Part XIII: Offers and Sessions

The Sex Palace webmaster had dubbed our videos John & Holly’s Fun Times, each one had a Part 1,2, or 3 following it. Three days after 2 and 3 hit the world wide web, I checked the site. We knew that if our videos received good enough reviews we would make more videos and more money, but bad reviews meant they would not extend the contract any further. Holly and I hoped that we would get another contract, we had a total of $12,500 guaranteed to us, but if reviews aren’t good, that could be all there is. I nervously signed into The Sex Palace, looking at the member reviews. The first film had scored a 9.6/10, which was the highest rating of any video on the site, the second film was only a 7.1/10, which still placed it at 78th in the top 100, of around 10,000 videos on the site. The Third film scored a 9.2/10, which was enough to put it in the top 10 at 7th place. I read some of the reviews, there were lots of positive comments, including things like “make more movies!”. I was stunned. “Holly!!” I yelled, she was still sleeping this summer Monday morning. Holly stumbled into the living room, completely naked, as we always slept, in my small, our small apartment. “Our first movie is the highest rated movie on the site” I said. “Are you kidding?” she said very excited. “1st, 7th and 78th” I said. “I told you people don’t like the ones that are obviously acting, like teacher give me an A, I’ll give you a blowjob” she said, mimicking her acting student voice. “Okay so you won that bet, people like it when they think it’s real” I conceded. I checked my e-mail, sure enough I had a message from the webmaster.

John, I have been contacted by several production companies offering to buy the rights to your movies from me. I have been offered $50,000 to get your three movies plus give all rights to Modern Film Company. They want to get you guys into a studio in Los Angeles. They told me to tell you that you would be making more money than you can imagine. Please contact me. Here is my phone number:

I called up the webmaster, he actually sounded like a normal guy, I expected a computer nerd. He gave me the number for MFC in LA, and told me that if we were willing to try it, MFC would pay him fifty thousand dollars to buy our contract of exclusivity.

So I called up MFC in LA. “yes I was told to ask for…Jerry”
“Please Hold”
“Jerry Spencer”
“Hi this is John Morrison”
“Oh, hello John, we are quite interested in your work”
“Well thank you” I said, it’s odd that so many people were interested in my girlfriend’s and my ‘work’.
“Were think you two are our next stars, we want you two to come down here and make some movies what do you think.”
“Well what kind of movies, I don’t know if we will do anything separately.”
“Well first off we would put you both in very minor roles just to see that you can do the job on camera, then we would go from there”
“How much money?” I asked, getting to the point.
“Well, we would buy the rights to your first three films and those we would start selling, and standard deal is 10% for each star and 5% for the minor roles, that’s the usual cut, unless we have more actors of course.”
“Well how much would it sell?”
“We think we could make around $150,000 on those three films”
That meant we would make $45,000, and Steph and Rachel would get a cut also.
