Dying for Sex (2025) s01e07 Episode Script

1
- [Nikki] Hi. Hi.
- Hi.
Hey. Hi. Hi.
[whispers] Jesus Christ.
Can I Can I get
some more blankets?
- Yeah. Are you family?
- Yes.
Um, why are her
hands bolted down?
It's so she doesn't
pull the tubes out.
We had to intubate her
after her lung collapsed.
[Nikki whispers]
Your lung collapsed?
- Oh, man! And in terms
of her Oh, my - Yeah.
What [sighs]
- What's on your hat?
- Excuse me?
Do you have Harry Potter lightning
bolts on your surgical hat?
[Molly tapping]
- Yeah. Yup. Yup. Yup.
- What
[Dr. Rupert] Are you
in distress, Ms
- Can you hold that? Hold on one second?
- Okay.
Oh, my gosh. Okay. You can
just write it on there.
- [pen scribbles]
- [Nikki whispers] Sweetie.
Oh, my God.
Okay, I got you.
"Does he have a permission slip
from his parents to be here?"
- Is Is that - [Nikki scoffs]
Oh, she's talking about me.
She's Okay.
[Dr. Rupert] A lot of
adults like Harry Potter. I
I grew up with the movies.
[sighs] I know you wanna
get that thing out,
but they said we have to
wait till tomorrow morning
to decide what to do next.
And honestly, I've always thought that
you kind of talked a little too much.
So [clicks tongue] now I
can finally get a word in.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[pen scribbles]
"Don't leave"?
What?
Why would I leave?
[whispers] I have
a captive audience.
Ha-ha. Okay.
Your choices for
entertainment are
the full script of A
Midsummer Night's Dream,
or everything that I can
remember from the movie Clueless,
which is a shocking amount.
"I am your spaniel.
And Demetrius,
the more you beat me,
I will fawn on you."
Oh
So, Helena is a bottom.
"My plastic surgeon says I can't do any
activities where balls fly at my nose."
"Well, there goes your
social life." [chuckles]
This is my impression of the
language that they call French.
[clears throat]
[Nikki speaks incomprehensively
with a French accent]
Oh, one thumbs up.
[continues incomprehensively
with French accent]
Oh, double thumbs up.
Blink twice if you'd like
to watch me do some sports.
Sweet. Love - love.
[grunts]
[screeches]
[in French accent] Thumbs down.
Non, non, non. We hate this.
"Oh my god. I love Josh."
Fountain. Fountain. Fountain.
"I'm majorly, totally,
butt-crazy in love with Josh.
But now I don't know
how to act around him."
That's such a good part. [sighs]
The first night we hung out,
we stayed up all night
walking around. [sighs]
And you were dating my
horrible acting teacher.
Yeah. He deserves it.
And you were so quiet and pretty
that I thought you must be dumb.
Honestly, it was
a lot like this.
But then you really
just blew me away.
Molly wants the
breathing tube out.
- Are those vulvas?
- Yeah. They're vulvas wearing fancy hats.
They're going to
the royal wedding.
I was, like, trying
to make her laugh.
Can we just take that tube out?
- Nikki. Here's the thing. We
- We can take it out now, but
Great. Then let's just do that.
There's a risk that her body won't
remember how to breathe on its own.
What? What are you saying?
Sometimes the body
just doesn't remember.
And Molly has a Do Not
Resuscitate order in place,
so if she stops breathing
or her heart stops,
then we would not perform CPR.
And as her health proxy,
you would need to okay that.
[Nikki inhales sharply]
I've been awake for 30 hours. I'm
wearing toilet paper as underwear.
Are you asking me if I can let
Molly stop breathing in front of me?
Yes.
[monitor beeps steadily]
You're going to
remember how to breathe.
Okay, Molly. We're gonna
do this together, okay?
We're gonna remove the tube, and
it's gonna feel a little weird.
But once it's out, I need you
to take a deep breath, okay?
[Dr. Rupert] Hand me a 10cc
tube. Ready the oxygen.
[Molly gags]
[Molly wheezes, coughs]
[gasps, chokes, coughs]
[Nikki] Yes!
Okay, great.
- Yes! Yes!
- Yes. Slow deep breaths. Deep breath.
- Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!
- Yes!
Mwah!
Yes!
Was that your first kiss?
[Nikki chuckles]
[laughs]
I've been kissed before. I
- We know that, right? [chuckles] -
[Sonya] Yeah. Of course. Yeah, sure.
[Nikki sighs]
Your neighbor brought you here.
I told him I loved
him. [breathes heavily]
- You did?
- Yeah. I know.
Okay. So, now that your
breathing has stabilized,
I'm concerned about this
numbness you're feeling.
- We'll do a lumbar puncture
- Hi, Jerry.
Hi, Molly.
May I sit down?
Please.
[sighs]
Tomorrow morning,
we would like to do a spinal tap
to see if the cancer has spread
to the lining of
your spinal cord.
Now, do you have any questions?
Yes. [sighs]
What will happen if
you find cancer there?
Then we will have a conversation
about whether you wanna
continue with treatment.
[Nikki sighs]
Okay.
Thank you.
Yes. Let's do that.
Okay, good. All right.
I'll schedule it
for, uh, tomorrow.
But you know, you you're gonna need some
time after the procedure to recover.
And I just I I know that you have
certain, um, goals, physically.
And I just wanna make sure that
you're able to achieve them safely.
Whoa! I'm just That's really
Dr. P, are you saying that you want
me to be able to keep having sex?
I'm not made of stone.
[Nikki] Mm-hmm.
I don't know.
- Oh. What? Hell yes.
- Uh, I've never seen anything like that.
Does Jerry have game?
I'm gonna go give him a hug.
I'm wet from that.
Like, is Jerry hot?
- Oh, my God. Nikki.
- Yes!
I wanna see him. I
wanna see him again.
I wanna see him,
like, right now.
Not Jerry, but your
neighbor? [chuckles]
Are you, like, into
Jerry now? [chuckles]
- No, you're not, right?
- Will you help me?
I wanna touch his mustache.
Oh, my God, yes! Of course!
Of course. Of course.
Um, I'll go home and get him.
I'm gonna get your vibrators,
I'll get your lube.
I got it. I got it.
Oh, my God! "Come night.
Come Romeo!" [squeals]
"Come thou day in night." I'm
just, like I'm doing Shakespeare!
- No, I know.
- I love Shakespeare.
- I know.
- I go. I go. Look how I go!
Don't die.
- I won't.
- [door closes]
What?
So there's a nice nurse
and an evil nurse?
Yeah, we need to get there
before the shift change.
Did you put the bag with
the lubes in the car?
- Yeah.
- And the bag with the vibrators?
- Oh, my God! Where's my phone?
- Yeah.
[stammers] Why would I
know where your phone is?
And why does she need all that stuff?
How long is she gonna be in there?
I don't know. I never know.
So she could be in there
a few days or forever?
And we're just supposed
to live in both realities?
- That's really fucked.
- Yeah.
[sighs] Well, it feels
different this time.
Well, I think you're amazing. I mean,
I watch you, and you do everything.
Well, not everything.
But, you know, if I could have
sex with her, I would. [chuckles]
Yeah. I bet. I mean,
it's really cool
[stammers]
to have sex with
her. I love it.
This is weird.
- This? It's just human sexuality.
- [phone rings]
Ooh! Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
Oh, my God! Oh, my God! Yes!
Whoo! [screams, groans] Oh, yes!
[Noah] Nikki?
Oh, shit! Did I pick this up?
Uh, yeah. You did. Hi.
[Nikki] Uh
Hi, Noah.
- Um - Uh.
I'm calling 'cause I got
a medical bill for Molly,
and I wanted to let you know.
It's so nice to hear from you.
It's so good to hear from you.
It's just, um Molly's
in the hospital.
I had them take her off the
ventilator, but she's okay.
I'm My God! Oh, my God!
No! [Nikki screams]
- Shit!
- No, man!
No, no, no, no. You
cannot. Oh, Jesus.
- We need everything in there.
- What you doing, man?
- No! No, no, no, no!
- We're going to the hospital.
Get off the fucking car!
Do something! Don't
you work for 311?
Yeah, but that's not
related to parking!
- Yeah. I'm 311. So you can't do this
- Get the fuck off the car!
- He's 311. No, no, no, no.
- Jesus!
- Oh, my God!
- I'm gonna fuck you up with forms!
[Nikki] No!
[Noah] Nikki, what
what what's happening?
- [Neighbor Guy groans] - Noah,
why are you still on the phone?
You haven't hung up yet.
- No! They're towing my car.
- Oh, fuck!
My car. My car.
My suitcase and my tote and all
of Molly's stuff is in the car.
- My car.
- Come here.
Don't No. Please don't
hug me. We're not friends.
I mean, we're not strangers.
- [Noah] Who's hugging you?
- Get on the subway.
Okay.
[Noah] Nikki, what can I
do? Let me do something.
Okay. I need help.
I need help.
[Sonya] What is lost is found.
[Molly] What man could resist
me in these beefy unders?
[laughs] Come on. Do you want to
know where I got this deodorant?
- [sighs] Oh, no. No.
- That's what I thought.
Are there any, like, sluttier
hospital gowns lying around?
Just turn it around backwards.
You know, easy access.
Yeah, but what else do you need?
What else was in Nikki's car?
- We got
- Everything. Like, literally everything.
Okay.
Is it strange how calm I feel?
I don't know what's going on
with me. I just feel so clear.
Like my mind feels clear.
I'm really proud of you.
What? I am. I am. I just
Hey, I need to warn you about
Ernie, the night nurse
[Ernie] You can warn
her all you want.
- I'm putting a stop to this.
- That's Ernie.
There will be no male visitors
tonight. Not on my watch.
This is a hospital,
not a bordello.
Ernie!
What kinda man takes advantage
of a sick woman like this?
Oh, no one's taking
advantage of me, Ernie.
Haven't you ever been in love?
That's none of your business.
[Sonya whispers] That's a yes.
Hi.
Welcome. [sighs]
- Would you like to use my bedside commode?
- Um
Not yet.
I have a tube in my
It's fucking hot.
You're so beautiful.
You're so beautiful.
I got you a gift.
It's really expensive, and I had
to hunt high and low for them.
Taco socks.
I just You know, I know
your feet get cold.
And who doesn't love tacos?
I hate these taco socks.
They make me sick.
Look at their little taco faces.
Why is only one of them
wearing sunglasses?
Is the lettuce supposed
to be the taco's hair?
I didn't think I could
hate shredded lettuce
any more than I already do,
but looking at it on these
taco socks fills me with rage.
If they say, "Let's taco
about it," I'm gonna scream.
Well, don't look
at the heel then.
Take off your clothes.
Come here.
Get on the bed.
Oh, my God! [chuckling]
You're so tall. [chuckles]
[sighs, panting] Hey. What's
happening? What's happening?
- It's okay. He's here.
- He's here.
- He is - He's
here? He's here.
- Oh, God.
- [Neighbor Guy yelps]
- [Molly laughs] Don't come in!
- [Neighbor Guy] She's okay. I'm also fine.
I have a boner.
Turn and face the
wall, you little perv!
How about he stays that
way till the morning?
Actually, my friend might be coming
soon with a bag of vibrators.
Those are for me.
I'll get right on that.
Excuse me.
- Hi.
- Hi.
Uh, I tried to get the stuff,
but, um, you didn't tell me what
kind of vibrator Molly likes.
Yes, I did. Clitoral stimulation,
no dildos. I did tell you that.
Yeah, but what kind of
clitoral stimulation?
[Nikki] Oh, my God! I thought
you hadn't bought anything.
- Of course I did.
- Thank you.
I-I couldn't answer the
questions they were asking.
Does she like direct,
rhythmic stimulation?
'Cause that one's good for that.
- This one is good for orbiting.
- Orbiting?
Yeah, orbiting. It's like when you make
small, gentle circles around the clitoris.
Cool.
Some women don't want you to,
like, touch their clitoris at all.
They just want you to, like
- I'm saying clitoris a lot.
- It's cool.
They just want you to, like, lightly
touch all the skin around it.
And then this one is shaped like
a rose. It's called the "Marilyn."
Not to sound ungrateful,
but I think this is a
I think this is a butthole.
Oh, I thought it was a rose.
Okay. Um, thank you.
Sure.
Well, um, I will deliver these
because it was a vibrator emergency.
I'm just gonna hang out and
wait till the rain lets up.
Thank you. Thank you.
Oh, I forgot. I got you soup. It's,
uh, the mushroom kind that you like.
Fuck!
I appreciate that.
That's really nice.
I'll come back to make some
circles around that soup.
I hate myself.
We've never kissed before.
I'd like to kiss you.
Is it okay to take that off?
It's just oxygen.
[Neighbor Guy moans]
My lips are so dry.
[Molly breathing heavily]
What if all I can do is
just lie here with you?
I don't know what you
thought this was going to be.
Because there's been so much build up
and there are just so many vibrators.
We don't have to do anything.
And you're right.
What's with all these vibrators?
Get outta here. Freaking us out.
- [laughs]
- Holy shit!
- Did you see that?
- What?
[chuckling]
I think what I'm gonna
do is just smell you.
Okay.
Yeah. 'Cause we don't
have to do anything.
[sighs] Yeah. There's
too many goals.
We live in a society that
just Everybody's goals.
I, um [chuckles]
Christ, I'm distracted.
I was saying
something about goals.
Goals are dumb,
you know? We don't
Who needs 'em?
- I fucking -
[breathing heavily]
And then when you achieve one,
then what are you gonna do?
Another goal? Fuck!
Oh, God! Hey, listen, um
I think I think, um
I think what we do need to do
We both need to agree that
it is not medically safe
for you to have any sexual
satisfaction tonight.
I mean, you absolutely
cannot come.
Oh, I agree.
- No, I'm much too weak and too sick.
- Yeah.
But then I don't think I
can let you come either.
- Oh, no. Certainly not.
- No.
Then why are you
so hard right now?
I'm not It's the railing.
[Neighbor Guy breathing heavily]
There's a railing in
the middle of the bed?
Fuck!
[Nikki slurping]
Do you think you could
eat that a little faster?
[Nikki chuckles]
Don't look over here.
[chuckling] I won't.
Are you engaged?
What?
[chuckles] You
heard what I said.
Are you engaged? To be married?
- No.
- Okay.
Okay.
I saw something on Instagram,
and you were wearing a ring.
I got really into rings
for a little while.
[laughing]
[chucking] I'm not kidding.
You and I had just
ended it, and I was like
I was kinda heartbroken and, um
I bought, like, 20 rings
in two months. [chuckles]
- Sweet, man. [laughs] Was it just rings?
- [laughs] Yeah.
I had one really bad night.
I bought a few bracelets
and a toe ring.
And I just wore it around the
apartment for, like, a week.
[laughs]
Nikki.
Yeah.
[sighs]
I'm with someone.
And it's nice.
It's easy.
Thank you for the soup.
[thunder rumbles]
[breathing heavily, moaning]
Okay. Okay. No.
I I have to stop.
I have to stop because
you are making noises
that make me think that you're starting
to get physically aroused and
What makes you think
I'm physically aroused?
I mean, your pupils are like
saucers and you're grunting.
Oh, no. That's just what
I do when I'm bored.
[chuckles]
I see.
I mean, you could
try touching me.
I don't think I
can feel anything.
[Molly breathing heavily]
Uh, no.
I don't feel anything.
No. I don't feel anything.
No, still nothing.
- Really?
- [pants] No.
Are you even touching
me right now?
I am touching you right now.
[Molly breathing heavily]
Gentle.
Yeah. Up and down.
[breathing heavily continues]
- [moans]
- [sighs]
I'm here.
I'm here.
[Neighbor guy moans]
[Molly sighs]
Molly. Fuck!
I forgot to play Wordle today.
I'm so sorry.
I always start with "gnome."
I always start with "Fuck you."
Obviously, you're the most
beautiful thing that ever happened,
but I've never liked that your
hair isn't filled with lube.
Oh, yeah.
I was right.
- This is my masterpiece.
- [chuckles]
[chuckles]
Okay. Now I can fuck the top of your
head like I've always wanted to.
Hey, do you wanna see my boobs?
Yeah!
They're so cool.
Thanks.
They're pretty cool.
I don't have much
feeling in them anymore.
I can feel that. [moans]
- What about here?
- No. No, not so much.
- Okay. I'm gonna be very thorough.
- Yeah, no.
That's not really working
for me. I just [sighs]
Can you use your tongue?
I mean, if I have to.
Touch it. Touch
it. Use your mouth.
[moans]
[Molly gasps]
Here's your vitamin E, Molly.
Finger.
Bracelet.
Your blood pressure is elevated.
And your leg looks fucked up.
You're killing me, Ernie.
Uh-huh.
- [Neighbor Guy] Do you think he noticed?
- [panting]
Wait. For real, why
why are you stopping?
It's It's the
responsible thing to do.
I hate you.
I hate you so much.
[moans, sighs]
[trembling] I need you.
[breathing heavily]
- Hey, you want it?
- Yes.
[gasps]
[sighs]
They're gonna come tap
my spine in an hour.
I'll stay.
No.
Okay. I'll come back tonight.
No.
I don't wanna die with you.
I wanna get a dog with you.
So, you just used me to get off,
and now you're done with me?
Yeah.
Yeah.
This is going to
be a blip for you.
[whispers] No.
No.
Will you stay till
after I fall asleep?
[whispers] Okay.
- Hi.
- Hi.
He left.
"Oh, my God.
I love Josh. I love Josh."
Fountain. Fountain.
Oh, my God! It happened? Oh, my God.
I'm so happy, I'm gonna come, I swear.
[chuckling]
I'm gonna cry. You should've
called me right when it happened.
Hi.
Ready?
