Scenes with Alice Kinnon
11 scenes Alice Kinnon Alice Kinnon I hear you have a much better chance of getting in if you come by cab.
You're really worried about getting in?
Alice Kinnon Yes.
I thought you've been here several times before.
Alice Kinnon Not the front way. They were private parties. We came in through the back.
We look real good tonight. I'm sure we're gonna get in.
Alice Kinnon [Alice and Charlotte round the corner and see a large crowd waiting outside the Disco Club] [beat]
Let's get a cab.
Yeah.
A lot of people like to say they won't take no for an answer. I just wanted you to know that I'm not one of them; I can be easily discouraged. I will take no for an answer.
Alice Kinnon Okay. No.
You don't mean that?
Alice Kinnon No. [Smiles]
Dan Powers
You know, Alice, except for politics, we've got a lot in common: We're both pretty serious, and, I think, respect each other's bases for judgment. Occasionally I get reactionary thoughts, too.
Alice Kinnon I'm not reactionary.
Dan Powers
Well, aesthetically.
Alice Kinnon Oh, well - aesthetically.
Alice Kinnon I think it's much better to wait until things happen naturally. Forcing things never works.
That's not true. Forcing things usually works beautifully.
Take The Tortoise and the Hare. Okay, the tortoise won one race. Do you think that hare is really going to lose any more races to turtles? Not on your life.
Alice Kinnon I like that tortoise.
So do I. But if you were a betting person, would you say, "That tortoise won against the hare; in future races I'm backing him"? No. That race was almost certainly a fluke and afterwards the tortoise is still a tortoise, and the hare a hare.
I'm sorry, its just that you're so terrific, it makes me sick to think you might get in that terrible situation again where everyone hated you.
Alice Kinnon Hated me?
You're wonderful. Maybe in physical terms I'm a little cuter than you, but you should be much more popular than I am. It would be such a shame if what happened in college should repeat itself.
Its women like you whose attitudes towards men are so dehumanizing.
Like what?
That men are swine, obsessed with large breasts and the sex act, devoid of any idealistic romantic sensibility. When, in fact, we have that idealistic sensibility, in spades. For instance, you have no idea what men really think about women's breasts.
Alice Kinnon What do men think about women's breasts?
Well, its not just something you blurt out. Its far more complicated and nuanced.
Alice Kinnon That's odd he knew I drank vodka tonics. I never told him.
It's uncanny.
Alice Kinnon You mean it's a complete cliché? All women recent college graduates drink vodka tonics, or something like that?
Well, maybe.
Alice Kinnon [to Charlotte]
So, Jimmy thinks I'm a total cliche?
I ordered a Vodka tonic too. So what? You're plenty original without having to order something weird to drink.
Yeah, I wouldn't worry about it. Can I get you another?
Alice Kinnon Thanks. Actually, if you don't mind, I think I'd prefer - um - a whiskey sour.
Alice Kinnon If when making love, the man... spurts... outside the woman, does that count as sexual intercourse?
Tom Platt
"Spurts"?
Alice Kinnon If it... squirts outside, without getting in... does that count as losing your virginity?
Tom Platt
No part of the man got in at any time?
Alice Kinnon I don't think so.
Tom Platt
I think part has to get in to be considered sexual intercourse.
Alice Kinnon So then I was a virgin.
Alice Kinnon Do you really think we know each other well enough to move in together?
Well, maybe that's good.
Alice Kinnon Its not just that we don't know each other well. I'm not even sure we really like each other.
That's okay. You know, Alice, I'm not so much of a bitch as I seem.
