The Trouble with Romance
The Story:
A hotel plays host to four couples who are having problems coping with their relationships in a variety of ways.
"Banged", partners Jack (Kip Pardue) and Jill (Jennifer Siebel Newsom) engage in heavy non-verbal physical communication but are interrupted by an invisible being, which makes for some amusing reactions from Jill.
"Spice", Karen (Josie Davis) and Paul (David Eigenberg) a husband and wife in another hotel room, safe from the claustrophobia of home, present ostensibly to re-ignite their sagging physical affections, throwing in a third element to raise the stakes: an office worker who has apparently been the apple of one spouse's eye.
"Dumped", Jimmy (Roger Fan) and Stephanie (Emily Liu) are boyfriend and girlfriend Jimmy and Stephanie, a couple in a hotel room invited to a VIP club soiree to celebrate their third anniversary of dating. Things get out of proportion (as does the bathroom humor) when Jimmy invites his two goofy stoned-out male-bonding buddies along for the celebration.
"Love?" features a two-person exchange. In a fourth hotel room, a beautiful, high-priced and elegant prostitute Nicole (Sheetal Sheth), shares an insightful and philosophical conversation with her john Charlie (Jordan Belfi), a lovelorn man who believes that true love can happen, especially with the woman before him.
