In these times of enlightened sexual politics, Ted Davis
is a scoring machine. He's got the rap, the charm and his
little black book weighs several pounds.
Ted has become a guru to his buddies who can only aspire
in awe to his greatness. This is a man's man, a ladies man,
a super-hero... He's Ted Davis: "BachelorMan."
Ted has got it made. He's young, single and
works as an executive at an all-sports cable network. He majors
in women. Lots of women.
At work, at the sushi bar, at the nightclub
and the gym he hones his pick-up and dating techniques, all
the while providing "bachelor tips" to wanna-be
Romeos everywhere.
...But there's one thing Ted didn't count
on meeting: His match.
Bachelor
Tip #31: Spray Polish over the Door
|
Ted
answers the door intercom and buzzes her in. He springs
into action, moving to a small picture hanging in the
entry way. He slides it away to reveal three cans of
furniture cleaner in a cubby hole in the wall.
TED:
Bachelor Tip #31: When you see her coming, spray some
polish over the door. When she comes in she'll think
you spent the whole day dusting.
He
sprays the door, putting the can back in its hiding
place as the doorbell RINGS. He opens the door, gesturing
her inside. She enters, sniffing the air.
SHERRY:
Have
you been cleaning? For me?

When the woman of his dreams, "Heather,"
moves in next door, Ted's ordeal begins. She's beautiful,
long-legged, athletic and LOUD. Her constant groans and howls
of amorous pleasure turn Ted's domain of conquest and libidinous
triumph into a nightmare world of BachelorMan-Interruptus.
During her frequent love-making sessions, Heather makes more
noise than Monica Seles at match point. She's a maestro, a
champion, a sex-machine like no other. Ted must have her…
So the hunt begins as Ted delivers a first
round of come-ons and invitations for his object of desire
to become entangled, but nothing works. After consulting the
experts at his job, the campaign continues with flowers, billboards
and a marching band. Ted even resorts to getting advice from
his mom, who says; "God you're hornier than Woody Allen at
a family reunion - just like your old lady!"… But none of
the classic lines, scams or gifts will sway 'Bachelorette
Woman' to have anything to with him.
When all seems hopeless, Ted gets some
guidance from his good friend Meg that turns the situation
around: "Don't scam on her, listen to her, be SINCERE." Of
course!
Ted runs next door to attest his true feelings
for the only woman he could ever love - and sure enough -
it works! They fall passionately into each other's arms and
in the throws of love, Ted proclaims to the camera: "Yes!
When all else fails, the old 'honesty' gag works every time!"…
Bachelor
Tip #22: The Lift-Up-The-Hips Deal
|
Ted
expertly unbuckles her belt. He goes for the zipper,
but AHH -- there are buttons! He reaches up and blows
on his fingers like he's cracking a safe, then expertly
unbuttons her pants (with one hand). There is only token
resistance as he grabs the top of her jeans with both
hands, ready to pull them down. He pauses, pondering
intensely.
TED:
Bachelor Tip #22: In this situation, you never really
know whether you're going all the way until she does
the old lift-up-the-hips deal. When she does that, you're
in there. Don't get cocky until this point.
He
turns back to her. She smiles and lifts her hips very
deliberately. Ted looks with a raised eyebrow.
TED:
Yes!!!
|
But things are not all that they seem
in Ted's new bliss: He's different. He now listens to John
Tesh CD's, dresses like a J. Crew catalogue and tapes episodes
of 'Melrose Place.' His bachelor pad has fluffy pillows,
knickknacks and cat calendar, replacing the Lava Lamp, Snap-On
Tools calendar and SoloFlex Machine. At work, he cancels
the mega-popular "Career-ending Football Injury Bloopers"
show, replacing it with "Couples Figure-skating." He may
be in love, but he's changed; and his best friend Gordie
sums it all up to Ted like a cold slap in the face: "You're
pussy-whipped!"
 |
Realizing that in this love-induced haze,
he's been tricked into turning his life upside-down, Ted
breaks it off with Heather to again pursue his destiny as
"BachelorMan." But something is very wrong in single-and-looking-land.
Ted can't turn the ladies heads like he used to - none of
the scams work. Suddenly, Ted couldn't get laid at a Pearl
Jam concert with a fistful of backstage passes. He's lost
his bachelor super-powers, because - gasp - he's STILL IN
LOVE. BachelorMan has found his Kryptonite…
He must get her back - but how? It will take
all of BachelorMan's skill and cunning to get his Lois Lane
back….
… And Ted Davis knows the perfect scam.
