May I help you?

I want to, uh, take a steam bath and...

That'll be 3.50.

I thought it was only two.

It's a weekend.

Friday.

It's always 3.50 on weekends.

Here's the key.

Thanks.

Hey, you forgot your towel and robe and slippers.

Oh, thanks.

Say is there a place around here

where I could get a cup of coffee to take with me?

Yeah, right over there.

On the right.

But you can't take any drinks up to your room.

Oh.

Well, thanks anyways.

Got any valuables you wanna check?

Anything over five bucks?

Why's that?

Well, you can't trust your own mother these days,

how are you gonna trust a recent acquaintance?

Oh, I see what you mean.

I guess I'll leave my ring.

Just put 'em in there.

And my wallet.

Very good.

He doesn't have enough muscles for me.

I'm looking for a nice stacked Greek man for tonight.

But you can go on in, Thumbelina.

I'm tipping on.

Ooh!

I guess he's got someone in there huh?

Nope, she's just laying there alone.

Is this your first time here, sweetie?

No, I've been here before.

Well, you know, you have to leave your door open

a bit wider if you wanna get a trick.

Oh, thanks for telling me.

Here, I'll fix it for you.

Now you get the trick.

- Come on! - Goodbye sweetie!

Bye.

Are you alone in there?

Yeah.

That's why my door is open.

Mind if I come in?

I guess so.

All right if I turn on the light?

Sure, why not?

Mind if I sit down?

Why should I mind?

This is my first time here at the baths.

Quite a lot of excitement going on out there.

Well, it's Friday night.

It's always busy on the weekend.

Well, I've never taken a bath before.

I mean, steam bath.

It's very refreshing, it's very healthy.

Cleanses you inside as well as out.

I think I've lost 10 pounds already.

Don't you find it refreshing?

Oh,

You sound as though you don't.

Don't what?

Find it refreshing.

It's just that I've been here so many times

I'm used to it.

It's just like bathing at home.

But it guess it is rather refreshing.

Hey, buddy-

Think about pulling your bathrobe down a bit,

it's beginning to hang out.

Oh, sure, I didn't even notice.

Okay, just remember.

Come here a lot?

Oh, sure.

At least four times a week.

This is my first time here.

You said that before.

Oh, I'm sorry.

I have a tendency to repeat myself when I get nervous.

Why are you so nervous?

Because this is my first time here.

I don't know what to do.

Well, here, have a cigarette.

Oh, no thank you.

I don't smoke.

I never did care for the taste of smoke.

I find it very unwholesome.

For me, that is.

But just never did care for the taste of it.

But you go ahead and smoke if you've got it,

I don't care if other people smoke.

Are you comfortable in that chair?

Oh, yes, thank you.

It looks so hard and un-soft like.

Oh, I am very.

But thank you for being so considerate.

Hey, Sam, they're working you hard tonight.

Oh, it's not too bad.

There's just a few trying on me.

Well, don't work too hard.

Yeah, take it easy.

Will you tell me something?

What are you supposed to do?

I don't understand what you mean.

Well, I mean that...

How are you supposed to get to know somebody?

I mean, I went to the shower room,

I went to the steam room,

and everyone was running around so much

they didn't even notice me.

Oh, it's nothing, you just go to your room

and you lie down in bed...

Look at those two sitting there

dishing like they're a couple of old maids.

This is no place to chat, girls.

You can go into Pan Pan's for that.

Well, what was I saying?

Oh, yeah, you uh...

You go to your room and you get into bed and...

You have to leave the door open, though.

That's very important, they'll think you're busy.

I didn't know it was that simple.

Oh, there's nothing to it, really.

Well, I hope I'm not taking up your time,

it's just that, if you'd rather...

No, no, stay.

I would be happy to let you.

Hey, speak low down there will you?

I can hear you screaming all down the hall!

We're going.

Would you...

Would you like some coffee?

There's a restaurant downstairs.

I can go right down and bring it up.

They don't allow you to bring anything up to the rooms.

Oh, I'll sneak it up somehow.

Okay?

Okay, I guess so.

I'll be right back.

Well, I see you've finished your little chat.

That's all some of them are good for around here anyway.

The way he looks, I wouldn't even wanna dish with him.

You've got beautiful skin.

May I touch it?

Please don't.

Why?

Well, my friend'll be right back.

He wouldn't like it.

Oh, honey, I didn't know you were hung up on him.

Well, I'll just tip on out.

See ya later.

Oh, hey, Miss Thing.

You're just tripping up and down the halls tonight.

Getting it, aren't you, girl?

This one's hung.

In which direction?

I'm sorry, I couldn't sneak any coffee up,

because they only serve in glass cups,

but I passed this pop machine in the hallway.

I hadn't noticed it before.

Halls are so narrow.

Which would you rather have, 7 Up or Coke?

Doesn't really matter.

Oh, okay, I'll put it behind my back

and you pick one.

All right, pick.

Left arm gets the 7 Up.

Thanks.

Hope you like it.

Nice the way it sparkles, isn't it?

I remember when I was young.

I used to hold the bottle right under my nose

and let the bubbles tickle me.

You know, I don't even know your name.

My name is Mr. Jaffee.

Well, mine is Thomas.

Thomas.

It's a beautiful name, Thomas.

Do you get the strange feeling

that someone's staring at us?

Staring at us?

But there's no one here.

There's no one under the bed.

I got the strangest feeling,

even when you were out of the room,

that someone was staring at us.

I just can sense that, when someone's looking at me.

I always could.

There's a hole here with an eye in it.

Oh.

- I'll fix that. - I knew it.

Here.

No peeking in here anymore.

I knew it, I just...

No peeking in here, in someone else's room,

invading our privacy.
