[@tw3akedd0wn13]

Damn, this video makes so much more sense after you see the ending and rewatch it.

[@rehilton3062]

He's so so so handsome!

[@mattbellamymate]

As an English man, I've been so influenced by the media that I assumed they had to be English because they were being so awkward.

[@gcmarita]

haha me too!

[@melissamahoney7226]

I love this short film so much! I've watched it a few times and it just gets funnier haha

[@SchergeSatans]

I'm hiding here in the comments because this is so awkward...

[@ANDRU_OMEDA]

This actor and actress are in "The Philosophers" and have a similar relationship. Definitely worth a buy.

[@jaysun3606]

Plot twist : He wasnt actual male prostitute, he just wanted to avoid paying.

[@sbalogh53]

Good plan. Must remember it for my next session. :)

[@toxickremedy]

The acting was soooo good. This is better acting than some of those millionare fucks over in hollywood.

[@stophannahtime96]

both are common hollywood actors, you can find them working together in the film 'after the dark' its fantastic!

[@TheSilentHamish]

its that dude from the purge.

[@madmax9042]

Yes

[@veronastrauss8410]

+SilentHamish I knew i reconised him somewhere!

[@diamondgemstone5418]

yes

[@TheLadyinblack1989]

They can be partners. I mean, business partners.

[@QuarianAdmiral]

"I'm meeting with my boss" So smart, his boss is his client

[@seanraines5871]

That's what my escort said. I'm the boss (then she passed out) lol

[@joelee5875]

What a good film and the ending was such a surprise. Thank you for this.

[@dominicdemarco6213]

This is a gem!!! Haven't seen something this good in a long time!

[@Lukerr239]

Thats girl is fu*king gorgeous though

[@RalphDratman]

Youth is beautiful.

[@blurredacuity4017]

Ralph Dratman We are all beautiful regardless of age

[@nickthomas181]

Sofie Lowe is a godess fact

[@umartdagnir]

So... If she is $1000, and he is $600, it makes him owe her $400. They could have sorted this out.

[@radash]

Don't you mean $200?

[@umartdagnir]

radash No, $1000 - $600 = $400.

[@radash]

Dmitrij Bugajev Let assume we both walk into a supermarket and buy a crate of beer together, for $10. Assume I only have $4, so I pay that and you pay $6. I would then owe you ($6 - $4)/2 = $1

[@iseeicyicetea]

radash but they didn't buy a crate of beer together. they exchanged two crates of beer, one of which costs $600, the other one $1000. however, the whole trade is null and void anyway, because neither of them understood (or could reasonably be expected to understand) the terms of the arrangement. basically: neither of them was buying, so neither of them has to pay.

[@radash]

iseeicyicetea Haha obviously it's void, I was just being facetious because just taking the difference between what people owe is a common mistake to make. I was merely hypothesising another course of action :p One could argue that they were both involved in a sexual encounter that was worth a total of $1600...

[@jimokane5594]

Amazing, you could really believe the awkwardness of the encounter but the end is hilarious.

[@twolonet1118]

i remember watching this like 2-3 years ago... and now ive stumbled across it again! still great film :)

[@n.fer.2596]

Ahhhh this film never gets old!

[@PeteVVest]

Alice from Once Upon a Time in Wonderland.

[@AdiMercury]

I know, she's Sophie Lowe, and that's why I don't like her. The original OUAT is much better.

[@RalphDratman]

The thing you maybe don't understand is that prostitutes ALWAYS ask for the money in advance. So this sort of thing (or a million variations) will not happen. You see, a prostitute would get approximately zero dollars per client if he or she didn't work that way. And the same goes for criminal defense attorneys. Get it (the money, in advance) or forget it.

[@daway212]

Can you attest to your statement to every nation? Apart from that, who cares, I don't think they were aiming for a realistic interpretation, but rather a comedic one.

[@TurgutUnalthereal]

daway212 Yes, this applies to every country.I've been hooking up with prostitutes all around the world if you know what I mean :P

[@TurgutUnalthereal]

Real talk, man.The one who wrote the scenario must be either a Goddamn virgin or a very lucky guy who's been with the girls around himself all the time ,which I think of that the 1st variant is more possible, apparently doesn't know shit about prostitutes lol

[@daway212]

Turgut Unal Ahah possibly, but hey, this short film made it as a finalist so it's doing something right.

[@TurgutUnalthereal]

daway212 Because its main goal is to make people laugh :))

[@sbalogh53]

I am laughing to hard I have tears streaming down my face. Awesome concept. Now I know how to get out of paying for a prostitute. Not that I would do that of course. :)

[@2daMouthG]

or would u?

[@Skillet98]

"My pimp could beat up your pimp..."

[@itudor]

Oh my God! She is flawless!

[@feanaro2712]

That started off kind of adorable and then became absolutely hilarious at the end.

[@iDoPew]

Great work!

[@DonZaloog88]

That guy is one of the main characters from the movie "The Purge". Worth watching o: OH - and Youssef is gay.

[@Slowyaw]

The Purge is a terrible movie.

[@fuckyougoogleplus8667]

Leka Grubi No..it is objectively a terrible movie.

[@YajDrahcirDK]

And both of them are the main characters of the Philosophers AKA After the Dark..

Female: What did you mean someone like me, anyway? What does that mean? Male: Well you're clearly not my usual demographic of clientele, are you? ...... I am male prostitute? Don't usually come by many women. Female: Ahh.. that makes sense. Male: Last night was weird. Female: Yea, it was really weird. *Demographic of clientele: age, gender, etc of customers
