-Hi, how are you?

Good.

Glo, right?

Yeah. That's right,

but don't wear it out.

Say, can I use your bathroom?

Yeah. It's right,

it's right over there.

-Hello?

-Derek? Is she there yet?

Yeah, she's in the bathroom.

But, hold on.

Glo, I'm sorry.

It's Vickie.

Yeah... Tell her

I'll be right there.

Vickie, she'll be

right there... Here.

Here she is. Okay.

-Hi.

-Why didn't you call?

I had to go. I'm fine.

I'll call you in an hour.

You know, it could

be more than an hour.

He says it could be

more than an hour.

Well, then have him pay you now

for two hours, and see how it goes.

Okay.

-Hi.

-Pay her now for two hours

and see how it goes.

And I'll call you back in two hours.

Okay. Sounds good.

Can I get you a glass of wine?

Sure. Yeah. You want

jasmine, citrus, or pear?

-What?

-Lotion? Foot rub?

No, no, no. I just

put my socks on.

Well, I can't rub your feet if you're

going to be wearing socks.

No, no. I thought

maybe we could go out.

-We're going out?

-Yeah, let's go to dinner.

-Wh... Are you serious?

-Yeah. Come on.

You mean, we're going to go

out and then we come back again?

Yeah, you know, it could be three

hours, it could be four hours.

Big spender.

Where do you want to

go? Are you hungry?

Yeah, I know a place.

Do you like indian?

-Okay.

-You don't like indian?

No, no, I love it. I

love it. Yeah, yeah.

-Not too spicy.

-No, mild.

That was not mild.

How about a carriage ride?

-I could use the air.

-Fun!

Derek...

How come you're such a nice guy?

-Me? I am?

-Yeah.

Yeah, you are. You're a

real nice guy, you know.

No other client ever

took me for a drink,

or for a meal or a

buggy ride, you know?

They just want to, you know,

"wham, bam", thank you, ma'am.

I guess, I'm the romantic type.

Yeah, you are.

You are.

You are a romantic guy.

What do you want to do?

I mean, besides this.

What do you want to do?

I want...

I want to act, you know.

Yeah, I want to be an actress.

But then, of course, my dad

thinks I'm on cloud nine

-with the whole acting thing.

-Why?

'Cause it's like I just do

this as a way to earn a living

while I wait until

my break, you know.

Also help my folks out a little.

Well, maybe there's a

better way to earn a living.

Well, you know, you date guys...

What do they want?

They want you in the sack.

So this way, guys I meet,

that's all they want, too,

but at least they're

gonna pay for it.

You know, you meet a guy and

they expect it for nothing.

So this way I figure

I'm ahead of the game.

But it doesn't really

make me feel good, really.

I think you're terrific.

You know, you are the most

detailed kind of lover!

-Detailed?

-Yeah.

Like... That was amazing.
