TIFFANY: Hello?

NEIL: What’s happening?

TIFFANY: I’m dead. That joker last night belongs in the zoo.

NEIL: Yeah, well, his money’s as green as anybody else’s. Guess who I’ve got on the phone?

TIFFANY: I’m too tired for guessing games, Neil.

NEIL: Freddie.

TJFFANY: Freaky Freddie?

NEIL: Freaky Freddie.

TIFFANY: Don’t tell me. What’s on his mind?

NEIL: Now what the hell you think’s on his mind?

TIFFANY: Oh not now. I’m just not ready for him. I haven’t even had a bath.

NEIL: Hey, you know the score. When he’s ready, he’s ready, and right now he’s ready.

TIFFANY: I’ve got to get my head on straight. Tell him have him call back in twenty minutes.

NEIL: Now! Twenty minutes, he’ll beat off and save the money.

TIFFANY: Christ, Neil -

NEIL: I said it’s now, baby. Now straighten your head up and let’s get it on.

TIFFANY: (Groans) Okay, five minutes, stall him for live.

NEIL: I’ll give you three.

Click.

FREDDIE: Okay.

TIFFANY: Freddie, guess who I’ve got here with me?

FREDDIE: (Excited) I d-d-don’t know. I g-g-give up.

TIFFANY: My photographer friend.

FREDDIE: Y-y-you mean the one w-w-with

TIFFANY: The redhead, Freddie, with the big tits.

FREDDIE: Oh y-y-yeah.

TIFFANY: She’s shooting for Penthouse this time.

FREDDIE: P-P-Penthouse?

TIFFANY: She looks really wild today. She’s wearing a silver, uh, lame jumpsuit.

FREDDIE: W-w-with z-z-zippers?

TIFFANY: All the way down the front. Why don’t you just relax Freddie? Lay back and relax and let it happen, baby. You have some music on?

FREDDIE: B-B-Berlioz.

TIFFANY: Perfect.

FREDDIE: Are the z-z-zippers p-p-pulled down?

TIFFANY: Give me time, honey.

The zipper goes all the way down the front. And...
