The One With St. Elmo’s Sex Tape

Date: 5/21/2024

Aunt Buggy has come over for her birthday (which she’s supposed to do in real life) and is sitting on my couch. I see that she has dozens of bags, suitcases, and piles of clothes all over the living room and realize these are for her trip to New Jersey. Somehow unfazed by the number of things she’s bringing, I notice a small, pink suitcase. I’m immediately suspicious that this belongs to Aunt Marni and that she must be going on the trip too. I start making snide remarks, then notice a baby bathing suit and start making jokes about Aunt Buggy dating a little person … I’m in a small house I don’t recognize with Jon and Andie McQuitty — who are both apparently married to different people (in the dream, I vaguely remember that Jon is married to Mel and Andie is married to Caleb) — when Jon, who’s sitting on the couch flipping through the channels on the TV, asks if we should watch St. Elmo’s Fire. Andie and I both agree that there’s too much nudity in this (I can’t remember is there’s actual nudity in real life) as I go into the kitchen to wash my hands. Jon ends up putting something on. I come in, expecting St. Elmo’s Fire to be on but realize that it’s a home video of Erika and Joseph. As they talk, I remember that they’ve just broken up (in real life). I see him kiss her and suddenly panic, realizing this must be some sort of sex tape. I spring to my feet and say something about how we should really change the channel.
