Blind Date

A couple sit at a table drinking their coffee, there is an awkwardness between them, suddenly the woman, PAM, sits back in her chair and closes her eyes.

PAM
Ahh.

The man PAUL looks on bemused.

PAM
Ahhh, ahh.

PAM continues for several beats, until her faked orgasm reaches a crescendo.

PAM
Ahh, yes! Yes! Yes!

PAM bangs her head on the table and writhes about in her seat, PAUL looks on gobsmacked and astonished. Finally when it’s over, PAM looks up and runs her hand through her dishevelled hair.

PAM
God, I’ve always wanted to do that,have a Meg Ryan moment, so what did you say you do for a living?

Hey Julie,
Great theme for a series of these. I wonder if we'd know this was a blind date. Perhaps you need something to make that clearer - you could include the meeting briefly?

A nice take. Can't say I've had the pleasure of such a blind date. Come to think of it, I've never had one - except when I go to bed with the wife and the lights are out!

I agree, the only way we know it's a blind date is because it's the title. Not sure if this is a problem though if you are penning a series of sketches with the blind date theme. Reminds me a bit of the "Checque Please" guy on Goodness Gracious Me.
