Husbands and Wives Page #2

Shawn Grainger, she's built|out to here.

You will have the time of your life.

And for $200, believe me,|it's a bargain.

I'm not gonna do it.|What about AIDS?

She's not a whore.|She's a high-class call girl.

She'll do anything you want.|And on top of it, she's got friends.

What about my wife? It's dangerous.

Who was the guy who told me...

...that your sex life|wasn't so terrific?

Come on, at a two-martini|lunch I'll say anything.

Shawn has got a mouth|like velvet. Believe me.

She was a former|Miss Something-or-Other.

What exactly did I say at lunch?

You said that Sally was cold,|and you were...

...dying to f***|your aerobics trainer.

I should never drink at lunch.

I'm gonna write down the number.

- I advise you to...|- What are you doing?

Hey. What...?

Have I steered you wrong?

- I've never...|- Get out of here.

There it is. Use it.

He called. I thought it was about|a month after he got my number.

He was polite on the phone.|A little tense.

I can always tell who's inexperienced.

He wanted to meet|at the Americana Hotel.

When I got there he was very polite,|very gentlemanly. Very nervous.

He couldn't go through with it.|He couldn't get it up.

He had pains in his chest.|I thought it was...

...a heart attack, but they passed.

- That was the last you saw of him?|- He called a couple of months later.

We met at the same hotel.|This time he slept with me.

Then I started seeing him fairly|regularly, every two, three weeks.

He said he'd seen a psychiatrist|and worked out his problem.

Once I couldn't make it|so I sent a friend.

Then he started seeing both of us.

Then neither one of us|ever saw him again.

- At least he threw the number away.|- Well, as far as I know.

But Jack is not a hooker guy.

He's very strait-laced.

And Sally's cold in bed.

That's no surprise.|She's very cerebral.

Am I cold in bed?

No. Why would you say that?

But I'm inhibited, right?|You said that.

You can't forget that.|We had one minor argument years ago.

Which you blew up into|a major confrontation...

Do you ever want to sleep|with a whore?

Me? No, definitely not.

When I was in college, I did.

Yeah?

You're in an odd mood. Their breakup|has definitely affected you.

You think...

You think we'd ever break up?

What? I'm not planning it, are you?

- No.|- Okay.

But I don't know how I'll feel if you|still don't wanna make me pregnant.

Are we gonna have that|conversation again?

- You have a daughter...|- Yeah.

I want another.

Why?

It's cruel to bring life|into this terrible world.

Don't glorify your refusal|on philosophical grounds.

You should see the angry look|on your face when you say that.

You wanna make love?

Okay, if we can get|into it in some way.
