Petunia Page #3

Synopsis: An off beat family of New Yorkers must come to terms with their own misgivings about life, relationships and the sheer unpredictability of love itself. Petunia weaves together the lives of brothers Charlie (Tobias Segal), Adrian and Michael (Eddie Kaye Thomas) as they unlearn everything their psychoanalyst parents have taught them. While Michael's cynical wife Vivian (Thora Birch) discovers she is pregnant, the family is also changing. Charlie's would be boyfriend George (Michael Urie) is in a polyamorous relationship with fitness fanatic Robin (Brittany Snow) and Adrian has developed a unrelenting sex addiction. Meddling parents Felicia (Christine Lahti) and Percy (David Rasche) must decide whether to reignite the spark in their relationship or start all over again. Petunia is a film about a dysfunctional family unit on the verge of a nervous breakdown. This is the story of how they pick up the pieces.

OK, but I would like to get

something off my chest.

Go ahead.

Hello, everyone.

My name is Tony, and I am a sex addict.

Hi, Tony.

I have a taste for the classics.

1920s flapper porn, '50s housewives

with straight up vacuums.

Anything that's '60s Danish hardcore.

It's the addiction, Tony.

It's OK.

We've all been there.

Anyone else?

I will.

Ah.

Please, share with us.

Hi. I'm Natasha,

and I am a sex addict.

Hi, Natasha.

I love men, women, sex of all kinds.

Back door.

Front door.

Side door.

Anywhere.

Anytime.

Any place.

With anyone.

Oh, yeah.

Oh, my God.

Oh, I love you.

Ah.

...Code six.

125 North Vanderbilt, 52.

- Hey.

- Hi.

Whoa!

Seriously?

I wanted to do that.

I can't.

I don't do sex.

Oh, come on.

It's not that hard.

No.

Oh...

It's the outfit.

I can't resist.

You're drunk, huh?

Obvious?

Sorry.

What's that noise?

Is someone in there with you?

I should probably tell you this...

I listen to police scanners

from various US cities.

Overshare.

Are you on the run?

- No.

- Oh.

It's purely for entertainment purposes.

Plus, when they catch a perp,

I look them up on Facebook.

Do you?

You want some back up?

You don't need

Sex Addicts Anonymous, Adrian.

No, that's the perk of

having me for a mother.

Mom, I don't want to talk to you about

my addiction to sex.

It's odd.

It's only odd if you think it's odd.

Shh!

I need a change.

You're getting older, honey.

I'd rather be dead than old.

- Where's the acetone?

- Shh, stop it!

Someone is being rude here, honey.

I'm very sorry.

All right, Ad... Shh!

What you need to do is to

meet a nice, unattractive girl.

Someone with a killer personality?

Yeah, exactly.

- Acetone.

- Shh. Shut up!

I'm sorry, honey.

OK, listen.

Remember.

Nice.

Not attractive.

You can even go plump.

I can handle it.

You're here early.

Hey, Charlie, you got to do me a favor.

I'd love nothing more.

I can't have them in my apartment anymore.

I got more in the cab downstairs.

No offense, but I don't want a bunch

of random vagina chilling in my apartment.

This is art, Charlie.

I am not a storage facility.

Charlie...

I've got this problem.

We all have problems.

No, really.

I think I'm a sex addict.

And I think that's transferring

to a love addict.

Have you been talking to Mom?

It's just now whenever I, um...

Yes.

I say, I love you.

It's like love Tourettes or something.

Wow.

You got to help me get away

from all this vagina, Charlie.

You have been talking to Mom!

Just a little, OK?

All the masterful Picasso's

in the world are gone.

And I get my brother's

acrylic vagina paintings.

Please.

Oh, all right.

Hey, who's in there?
