Carol, oh Carol! The 1969 movie Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice explored the topics of faithfulness and honesty in marriage, and at the conclusion it showed a more free-spirited couple trying to switch wives with their more traditional friends. The stakes suddenly seem a little higher when you learn that Natalie Wood, the sexy woman in a paisley bikini, is involved. Wood portrayed Carol, a woman who had made up her mind to tell her husband Bob (Robert Culp) everything, even about their extramarital affairs. Ted (Elliott Gould) and Alice (Dyan Cannon) weren’t too fond of the concept, but Alice demands to switch partners in one of those real-life movie-world intellectual exchanges. It works for a little while before failing.
For Years My Neighbor Comes Home for 15 Minutes in the Middle of the Day — I Finally Dared to Take a Peek
As I hurried to my front door, I realized that I only had fifteen minutes left. I quickly headed toward the open window as soon as I thought no one was watching. I was happy that no neighbors were observing when I peered over the windowsill.
Their living area was same to all others. Mike faced away from me while holding a high-end camera. With a subtle smile, Jill turned to face him. My attention was drawn to a brief glimpse of motion near the room’s edge. Mike had my whole attention. His wife yelled, “Someone’s there!,” as our eyes locked, and I lost my breath. There’s someone looking inside!
No, no, no! I pondered. This is not possible!
With my heart racing, I hurried back to my house and secured the door. What was going through my mind? I peeked inside their house, but why? Had I caused them any offense? I thought they were going to call the cops.
The quiet was broken the following day by a knock on my door. Taking a glance through the peephole made my stomach turn. It was Mike. He pulled out a picture from an envelope he was holding. My picture. “Want to elaborate?” he inquired, seeming amused.
I admitted, embarrassed. To my astonishment, Mike grinned and extended an invitation to visit, stating that he loves Jill by taking her picture every day. I treasured their endearing custom and never looked out the window again after that day.
