Scene 8 – Ben and Jenny are lying in bed. Jenny is smoking. Ben is grinning.
Ben: That was…..amazing!
Jenny: Yeah…..whatever….
Ben: That thing you did with your tongue…..and that bit with your hips…..it was just/incredible….
Jenny: Its just sex Ben.
(they both go quiet for a moment)
Ben: I still can't believe Marrissa's pregnant!
Jenny: Well you win the award for inappropriate after sex conversation. Can't you just roll over and fall asleep like most guys? You do realise you might be the father. What a fucked up child that would turn out to be!
Ben: But Marrissa's only just found out she's pregnant and nothings happened between us for months.
Jenny: Only just found out maybe, but she's four months gone.
Ben: (shocked and jumping up) Four months!
Jenny: So sure you're not the father now?
(Ben goes quiet and starts to look nervous. After a while he jumps out of bed and starts to get dressed)
Jenny: (mocking) Going already?
Ben: I don't think it's a good idea that I stay…
Jenny: (annoyed) Listen you can't go, if you do I want a pay-out.
Ben: What?
Jenny: You're being paid to be here, I want my share.
Ben: The games over, I'm going back Jenny. I have to talk to Marrissa.
Jenny: She won't keep the baby.
Ben: That's not what I'm afraid of. I'd love to have a child; I wouldn't make a bad father.
Jenny: (laughs) Really? Getting all maternal are we?
Ben: (grabbing Jenny's arms and shaking her) The baby isn't mine Jenny.
Jenny: (confused) What? But I thought…..
Ben: Yes we were sleeping with each other a year ago….and then just recently before I followed you here. If she was one month (pause) but four!
Jenny: Then it could be my fathers? I don't want a sibling with that witch as its mother!
Ben: I doubt it's your fathers Jenny. There must be someone else.
Jenny: (angry) Someone else! How many of you are there?
Ben: That's what I'd like to know.
Jenny: Maybe we could put Marrissa's money to good use.
Ben: How do you mean?
Jenny: We could…..hire a private detective. She's bound to be still seeing this guy (beat) or guys.
Ben: You know Jenny you're more than just a pretty face (he kisses her) but you are perfectly formed (he starts to run his hands all over her. Jenny pulls away)
Jenny: (looking innocent) You're sure that the baby isn't yours?
Ben: Perfectly (he takes her face in his hands) Jenny I wouldn't lie to you (he goes to kiss her and she pulls away)
Jenny: But you would have done. Let's face facts Ben, you were sent here to seduce and ruin me by my adulterous step-mother with whom you've had an affair. We can never have a proper relationship.
Ben: Why not? It was just sex with Marrissa. That's part of the joy of married women, they don't want anything more.
Jenny: But you would have lied/ to me…
Ben: But I didn't. That was when I thought you were an angel, now I know you're a sexy little devil there's really no need to lie is there?
Jenny: Really?
Ben: (getting up) Let's put your plan into action. Do you think they have private investigators in the yellow pages?
(he comes back to the bed with a yellow pages and they look through it)
