    GIRL_1: Kinda hot in here.

    GIRL_2: Yeah, lets get naked.

    ....better minds than me can continue.

    They touch each other for a few minutes, quickly realising that the idea of breaking a perceived sexual taboo like experimental homosexuality is more of a turn on than the act itself.

    They both stop without finishing and awkwardly get back to their seats, never again making eye contact.

    They arrive at their destination and carry on living their lives.

    Their moments alone are awkward and thick with embarrassed tension.

    Their friendship is irreparably broken, they soon lose contact with each other.

    They tell their husbands and fellow housewives years later that they experimented with lesbianism in their youth to seem interesting and edgy.

    They neglect to say that they really thought it was weird and icky.

    They'd rather just kind of forget about it, to be honest.

    I can imagine the meeting.

    Exec: Ok, excellent resume. 4 year film studies, one year post grad, four internships. Very good. Ok, so let's have the pitch.


    I know arts qualifications are laughed at, but i would have hoped an industry specific qualification would be more relevant.

    but no.

    twas a case of putting words into a hat and pulling them out for this. as above said, thankfully it was car and not cup....

    Exec: Hmmm. You're off the drama team. I'm putting you on the documentary team, or possibility the reality tv crew...

    The best stuff never made mainstream TV. Especially the cup stuff.
