They're decorative

INT. KITCHEN - NIGHT

Stinky cheese, bread and two wine glasses on the counter. Pan up to a MAN and a WOMAN pull apart after sharing their first kiss. Something breaks free, and they seize each other. He's working on her top button for far too long. Furtive, funny, erotic.

HIM
I can't get these undone.

HER
They're decorative.

HIM
They're buttons. Why would you have buttons where no buttons are needed?

HER
Like I said, they're decorative.

HIM
How long were you going to let me work on them before saying something?
