Felicia:  I did a lot of thinking on my own while you were gone and while I don't like admitting it, I have to, because you were right about my fears.  I'm talking about the relationship stuff.  I guess it's just because I've never been very good at them.

Mac:  Well, you know, there's no real great mystery to it Felicia.  I mean, you just sort of decide that you want to have a relationship with someone, and you go for it.

Felicia:  That simple huh?

Mac:  Usually.

Felicia:  So when you're talking about a relationship, you're talking about a sexual one?

Mac:  Usually.

Felicia:  What about all the questions?

Mac:  What questions?

Felicia:  Do you call me?  Do I call you?  What happens if we make love and you don't call me and I get hurt and vice versa?  What happens if we make love, and it's great?

Mac:  That's a problem?  You're going to have to explain that one to me.

Felicia:  Yeah, it's the greatest thing ever in the whole world.

Mac:  It would be.

Felicia:  You're so sure of yourself aren't you?

Mac:  In some areas yeah.

Felicia:  Okay Mr. Wonderful, Mr. Lover.  You just can't keep your hands off of me.

Mac:  I'm loving this.  This is great.  Sure.  Yeah.

Felicia:  No, that's not the point.  The focal point would be sex and we wouldn't really know what our relationship was all about and it would take months to figure it out.  That is scenario #1, then you have scenario #2 which is, what if the sex is bad?

Mac:  Not possible.

Felicia:  Yes, it is.  You never know.  We spend our days together and we'd see each other at work.  We'd look at each other and see big block letters over our heads flashing saying "BAD SEX, BAD SEX, BAD SEX" what's that going to do to our friendship?

Mac:  Nothing Felicia because nothing would get in the way of our friendship.  I don't think either one of us would let that happen.

Felicia:  No no no, that's not true because when you have sex, it changes everything.  For example, whenever you get all upset and all crabby and all nasty, you can go into the other room and sit down and relax for a while and then
everything's better.  But whenever there's love involved and there's sex involved and then things start getting a little bit more personal and I start thinking things like "Is it my fault?" and you think "Is it my fault?" and things can get really, really messy.

Mac:  Look, I understand exactly what you're saying.  I understand where you're coming from but that's not going to be us, we don't have to act stereotypically.  Look, we will choose to handle whatever comes up between us.

Felicia:  I guess I'm saying all of these things because I've really only had a serious relationship with a couple of men.  I never thought I'd just be the dating type, I just thought I'd get married and have about 5 kids.

Mac:  5 kids?  You want 5 kids?

Felicia:  Yeah, you have a problem with that?

Mac:  No, No... I just didn't know that about you Felicia that's all.

Felicia:  See there's another thing.  I happen to know that when you get very nervous, you pace.  Back and forth, and back and forth, and back and forth; and you happen to know that whenever a plate of french fries is placed in front of my face, I lose my sense of self and I have to eat it.  Just because we were on the run with each other doesn't necessarily mean that we know each other.

Mac:  Okay! Okay!

Felicia:  Okay?

Mac:  Yeah okay.  Look, you're right.  There are a lot of things to consider... and Maxie is right up there at the top of the list.

Felicia:  Maxie and her 4 siblings... you're not mad at me are you?

Mac:  No, I'm not mad at you.  I just want things to be right between us, that's all.  It is important to me.

Felicia:  Sometimes you can be so sweet.

Mac:  I should go.

Felicia:  No, don't leave...

Mac:  Yeah I should.

Felicia:  Okay, but first I want you to know that I really do want you.  Every nerve ending is screaming.

Mac:  Well, could you tell them to scream a little louder because I can't hear them.

Felicia gives Mac a very long, passionate kiss and things start heating up but Mac pulls away.

Mac:  Maybe I should really go.  It would be terrible to have all this enlightened conversation for nothing.

Felicia:  Right.

Mac:  Right.... so I'll, ah, see you tomorrow.

Felicia:  I can't wait!  Good night Mac.

Mac:  Good night Felicia.
