Act 1: The Party
The scene opens on a lively house party. Two couples, Jack and Jill, and Tom and Mary are chatting and laughing together. As the night goes on, the conversation turns to the topic of swinging.
Tom: “Have you guys ever considered swinging?”
Jill: “What do you mean?”
Tom: “You know, swapping partners for a night.”
Jack: “I don’t know, man. That seems pretty risky.”
Mary: “I think it could be fun. What do you think, Jill?”
Jill looks hesitant but intrigued.
Jill: “I don’t know. It’s not something I’ve ever thought about before.”
Tom: “Well, why don’t we all just give it a try? We’re all consenting adults here.”
Jack and Jill exchange a nervous glance but ultimately agree to give it a shot.
Act 2: The Swap
The scene cuts to the four of them in a bedroom together. There’s an awkward tension in the air as they undress and get into bed with their new partners. As they start to explore each other’s bodies, things quickly become heated.
But as the night wears on, both couples start to realize that this isn’t what they wanted after all. They miss their own partners and feel guilty for betraying them. They quickly get dressed and leave the party without saying goodbye to anyone.
Act 3: The Aftermath
The final scene shows Jack and Jill sitting on their couch together, looking sad and distant.
Jack: “I’m sorry we did that.”
Jill: “Me too. I don’t know what came over us.”
Jack: “I think we just got caught up in the moment.”
Jill: “But it wasn’t worth it. I love you too much to risk losing you.”
Jack takes her hand.
And with that, the play ends.
Jack: “I love you too. Let’s never do anything like that again.”
