The Object of My Affection Page #5

good-looking, intelligent guys like Joley.

- And he has great taste.

- Mm.

Well, he doesn't have such great taste,

otherwise he'd still be with you.

Thank you.

- We should go dancing.

- What?

The community centre on Friday nights.

I'm signing us up.

You must think of every dance

as a three-minute love affair.

Boy meets girl, they fall in love with

the music and the stars and the orchestra,

and then they must part.

I have no idea what I'm doing.

I can't dance.

I can't even dahnce.

Just smile.

On the balls of your feet.

You're a butterfly.

Does that mean left or right?

Head up, young people, please.

Head up. Up, up.

Head up, young person. Head up.

Kennedy and I have decided to fix you up.

After all, what are brothers for?

- I'm healing.

- You're avoiding.

Whenever I call, you're at home

or doing mambo with your landlady.

You've got to get back out there again.

Don't you think so, sweetie?

Absolutely. Honey, I've got to get back.

Nice meeting you.

Yeah, you too.

- So, man, thumbs up, thumbs down?

- She seems nice.

- I'm gonna fix you up.

- I don't wanna be fixed up.

- I have a very nice boyfriend.

- He's a Bolshevik.

- It's not going anywhere.

- Why does it have to go anywhere?

- Because you have to take care of yourself.

- I am taking care of myself.

I just don't need the things that you do.

- You've got to meet this guy.

- What guy?

He's an ear, nose and throat man.

He was just on the cover

of New York magazine.

George, you have to start

taking care of yourself.

- I'm taking care of myself.

- Listen. He's an ear, nose and throat man.

But there's nothing wrong with me.

I don't even have a cold.

Yeah... Look...

- I have nothing in common with this guy.

- Just have a cup of coffee with him.

I promise you, this is quality goods.

Uh...

- George Hanson?

- Yeah.

Oh, I'm Jonathan Goldstein.

You're adorable. I mean,

your brother's cute, but you're irresistible.

Did anybody ever tell you

you look like a peach?

No.

- So you're an ear, nose and throat man?

- That's my professional life.

I have other interests

that go below the upper torso.

That's...

So I heard you were on the cover

of New York magazine?

Ugh! I got 3,000 new patients

and 6,000 marriage proposals.

And not a single real date.

- Want another drink?

- Yeah.

- Think he's all right?

- Who?

George. He hasn't been on a date in a while.

People can be really creepy.

- Put your zip code right there.

- He's dating a famous doctor.

Seora, firme aqu.

What do we do if he brings him home?

We'll be happy in our room

and they'll be busy in their room.

- Sounds very active.

- Mr Shapiro, you're all done.

Can I touch your nose? It's like a tulip.
