Threesome Page #2

Synopsis: Eddy and Stuart share two-thirds of a dormitory suite. Due to bureaucratic error, a woman named Alex is added to their room. At first, relations among the three are tense. Soon, however, Alex falls for Eddy, and Stuart lusts after Alex. Eddy comes to realize not only that he's gay, but that he's attracted to Stuart. The three pledge not to act on any romantic (or lustful) feelings with each other, and become close friends . . . while bottling up a lot of sexual tension.

You know, one time my mom...

She actually metJ D Salinger.

- Really?

- She threw up on his front lawn.

Really?

Yeah, she was on vacation

in Maine with her best friend...

and they met these two sailors

who were in port for the night.

They got really drunk

and these sailors took them out.

Before long, Alex and I were

wrapped in conversation...

and Stuart was not.

Look, I wasn't trying to horn in

on your situation, okay?

I'm not interested in her anyway.

Whatever.

I don't want to talk about it.

Sorry.

Gimme your toothbrush.

- Why?

- Give me your toothbrush.

- I don't want to.

- Gimme the goddamn toothbrush!

I would not have spilled

my father's blood...

or listened to those

who called me my mother's wife.

And now I am God-shunned...

the daughter of a mother defiled...

and I have taken my turn

in my mother's bed.

If there is any tragedy

greater than all others...

it belongs to me.

Pretty awful, huh?

I just don't understand

why anybody would do...

a lesbian version of Oedipus Rex.

I thought it was good.

- You did?

- Yeah. I really liked it.

Stuart, you don't have to worry

about hurting my feelings.

I know it was a piece of crap.

I thought you were good.

I thought everybody was really good.

- I liked it.

- What'd you think?

The translation was bad.

Direction was nonexistent.

Somebody should call the acting police

on a couple of those actresses.

Costumes looked like

a bad night at Caesar's Palace.

Other than that,

I thought it was great.

You were wonderful.

You made the best out of your part.

I agree with all that.

I think you guys are being

too hard on it.

You're a business major. This is art.

The work is what's important here.

It's better to be honest

than to be nice, okay?

F*** me for being nice.

- Wait, Stuart.

- Just let him go.

It's better just the two of us.

A toast to bigger and better things.

A toast to bigger and better things.

Professionally or personally?

I was speaking professionally...

but as the big dude says, a man is happy

when he has both work and love.

The big dude?

Yeah, unfashionable

though he may be, Freud.

I love Freud,

unfashionable though he may be.

- I should go.

- No.

Come on. Just sit down for one second.

You mind if I change?

No.

I just really want everything

to be perfect for this moment.

Are we having a moment?

How about this?

That's perfect.

This?

Great.

They're both excellent choices.

I hate them.

It's kinda pointless.

Don't you think?

What is?

Putting on clothes.

When I just want to take 'em off.

Well, some people say it's pointless

to make your bed every morning...

just 'cause you're gonna

unmake it every night...
