The Double Page #6
Just take the test.
I'll babysit for an hour.
- Do you even know what we do here?
- What's to know?
What if we get caught?
Well, how will we get caught?
We have the same face.
You may now turn over your paper.
Look at the two screens
and identify the next
figure in the sequence.
All the boys in my school are
so childish, so immature.
No, nothing but a batch
of raging hormones.
It's like daddy wanted me to go
on a date with his friend's son.
Like just 'cause we're the
same age doesn't mean
- we have anything in common.
- Mm-hmm, no.
It's no substitute for a real spiritual
connection or... or finding your soul mate.
I don't know, I've always
felt that emotional maturity
is totally unrelated to material age.
I'm just interested in the real person.
- Do you drink coffee?
- No.
Would you like to try one?
- Finished already?
- Yes, sorry.
When do you think you'll
have the results?
For you, right away.
But you need to realize
that data entry
and collection and
computers and stuff,
it can be sensual. It
does have a romance.
It can be sexy. All these
lives that we're recording,
their hopes, their
dreams, their loves...
Each person out there,
apart yet connected.
people immortality.
Wow.
That's an amazing way
of looking at it.
These results are off
the charts, James.
I knew we hired the right
man, I just knew it.
Thank you, sir.
Where is the kid from that desk?
He's been here a while;
Just between you and me,
- he hasn't impressed.
- I'm sure there must be some explanation.
Sticking up for a co-worker even
though he has limited ability...
I like that. Very admirable.
- So?
- Where were you?
- How did I do?
- You aced it.
- Oh! I knew it.
- I told you to be back an hour ago.
the old man's an idiot.
We are gonna be running this place.
All right, so I will leave you to
finish up and get out of your hair.
Where is she? There she is!
Oh, you got me. You got me.
And it's a good thing I fixed my printer.
Just used a little elbow grease,
so I won't be needing
to come down as much.
When you rub them together
they usually sound like crickets,
- but... I've lost it.
- And I'm sorry
I missed you at the Colonel's
ball the other night.
- I think they've changed the cups.
- Well, back to work.
Hmm. Strange.
- Hey, that went great!
- I don't know.
Leave her wanting more. Did you use the
line about the elbow grease? That's erotic.
Okay, within a week you're
going to get hand on boob.
That is a promise. Now we stick
to the plan, okay? No contact.
Cold Turkey for a
few days. All right?
Yeah yeah, she's
definitely looking at you.
