Borisz zseni és embergyűlölő. Miután elhagyja feleségét, öngyilkossági kísérlete pedig kudarcba fullad, a véletlen hozza össze a jóval fiatalabb Melodie-val, akivel semmi perc alatt összeházasodik. Aztán megjelenik a lány anyja – majd az apja –, és minden megváltozik…

Londonna
– Boris, what would you say if l was to say that l was developing a little crush on you?
– l'd say don't.
– Why?
– Because anything deeper, more significant between us, is out of the question.
– Because why?
– Because it's too preposterous to even dignity with an answer.
– lt is?
– Every single thing is against it. Our ages, our backgrounds, our brains, our interests. Not to mention, l have no desire to have a relationship with a woman, any woman, nor any urge to make love, nor any desire to be anything but isolated from the world. And, you know, you're a beautiful girl who should be meeting normal healthy men and going out.
– Yeah, but l don't like normal healthy men. l like you.
Londonna
– Let me teach you something about love. Okay? Naturally, there are exceptions to what l'm going to say, but they're the exception, not the rule. Love, despite what they tell you, does not conquer all. Nor does it even usually last. ln the end, the romantic aspirations of our youth are reduced to whatever works.
Londonna
– Unbelievable. The chance factor in life is mind-boggling. You entered the world by a random event somewhere along the Mississippi. l, having emerged through the conjoining of Sam and Yetta Yellnikoff in the Bronx, decades earlier. And through an astronomical concatenation of circumstances, our paths cross. Two runaways in the vast, black, unspeakably violent and indifferent universe.
Londonna
– She's cheerful, not demanding. Okay, not as briIIiant as Jessica, but not as ambitious and predatoct, either. Jessica's problem was she made up in ego what she lacked in superego. But not Melody. She Iikes being a nanny. She's happy with other peopIe's kids, so mercifully she doesn't bother me about having our own.
Londonna
– To mingle with all those sub-mentals on bicycles? lt's like driving a car. Those hostile, belligerent morons all get driver's licenses. Of course, to have children, you don't need a license. No proof of anything. You need a license to fish. You need a license to be a barber. You need a license to sell hot dogs. You know, you read about these poor kids, beaten and starved, you wonder, why are these parents allowed to even have them?
Londonna
– God is gay.
– He can't be. He made the whole universe perfect. The oceans, the skies, the beautiful flowers, the trees everywhere.
– That's right. He's a decorator.
