Man.....Seth Meyers
Escort.....Uma Thurman
INT. Hotel Room - Evening
MAN (Meyers) is scrambling around room in blue robe w/ Motel 6 logo on his back. He pulls a bottle of wine out of his bag, which sets on a table, and puts it on the end table beside his bed.
Man: And that will go there. (a beat as he surveys the room) Wait a minute...that’s not right!
[He runs furiously to pick up the wine bottle. A knock on the door is heard.]
Man: (nervously) Oh god...that’s her! Why am I doing this?
Female Voice: (outside the door) Jimmy’s Escort Service...open up, baby!
Man: (yelling to her) Uh...hold on a sec, ok?
[He runs over, picks up a box of condoms on a night stand, puts the wine bottle where they sat, and throws the condoms in the night stand drawer. He then runs over to a mirror near the door.]
Man: (primping in front of the mirror) C’mon...you can do this! You need this!
[Man opens the door. An escort (Thurman) is there and is made up to look like a streetwalker.]
Escort: Hey darlin’...how you doin’?
Man: (very anxiously) Hey...
[He lets her in, shuts the door, and an uncomfortable pause sets in.]
Man: Uh, what’s your name?
Escort: My name’s Ginger. What’s yours?
Man: Gary.
Escort: Oh, Gary...that’s a sexy name! (makes eyes at him, removes coat)
Man: (childishly) Boy...you sure do look good, Ginger!
Escort: Why, that’s a very nice thing to say, sweetie! Are you ready for me to get undressed?
Man: (stunned by her bluntness) Oh, uh...sure!
Escort: Now why don’t you get out of that uncomfortable robe...and I’ll go get ready.
Man: (rips off robe) Ok!
[She goes to the bathroom, he quickly turns the lights down and hops into bed. She soon comes out in skimpier attire.]
Escort: Ok, Gary...are you ready?
Man: (from under the covers...only his face is seen) Uh, yes...
Escort: Good...’cause I’m gonna rock yo’ world!
Man: (in excitement) Oh, god...
[The escort turns out the lamp, creating total darkness as she hops into bed with him. They move around under the sheets for about five seconds.]
Man: (screaming loudly) Ahhhh! What the hell is that???
Escort: What is what?
Man: (moves hand under sheets) That!
Escort: Oh...that’s my penis, darlin’!
Man: Oh, my god!
[The man then shoots out of bed, turns on the lamp, and is noticeably angry and surprised.]
Man: (shouting) A penis???
Escort: Yeah. What did you think it was, sugar?
Man: Uh, well, I guess I knew that’s what it was...but I didn’t order a man!
Escort: Don’t call me a man...don’t typecast me!
Man: What?
Escort: I’m a hermaphrodite!
Man: (stupefied) What? What’s that?
Escort: That means I have both male and female genitalia!
Man: (grossed out) Ughhhh! Oh, god! (he starts dry-heaving violently as she gets out of bed)
Escort: (very huffy) I don’t see what the big deal is! You asked for one!
Man: No, I did not! I specifically told the person who answered the phone I wanted an Asian girl...dressed like a prostitute!
Escort: Well, I’m not Asian!
Man: I know...but I was willing to settle for whatever it is you are, except for the penis thing!
Escort: What’s wrong with my penis???
Man: Nothing, I...I guess. I just wanted a vagina only...I mean, a girl only, and...uh...
Escort: (interrupting) Well, I’m sorry! What do you want me to do?
Man: I want you outta here right now!
Escort: Oh, no...oh, hell no! We don’t get a lotta calls for hermaphrodites down at the office! I got kids to feed...I want my money!
Man: Kids? What kind of sick person would sleep with a thing like you?
Escort: For your information...hermaphrodites can’t have kids! Mine are adopted!
Man: (softening up a bit) Oh, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to...I didn’t mean that.
Escort: I don’t believe this! (starting to cry) I come up here, expecting fantastic sex and gas money for my Vespa, and all I get is the fact that I can’t bear children thrown in my face!
Man: Listen, I didn’t mean it like that! Seriously, I didn’t know!
Escort: (pulls tissue from a box on the night stand) Well, ok then...(sniffles a few more times)
Man: I’m really sorry, alright? What can I do to help?
Escort: Well, you could just pay me so I won’t miss this month’s TiVo payment...again.
Man: I’m sorry...I can’t pay for sex I didn’t have.
Escort: Ok, well how ‘bout we just have sex? I mean, since the surprise is out of the bag, it shouldn’t be a big problem...right?
Man: Oh, no...it’s still a big problem! I mean, I married with two children, and if it was to get around that I had sex with an escort...that would be bad enough. But if someone found out it was a dirty he-she I banged...I’d be screwed!
Escort: (angry but still saddened) Fine then...I’ll leave! (stands up and prepares to walk out)
Man: Wait!
[The escort turns around in anticipation.]
Man: You wanna keep the wine I bought?
Escort: Uh, sure...
Man: Here.. (grabs the bottle from the end table and hands it to her/him)
Escort: (looks at the label) This is a three dollar and ninety-nine cent bottle of Cisco, you ass! (hauls off and throws the bottle at him...he ducks and it crashes into the wall)
Man: Uh...(goes and gets the condoms out of the drawer) what about condoms? You could probably use them, couldn’t ya?
Escort: Bye! (angrily stamps out of the room and slams the door)
Man: (yelling, sympathetic) Did I...did I mention it was a beautiful penis, ma’am...sir...I mean...
[There is no response. He collects himself, sets the condoms down on the table, and begins picking up pieces of glass.]
Man: Whew! The guys down at the blood bank are never gonna believe this!
[He continues picking up pieces of glass as the screen fades to black.]
