The scene opens in a hotel lobby, where a young man and a middle-aged woman are waiting for a cab. The young man tells the woman that he's going to stay at a friend's house for the night, and the older woman tells him that she'll stay at her family's home. The two men discuss the fact that they're "an age couple" , which means they've been together for a long time. The older woman says that the younger man is "kind of stiff" and "bossy" . She tells the older man that she fell for him, but that he was so "charming" that she couldn't figure out how to get along with him. She says that she begged him for his number, and they just started meeting, and she's sure that's why he gave her his number. She's worried that he will treat her like a child, and that he won't be able to keep up with her in her age. She wants to be an equal, and wants to love her as an equal. She doesn't want him to think that she is a "dirty old man," and she wants him to know that she wants to keep control of their relationship.
