"What Time Do You Get Off?"
In a scene from CHOKE, Victor Mancini (Sam Rockwell) slyly manages to turn a conversation with Dr. Paige Marshall (played by the luminescent Kelly Macdonald) about his mother's worsening condition -- to sex with the doctor. Because that's appropriate, right? :) Read the exchange below:
Victor: "What time do you get off?"
Dr. Marsall: "You don't have to do that."
Victor: "What."
Dr. Marsall: "Try to have sex with me."
Victor: "Oh, I really do."
Dr. Marsall: "Well, I suppose that's flattering, but I think we better not."
Victor: "Why."
Dr. Marsall: "Because, you're just sad. And lonely maybe. And you're realizing for the first time that your mother probably won't be getting better. And sleeping with me isn't going to change any of that, now is it?"
Victor: "Only one way to find out..."
Victor makes it seem so easy. Which got us thinking...
