INT. DORM ROOM – DAY

A girl, ELLE, and guy, GREG, sit on a bed. They're obviously college students.

Greg: Nice dorm room Elle.

Elle: Thanks Greg. See anything else you like?

Elle gives Greg a look - “please come and ravage me.”

Greg: Oh, I sure do.

Greg and Elle start making out. Elle starts to unbuckle Greg’s belt, but GREG becomes distracted by a picture on the wall.

Greg: You like horses a lot, huh?

Elle: Yeah. Most girls go through their horse phase, but I never got out of mine. There’s just something about them. Such a powerful animal. Especially the Black Stallion.

Greg: Oh? Is that one there in the photo?

Elle: Yeah, they’re my favorite to ride. Extremely large, but very comfy.

GREG looks at the picture of the Black Stallion. He tilts his head to the side observing the horse’s maleness.

Greg: I’d say large is accurate.

Elle: So enough talk about horses. Where were we...

They start to make out again. Elle makes a little more progress with Greg’s pants. He’s distracted again.

Greg: I didn’t know you were an artist?

Elle: Well I’m not really. I just sort of do it for fun. I’m not that good or anything.

GREG studies the wall.

Greg: I see your favorite subject is the Cucumber.

Elle: Yeah, I kind of became obsessed with the cucumber. I skipped apples, pears, grapes, went straight to the cucumber.

Greg: I see.

Elle: That one there is my favorite. Even though it was kind of small...only about 8 inches.

Greg: That’s small?

Elle: Oh yeah, some cucumbers can grow up to over 1 foot long and weight around twenty five pounds.

Greg: (scared) Oh...really? I-I didn’t know that.

Elle: But enough about big cucumbers...

Elle goes for Greg’s zipper, but Greg fights her hands away. He sees something else.

Greg: Good Lord! Th-that’s quite a sculpture there?

Elle: Which one?

Greg: Th-the naked man...

Elle: Oh, yeah. That was a lot of fun to make. I like abstract stuff.

Greg: B-but...don’t you think a NASA rocket is a little extreme for the...I mean it’s...

Elle: You’d think so (chuckles) but that was inspired by a live model.

Greg: (mesmerized) Oh my God...

Elle: Yep. It was pretty weird staring at a naked guy with a bunch of people though.

Greg: I can imagine.

Elle: Yeah, it also didn’t help that the model was my ex-boyfriend.

Greg: Alrighty! Look at the time.

The telephone rings.

Elle: Ugh! Let me get that, but I’ll be right with you in a minute.

Elle slides her hand up Greg’s thigh. He jumps up. She picks up the phone.

Elle: (on the phone) Hey. Really? Wow, that is big. Oh, I don’t know yet. I’m crossing my fingers though.

Greg fiddles with the nude man sculpture. He measures the rocket with his fingers.

Greg: I think I’m gonna leave now.

Elle: (on the phone) I gotta go. Call you later to give you a full report.

Elle hangs up the phone.

Greg: I’ll see you later Elle.

Elle: Don’t go. We were just getting started.

KNOCK! KNOCK! Somebody’s at the door. Elle sighs.

Elle: Sorry about all these interruptions. Come in!

Girl (DRATCH) walks into the room.

Girl: I’m here for the “Giant Penises Matter” meeting.

Elle: Oh, you didn’t get my email? It’s been postponed till next week.

Greg is rushing out the door.

Elle: Hey, where are you going?

Greg: Uh...I really gotta finish building my sock drawer...

Elle: Wait!

She grabs Greg before he leaves.

Elle: I’m sorry Greg. All of this... it’s all just an act. It’s not really me. I...I don’t even like large...well you know.

Greg: Oh, you don’t? Then why do you celebrate the large penis by holding meetings in your dorm room?!

Elle: You don’t know what it’s like... being the only girl who prefers a smaller...well you know.

Greg pauses and ponders her words.

Greg: Really?

Elle: Yes. The peer pressure is overwhelming.

Greg: I had no idea.

Elle walks over and sits on the bed.

Elle: Now why don’t you come back over here?

Greg sits next to her.

Greg: Can we turn off the lights?

Elle turns off the lights. It’s pitch-black. We hear rustling and a zipper.

Elle: Okay, well small’s one thing, but microscopic is another.

Greg makes pathetic whimper noise.

The End
