Hey sweetheart.

Hey baby!

Yeah?

Hey, hold on for a sec.

Beautiful girl, what are you

doing out here all alone?

Where you going?

Need a ride?

Excuse me?

Yeah?

We're

doing a documentary.

Wonder if you have

a second to chat.

I don't know,

I'm like on my way

to work right now.

We

were just wondering

if we could ask you a

couple of questions.

What kind of question's that?

If I give you,

you know, something like that

maybe you come in

here and answer

the questions for us?

Ah, that's a bit weird.

What

if I offered you

Little bit of cash?

A little bit of cash?

All right.

Hey,

you like that?

Oh, just take it.

All right, thank you so

much for helping us out.

I bet you don't have any

trouble at the clubs, do you?

We don't have much trouble.

You

seem like a fun girl.

You like to party?

You know, you have

a lot of layers on.

It's cold outside.

So, what

are you up to today?

I'm walking home from school.

Walking

home from school,

very nice.

School girl.

Hah, that's always hot.

- When was the last

time you had sex?

Well, that's why we broke up.

It's been a while.

Now what

you got under that hoodie?

Why don't you take that off?

It's hot in here.

It was a fishing boat.

He

had a fishing boat?

Yeah.

Let's see a little bit more skin.

So can you take your shirt off?

Question one.

Question one?

- Depends, what kind

of cash do you have?

Oh, okay.

Look at you, little

business lady.

Ooh oh oh!

You see that oh?

She wants it right away.

What do I gotta do for this?

I want you to

look at the camera and say

"Hi, daddy".

Hi, daddy.

All right

baby, see you later!

Yeah, that's right, b*tch!

We got your money!

So degrading.

Ugh,

you're telling me!

- How am I supposed to

come back from North Korea

and do a piece like this?

You said you wanted a break

from the horrors

of dictatorship,

and I believe the term you

used was "fluff piece".

- Well, this is a little on

the nose, don't you think?

Boss thought it was funny.

Not funny at all.

So, what?

You're not interested

or you think

the wife will give you sh*t?

Both.

- Come on, Mark, my spidey

senses are tingling here.

I think we have

some actual angles.

These guys have started

their own little smut empire.

Yeah, but who cares?

What, you don't watch porn?

Nope.

Come on!

Not like this!

I don't know.

Don't puss out on me.

- I just can't believe there's

a market for this garbage.

- These guys offer

something different.

They pick up random

girls and coax them

into having sex.

Well, that's bullshit.

Exactly!

First we prove that these

girls are total plants,

then we springboard into

a serious psychoanalytical

and social commentary

piece on internet porn.

You're hilarious.

Why do you have such a hard

on for these guys, dude?

- Because these guys

objectify women, dude.

Aren't they paying us?

F*** 'em.

They want exposure.

They didn't say what kind.

I've seen stuff that's

worse than this,

and I know you have too.

At least no one's dying here.

Yeah. At least no one's dying.

Yeah, you gotta have off.

Yeah, I mean, with this

weather, are you kidding me?

Ugh, it's the wife.

Hold on a sec.

Hey, babe, how you feeling?

Ah, no.

There's some crazy weather

coming into Seattle

so they rerouted us to Portland,

and we were having a hard

time getting a flight,

but my co-producer

extraordinaire got us

the best pilot on the west coast

and he's gonna fly

us in right now.

I'll be back in like 48 hours.

I know, I know.

Look, it's an easy one, okay?

I love you too.

Okay, take care of

that bun in the oven.

I can't believe

we're meeting these guys

on a street corner.

You tell the wife?

Ah, not yet.

P*ssy.

Excuse me.

You know what's crazy

is I have no idea what

to expect right now.

Oh! That's camera.

What up, beautiful people?

You the guy from Xice Magazine?

Yeah, I'm Mark.

What's with the last-minute

location change?

I thought we were doing this

interview at your office.

- Yeah, I just thought it'd

be better for the story,

get to know me a

little bit better,

see me in my element, a

little bit of atmosphere.

Who is this?

This is Sue.

- Hi, Susan Chen,

Mark's videographer.

Videographer?

Yeah.

- I thought you

worked for a magazine.

Yeah, we shoot everything

for the online magazine,

and then that saves me

having to take notes.

- Ah, you're not

gonna like this,

but that's a no-go.

It's only our cameras

allowed in the van,

I mean, unless little Suzie

Chu here wants to get naked

and play around with Johnny-boy.

Suzie what?!

- Um, look, we worked this out

with your people weeks ago.

- What can I say, the

rules are the rules.

Are we gonna have a

problemo, or what?

Ah, I dunno.

Let me just have a

chat with my partner.

Okay?

Sure.

Love watching you leave,

Suzie Choo-choo-choose me.

Oh, that's a good one.

Ugh.

I want to punch that

guy in the face.

I can't believe they

get girls into that van.

I know.

- Ugh, now they've

got the camera on us.

That guy's an a**hole.

- Well, that's exactly how

I'm gonna make him look.

You're gonna stay?

I'm here.

Oh, sh*t.

Mark smells a story.

All right, well,

I still get paid?

Of course.

Okay, have fun.

I'm sure it's gonna be

a tough day for you.

Yeah, yeah, f*** off.

I'll see you at the office.

See ya!

So, gentlemen.

So, what's the plan?

- Well, we're

gonna make a movie.

You ready?

Really?

It's a little early

for porn, isn't it?

Yeah, right.

Actually in our industry,

the early worm catches the

bird, if you get my drift.

Very clever.

All right. Hop in.

Back here?

Yeah.

- So, this is where

the magic happens?

Yeah, watch out for stains.

All right, introductions.

This here is my boy John.

I got him doing

double duty today.

He's going to be

driving and f***ing,

'cause you're an extra

body, and an artist

needs his space to work.

'Sup, man?

'Sup, man.

So, you really do this at 10 AM?

God damn right.

- All right, Johnny-boy,

start the engine.

These hoes ain't

gonna come to us.

All right.

Woo! Yeah

baby, let's do it!

- So, gentlemen, how

does this usually work?

We just drive around

until we find a cute girl

who wants to have sex

in the back of a van

at 10 in the morning?

Well, yeah, pretty much,

and I'm ready to

get my dick wet.

- I'd rather you

not do that, man.

- Oh, what, you

don't like it either?

What's the story behind that?

- Well, the story is I'm

interviewing you, so.

- Lighten up, buddy,

it's just a camera.

You want and interview or not?

- I think you need me

more than I need you.

- I didn't know this

was a pissing contest.

You're making it one.

Really?

Well, how far did you fly

to be here with us, Mark?

- I've flown a lot

further than this, Steve.

I though it

wasn't a pissing contest.

Look.

This interview can

go two ways, right?

Either you give me full

access, we have some fun,

I write a nice article, and

your company gets more exposure,

or...
