Once More for the Cheap Seats in the Back!
Does this sound at all familiar?
Creepy old guy? Silly young woman? He acts as though perhaps he doesn’t know the town at all, maybe he reaches out to her. She, thinking he’s a poor old man with no friends, agrees to help him learn the area and maybe even agrees to grab a beer. Suddenly, the facade is stripped away and it is revealed that this is not a kindly old man with platonic, grandfatherly interest. It is, in fact, a dirty old man who finds her attractive.
Unsure how to diffuse the situation, she warily agrees to uphold her end of the bargain and goes to get this beer. Upon arrival, she learns that he is older than creepy, married, and has children older than her parents.
Does she flee? Does she grab her bag and haul ass to the door? Of course not. Instead, she has another beer. Before long, her head is swimming and she’s utterly discombobulated.
The evening ends with a twist. Tune in tomorrow for updates.
A Lifetime movie? A CBS movie of the week? No. Just a Friday night in the life of Kari. Creepy old man? Check. Silly young woman? Check. Woman who is utterly unaware of the obvious plot? Check. You’d think by now I’d learn, wouldn’t you? Sigh.
Stay tuned for updates.
