Taboo Page #2

Who would be so juvenile?

Not it.

-l hated that game.

-There you go, Piper. Revenge.

Now, that's a good motive.

No, it's probably someone

who enjoyed the game...

...and now they want

to play round two.

l liked it. l didn't do this.

Well, l guess whoever isn't either

a prostitute, a rapist...

...a gay, an infidel or a hypocrite...

...is, you know, the likely candidate.

Right?

Can l, please?

l'm gonna get some more wine.

Hey, do you guys want red or white?

-A**hole. What are you doing?

-A**hole?

Elizabeth, that's not a very nice word

for you to use.

l wanted to ask you...

...why the f*** did you send

that package?

What makes you think l did that?

lt's because you think you're so much

better than the rest of us, don't you?

Elizabeth, we went out for, what,

two years, right?

And we slept together.... Never.

Not once.

You know you just think you're as pure

as the Virgin Mary, don't you?

That's not true.

l was wondering if you and Christian

were playing hide the sausage.

Wrong again. l'm waiting

till l get married and you know that.

-l'm going to scream.

-Yeah, l know, you said that.

But you know what? l think that

probably would be the best idea.

Because, l mean, after all,

l am the ''rapist.''

Help!

-Try it again. Do it again.

-Christian!

Listen, Elizabeth, there's two

reasons why that's stupid.

One, it hurts my ears

when you scream that loud...

...and two, these walls, Elizabeth,

they're soundproof.

So no one can hear anything

that you're saying.

Oh, by the way, do you know

what ''statutory rape'' is?

Last year, after we left this house,

l got caught with an underage girl.

She was 1 4 going on, like, 24.

lt just seemed fine. She was a hell

of a lot more mature than l was.

We only had sex once.

And, really, it wasn't even that good.

-Why are you telling me?

-Because the girl blackmailed me.

One week later l received a videotape

in the mail...

...of us screwing at her apartment.

Or, actually,

her parents' apartment.

There was also an address to a P.O. box

for me to send my monthly check.

-l'm sorry.

-You're sorry?

l'm sorry no one ever told me

l had such a hairy ass.

Christian?

-No vino?

-Where's Christian?

Don't worry about that.

l decided to make margaritas.

-Where is everybody?

-Drinking, smoking and f***ing, l hope.

Why do you always have to be so crass?

My manner isn't pleasing.

Do you want me to change it? l will.

l can be just as prim

and proper as you.

l'll feel guilty for anything bad

and resent anyone having a good time.

lt's called growing up, right?

Have you seen Christian?

l was telling Elizabeth how we're happy

we got the group together. You okay?

You b*tches are killing me.

Margaritas in the wintertime?

What's wrong with you people?

What? l like them.

Piper, a margarita is a summer drink.

This is totally inappropriate.

Tropical drink.

-Mexico is fun. l love parasailing.

-Have any of you seen Christian?

-No.

-No.

-What's wrong?

-She doesn't like margaritas.

No, it's Adam. He attacked me

down in the wine cellar.

-What did--? He touched you?

-No, he insulted and threatened me.

Did he insult you or attack you?

There's a big difference.

Unless, of course,

he attacks your character.

Elizabeth. What did he do?

Adam?

Hello?

-Nobody's down here. This is stupid.

-This is stupid.

l never wanted to have this

reunion weekend in the first place.

This house is for entertaining.

Tomorrow night, it's just

gonna be me and you.

We'll have a nice big steak

and a bottle of Lafitte Rothschild.

Our favorite.

Oh, my God.

Jesus.

-ls he dead?

-You should know! Jesus!

What are you talking about?

When you said he attacked you,

Elizabeth...

...l guess you were telling the truth,

only you had it backwards.

Except for the notecard and the fact

that he has a hole in his stomach.

Okay. Take this.

-Who goes first?

-Question:

''Would you have sex with a minor?''

Answer:
''Yes.''

We begin our slide

into the moral abyss.

Oh, naughty, naughty.

Sh*t, l had sex before l was 1 4.

l don't see what the big deal is.

All right. What are you gonna do?

What am l gonna do?

What are we gonna do?

l did not do this. l swear.

-Who did?

-l don't know.

Did you have something to do

with those cards? Tell me.

No! lt doesn't--

Why does that matter?

Adam's dead.

Somebody in this house killed him.

And the only one that wasn't

in the bar was you.

All right. Just, don't worry, okay?

Don't worry? Somebody in this house

is a murderer. And we're stuck here.

Listen to me.

We're gonna go upstairs and you're

gonna pretend like nothing is wrong.

-How am l supposed to do that?

-However you can.

Obviously, Adam did something

to deserve this.

Unless there's something

you're not telling me...

...l cannot think of a reason why

someone would want to do this to us.

-But what about the others?

-What about them?

All right, just stay close to me.

All right, as soon as this storm

breaks, we are leaving. Okay?

Here. Wipe your hands.

Okay, Benji. Why don't you show me

how you hold yours?

Like this.

That's good. You can show me

on the table now.

Did you find your rapist?

-What?

-Didn't you say Adam tried to rape you?

No, l didn't. l said he attacked me.

l think he found some porno mags

in the basement.

-Party pooper.

-lt doesn't mean the fun is over.

-What do you propose?

-Naked Twister.

There are consequences

for acting foolish.

lmmortal-- lmm--

lmmorality doesn't pay.

Okay. Fine, Piper. Spin the bottle?

l really don't feel like

playing any games.

l didn't ask you.

Truth or dare, Benjamin?

-Truth.

-Okay, let me think.

l got it. Are you...

...or are you not...

...a raging, full-blown, butt-humper?

Excuse me?

F*ggot. Honey, she wants to know

if you are one.

l mean, l don't know...

...but do Republican senators

with openly gay children...

...ever get reelected?

l mean, not that anybody would

want to leak that information.

Me and Kate have been going out

for three years. Okay?

-That really isn't an answer.

-No, it's not.

-Silence equals death.

-''Silence equals death.''

You know what? F*** you.

-That's my man.

-You guys are disgusting.

Bye.

-Want to play, Christian?

-Sure.

-Sorry about that in the game room.

-l'm sure you are.

She looks very happy, huh?

''Virtue, honesty and justice.''

Christian's family motto.

Words to live by.

Yeah, yeah.

Or to die by. You know,

at least if the story's true.

Come on, Elizabeth. Don't pretend

you never heard the story.

lt was such a big scandal.

Christian's polo-playing father.

Vanished after the family found out

that he was romping a prostitute.

lt was a rumor.

The case never even went to trial.

You are so f***ing naive.

Hey, wake up. They probably

bought the f***ing judge.

My father's a politician. Believe me,

l know how the system works.

Supposedly, he banged that cheap whore

in this house and got her pregnant.

This isn't the time or place

to talk about this.
