They're red shoes.

Some overpaid ad exec had a brainstorm.

They would create the Alphabet Girl, revealing her each week in a different

magazine, captured with a different letter of the alphabet.

April 19th. A.

A is for Aphrodisiac.

April 20th.

B is for banana.

Yep, you guessed it, red shoes.

I'm her The Alphabet Girl.

My big break.

Hey,

girl.

Listen, I really need you to start feeling something.

I can't.

We're shooting a lot of pictures.

But I'm not looking at anything.

I need you to feel something.

Something real.

And you've got to really connect.

Otherwise it's just a picture.

And it's a waste of time for me.

April 21st.

According to the great and wise at Waterman, C is for courage, but C is

also for cat, cantaloupe, candor, cookie, coffee,

couple, and completely happy.

E is for ecstasy.

No. Not now.

Yeah. Stop it.

I want to be real. Stop it. No.

Hey. That was for friendship.

Who's that?

Dahlia. Who's Dahlia?

She was Matthias' girlfriend before you.

Very beautiful.

I read somewhere about a tribe in Africa that refuses to have their picture

taken.

They say that photographs steal your soul.

Think it's true?

Yeah, well, you know what they say about souls.

Very, very big things. We can afford a little theft.

And coming into the third turn, it's all...

Here comes Volga. Never underestimated Romania.

What a gal.

Come on, Volga. Come on, Volga. Come on.

Volga's still in there.

She's putting up a fight.

Just look at those thighs of steel, Bob. That's right. She was a world-class

wrestler at the age of seven.

It's vulgar, Pop.

No, it's vulgar. Vulgar! No, it's vulgar.

What's he like?

Tell me about it.

Do you have any other brothers or sisters?

What about your mom and your dad?

So, I guess you don't like to talk about your family, huh?

I know a lot of people like that, including me.

You want to talk about cameras? Let's talk about cameras.

When I was a kid, I looked through a brownie, and that was it.

I love taking pictures, you know.

That's why I'm here, to learn, you know.

I mean, Matias, he's got it all.

He understands lighting, faces, everything.

The question is, why are you here?

I mean, I know you're a model and everything, but what are you doing with

him?

I just can't stand to see him use you.

I've seen him do it before with other models, and it never bothered me.

But with you, it's different.

You're too special for him.

You're a real person with real feelings.

Fuck.

There, I said it.

I just hope you don't hate me.

Good.

Because I couldn't stand it if you hated me.

I know that he's using me.

The truth is, I'm using him too.

You understand that?

Guess what I'm saying?

I'm going to say one thing to you, and then I'll never bring it up again.

Don't underestimate yourself.

Okay?

Okay.

Geez. For Grandma.

you look so peaceful babes in the woods

M, of course, is for Matthias.

N is for night.

O.

O is for orphan, which I am, by the way.

Only one.

Once upon a time. What are you doing here?

Get in. Let's go for a spin.

Come on.

Q is for question.

R is for response.

What's going on?

I want to do some pickup shots.

You weren't around.

You said we weren't shooting today.

So I went out.

Well, that's your decision.

So what are you going to do?

Just hire another girl?

What about me?

What about you?

I want this.

How badly?

Well, tell me, how badly?

Show me.

Come on in.

I just made some tea.

Come on, let's get you warm.

So... This is my capsule.

I'm King here.

A broken lowly assistant when I step out the door, but, uh... King here.

That's alright. You don't have to smile if you don't feel like it.

You don't have to do anything you don't want.

Leave her alone.

Come on. Go.

You begged me.

You fucking begged me.

And now you give me this shit?

Matthias, please.

I think you'd better leave.

I love you.

I take care of you. Everything.

Your food, your clothes.

If I take it away, what are you going to do?

What?

What's he going to do for you?

What's he going to give you?

Think about it, Vanessa.

Think about what?

You fucking her?

Is that what you want?

He's a kid.

He thinks with his dick.

Keep your hands off.

Do you want to go with him?

Choose.

S is for surrender.

T is for tears.

what you're thinking, Red Shoes.

How could she spend that last night with him if she knew she was going to leave

him in the morning?

But I think you already know the answer.

I just have to.

G is for goodbye.

Hope we can still be friends.

When you know it'll never work.

And G is for goodbye.

If only it could stay just the way it is.

When you know it never will.

And G is for goodbye.

I love the feel of his body next to mine.

And I love to be taken care of.

Fuck you.

And G is for goodbye.

Of waking up at sunrise.

And getting dressed and walking out the door.

Without ever looking back.

Where are you going to go?

Jesse's going to help me find a place.

See how it goes.

Sorry.

Really sorry.

Not sleeping with him.

Agency saw the pictures.

They really liked him.

In fact, they're crazy about him.

I'm scared.

I didn't love the big girl.

I really do love you.

So where am I taking this?

And G is for goodbye.

And G is for goodbye.

And unfortunately, E is for...

May 25th. V is for Vanessa.

Neither virgin nor virago, but voyager.

Vital, voluntary, voyager.

W is for wisdom.

Y is for youth, young, youngster.

And Z is always for zebra.

I'm glad she didn't skip one.

Terrible to miss that on your youth.

What if you were never a puppy?
