Post by bunniefuu »

[TOMMY] Bob Guccione,
he's got the tape.

All I know is, we're suing
the sh*t out of him.

Suing him for what?

He's do anything to stick it to Hef.

Tommy's absolutely right.

If he's not planning to do
anything and we sue,

he could suddenly decide
to do it to get back at us.

Nobody's robbing Bob Guccione

of his God-given right
to free expression.

It was the right move.

He was gonna do it
whether we sued or not.

Don't... just shut up.
Shut up. Shut up!

"Counsel for defendants
will take the deposition

of Pamela Anderson Lee."

Why... why is it just me?

I don't know why they need
to talk to either of us.

We're the f*cking plaintiffs.

Doesn't matter. We're in this together.

Shall we resume?

Yeah.

You told us you met
your husband, Thomas Lee Bass,

on or around December , .

That's correct.

And what were the
circumstances of that meeting?

I was socializing with friends.

And where were you socializing?

At a club in Los Angeles.

Did you know anything at all

about Mr. Lee before you met him?

Like everyone in America,

I knew he was the drummer
for Motley Crue.

And when Mr. Lee
approached you at the club,

did you find him attractive?

I liked his smile.

I still do. Thank you.

Were you aware of his reputation

as someone who engaged
in the services of prostitutes?

Tommy didn't pay women for sex.

So he never had sexual
relations with prostitutes?

Well, a prost*tute, by definition,

is somebody who gets paid for sex.

So I'm not sure that works.

- Mrs. Lee.
- [PAM] Yes.

Have you ever
been paid for sex?

- No.
- Hmm.

Do you need a moment
to reflect on that question?

That's something I would remember.

So you've never received
money for performing a sex act?

- No.
- Objection.

Asked and answered.

Would that mean you don't
consider posing naked

for a camera to be a sex act?

[BRUCE] Did you pose

October ' , February ' ,

July ' , August ' ,

November ' , and January of this year.

- They clearly like you.
- And I them.

On that, you have, in interviews,

described your relationship
with Hugh Hefner

as "like a father to
me" and that you are

"very close, I consider him
a great friend."

Do you concur with these statements?

I do, yes.

Do you know who Bob Guccione is?

[CHUCKLES]

[BRUCE] Something funny, Mrs. Lee?

Not at all.

Then could you answer
my question, please?

Bob Guccione is the
founder and publisher

of Penthouse magazine.

As a "close friend" of Mr. Hefner's,

you must be aware of Mr. Guccione

and Mr. Hefner's strong mutual

dislike of one another, hmm?

Yes, I am.

[BRUCE] If Mr. Hefner discovered
that you had engaged

in a business transaction
with Mr. Guccione,

he would probably regard that
as a betrayal, no?

Probably, yes.

So therefore, if you
wanted to expose yourself,

no pun intended, to Penthouse's readers

without jeopardizing your
good standing at Playboy,


might one way to do so

be to slip your materials
to Mr. Guccione,

say, under the guise of a leaked tape?

I wouldn't do something like that.

Well, isn't it true that for
the past three Playboy covers,

you have received a
near negligible increase

- in compensation?
- No.

No, you haven't received
a near negligible

increase in compensation?

No, Mr. Hefner and I,

we've negotiated a... Before each sh**t,

a mutually agreed-upon figure
we're both happy with.

Can you think of any financial benefits

that you might stand
to reap from Penthouse

being given a copy of a tape

containing p*rn
images of yourself?

None whatsoever.

Then perhaps you can provide
a reason as to why

you and Mr. Lee
would make a p*rn tape

if it wasn't, like all of your
other p*rn activities,

for the purpose of financial gain.
