Dear Reader:
Slightly milder than my other stories, but still laced with the casual misogyny decent men and women should only fantasize about.
It's nonconsensual, and there's some mother-daughter incest at the end. Skip the story if that's not your thing.
Otherwise, enjoy!
Adam

SCENE 1
[Setting: A spacious, upper-middle class kitchen—expensive refrigerator, dishwasher, wine cabinet, pasta-maker, the works.]
[At a tall island right of center, SUE sits on a wooden stool, sipping morning coffee. She is early 40s, tall, with lustrous black hair, olive skin, and beautifully manicured scarlet fingernails. A plush red bathrobe barely contains her fit but voluptuous frame.]
[NIKKY walks in from stage right. She is 18 and resembles SUE, although rounder in the face. She wears boxers and a loose-fitting sweatshirt from Sarah Lawrence college that cannot hide her ample breasts. She has her arms wrapped tightly around her body.]
Nikky [eyes downcast]: Mom.
Sue: Nikky, baby. I didn't hear you get in last night. Welcome home from college.
Nikky [wanly]: Thanks, Mom. I got home late.
Sue: I wish you'd checked in. It's a long drive from college.
Nikky: Todd was up.
Sue: Oh, right. He did say he was going to be up late. I'm glad someone was here for you.
Nikky [sobs, then runs toward SUE]: Mom, mom, mom—
Sue: Baby, what's wrong? [Hugs NIKKY.] You're crying! What's happened?
Nikky: Mom, it was Todd. Last night. After I got home. He came into my room.
Sue: Your stepfather? Your room? What happened?
Nikky: I was asleep. Just, you know, asleep. But then I wasn't asleep. Something woke me up. It was a . . . feeling.
Sue: A feeling?
Nikky: Yeah. He, um. I woke up. Todd was in bed. He was touching me. You know . . . down there . . . .
Sue: Nikky . . . what are you telling me?
Nikky: He raped me, Mom! Todd, your husband, he raped me!
Sue: My God . . . okay. Okay, baby. I believe you. Let's call the cops.
SCENE 2
[Setting: The kitchen, later that morning. SUE and NIKKY hold each other at stage right. TODD sits on a stool at the island. He is slender, pale, middle-aged, medium build, slightly flabby. Stage left are FEMALE COP and MALE COP.]
Todd: No, I didn't molest her. She came home, she went to sleep, and I went to sleep.
Female Cop: In her bed.
Todd: No, in my own bed. I went to sleep in my own bed.
Male Cop: But first you visited her bed, right?
Todd. No. She went to sleep. I showered, then went to bed.
Female Cop: Showered? You just said she went to sleep, then you went to sleep. You didn't say anything about showering.
Todd: What difference does that make? She went to bed, I showered, then I went to bed—
Male Cop: Showered to get her scent off you? So your wife couldn't tell you'd been dipping it in her daughter?
[NIKKY sobs into SUE's neck.]
Sue: Officer, please.
Male Cop: Sorry, ma'am. Just rattling the perv.
Todd: I'm no pervert! [to SUE]: Tell them, Sue! Tell them I wouldn't do this!
Sue: I don't know, Todd. It would explain a lot. Like, why you've been asking me to dress up in Nikky's clothes.
Nikky: What?
Todd [warning]: Sue, don't.
Sue: I thought we were just spicing things up. Putting my hair in pigtails. Having me call you "Daddy." Making me pretend your . . . thing . . . was a tasty lollipop.
Nikky: Mom? What?
Sue: And thanking you for sending "me" to college. . . .
Nikky: Oh my God!
Todd: Sue, shut UP!
Female Cop [to MALE COP]: I think we've heard enough.
Male Cop: Get up, Sir. Please come to the station.
Todd [rushes at SUE]: You BITCH!
[SUE roundhouse kicks TODD in the stomach. He flies back into the island, then falls to the floor. The COPS roughly pull him up and handcuff him.]
Female Cop: Like a mule, ma'am. Well done.
Male Cop: Yes, indeed. No less than this piece of crap deserves.
Todd [spitting]: You're my wife! My stepdaughter! I'm slaving to pay for that goddamned college!
Sue: That doesn't mean you get to sleep with her!
Nikky: You don't own us!
Todd: Dammit, I love both of—aaaagggghhhhhhhh! [FEMALE COP wrenches TODD's arm, hard.]
Female Cop: Shut it, punk.
Male Cop: Someone obviously didn't get the message.
Female Cop: You mean, "The radical notion that women are people"?
Male Cop: That's the one.
Nikky [delighted]: I've got that tattooed at the base of my spine!
Todd [to COPS]: Fuck you! Fuck you! This is my family! I love them!
Sue: Monsters don't have family, Todd. Officers, please get this . . . thing out of here.
Todd [rages at MALE COP]: Traitor! Gender traitor! You can't—
[FEMALE COP bashes TODD on the head, then muffles him with a ball gag.]
Male Cop: Get used to that, bubba. Where you're going, your mouth's gonna be full a lot.
[TODD struggles. The COPS push him outside. SUE and NIKKY run to the door.]
Sue: Don't be too nice when you put him into the patrol car!
Nikky: Don't protect his head!
[Sound of a car driving off. NIKKY and SUE close the door.]
Nikky: Holy crap, Mom. I can't believe you did that.
Sue: The kick? I've been at the gym—
Nikky: No, Mom. The play-acting. During sex. You did all that?
Sue [takes Nikky's hands]: I'm sorry baby. I never thought it would go so far. Can you ever forgive me?
Nikky [hugs SUE]: It's okay, Mom. You taught me what men are like. They're weak.
Sue: That's right, baby. Sisterhood is powerful. You're my daughter, but we're sisters in spirit.
Nikky: That's right! [Looks around.] This is Todd's house. But it's full of horror. We need to cleanse it.
