Christmas Eve, Patrick and Kevin are standing at the bar with Dom, Doris and Malik, while Agustin and Eddie are on the dance floor.

(Patrick hands Kevin a drink and leans close to Kevin)

Patrick: I'm getting drunk tonight.

Kevin: I can see that.

Patrick: Stop me before I do or say anything stupid please.

(Kevin smiles evilly)

Kevin: I have my camera ready.

Patrick: Ass. I'm serious. No scenes tonight. I'm already having fun. Don't let me regret coming out.

Kevin: I'll look after you, darling. (Kevin puckers up and kisses Patrick loudly)

Patrick: Mmmm...My knight in shining armor (Patrick nuzzles into Kevin's neck and grabs Kevin's ass)

(Kevin pushes him away, laughing)

Kevin: Would this count as something you might find embarrassing in the morning?

Patrick: No (Patrick pretends outrage). Making out with my hot boyfriend? This is a fucking kodak moment.

Kevin: Would having your boyfriend sporting a hard-on in front of all your friends count?

Patrick: Are you kidding me? I would LOVE it. They would all be so jealous if they could see what I get to see every day. (Patrick leans back in to kiss Kevin's neck).

Kevin: Right. Enough shots for you I think. Why don't you switch to water for a little.

Patrick: I'm going to dance. Come with me?

Kevin: Let me finish my drink.

(Patrick turns to Doris, who is chatting with Dom and Malik)

Patrick: Doris. You have to come dance with me. It's Christmas Eve!

Doris: We have to be going. Driving to Vallejo tonight. We just popped in to say Happy Christmas and we're off to sprinkle Christmas magic to all the little children in California.

Patrick: One dance. Come on. Malik, you've got time for one dance? Please Doris?

Doris: Sure! Why not? For the first time I'm at a gay bar with an actual date, so I get to dance WITH the promise of hot sex after? This is what I've been waiting for my whole life. Can Malik come? Or will it turn him gay?

Malik: You've been trying to turn me gay for weeks now woman. Don't you know it's not something you catch? Coming Dom?

Dom: I've got to be drunker than this to get on that dance floor.

Doris: Whatever. We are DANCING motherfuckers!

(Doris, Malik and Patrick move to join Eddie and Agustin on the dance floor).

Dom: Ahhh...peace and quiet. And here we are, the two old men, nursing our drinks while the young children dance.

Kevin: Having a lovely Christmas?

(Dom laughs)

Dom: Just finding it harder to keep up with the boys these days. I'm trying to start my own business and I'm working twice as hard now at 40 as I did when I was 20! God, what a waste youth is on the young.

Kevin: I thought 40 was the new 30.

Dom: Don't let them fool you. 40 is 40. Your body starts letting you know that it's ten years older than ten years ago.

Kevin: I saw you playing rugby. Looked pretty healthy to me.

Dom: Right. You were there that day. You should have seen me on Sunday morning. Not a pretty picture.
