What If “My Fair Lady” Was Reversed?
Professor Henrietta Higgins takes on Elliot Doolittle.
Professor Henrietta Higgins and her assistant, Joanna Holland, sit on the couch in a well designed room, discussing men, and why they can’t seem to find a good one.
“You know Joanna, It may be that we’re too picky. I sometimes feel that I’ll never find the right man unless I invent him myself,” Henrietta intones.
She pours them both a glass of wine, and returns to the couch. Joanna laughs but appears deep in thought. “Henrietta, why not?”
“Why not what, my dear?” Henrietta asks.
“Why not invent or create your own? Let’s go on the dating sites again, pick out the most pitiful guy, one in need of a major overhaul, and recreate him just for you. If it works, you can do one for me,” Joanna answers.
“Hmmmmm…,” Henrietta muses.
They dive into dating sites, each holding up their phone to show the other the worst one they find. There’s a large pool to draw from. Finally, they simultaneously hold up the same one. Bingo.
