INT. JoEs APARTMENT, LivinG ROOM - DAY
Joe, an easy-going semi-intellectual, sits at a table reading.
In voice-over we hear a conversation with his friend, Lee.
[Note: I designed this to be shot without sync sound. The conversations could very well be intercut with the scene.]
JOE (V.O.)
So Tina came by the other day...
LEE (V.O.)
I though you guys were splits.
Tina enters, begins gathering various items.
JOE (V.O.)
Yeah. But she just wanted to pick up her stuff.
LEE (V.O.)
Forget her, man.
JOE (V.O.)
Well, the thing is, is after she picked up all her stuff she came and sat down next to me. I said, So this is it? She says, Youre gonna miss the sex.
LEE (V.O.)
She said that?
JOE (V.O.)
So I was like -- joking -- I was like, Too bad I cant just pay you for it. And then she laughed and said, How much?
Joe pulls out a TWENTY DOLLAR BILL and lays it on the table.
Tina looks at it.
Joe looks at it.
They look at each other.
LEE (V.O.)
You paid her to have sex with you!?
JOE (V.O.)
Best sex we ever had.
INT. JOES APARTMENT, COMMON ROOM - DAY
Same set-up, but this time narrated by Tinas conversation with her friend Alice.
TINA (V.O.)
So I want back over to Joes to get my stuff.
ALICE (V.O.)
Ugh. Joe.
Small details are different. Joe is not reading; he is eating Cheetos. Tina is dressed a little more conservatively; Joe, more sleazy.
TINA (V.O.)
Yeah, well, as Im leaving he says, You got everything? And I say yeah. And then he pulls out a twenty dollar bill and puts it on the table.
000200000E5F000006B2 E59,Joe does this.
TINA (V.O.) (CONTD)
I say, Whats that? He says, Thats yours if you have sex with me one last time.
ALICE (V.O.)
Ohmygod how pathetic.
TINA (V.O.)
So I figured hey, why not.
ALICE (V.O.)
Why not? Because thats like prostitution!
INT. JOES APARTMENT, BEDROOM - DAY
An erotic MONTAGE. As it progresses they seem to be having less and less fun.
CUT TO POST-COITUS
Tina and Joe in bed face-up. They would be smoking cigarettes now if either of them smoked.
LEE (V.O.)
How many times have you... paid her to have sex?
JOE (V.O.)
I guess Ive spent about four hundred dollars.
(pause)
Its not like it was, though.
Tina rolls out of bed and gets dressed. Joe watches.
LEE (V.O.)
What do you mean? You may have like the best set-up in the history of man. Youve dispensed with the pretending -- with the romantic this and that, the buying dinner, the flowers. Sex is a commodity, man. And youre the first guy to take that, man, and run with it.
JOE (V.O.)
Yeah, but... I dont know.
LEE (V.O.)
What?
JOE (V.O.)
I miss like going out and stuff. We never talk afterwards. She just takes the money and goes.
Tina does just that, grabbing a twenty off the dresser.
TINA (V.O.)
I dont even think of him as Joe anymore. Hes just like a machine with a lever that I pull and out comes a twenty.
INT. BATHROOM
Tina fixes herself up in the mirror.
ALICE (V.O.)
You should raise your prices.
TINA (V.O.)
I think Im going to stop. Youre right, its prostitution.
ALICE (V.O.)
Wait. I mean, I dont see it that way any more. If you can control a man with sex then, why not?
TINA (V.O.)
Its not... love.
She opens her purse to put away some lipstick. The purse is crammed with twenties.
ALICE (V.O.)
Sure it is. That money is his love. Twenty dollar love is better than no love.
INT. JOES APARTMENT, COMMON ROOM - DAY
Now the narrations overlap. A crescendo, if you will.
JOE (V.O.)
She came by for the Tuesday four oclock. I opened the door and we looked at each other --
TINA (V.O.)
And we both said in unison, I cant do this any more.
ALICE (V.O.)
Its a shame.
LEE (V.O.)
Fun while it lasted, eh?
JOE (V.O.)
So we stared at each other...
TINA (V.O.)
He leaned in to kiss me...
They kiss.
JOE (V.O.)
And then we went out.
LEE (V.O.)
Where?
ALICE (V.O.)
Where did you go?
EXT. ELEVATOR - DAY
In SLOW MOTION Joe and Tina step into the elevator.
In SLOW MOTION the doors close on them.
JOE (V.O.)
Out.
TinA (V.O.)
We went out.
FADE TO BLACK.
