I know, I know
we shouldn't have been seeing an "R" rated movie
but lets move on from that for now
Our parents were at a wedding reception,
we were in the middle of nowhere, and Isabel and I had nothing to do
so we decided to go see a movie
Kingsman: The Secret Service
and we didn't tell our parents
After I paid for my ticket and properly showed them my drivers license,
I continued towards the theatre
But I was stopped by my twin sister, Isabel
"What do we do? I don't have my drivers license with me!"
Annoyance filled my thoughts
I've lost track how many times she has forgotten her wallet
Then I remembered that to other people we look exactly alike,
so I just gave her my drivers license and my debit card
Plan A
A few minutes later we were in line to enter the theater with no problems
but then we almost reached the man ripping up tickets
there was only one person in front of us when I quickly realized Isabel still had my license
She stealthily handed it to me and I turned to hand the man my license
he handed back my license and ticket and I felt like I just made it through airport security
but Isabel didn't
she gave me a look of panic then turned back to the man,
"License please", he said in a grumpy voice
"Uh, I don't have mine with me."
"Sorry I can't let you in without proof that your seventeen"
Plan B
We tried showing him that we were obviously twins, but even when he said he could tell we were twins, he wouldn't let us through
Isabel and I stepped aside to let other people through as we though of a game plan
Plan C
Skyward, the golden ticket
It was simple we would show him Isabel's skyward account
and he would see that she was clearly 17
we walked up to him with confidence
and showed him her account
But then he just said that we could have made up that account in the last few minutes
so he still couldn't have let us in
at this point I was just annoyed and mad at myself for choosing to see this movie
and mad at this guy for not letting us through
Plan D
Hold up the line and complain until he let us through
"Well what are we supposed to do? I already paid for our tickets."
then he replied
"How did you pay for your tickets? They shouldn't have let you buy them."
That was it. I knew we were caught
My heart was beating so hard I swear he could see it
So to make things better
I lied
Now I could barely hear past my heart
"Well the guy we bought our tickets from saw that we were twins."
He eyed me with skepticism and told me that was illegal for them to allow that
So I played dumb
"Oh I didn't know that, sorry."
by now there was a decent line behind us
"Pleas let us through. I already paid for the tickets and I'm sorry my sister forgot her license."
I spoke in a annoyed and stressed out tone
The man was clearly warn out by us then reluctantly said,
"Ok, you can go, but you have to have your license next time."
"Thank you"
and we finally walked past him
After we sat down the first twenty minutes I was afraid he was going to change his mind and come in to the theatre and kick us out
every time someone would walk in I would have a mini heart attack
at the end when we walked out of the movie
I walked out disappointed
we haven't seen an "R" rated movie at the movie theaters since
We definitely learned our lesson
Don't see an R rated movie at the movie theaters
