00:01As therapists, I think we're all on a hot streak.
00:04Whoa!
00:05What are all your sex boxes at work for, you little freak?
00:07Dress for the job you want.
00:09Wow, you better slow that down.
00:11This is why I hate to come out of my office.
00:14I think that Alice is worried about me.
00:16It's rough to realize your kid knows how fragile you are.
00:19Paul, do not do that!
00:21Why are you so strong?
00:22I'm not fragile.
00:27Why don't you try and stick to conventional therapy?
00:29Try and be normal.
00:30You're not gonna start jimmying me?
00:32Sorry, jimmying you?
00:33You know, that weird therapy you do outside of the office that Paul hates?
00:36Jimmying, though, huh?
00:37Dear God.
00:38I like that.
00:39And that's our time.
00:42Let's just say it sounds like a move, mentor.
00:48It's not your patient's job to heal you.
00:52Push my husband off a cliff.
00:54I'm a psycho with good hair.
00:56I like the good hair part.
00:57Look who's self-esteem is back.
00:59I can't stop thinking he's gonna go back to the way he was after mom died.
01:03If you don't truly deal with your past, it's gonna come back for you.
01:08And then, boom.
01:11You okay?
01:12You have a bad dream?
01:14That's how I clear my throat.
01:16There we go.
01:20You can't spend your life hiding from your fear.
01:22Instead of running from it, say, bring it on.
01:27That's it?
01:28You want me to pull my pants down and make my ass clap?
01:31How much do you pay him?
01:33Nothing.
01:34Yeah, that sounds about right.
01:37We all hope that we're the kind of person who's gonna come through.
01:41Something changed a few months ago.
01:43Felt like I got my dad back.
01:47You might argue, I don't have enough boundaries.
01:49You might argue, I don't have enough boundaries.
01:51Well, maybe you have too damn many.
01:52And we should be working together.
01:54Like Batman and Robin.
01:55You can even be Batman.
02:00You already sound like him.
02:01I'm gonna make you pay for that.
02:03That's exactly what Batman would say.
02:11How are you and Alice doing?
02:12We are doing great. Everything is back to normal.
02:16Dad? Who is this weird guy?
02:18That's my patient, darling.
02:19Who doesn't really want to be here because his issues stem from high school.
02:23Everyone's issues stem from high school, Dan.
