49 INT. PONTINGS’ HOUSE, BEDROOM. NORTH OXFORD. DAY.<br />
49<br />
FLORENCE is at a window seat with a book, ‘Love, Sex and<br />
Marriage - a Young Bride’s Guide.’ Behind her, a violin in its<br />
open case, music stand, sheet music. At various points she looks<br />
up, faintly nauseated, then forces herself to go on reading.<br />
FLORENCE (V.O.)<br />
‘...this pleasurable excitement causes<br />
the penis to fill with blood and<br />
become engorged...’ oh God...<br />
‘secretes a clear substance to<br />
lubricate the mucous membrane...’<br />
ugh... ‘and now the foreplay is<br />
concluded, he lies on top of her, and<br />
it is perfectly acceptable for her to<br />
use a hand gently to guide her husband<br />
in, and at last he enters her...’<br />
enters me... ‘he enters her and this<br />
is known as penetration...<br />
RUTH, is in the hall, looking for her.<br />
Flo?<br />
RUTH (V.O.)<br />
FLORENCE<br />
Enter. You may enter me.<br />
What?<br />
Nothing.<br />
RUTH<br />
FLORENCE<br />
RUTH<br />
Are you all right?<br />
FLORENCE<br />
I’m feeling rather sick.<br />
RUTH<br />
What are you reading?<br />
FLORENCE<br />
A sex manual.<br />
In thrilled horror, RUTH’S hand covers her mouth.
