You shoot a close up of something and pull out from it to show the wide shots, plus you get some isolated cutaway shots, like say the fireplace nearby, or a pelican watching the scene if you are filming outdoors or a vase of flowers on the mantle nearby, to tie things together just in case. And don't forget the "fip", or fake internal pop, in a softcore version of a hardcore or simulated boy-girl scene.
