Women In Trouble Page #3
and l just wouldn't-
l wouldn't have the faintest.
- l'm flattered, but l'm not.
- Well, look, look, look.
Sit, sit, sit, sit, sit.
l want to say something.
Now, let me tell you something.
- l would very much like
to carry on floating with you
after we land.
And l would like for you
to come along to my hotel
and maybe drop some ecstasy
and just be.
- ls that right?
- Yeah, l'm just so sick
of this army
of blank-eyed zombies
all around me.
Do you know?
And l feel that perhaps
you are as well, am l right?
Well, you know what
l'm talking about, right?
l mean, they're out to steal
our air, our soul, our music.
And they will stop at nothing.
See, the thing is,
they have no substance.
They're made of dust
and numbers.
Their hearts are nothing
but cheap little calculators
that just keep pumping out
receipts.
Do you know what l'm saying?
So what do you say?
- Uh...
uh, l...
l...
l don't know.
l have to get back to work.
- What?
Are you blushing?
That's f***ing sexy.
Ah.
- And how is Prince Charming
doing?
- l'm pretty sure
he's on something.
- Pretty sure?
The band left him behind.
The manager's escorting him
because they don't trust
he'll get to his show
on his own.
- lt says all that
in your paperback?
- l looked it up online
during takeoff.
- l think he's very nice.
- Every rattlesnake
has its charms.
- Am l detecting just a whiff
of jealousy here?
Could it be because rock god
Nick Chapel
is paying more attention to me
than he is to you?
l'm just looking out
for my girl...
and her fianc.
- Oh, that is low.
Even for you.
- Low?
Who was sticking her ass
in the drummer boy's face
pretending the movie screen
was stuck?
- And who'd l learn that from?
- Oh, when l do it,
it's a masterpiece of subtlety.
No.
This is you.
- That's kind of hot,
admit it.
But l have a little more junk
in my trunk.
- Even a little more
than you'd like these days...
- Ah.
- And that's why you're being
all Mother Superior.
- Oh, you're such a whore.
- Besides...
even if something happened,
and that's a mighty big if,
Benjamin would never find out.
And even if he did,
he might understand.
- Right.
- Couples give each other
free passes
for certain celebrities.
- And you guys do that?
- No.
But Nick Chapel would be
on the list.
- So ethically and morally,
you're all set.
l mean, it would almost be
irresponsible of you
not to f*** him.
- The guy wrote
Welcomed by a Kiss.
How many drummers wrote
their band's best song?
- Don Henley, Phil Collins,
Gil Moore.
- Who the hell is Gil Moore?
- He split songwriting duties
with Rik Emmett in Triumph.
- Who the hell is Triumph?
- Who the hell is Tri-
Fight the Good Fight,
When the Lights go Down.
Magic Power.
l'm young, l'm wild,
and l'm free
l got the magic power
of the-
- Uh, pardon me, ladies.
l just need to use the lavatory.
- Gosh.
- Nice.
What do you think?
- l think if you're asking me
what l think,
you've already made up
your mind.
- Does it make me a bad person?
- Who am l to judge?
- You done this before?
- Mm-mm. Never.
- Are you sure?
- l'm sure, are you?
- No, never.
- Oh, look,
you're blushing again.
- Once before.
- What, with a passenger?
- Oh, God, no.
Pilot.
- While he was flying the plane?
There was a copilot too.
- What, you did both?
- l mean the copilot
was flying the plane
while l was with the pilot.
- All right, look.
Full disclosure here?
- Yeah.
- lt's my second time.
- Yeah?
- Yeah, we're flying
commercial here.
l mean, we're not counting
private, are we?
- You're the one counting.
- Look.
l feel the need to tell you
that l've recently been dating
a porn star, okay?
Her name is Elektra Luxx.
- Oh, you-you don't need
to tell me that.
- No? You may have seen
the sex video that got leaked.
- Um...
- Well, it's a delicate matter
because some women,
they-they get intimidated
because they're trying
to measure up, you know?
- Yeah.
- No, l need for you to know
that with you...
it's not the sex l'm after.
Not that l was into Elektra
for that exclusively either,
you understand?
- Mm-hmm.
But with you, you see,
l'm turned on by talent,
by people who are the best
at what they do.
And l look at you, and l say,
"Oh, she's the best."
And l can tell
in the blink of an eye.
But with her,
look, Elektra, she's-
As much as l applaud the fact
she can pin both ankles
behind her ears
while she orgasms,
it's just always felt like
emotional quicksand, you know?
But with you...
l can feel your organic essence,
you know, your animal core.
l mean, that's what your name
means, right, Cora?
lt's like the core,
the center.
The heart of the orchard.
- That's right.
ding!
- Sorry, folks, we caught
a sliver of that storm
l mentioned earlier.
lt should go back
to smooth sailing
in just a moment or so.
So if you could kindly return
to your seat
and fasten your seat belt.
- Oh!
- Cora?
Guys.
- Oh, my God, Maggie.
- What?
- l think he's dead.
- He was giving me oral,
and then he bumped his head,
and it sounded
like something broke,
and l can't wake him.
ls he not breathing?
- l can't tell.
But l can tell you
where all the blood went.
- Oh, Maggie,
you got to help me.
l am so f***ed.
- Okay.
l'm gonna go see if there's
a doctor on the plane.
Put his clothes back on
and pull yourself together.
- How am l gonna explain this?
- Listen to me carefully.
He was in the lavatory.
The captain made
his announcement.
We knocked on the door.
He didn't respond, so we were
forced to open the door.
He collapsed on his own,
possibly a drug overdose.
- With a raging hard-on?
- Try to see
if you can bring it down.
- What?
How?
Maggie.
Sh*t.
Oh.
Down, boy.
Down.
What a waste.
- ls anybody out there?
Can anybody hear us?
We're trapped in the elevator!
Anyone!
Can anyone hear us?
- Someone turned it off.
Maybe the fire department's
finally here.
- Obviously you haven't been
watching the news today.
- l don't watch much TV.
- Well, you couldn't have missed
it in the papers then.
- Listen, lady.
Don't take that tone with me.
- Don't call me lady.
- What's your name?
- None of your business.
- What is your problem?
- My problem is
that we are on day three
of a massive heat wave
with forest fires everywhere
and l really don't think they're
gonna be able to spare anyone
to help a couple of idiots
who are trapped in an elevator.
And if you had read the paper,
you would know that.
- Wow, fit all that
in the paper, huh?
- Well, you got to read
between the lines.
Can anyone hear me?
- Will you stop
just for five minutes.
Please.
- Well, what do you suggest?
Just wait here and die
of smoke inhalation?
We have been here for an hour.
There is no smoke
and no fire.
We are trapped in the elevator,
plain and simple.
- You don't know that.
The first five floors
of this building
could be on fire.
