So I was basically a career student until Paul got sick and then I had to go back to

Well, all I was really qualified to do was teach.

Doctorate in philosophy doesn't lend itself to

many careers, let's face it, so teaching it was.

Well, I guess I'll probably end up a teacher then.

You really want to stick with philosophy? I do.

Right now it's probably my favorite subject.

Maybe I just have a great teacher, though.

Ah, he's buttering me up so he can get an A.

Well, if that's buttering you up, then I gotta say, your

eyes look beautiful in the candlelight this evening.

B plus.

Night's still young, though.

In that case, I think I'll have a little more wine.

Would you like some more wine?

Yeah, absolutely.

Thank you.

Top her off.

So, do you always listen to classical music?

Not all the time.

What do kids listen to these days?

Trap music?

I can't believe he just said trap music.

Come on, I'm not that out of touch.

No, it's not that.

It's just like, I didn't think someone as brilliant as you would know what that meant.

It's not like an age thing or anything.

I'm digging myself a hole.

I'll just shut up.

Well, you're not wrong that some intellectuals prefer classical music.

Yeah, I'm told it's because like, well, it's like

for thinking, because they can't really dance to it.

Excuse me.

You certainly can.

Come here.

Come on.

I'm going to show you the box step.

I promise you that we'll drive a girl's life.

Okay, so, let's come with this like this.

And so, I'm like this.

And so, I will be you.

So, you would normally lead, but I'm going to teach you.

And so, just follow what I do and we go with the same leg, okay?

So, take your left, and so you go back.

And that side together.

And then, okay.

Okay.

And then back again.

There you go.

Okay, next.

The goal is to make it on this one.

The goal is to make it like fluid.

So, it kind of like glides.

Yeah.

I think you did.

Ah, there you go.

What's the one where the guy kind of grabs the girl and does the big tuck?

Oh, that one?

That's the tango.

Ah, that's right.

Okay.

What's the other one?

That was a little workout.

Man, I come over here to learn philosophy, and I ended

up learning about classical music and the box step.

I'm sorry, that was totally my fault.

Maybe from now on we should stick to meeting at my office.

I don't know.

I kind of like this teaching style.

Well, at least we talked a little about Tolstoy

and death and suicide and all that fun stuff.

Yeah, I think like what, 10, 15 months?

No, I think it was more like five.

Well, I guess we should call it a night.

I hope I managed to answer at least some of your questions, and if there's anything

else, just feel free to email me or we can set up some office time.

You're just a terrific student, Michael.

And I'm so happy you're thinking of going home for your PhD.

Thank you, professor.

Honestly, that means a lot.

Um, hey, can I help you clean up with any of this stuff? No, no.

I'm going to leave it till the morning.

Just wait.

Let's just go home and get some rest, alright? Okay.

Are you sure you're okay to ride that bike?

I wouldn't want you swarming into a bush.

Well, if I did, you'd feel pretty obligated to give me an A, wouldn't you?

Let's not go crazy, pal.

Drive safe.

I'll see you in class.

Alright.

Good night, professor.

Good night.

Hey, so, um, I was wondering, um, just out with it, right?

Um, do you want to, like, sleep with me?

I'm sorry, what?

I said, you know, like, do you want to sleep with me?

Do you want to be with me?

I mean, not to put you on the spot or anything, but, you know, Veritas,

right?

Where's your bedroom? This way.

Oh,

God.

Argh.

Oh.

Ooh.

Oh.

Ugh.

Mmm.

Mmm.

Mmm.

Mmm.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.

Mmm...

Ah...

Ah...

Ah...

Ah...

Ah...

Ah...

Ah... Ah... Ah... Ah... Ah... Ah...

Ah... Ah... Ah... Ah... Ah...

Ah...

Aaa.

Aaa.

Aaa.

Ah... Ah... Ah... Ah...

Do you ever maelstŒr it?

What kind of question is that?

Everyone master-baits, don't they?

Do you think about me?

When I masturbate?

I wouldn't be ethical.

No, but fucking me in real life is fine.

Well, the goalpost has booted in the past few hours.

Well, let me ask you a question.

Yeah, sure.

Did you really want to learn about tall story or was

this all some big charade to get in my bed? Oh, man.

I knew you were going to ask that.

But no, I actually really, really like tall story's philosophy on death.

When I was younger, I kind of went through like a little rough patch where I was

suicidal and that's what means a lot to me.

Oh, Michael, I'm so sorry.

Yeah.

Maybe that's why I have such a mommy complex.

Maybe you're just a very bad boy.

You know, I've been told that before.

Oh, yes, I can't.

Oh, oh, oh, oh.

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

Oh, oh, oh, oh.

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

So, how old is he? I'm not sure.

Late teens, early twenties, maybe?

So he's young enough to be your son.

Oh, without question.

And you've been intimate with him?

Yes.

Let's talk about that.

Okay.

When did you decide you were going to have sex with him?

I think it was when he kissed me and said, where's your bedroom?

You mentioned that you both had been drinking.

Well, we had a bottle of wine, so about two glasses

each, but I wouldn't say we were full-down drunk.

You talked about how he had asked you what he would need to do to get an A,

how far he would need to go.

That was a joke.

We found him.

We were both joking about it.

Jokes are a way of communicating something real sometimes.

I feel like you don't approve.

It's not my role to approve or disapprove.

Well, you're making me feel judged.

Look, it was the mutual decision.

We made love.

Nobody was taking advantage of anybody.

Let me ask you something.

What grade do you plan on giving Michael?

Well, I guess it depends on how well he does on his final.

We

actually, the Indian, the Eastern...
