on the phone.

Mom.

You're, like, invincible.

You're... 50 bytes.

No.

Hey, hey, hey, what's wrong?

Nothing.

I'm good.

Hey.

Hey, come here.

What's wrong?

JoJo won't talk to me.

It's okay.

By the dawn's early light

Pencil marks

And his shirt on my chair

Beware your symptoms

Dressed so nicely

Here we are

And now everyone

has a question

All the girls in the club

looking good

Let me see you

turn that ass around

Won't you just shake it?

Come on

Come on, shake it

They call me Joe Montana

of the N-Y-C

How much for a dance

in the booth?

I'll send someone over

to answer that question.

Well, why don't you answer it?

Table four, private show.

Okay.

Hey.

Looking nice.

Thank you.

All right.

Here you go.

Do you want singles?

No, that's a tip.

All the girls in the club

looking good

Let me see you

turn that ass around

Hey.

That guy just gave me

a really good tip.

On a good day,

a man will give away everything

just for a few hours of tease.

Hey, Dara, can you put this

in my bank for me?

- Yeah.

- You know what?

- What?

- You should dance.

You know,

you'd make more money.

I don't know.

I think I'd feel weird about it.

About being naked?

With your legs?

Can I get a glass of water?

Well, I did do pictures once.

Really?

Before I moved up here.

If you're okay

with taking pictures,

you should hook up with BOD.

They pay their girls

$800 a day.

$800 a day?

Just for pictures?

Well, it depends

on what you do, but...

Well, why haven't you done it?

I have a lot of cousins

that watch too much porn,

and they think

I'm a social worker.

Oh, nice.

That's really nice.

Yeah.

Hey, I think someone might

have brought party favors.

Come on. Let's go check it out.

Come on.

Come on. Let's go check it out.

Because it's time

after time

You step out of line

It's so noisy in here.

How can anyone talk in here?

No, thanks. I don't...

Okay.

I'm new at this...

Yo, Paco!

- Hi.

- Your turn.

Oh, well, actually,

I think my friend could use

a little attention.

I'm getting married tomorrow.

He is, so...

So I'm never gonna be

happy again.

It's his last night...

Last night of happiness.

Where am I?

Where did you take me, Francis?

Just enjoy it.

Hi.

Your turn.

Easy, cowboy Easy there.

- It's okay.

- All right, hey.

Just... all right. Stop that.

That's enough.

Just get your hands off of me.

Stop it.

- Hey, hey.

- I said get off of me.

All right, let's go. Let's go.

Come on, man.

- I got to go.

- I'm not done with you.

I know. I just...

I got to go. I'm sorry.

Hey, sorry about that.

You better go catch up

with your friend,

or you're not gonna have

anyone to play with.

Right.

There is nowhere like this

in Long Beach.

Of course there is.

You just have to know

where to look.

You don't have to look here.

That's true.

Here, if you stand still,

the thing will find you.

Yo, Paco.

Come on.

Oh, they're getting away.

Bye, boys.

Good night.

We could walk.

Hello!

Show some leg.

I'm corrupted.

I'm happy, man.

Careful.

Hey, did you have fun?

Sorry.

I didn't mean to wake you.

No, you didn't.

Okay, maybe you did.

Paco... is a lot of fun.

You know, someday you're

gonna meet the perfect person,

and they're gonna be wondering

where you've been hiding

all this time.

Why do you say that?

Because I believe it.

What if I find

the perfect person,

and she doesn't find me back?

What's your rate

for strap-on D.P.?

Okay, well...

Just email me your availability

for April, okay?

- Hi.

- Hi, you must be Cherry.

Yeah, hi. How are you?

Jake. We spoke on the phone.

Oh, yeah.

Your pictures are incredible.

- Oh, thank you.

- Yeah.

So the first question

that I always ask everyone,

and there's no right

or wrong answer, is,

why do you want to do porn,

and why do you want to do it

with BOD?

Okay, well, I just...

I like to try new things,

and it seems like it's a better

schedule than the clubs.

Those are good reasons.

Yeah, we can definitely give you

new things.

Good.

So you saw our website,

and you know generally

what it is that we do here.

Did any of it look fun?

Yeah, the f***ing machine site.

Looked really, like,

interesting.

What was interesting

about them?

It just looked exciting.

It looked like

a really intense experience.

F***ing machines

is more about performance.

Are you into performance?

I guess so.

Okay.

So a lot of what we do here

is fetish.

Fetish is not about sex.

It's about power play.

So would you feel comfortable

playing a top or bottom?

Well, I haven't really done

any of that before,

so I don't know.

Well, if you decided to,

then you would generally

start out as a bottom,

and that means you would be

the one being tied up,

and then you can be a top,

but everybody has

their own preferences, so...

Okay, well, that's something

I can think about.

Okay, I just have

a few more questions,

and I don't want to make you

feel uncomfortable.

It's just good to get

all this stuff out of the way.

Yeah.

So how do you feel about girls?

I like them.

Have you ever had sex

with a girl?

Oh, you move really fast.

We can take as long

as you'd like, so...

Okay.

Would you feel comfortable

with a girl touching your chest?

Yeah, sure.

But no guy-girl penetration.

Not on camera, I don't think.

What about transgender?

What about them?

Okay.

We have you down

for a solo masturbation scene

and a striptease.

Yeah.

And your rate is $500.

Yeah.

Okay, great.

Okay, so the first one

is just a consent form.

I just need you

to initial the boxes

saying that you know

what you're doing here

and consenting to what

we just talked about.

Okay.

The second form

is just your 2257,

and just make sure

you fill out your name

exactly as it appears

on your driver's license.

We've all heard that one

before.

Right, which is how

it starts with them, you know?

As you soon as you start

doing boy-girl,

that's when they start to have

a problem with it.

You got to decide for yourself

what you want to do.

Looks like someone's

getting paddled today.

Got that right.

Can you believe that dick-face

Robbie is still calling me?

Who else is he gonna call?

You know nobody's ever

rocked his world that hard.

He wants to own me.

I'm into Cynthia now.

Oh, who's Cynthia?

This totally hot chick

I met at Cock-Block.

She's kind of

a preacher's daughter.

Speak of the devil.

Are you nervous, sweetie?

I'm okay.

Okay, actually, I'm...

I'm a little bit nervous.

I've done this before, though.

Well, you have nothing

to worry about.

You're working

with Margaret today.

She's the best,

and everyone loves her.

Oh, good.

Okay, cool.

Who you worked for?

A company down south,

So-Cal Hotties.

- Vaughn.

- Yeah.

Vaughn is a douche bag.

He's always trying to f***

the new girls with their rates.

I hope you got paid.

Yeah, I got paid.

Well, this place

is much better.

You should do

a Girls Club shoot.
