Robert sighs as he pulls into the driveway. It's been a long day of police work. He stretches as he gets out of his car. He slowly walks towards the house. When he opens the front door he sees his mother straddling his father's legs. "Ma! What the hell is going on here?"
"Why are you so surprised, Robby?" Marie asks as she stands up. "Your father and I are married after all."
"Yeah, but you bicker all the time. You hate each other, so the fact that you were in such an intimate embrace surprises me." Robert says rubbing his eyes.
"Bickering is the mainstay of an Italian marriage, Robert. Bickering and arguing brings a couple closer together. You underestimate the connection between your mother and I." Frank says as he stands up and puts his hands on Marie's shoulders. "Your mother and I are closer than anyone thinks. We just know each other too well sometimes."
"So, I suppose after everything I've seen tonight, I can assume that you're still intimate with each other." Robert says glumly. This disturbs him greatly, especially since he's not intimate with anyone.
"Why do people always assume that after people hit 50 sex becomes extinct? Your mother and I are having better sex now than we did when you and your brother were living at home." Frank says firmly.
"I didn't need to know any of that!" Robert cries indignantly. "That was far too much information about your sex life! I'm going over to see Ray and Debra." Robert slams the front door as he leaves. "Ray! Can we talk?"
"Robert, what is it?" Ray asks as Robert bursts in the back door.
"When I walked into the house tonight Ma was sitting on, straddling Dad's lap. Dad got talking about how great their sex life is. It was far more information than I ever wanted to know about our parents." Robert says shaking his head like an Etch-a-Sketch to get rid of the memory.
"Why did you have to tell me? I never wanted to ever imagine my parents as sexual beings. That image will never leave my brain."Ray exclaims. He's shocked at his parents' behaviour.
"I had to tell someone so I didn't have that image burned so vividly into my brain." Robert says as he slumps onto the sofa.
