gozerMan, I always get thrown out of television shows when someone who obviously doesn't belong in a Life Drawing class (Life Drawing = nude model) waltzes in off the street without anyone demanding to know why they're there, and subsequently asking them to leave. Leave NOW. Especially someone who comes in and stares at the nude model.
This behavior is considered incredibly disrespectful. You do everything you can to let your models know they're not being exploited sexually and that you respect them and appreciate what they're doing for you -- every goddamn for-reals art student or artist knows this or *should* know this. And can you imagine how many people would wander into art classes to cop a free eyeful if this sort of thing wasn't carefully policed by whoever was running the class?
I don't care how attractive you are, you just do not come in in your suit and tie, reeking of privilege and power, make eye contact and ogle the model with a flirty smile on your lips while she's doing her job. She's not a Hooters waitress (no disrespect meant to Hooters waitresses, it's just that that's a large part of that job, and if you don't like it, you don't become a Hooters waitress.)
That scene pissed me off and made me dislike Neal quite a bit, which I do not think the writers meant to happen.
