-What about foreplay?

-We've had it for 3 months. Relax.

It'll never be that

fast again. I promise.

Look, I was really nervous

that first night...

but I think I more than made up

for it the second time.

He really did make up for it.

And the cake was

a perfect encore.

She used to do

the cutest things...

Like scratching my stomach

when she wanted it in the morning.

Understandably, we'd have to keep

our faces from each other.

Morning breath is a killer.

Of course, when he wanted it

in the morning he wasn't so subtle.

-But those were the best days.

-The honeymoon days...

-Where nothing mattered.

-Nothing but us.

But it wouldn't be long before

the year was over ...

-I was going to France that summer.

-I told her it's only France, 3 months.

-It wouldn't be so bad.

-I didn't want to leave.

I didn't want the year to end.

It was the best year of my life.

I'm in love.

-Tingles and everything?

-Yeah, tingles and everything.

Love is a hoax. Our emotions are

all provoked by chemical reactions.

It creates this euphoria

that makes you stupid.

It's all biochemistry. Trust me.

It was my major.

I'm afraid it's true, Al.

All romantics are simply addicts.

You guys just need to experience

something of substance.

-Then you'll know my language.

-Prove this love.

You speak of its power.

Why not show us?

One of these is love,

the other, illusion.

Drink each and choose,

but choose wisely...

for there is no second chance.

You cannot have a test

without a wager.

Point taken.

If you fail, you have to be an extra

in the picture tomorrow night.

-And if I win?

-Then I'll buy you...

...an all-you-can-eat sushi dinner.

-I don't want all the sushi I can eat!

Trust me, you will.

Now drink.

Chop-chop.

The second one.

-You're certain?

-I'm positive.

This is love.

You chose illusion.

I... I didn't.

It's love, I know it.

Call us at 9 PM, baby.

Be ready to shine.

There's a party in 4O6.

Want to go?

I'm your friend so it's my duty

to warn you.

Soon those tingles will disappear

and you won't know what hit you.

Actually, I'm not going

to be around tonight.

No? Why?

I promised Monk I'd be en extra

in a film he's directing.

What?

I promised Monk I'd be an extra

in a film he's directing.

-You'll be an extra in a porno movie?

-An epic. They reinvented the genre.

-You're not going...

-No.

Besides, they're

paying me fifty bucks.

You'd rather be on

a movie set than...?

It's a battle scene and

the regular extras are on strike.

I'm leaving for France in two weeks

and instead of sleeping with me...

you'd rather be a day-player

in some flick?

-It's an extra. It's a pay difference.

-Fine. This way we have it.
