INT. EXAM ROOM - DAY
We're not exactly sure where we are. And we're not exactly
sure who's talking. All we know is that we are looking at a
foot. One bare foot with chipped red polish.ZOE (V.O.)
I can't believe I didn't get a
pedicure for this. How
embarrassing. Look at that...The toes open and then curl down as if trying to hide.
ZOE (V.O.)(CONT'D)
What's wrong with me? If I were
with a real guy doing this, I
would've gotten a pedicure. And a
wax. I'm pathetic.The CAMERA PANS to the other foot, which is also chipped.
ZOE (V.O.) (CONT'D)
Fuck, that one's even worse. And
when did my toes get so fat? No
wonder I'm alone. I'm a fat-toed
animal.Zoe lets out a sigh. She speaks out-loud now.
