Going somewhere, my beauty?

China? Tony? Sarah?

Where are you guys?

Marquis de Sade said that sex without fear

and pain is like food without taste.

We've been doing our homework.

I've always wondered why someone

would believe in something like that.

Guilt. Society. Good and evil.

I really don't know.

I'm gonna go look for the other two.

Okay?

Okay?

Where the hell are they?

Somewhere around?

They're not anywhere. I looked

everywhere. I checked.

I want out of here Sarah.

I'm serious.

Getting scared?

Don't worry. They've probably

just gone home.

What? Tony and China?

Together?

Oh. Jealousy wearing its ugly head.

I'm not kidding. I want to get

out of here now. Okay?

I've hoped you have enjoyed your visit.

Ah. Yes. Thank you, it was

quite enjoyable.

Your two friends left earlier.

Uh huh.

They seemed, loving by much.

Tony and China?

Well!

Goodnight!

What is it with this girl?

One day it's me, the next day

it's Charles Atlas., and now

Tony. What does she want?

Then why do you still like her?

Like her. I don't know

if I ever liked her.

It's just you want what

you can't get

I know what you mean.

- Hello?

Hello, Mrs. Webster?

Uh huh.

Is China there?

No. Johnathan.

No?

She went to a waxwork party.

A party at theh waxwork, huh?

Can I give her a message?

You don't happen to have the

address, do ya?

Guys. China. where are you?

Ah sh*t.

My god.

Good evening.

I own this waxworks.

Look. I'm sorry. You know I.

I, I didn't meant to...

I was just following a friend here

for some laughs, you know.

I'll be leaving.

Well that's alright. What's the point

of having all these beautiful works

of art if you can't appreciate them?

This for instance.

In't the figure wonderful?

Is it the actual mask?

As worn by the phantom.

In the movie the "Curse of the Opera".

They made a movie about

the Phantom of the Opera?

Would you like a close look?

Really?

Step in please.

They'll make a movie about

anything nowadays.

I would invite you in, but it's late

That's okay.

No Mark.

Why not?

I don't know.

I really like you and think

you're very attractive.

Come on.

No. I am serious.

It's... it's just. I don't know. I...

I'm looking for something else.

Hey.

It's okay. It's alright.

Now go get some sleep.

Come on. Scram. Get out of here.

Thank You.
