration of the swords.

368
00:26:42,014 --> 00:26:44,499
No!

369
00:26:44,603 --> 00:26:45,396
No!

370
00:26:53,508 --> 00:26:56,235
JAMES [VOICEOVER]: I
should have felt more.

371
00:26:56,338 --> 00:26:58,375
But it's strange I didn't.

372
00:26:58,478 --> 00:27:00,688
Or maybe I only allow
myself the numbness

373
00:27:00,791 --> 00:27:03,898
that still remains to this day.

374
00:27:04,001 --> 00:27:07,108
Accountability,
like my father said.

375
00:27:07,211 --> 00:27:11,008
We take responsibility for ouractions, and we live with it.

376
00:27:11,112 --> 00:27:14,563
In the end, a choice wasmade and a spell was broken.

377
00:27:14,667 --> 00:27:15,495
We live.

378
00:27:15,599 --> 00:27:16,393
We feel.

379
00:27:16,496 --> 00:27:17,912
We hurt.

380
00:27:18,015 --> 00:27:22,675
The world makes noexceptions, not even for her.

382
00:27:26,196 --> 00:27:31,650
HOST: Love, the
grandest hunger of all.

383
00:27:31,753 --> 00:27:33,375
Never easy.

384
00:27:33,479 --> 00:27:34,618
I know.

385
00:27:34,722 --> 00:27:35,515
I know.

386
00:27:39,381 --> 00:27:42,315
[speaking french]

387
00:27:42,419 --> 00:27:44,628
May I translate?

388
00:27:44,732 --> 00:27:49,944
Never the rose
without the prick.
