Phil (Jason DeRosse) and his live-in girlfriend Claire (Stacey McGunnigle - usually red-haired but with dark brown hair here) have been together long enough where they have to schedule sex.
One night, while watching television in their pajamas, Phil is ready for some bedroom action but Claire just wants to watch TV and eat junk food (presumably not one of the many products McGunnigle has done a commercial for).
Can't blame Phil for getting turned on. Cutey Claire is wearing sexy leopard print pajamas and looks adorable in between stealing snack-bites and becoming entranced by what is on the screen in front of her. But she isn't feeling romantic for a couple of reasons that she and Phil don't find funny but that everybody else will.
DeRosse and McGunnigle wrote and performed together for many years with Toronto's legendary Second City comedy troupe. But McGunnigle is far better known.
In Canada, McGunnigle became "That woman from the commercial" (A title once held by Nancy Sakovitch, Natalie Brown, then Jennifer Baxter) as she starred in multiple ads on Canadian TV hocking different products (The Source, MIO & Ikea among them) as a shy, adorable but generally clueless character.
In this six-minute production, you can get a sense of why McGunnigle has gone further faster. She has all the star quality DeRosse lacks and she could improve Saturday Night Live or Orange Is The New Black were she to join the respective casts of either show.
