“Doc, you’ve gotta help me! My wife just
isn’t interested in sex anymore. Haven’t
you got a pill or something I can give her?”
“Look, I can’t prescribe…”
“Doc, we’ve been friends for years. Have
you ever seen me this upset? I am desperate!
I can’t think; I can’t concentrate; my life is
going utterly to hell! You’ve got to help me.”
The doctor opens his desk drawer and removes a
small bottle of pills. “Ordinarily, I wouldn’t
do this. These are experimental; the tests
so far indicate that they’re VERY powerful.
Don’t give her more than ONE, understand? Just
ONE.”
“I don’t know, doc, she’s awfully cold…”
“One. No more. In her coffee. Okay?”
“Um, okay.”
The guy expresses gratitude and leaves for
home, where his wife has dinner waiting.
When dinner is finished, she goes to the
kitchen to bring dessert. The man hastily
pulls the pills from his pocket and drops
one into his wife’s coffee. He reflects
for a moment, hesitates, then drops in a
second pill.
And then he begins to worry. The doctor
did say they were powerful.
Then inspiration strikes, he drops one
pill into his own coffee.
His wife returns with the shortcake and
they enjoy their dessert and coffee. Sure
enough, a few minutes after they finish,
his wife shudders a little, sighs deeply
and heavily, and a strange look comes over
her. In a near-whisper and a tone of voice
he has never heard her use before, she says,
“I…need…a man”
His eyes glitter and his hands tremble as he
replies, “Me…too…”
