Would you...

like to come up to my room?

I'm staying at The Venetian.

It's not that far.

I'm... I'm not quite following.

You want me to come to your room?

Yeah. I mean...

It's something I really feel

like I should do.

Are you interested?

If not, um...

-I guess I could pick somebody else.

-No, no, no. I'll...

I'll come to your room.

Is it just gonna be you and me?

Yes. Yeah.

The two of us.

Uh...

Okay, then.

Let's go.

You sure?

Uh...

Who are you?

My name is Jeanine.

I manage a store specializing

in men's shaving at Century City.

Your body is so soft.

Is that bad?

No.

No, I like it.

I live in L.A. too, on the Eastside.

Where is that again?

East. Near Alvarado?

Oh.

I've never been there.

Who are you?

I'm Wally.

And?

What do you do?

Um... I'm a...

-I'm a writer.

-Hm...

I'm sorry.

I don't read.

That's okay.

I don't know why,

but I find that to be so hot right now.

Thank you.

I'm going to leave now.

I had a great time. Thank you.

Checkout is at eleven. Have a great day.

Have a great day.

["Bluebird" by John Cacavas

and Hal David playing]

I've got a blue bird

Outside of my window

Just like that blue bird

I'm ready to fly

I've got a whole world

Outside my door

Im gonna go places

Like never before

I've got a big dream

To get to the big time

I'll make a big noise

Do wonderful things

I've got a blue bird

Outside my window

- Just like that blue...

-Good morning.

Hey, Wally.

We're glad you found it.

Wally, where did you go?

Your phone was off.

We were looking for you all night.

Oh. Wally, you know Mark Stein.

Hey, Mark. Hey, Wally.

You know, I just wanted

to thank you, guys.

You were right.

We got out of our comfort zone,

and I finally got to meet

a nice, normal girl.

Not judgmental, not hung up,

just as sweet as can be. How much did she cost?

Nothing.

I met her at the bar in the club.

Uh-huh, Wally.

Nope.

It was strictly N.S.A.

Just two consenting adults

enjoying each other's company for a night.

It's the best Valentine's Day

I've ever had.

Come clean, Wally.

It's bugging me.

Just admit that it didn't happen.

Let him have his fun, Jesse.

A fantasy is better than nothing at all.

Mr. Westrum.

Mr. Chuck Westrum, your table is ready.

What's wrong?

It's her.

Her. I don't want her to see me.

The gorgeous blonde?

Yes.

Yeah, right.

Okay, enough, Wally.

This game is getting old.

It's not a game.

Okay. -I'm gonna go get her.

-No! No.

It was a one-time thing.

It will ruin it to see her again.

-Oh, here he is. Hey.

Hi, babe.

We're ready.

How do you explain the boyfriend?

I knew you were a liar.

Now, that guy makes sense.

Oh, my god. Hello.

Who is this, babe?
