1
00:00:02,314 --> 00:00:04,942
[woman on tape]
Let the life force flow through your...
2
00:00:05,026 --> 00:00:06,110
What you doing?
3
00:00:09,113 --> 00:00:11,949
-I told you he'd be doing something weird.
-Yeah.
4
00:00:12,032 --> 00:00:14,201
Where's Donny? Adam's got big news.
5
00:00:14,285 --> 00:00:17,788
Oh, he left for couples therapy again.
Thanks for helping me up, by the way.
6
00:00:18,831 --> 00:00:20,166
So, what's the big news?
7
00:00:20,249 --> 00:00:23,586
Lowell, I bought a boat. Yeah.
We were leaving the lumberyard,
8
00:00:23,669 --> 00:00:27,089
and some guy was selling his bass boat
real cheap in the parking lot,
9
00:00:27,173 --> 00:00:28,340
so I went for it.
10
00:00:29,008 --> 00:00:31,844
There she is. That's my boat.
11
00:00:33,554 --> 00:00:35,306
How'd you get Andi
to finally let you buy one?
12
00:00:35,389 --> 00:00:38,142
Oh, I used a new strategy:
I didn't tell her.
13
00:00:39,310 --> 00:00:41,145
And you're still married. It's a mystery.
14
00:00:41,896 --> 00:00:43,689
This is the only way it can work.
15
00:00:43,773 --> 00:00:47,651
I've brought up buying a boat in the past,
and Andi always shot me down.
16
00:00:47,735 --> 00:00:53,073
Wives, our beloved life partners,
who take a flamethrower to our dreams.
17
00:00:53,866 --> 00:00:56,285
My problem was,
it was always a hypothetical boat,
18
00:00:56,368 --> 00:00:58,370
so I could never push it
across the finish line.
19
00:00:58,454 --> 00:01:02,500
Now that I've bought a boat,
I'm working from a place of fear.
20
00:01:02,583 --> 00:01:04,877
You see, fear sharpens you.
21
00:01:04,960 --> 00:01:07,296
Like, you can only run so fast.
22
00:01:07,379 --> 00:01:11,050
But when a lion's chasing you,
you can run a little faster.
23
00:01:11,675 --> 00:01:13,677
Not faster than a lion.
24
00:01:16,806 --> 00:01:18,599
The boat's getting delivered Tuesday,
25
00:01:18,682 --> 00:01:21,185
so I have a week to figure out
how to get a yes from Andi.
26
00:01:21,268 --> 00:01:26,273
You need to make Andi think it's her idea.
Wives always love their own ideas.
27
00:01:26,357 --> 00:01:28,400
That's true,
even if they're not good ones.
28
00:01:28,484 --> 00:01:29,944
Like throw pillows.
29
00:01:30,027 --> 00:01:32,530
Who needs a hundred pillows
nobody sleeps on?
30
00:01:32,613 --> 00:01:34,949
Our houses are full of damn pillows.
31
00:01:36,450 --> 00:01:40,496
All right, so all I have to do
is get Andi to suggest a boat.
32
00:01:40,579 --> 00:01:41,664
Then I just agree.
33
00:01:41,747 --> 00:01:45,626
By next week we'll be seasick, sunburned
and peeing in a lake, like God intended.
34
00:01:46,794 --> 00:01:50,297
It'll be like the old days when
I used to rent a boat to take you fishing.
35
00:01:50,381 --> 00:01:52,424
Yeah, but better, because we'll own it.
36
00:01:52,508 --> 00:01:55,010
Yeah. A boat is like a woman.
37
00:01:55,094 --> 00:01:57,221
It doesn't feel right to pay for it
by the hour.
38
00:02:03,060 --> 00:02:06,438
All right, boy.
Look like a guy who really needs a boat.
39
00:02:07,606 --> 00:02:09,900
I know what I'm doing.
I'm gonna walk her right into it.
40
00:02:11,819 --> 00:02:15,322
[sighs] Boy, what a day. Oh!
41
00:02:15,406 --> 00:02:17,616
Aw. Honey, what's wrong? Are you okay?
42
00:02:18,325 --> 00:02:20,703
You know what I am? Stressed!
43
00:02:21,579 --> 00:02:23,414
That's what I am.
44
00:02:23,497 --> 00:02:26,709
Well, I don't like that.
Is there anything I can do?
45
00:02:27,293 --> 00:02:29,253
Well, maybe...
46
00:02:29,962 --> 00:02:34,925
maybe it would help me to relax
if I did something, uh, water-related.
47
00:02:36,218 --> 00:02:40,306
You know, there are certain things a wife
can do to relieve her husband's stress.
48
00:02:42,391 --> 00:02:44,226
Yeah, I know the things, Bev. Thanks.
49
00:02:46,812 --> 00:02:49,023
Uh, hey, if you like the water,
50
00:02:49,106 --> 00:02:51,108
maybe you should take a walk
around the lake.
51
00:02:51,191 --> 00:02:54,862
That's not one of the things,
although you can do mine in a lake.
52
00:02:55,905 --> 00:02:59,783
That's close. Yeah, I like
where you're headed with this lake thing.
53
00:02:59,867 --> 00:03:02,453
You know who's relaxed? Ducks.
54
00:03:05,164 --> 00:03:06,457
What?
55
00:03:06,540 --> 00:03:08,918
Oh. That's right: ducks.
56
00:03:09,001 --> 00:03:13,172
I bet it's because they're on the lake.
That's the key.
57
00:03:14,506 --> 00:03:16,842
So, how do you get a duck's life?
58
00:03:16,926 --> 00:03:18,928
But I like being a person.
59
00:03:20,095 --> 00:03:22,306
How much have you guys had to drink?
60
00:03:24,058 --> 00:03:25,225
Wow.
61
00:03:26,101 --> 00:03:29,146
Sorry we're late. We were making out
in the car like teenagers.
62
00:03:29,229 --> 00:03:30,773
That's right.
We would've gone all the way,
63
00:03:30,856 --> 00:03:33,108
but there's a lot of lookie-loos
walking their dogs.
64
00:03:33,192 --> 00:03:34,610
[Marcy] Mm-hmm.
65
00:03:34,693 --> 00:03:39,531
See how she used her body to relax him?
That's what I was talking about.
66
00:03:39,615 --> 00:03:41,116
Oh, my God!
67
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,827
We were just looking for ways
to help me deal with stress.
68
00:03:43,911 --> 00:03:48,165
You know, fishing around.
It's all hands on deck over here.
69
00:03:49,375 --> 00:03:51,919
Maybe you should try couples therapy.
It's great.
70
00:03:52,002 --> 00:03:55,256
No, that's not what I'm talking about.
Andi, that's not what I'm talking about.
71
00:03:55,839 --> 00:03:58,092
Well, it really changed Don.
72
00:03:58,175 --> 00:04:00,219
Yeah. Turned him into a Bee Gee.
73
00:04:01,011 --> 00:04:03,264
I thought Marcy wouldn't let you wear
that silk shirt.
74
00:04:03,347 --> 00:04:04,682
This is the real me.
75
00:04:04,765 --> 00:04:07,601
Dr. Chuck said that Marcy was wrong
to control my fashion choices.
76
00:04:07,685 --> 00:04:11,313
He's our therapist, and he made me realize
that when Don wears this shirt,
77
00:04:11,397 --> 00:04:14,775
it's not supportive for me to say
that he looks like an unemployed pimp.
78
00:04:16,026 --> 00:04:17,987
Well, Marcy, I think it is so healthy
79
00:04:18,070 --> 00:04:20,864
that you're working on your relationship
with your husband,
80
00:04:20,948 --> 00:04:22,992
the roller-rink deejay.
81
00:04:24,034 --> 00:04:27,329
Well, here's Dr. Chuck's card.
You guys should give it a whirl.
82
00:04:28,455 --> 00:04:31,500
Maybe she's right.
I mean, you might be stressed out
83
00:04:31,583 --> 00:04:33,627
because there's something
bottled up inside you.
84
00:04:33,711 --> 00:04:35,045
Like a ship in a bottle!
85
00:04:38,590 --> 00:04:42,386
No. No, no, no, no. [chuckles]
Therapy is not for guys like me.
86
00:04:42,469 --> 00:04:45,764
It's just a bunch of mumbo jumbo
that doesn't do anything.
87
00:04:46,348 --> 00:04:47,725
Tony Soprano did therapy.
88
00:04:47,808 --> 00:04:49,685
And yet the murdering continued.
89
00:04:51,603 --> 00:04:55,274
You know what might help me relax?
Singing. Yeah.
90
00:04:55,357 --> 00:04:57,401
♪ Row, row, row your... ♪
91
00:04:58,235 --> 00:04:59,403
Take it home, Andi.
92
00:05:11,415 --> 00:05:15,169
That went nowhere. Andi wasn't even close
to suggesting a boat.
93
00:05:15,252 --> 00:05:17,212
She just thinks I got drunk
and want to be a duck.
94
00:05:18,422 --> 00:05:20,424
Marcy was right.
Take her to couples therapy.
95
00:05:20,507 --> 00:05:23,969
No way.
Therapists always agree with the wife.
96
00:05:24,053 --> 00:05:25,971
The first class you take
in shrink school is
97
00:05:26,055 --> 00:05:28,515
"Husbands:
How to Put Their Nuts in a Box."
98
00:05:29,183 --> 00:05:31,018
Dr. Chuck always sides with me.
99
00:05:31,101 --> 00:05:33,812
Until he doesn't,
and then it's boxed nuts.
100
00:05:35,064 --> 00:05:36,857
You don't get it. I met Chuck at the gym.
101
00:05:36,940 --> 00:05:39,818
He's going through a bad divorce,
so he's pretty mad at wives.
102
00:05:39,902 --> 00:05:43,363
When I heard he did couples therapy,
I locked that down.
103
00:05:43,447 --> 00:05:46,825
The best part is,
Don's excited to go to therapy.
104
00:05:47,785 --> 00:05:49,703
I could never get Adam to go.
105
00:05:49,787 --> 00:05:53,499
Well, it's hard for me to open up, too,
but part of the therapy process
106
00:05:53,582 --> 00:05:57,211
is acknowledging that
I'm a flawed human being, and that's okay.
107
00:05:57,294 --> 00:05:59,296
I could've told you that for free.
108
00:06:00,589 --> 00:06:01,590
Anyway.
109
00:06:03,050 --> 00:06:06,512
The thing I like most about therapy
is the honesty.
110
00:06:06,595 --> 00:06:08,097
It's totally rigged.
111
00:06:09,431 --> 00:06:14,311
Dr. Chuck could be your answer, Adam.
I say get on the Chuckwagon.
112
00:06:14,394 --> 00:06:19,066
I'm not paying some quack 150 bucks
to do what I can do myself.
113
00:06:19,149 --> 00:06:20,150
I still have a week.
114
00:06:20,234 --> 00:06:23,779
I'll just use my brains and charisma
to get Andi on board.
115
00:06:24,863 --> 00:06:26,865
So we're not getting a boat.
116
00:06:27,533 --> 00:06:29,326
Don't underestimate me.
117
00:06:29,409 --> 00:06:32,955
Superman can fly.
Batman has the Batmobile.
118
00:06:33,038 --> 00:06:34,748
I can wear a woman down.
119
00:06:36,208 --> 00:06:38,377
There she is.
120
00:06:38,460 --> 00:06:41,755
I saved the last brownie
for my beautiful bride.
121
00:06:42,714 --> 00:06:44,633
What do you want, sex?
122
00:06:45,467 --> 00:06:47,052
No. Well...
123
00:06:47,136 --> 00:06:52,516
No, no. I'm just happy.
This is my idea of a perfect life.
124
00:06:52,599 --> 00:06:53,809
Oh.
125
00:06:53,892 --> 00:06:55,269
The only thing that would make it
more perfect
126
00:06:55,352 --> 00:06:59,523
would be if this couch was,
I don't know, a boat.
127
00:07:00,607 --> 00:07:02,568
That's what this is about?
128
00:07:02,651 --> 00:07:05,195
Oh, man! Can't we just have sex?
129
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:06,780
On a boat? Sure.
130
00:07:06,864 --> 00:07:10,451
Yeah, we could just lay there
and let the water do the work.
131
00:07:10,534 --> 00:07:12,911
Okay, we are not getting a boat.
132
00:07:12,995 --> 00:07:16,874
If you want something expensive
that leaks, let's just get another kid.
133
00:07:18,125 --> 00:07:19,376
I know you're against it,
134
00:07:19,460 --> 00:07:22,004
but when I look out in the driveway
and don't see a boat there,
135
00:07:22,087 --> 00:07:25,048
it makes me wonder
why I'm even on this crazy blue ball!
136
00:07:26,675 --> 00:07:27,676
Too much?
137
00:07:29,344 --> 00:07:31,013
Come on, let's get a boat!
138
00:07:31,096 --> 00:07:33,557
I'll even name it after you. Probably.
139
00:07:35,559 --> 00:07:37,352
-Sorry, honey.
-[sighs]
140
00:07:38,437 --> 00:07:40,731
Okay.
I didn't want to have to do this, but...
141
00:07:40,814 --> 00:07:42,774
Kids, could you come in here, please?
142
00:07:48,780 --> 00:07:51,909
Would you tell Mommy
why you're so sad all the time?
143
00:07:51,992 --> 00:07:53,994
Because we don't have a boat.
144
00:07:54,995 --> 00:07:57,080
Healthy children need fresh air.
145
00:07:57,164 --> 00:07:59,750
I think a boat will keep me away
from all those boys at school.
146
00:07:59,833 --> 00:08:01,460
They only want one thing.
147
00:08:02,753 --> 00:08:04,838
Sorry, honey, you're outnumbered.
148
00:08:04,922 --> 00:08:07,674
I'm off to go shopping
for the SS Maybe Andi.
149
00:08:07,758 --> 00:08:10,052
We are not getting a boat.
150
00:08:12,012 --> 00:08:14,139
Can we still go out for ice cream
even though she said no?
151
00:08:14,223 --> 00:08:16,016
You didn't even sell it.
152
00:08:16,099 --> 00:08:18,977
You were Peter Pan in the school play.
Where was that magic?
153
00:08:19,061 --> 00:08:20,103
[grunts]
154
00:08:22,481 --> 00:08:24,525
You know, the oceans are rising.
155
00:08:24,608 --> 00:08:26,693
-I'm wondering how we're gonna survive--
-No.
156
00:08:26,777 --> 00:08:27,903
[groans]
157
00:08:34,409 --> 00:08:36,161
Dr. Chuck, huh?
158
00:08:36,245 --> 00:08:39,331
Well, you ain't cheatin',
you ain't tryin'.
159
00:08:40,624 --> 00:08:42,709
Honey, I know I'm driving you crazy
with this boat talk,
160
00:08:42,793 --> 00:08:44,545
but I can't help myself.
161
00:08:45,128 --> 00:08:48,340
Maybe you're right.
We need to see Dr. Chuck.
162
00:08:49,841 --> 00:08:51,510
You want to see a therapist?
163
00:08:51,593 --> 00:08:54,471
Well, why not?
He's an impartial third party.
164
00:08:54,555 --> 00:08:58,433
And if he agrees with you,
I will drop this boat idea forever.
165
00:08:59,017 --> 00:09:03,146
Wow. Um, okay. [chuckles]
I'll make an appointment next week.
166
00:09:03,230 --> 00:09:05,649
Sooner's better.
Before Tuesday, for example.
167
00:09:06,191 --> 00:09:08,318
I got to say, Adam, I'm impressed.
168
00:09:08,402 --> 00:09:12,197
I mean, ten years ago, you would've just
bought a boat and then lied about it.
169
00:09:12,281 --> 00:09:14,658
[both laughing]
170
00:09:16,493 --> 00:09:19,079
I can't believe Adam agreed
to go to therapy.
171
00:09:19,162 --> 00:09:21,623
Yeah, he has never been this open-minded.
172
00:09:21,707 --> 00:09:24,543
I might ride this wave
and see if I can get him to try quinoa.
173
00:09:24,626 --> 00:09:25,711
Oh.
174
00:09:25,794 --> 00:09:29,673
I'm making Joe go too. He has issues.
175
00:09:29,756 --> 00:09:32,843
The man goes out to get the paper
in his underwear.
176
00:09:32,926 --> 00:09:34,970
The neighbors had a whole meeting
about it.
177
00:09:36,972 --> 00:09:38,724
Bev, are you meeting Joe's needs?
178
00:09:38,807 --> 00:09:41,977
'Cause there's certain things
a wife can do.
179
00:09:42,686 --> 00:09:44,396
Why do you think he's in his underwear?
180
00:09:45,397 --> 00:09:49,818
All right, let's get going, Bev.
I feel like fish sticks for dinner.
181
00:09:50,485 --> 00:09:52,279
-You want fish sticks, Joe?
-Yeah.
182
00:09:52,362 --> 00:09:54,698
I want a husband who wears pants.
183
00:09:56,533 --> 00:09:59,453
-Is this about me getting the paper again?
-I'm afraid so.
184
00:09:59,536 --> 00:10:02,497
Well, the neighborhood ladies like it.
They had a whole meeting about it.
185
00:10:05,542 --> 00:10:08,295
Okay. Well, uh, I better get going too.
186
00:10:08,378 --> 00:10:11,214
I want to pick the perfect outfit
for therapy.
187
00:10:11,298 --> 00:10:14,968
Something that says I'm willing to work
on my faults, but that I don't have any.
188
00:10:15,052 --> 00:10:17,638
[laughs] Well,
I hope you like it more than I do.
189
00:10:17,721 --> 00:10:19,348
I think I'm gonna stop going.
190
00:10:19,431 --> 00:10:21,600
What happened?
191
00:10:21,683 --> 00:10:24,102
Whenever I bring up something crazy
that Don did,
192
00:10:24,186 --> 00:10:26,021
Dr. Chuck says it's my fault.
193
00:10:26,104 --> 00:10:27,522
-Really?
-Mm-hmm.
194
00:10:28,190 --> 00:10:30,609
Did you tell him about the time
Don said he was going to the car wash
195
00:10:30,692 --> 00:10:32,944
but he really went to Vegas
for the weekend?
196
00:10:33,028 --> 00:10:35,656
My fault because I was smothering him.
197
00:10:35,739 --> 00:10:38,950
What? That doesn't make any sense.
Where did you find this doctor?
198
00:10:39,034 --> 00:10:40,494
Oh, I didn't. Don did.
199
00:10:40,577 --> 00:10:42,287
Don found him?
200
00:10:42,871 --> 00:10:46,124
Yeah. I was proud of him.
He doesn't usually take the initiative.
201
00:10:46,708 --> 00:10:51,338
Oh, my God. Marcy, wake up.
Chuck-- Chuck is a ringer.
202
00:10:51,421 --> 00:10:52,589
What?
203
00:10:52,673 --> 00:10:55,217
Look, Don obviously got some weirdo doctor
204
00:10:55,300 --> 00:10:57,386
to tell you that were wrong
about everything.
205
00:10:57,469 --> 00:11:02,099
I mean, is there any other explanation
for that Motown backup singer shirt?
206
00:11:02,182 --> 00:11:06,061
[gasps] He is so gonna pay.
He wore that thing to church.
207
00:11:07,062 --> 00:11:08,563
In front of God.
208
00:11:09,898 --> 00:11:13,276
And now Adam is working the same scam
to get a boat.
209
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:16,279
-[scoffs]
-Why am I surprised?
210
00:11:16,363 --> 00:11:19,366
He was raised by a man
who wanders the streets in his underpants.
211
00:11:19,449 --> 00:11:21,034
[groans]
212
00:11:23,787 --> 00:11:25,122
This is exciting.
213
00:11:25,872 --> 00:11:28,834
I can't wait to get in there
and hash this all out,
214
00:11:28,917 --> 00:11:31,503
see what Dr. Chuck thinks about the boat.
[chuckles]
215
00:11:32,629 --> 00:11:34,464
Okay. You seem confident.
216
00:11:35,215 --> 00:11:36,842
I believe in science, Andi.
217
00:11:38,135 --> 00:11:42,681
Adam, Andi, I'm Dr. Felicia.
Come on back to my office.
218
00:11:45,809 --> 00:11:47,352
Where's Chuck?
219
00:11:47,936 --> 00:11:49,062
Oh, Chuck wasn't available,
220
00:11:49,146 --> 00:11:51,731
so I made an appointment
with his colleague, Dr. Felicia.
221
00:11:56,862 --> 00:11:58,321
What's wrong?
222
00:11:58,822 --> 00:12:00,115
I don't wanna.
223
00:12:02,492 --> 00:12:05,120
So, I hear we're going to be talking about
a boat today.
224
00:12:05,704 --> 00:12:07,080
I don't wanna.
225
00:12:19,050 --> 00:12:21,303
Chuck's not here. Run!
226
00:12:25,932 --> 00:12:30,061
I still don't understand what happened.
We agreed on Dr. Chuck.
227
00:12:31,229 --> 00:12:33,982
No, we agreed on therapy, which we got,
228
00:12:34,065 --> 00:12:36,818
and I, for one,
am a very satisfied customer.
229
00:12:36,902 --> 00:12:39,154
I already gave her five stars on Yelp.
230
00:12:39,237 --> 00:12:41,156
She is a boat hater.
231
00:12:41,239 --> 00:12:43,825
If we'd gone with Chuck,
I'd be waterskiing right now.
232
00:12:43,909 --> 00:12:45,202
Of course you would.
233
00:12:45,285 --> 00:12:48,163
Because he was a ringer, a phony, a fraud.
234
00:12:49,247 --> 00:12:50,373
You don't know that.
235
00:12:51,166 --> 00:12:52,876
Do you?
236
00:12:52,959 --> 00:12:54,294
How do you know that?
237
00:12:55,128 --> 00:12:57,714
You tried to rig therapy to get a boat.
238
00:12:57,797 --> 00:13:00,133
I tried a whole bunch of things
to get a boat.
239
00:13:00,217 --> 00:13:03,553
And if you had fallen for one of those,
we wouldn't even be here.
240
00:13:04,221 --> 00:13:06,473
Well, I know one thing for sure,
241
00:13:06,556 --> 00:13:11,186
there will never,
ever be a boat in that driveway.
242
00:13:16,858 --> 00:13:19,152
-It's not Tuesday.
-What?
243
00:13:19,236 --> 00:13:21,571
I'm just saying days of the week it's not.
244
00:13:21,655 --> 00:13:22,948
[stammers] You know what?
245
00:13:23,031 --> 00:13:26,910
Honey, I have put you through so much.
Let me take you out to dinner.
246
00:13:26,993 --> 00:13:29,788
Huh? If we sprint,
we can still make happy hour.
247
00:13:30,747 --> 00:13:31,873
Why are we going this way?
248
00:13:31,957 --> 00:13:34,626
We're not going out the back door
like savages.
249
00:13:35,252 --> 00:13:38,296
I want the whole world
to see my beautiful wife.
250
00:13:38,380 --> 00:13:39,589
[chuckles]
251
00:13:40,590 --> 00:13:43,593
Evening, Mr. Burns.
I'm here to drop off your boat.
252
00:13:45,512 --> 00:13:47,556
On second thought, I'd rather eat in.
253
00:13:52,227 --> 00:13:55,355
It's not your fault, sir.
I'm sorry for all the cursing.
254
00:13:56,565 --> 00:13:58,275
She didn't know about the boat.
255
00:13:59,359 --> 00:14:02,612
Yeah, you're the third drop-off this week
where the wife didn't know.
256
00:14:03,446 --> 00:14:04,656
What did those guys do?
257
00:14:04,739 --> 00:14:06,866
I just deliver the boats, man.
258
00:14:11,705 --> 00:14:12,789
Ahoy, Captain.
259
00:14:12,872 --> 00:14:16,042
We brought you champagne
to christen ye new vessel.
260
00:14:16,626 --> 00:14:18,336
Uh, now's not a good time.
261
00:14:18,420 --> 00:14:21,464
I got the boat delivered early
so we could take it out this weekend.
262
00:14:21,548 --> 00:14:23,049
What are you guys fighting about?
263
00:14:24,551 --> 00:14:27,304
-Adam bought a boat after I said no.
-Wrong.
264
00:14:28,221 --> 00:14:30,640
I bought the boat before you said no.
265
00:14:30,724 --> 00:14:33,268
I spent all this time
trying to get you to say yes.
266
00:14:33,351 --> 00:14:34,394
You don't know everything.
267
00:14:35,896 --> 00:14:37,480
Okay, wait a minute.
268
00:14:37,564 --> 00:14:42,319
So all that stuff--
the therapy, the brownie, the kids--
269
00:14:42,402 --> 00:14:44,821
was all because you already bought a boat?
270
00:14:45,697 --> 00:14:48,575
I should've known.
You never save me a brownie.
271
00:14:51,036 --> 00:14:53,496
Okay, yes. I did everything wrong.
272
00:14:53,580 --> 00:14:56,249
But, you know, it just didn't seem fair.
273
00:14:56,333 --> 00:14:58,585
"Can we have a boat?"
I say yes, you say no, so it's a no.
274
00:14:59,252 --> 00:15:02,213
Why is the wife's no
more powerful than the husband's yes?
275
00:15:02,297 --> 00:15:04,716
Because without our no, it's chaos.
276
00:15:04,799 --> 00:15:07,552
A man's life expectancy would be 30
277
00:15:07,636 --> 00:15:10,388
because you'd all drown
in Jacuzzis filled with beer.
278
00:15:11,389 --> 00:15:13,725
Which reminds me,
you also said no to a Jacuzzi.
279
00:15:14,434 --> 00:15:17,646
Hey, marriage is supposed to be 50-50,
right?
280
00:15:17,729 --> 00:15:22,233
No, no, no, no. It's 51-49.
281
00:15:22,317 --> 00:15:24,653
Yeah, the house has the edge,
just like blackjack.
282
00:15:25,278 --> 00:15:27,864
How are you the house? I built the house.
283
00:15:27,948 --> 00:15:30,033
All you did was fill it
with these pillows.
284
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:36,456
Are you saying that my only contribution
to this house is pillows?
285
00:15:40,585 --> 00:15:42,003
I think we've gotten off track.
286
00:15:43,046 --> 00:15:44,839
You're only mad about the boat.
Remember that.
287
00:15:44,923 --> 00:15:47,258
Still in the driveway.
Can you believe I did that?
288
00:15:50,387 --> 00:15:52,013
He bought a boat without telling me.
289
00:15:52,097 --> 00:15:56,142
And then he lied about it. Yeah.
He did that. While we were married.
290
00:15:56,935 --> 00:15:58,186
Get him, Felicia.
291
00:15:59,145 --> 00:16:01,398
Well, you're clearly very passionate
about boats.
292
00:16:01,481 --> 00:16:02,691
In our last session,
293
00:16:02,774 --> 00:16:05,694
you said you had to have one
because boats are "bitchin'."
294
00:16:06,361 --> 00:16:09,030
-I stand by that.
-He stands by it, Felicia.
295
00:16:10,448 --> 00:16:12,117
Okay, look, I know where this is going.
296
00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:14,869
And if it'll save time,
I will put my own nuts in that box.
297
00:16:17,205 --> 00:16:19,457
That's where I keep my father's ashes.
298
00:16:21,584 --> 00:16:23,128
Sorry for your loss.
299
00:16:25,380 --> 00:16:27,841
You know, in many relationships,
there's a lot of gray areas.
300
00:16:27,924 --> 00:16:30,176
But in this situation,
we have the benefit of clarity.
301
00:16:31,011 --> 00:16:33,888
Clinically speaking, Adam,
you're super wrong.
302
00:16:33,972 --> 00:16:35,265
[Adam scoffs]
303
00:16:35,348 --> 00:16:38,643
That is the best 150 bucks I ever spent.
[laughs]
304
00:16:38,727 --> 00:16:40,478
Thanks, Felicia. You've been very helpful.
305
00:16:40,562 --> 00:16:41,896
Hang on. We're not done here.
306
00:16:41,980 --> 00:16:43,857
We've identified the problem,
307
00:16:43,940 --> 00:16:46,317
but now let's see
if there's an underlying cause.
308
00:16:46,401 --> 00:16:49,362
Eh, I'm good with super wrong.
Do you take checks?
309
00:16:49,446 --> 00:16:52,157
There's no money in that account.
I spent it all on the boat.
310
00:16:54,034 --> 00:16:56,828
Adam, you risked
your most important relationship for this,
311
00:16:56,911 --> 00:16:59,330
so there must be
something deeper going on.
312
00:16:59,414 --> 00:17:01,291
When you think about the boat,
what comes to mind?
313
00:17:01,958 --> 00:17:03,293
The boat.
314
00:17:03,877 --> 00:17:06,963
I'm talking about maybe
a special memory or feeling.
315
00:17:07,756 --> 00:17:09,716
Oh. Uh...
316
00:17:11,509 --> 00:17:15,346
I guess I think about my dad
taking me out fishing when I was a kid.
317
00:17:15,430 --> 00:17:17,057
Now we're getting somewhere.
318
00:17:17,140 --> 00:17:19,309
No, we're not. Stay with me, Felicia.
319
00:17:20,226 --> 00:17:22,270
When we were on the boat,
320
00:17:22,854 --> 00:17:26,232
we'd laugh and crack dirty jokes.
321
00:17:26,316 --> 00:17:28,276
He'd let me have a sip of his beer.
322
00:17:29,152 --> 00:17:31,529
Yeah, it was like, for one day,
323
00:17:31,613 --> 00:17:35,533
he stopped barking at me,
and we were pals.
324
00:17:35,617 --> 00:17:38,078
That's very touching, Adam.
325
00:17:38,161 --> 00:17:40,622
I'm glad my dad was in the room
to hear you say that.
326
00:17:42,540 --> 00:17:45,418
So the idea of the boat
is very emotional for you.
327
00:17:46,669 --> 00:17:48,505
Yeah. I guess.
328
00:17:50,090 --> 00:17:52,467
You know, the more I think about it,
329
00:17:52,550 --> 00:17:53,927
when I bought the boat,
330
00:17:54,010 --> 00:17:56,513
I was hoping to have some fun times
like that with our kids.
331
00:17:56,596 --> 00:17:58,389
They're growing up so fast.
332
00:17:58,473 --> 00:18:01,643
Well, that's why I was against the boat.
333
00:18:01,726 --> 00:18:05,522
Time is precious, and I didn't want it
taking you away from the family.
334
00:18:06,397 --> 00:18:09,692
That's the thing I'm realizing.
I didn't want the boat just for me.
335
00:18:09,776 --> 00:18:11,277
I wanted it for us.
336
00:18:12,362 --> 00:18:13,947
I can't believe you never told me that.
337
00:18:14,030 --> 00:18:18,076
I didn't even know that was in there.
It snuck up on me, like a burp.
338
00:18:18,159 --> 00:18:19,661
-Ah.
-[chuckles]
339
00:18:19,744 --> 00:18:21,496
I think I might be deep.
340
00:18:28,878 --> 00:18:31,965
Don, Marcy, come on back. I'm Dr. Felicia.
341
00:18:34,050 --> 00:18:35,343
Where's Chuck?
342
00:18:36,177 --> 00:18:37,470
Chuck can't save you now.
343
00:18:39,013 --> 00:18:40,056
Up you go.
344
00:18:40,807 --> 00:18:42,058
I don't wanna.
345
00:18:48,690 --> 00:18:50,024
Never again.
346
00:18:59,117 --> 00:19:02,412
[sighs] Hey. Back to flannel, huh?
347
00:19:02,996 --> 00:19:05,665
Dr. Felicia was brutal.
She pounded me like a speed bag.
348
00:19:07,333 --> 00:19:09,711
-So you're selling it?
-Yeah, it's for the best.
349
00:19:10,670 --> 00:19:13,131
I learned it wasn't about the boat.
It was about family.
350
00:19:14,257 --> 00:19:16,843
Can't drink beer and pee
off the side of a family, though.
351
00:19:19,012 --> 00:19:21,598
You can take the sign down.
I found a buyer for your boat.
352
00:19:22,182 --> 00:19:23,516
Well, that was fast.
353
00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:25,977
Yeah, it's a lady who wants to buy it
for her husband.
354
00:19:26,060 --> 00:19:30,273
He was professionally diagnosed
as super wrong, but, you know,
355
00:19:30,356 --> 00:19:35,236
now that she understands
why the boat's been a dream of his,
356
00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:37,363
she wants to make it happen.
357
00:19:37,947 --> 00:19:39,032
Oh, Andi.
358
00:19:39,115 --> 00:19:40,742
[both laugh]
359
00:19:40,825 --> 00:19:44,370
Wow! That's almost exactly
what happened to you.
360
00:19:45,163 --> 00:19:46,247
Go home, Don.
361
00:19:47,332 --> 00:19:48,833
It's a crazy world.
362
00:19:53,463 --> 00:19:55,465
Thanks, Dr. Chuck. Great session.
363
00:19:56,799 --> 00:20:01,179
I didn't realize me wanting you
to wear pants was smothering you.
364
00:20:01,262 --> 00:20:02,597
I'm sorry.
365
00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:04,515
I think you're perfect, Bev,
366
00:20:04,599 --> 00:20:08,561
but it might be worth making some changes
since Dr. Chuck said so.
367
00:20:08,645 --> 00:20:09,771
Hmm?
