Stuck on You - From the Cutting Room Floor

During my attempts at taking pictures in Cooper's hotel room for The Other Side of the Stage, Chapter 27, I discovered that when you place a massage table in a hotel room it comes with a masseur/masseuse. I got to thinking...do they ever leave? Of course I posed this question to B who wrote this hilarious scenario for which I just had to capture images! It's strange...but humorous nonetheless. At least we couldn't stop laughing about it...

You can check out any time you like...but you can never leave...


“That was great, here’s a tip, thanks.” Waiting…"Uh, we’re done. You can go.”

“I don’t go. I stay here.”

“What’d you mean you stay here? In my room?”

“I stay here. When you want another massage, here I am.”


"Yeah, well, I’m not going to want another one. So there’s the door.” Waiting…"What’s the problem? Don’t you get it? I do not want you staying in my room!”

“I stay with the table. I stay here. When you want another massage, I am here.”


“I’ll never want another fucking massage! Not from you… Look, is it the table? You and the table? You can’t stand to leave the damned table? I’ll tell you what…I’m opening the door…I’m shoving the table out in the hall. See? There it is! Go for it!”


“You moved the table.”

“Yeah! I did!”
