Una moglie vuota e volgare

Neanche Wally e Kimberly sembrano molto contenti della compagnia, ma per le peggiori ragioni: Wally perché a parte Aileen e Christie Swoonie (che lo detesta) non ci sono ancora molte donne attraenti su cui allungare i suoi occhi morbosi, Kimberly perché a parte i padroni di casa, Christie e i due Bertrand non c’è ancora abbastanza gente ricca e famosa da eccitare la sua attenzione. Infatti continua a scorrere il pollice sullo schermo del suo cellulare gigante, puntellata su gomito e avambraccio: sguardo torpido, linee ultra-marcate di eyeliner, capelli sbiondati e montati a forza, zigomi pompati, labbra come canotti pneumatici, camicetta sbottonata per mettere in mostra le tette spinte in su dal reggiseno push-up, collana di perle giganti che le ha regalato il maritino per farsi perdonare qualche mascalzonata. Solo Wally Thompson poteva sposarsi una donna così vuota e volgare, che al momento del matrimonio corrispondeva in pieno alle sue più squallide fantasie erotiche adolescenziali.
