to a vagina after 18 years?

I think Werner Herzog

did a documentary on that.

Yeah. It's called

The Cave of Forgotten Dreams.

Okay! Will you stop it?

Moving on.

Let's talk about the book.

Oh, God. The hiking book?

Really?

Come on! I liked it!

It's such a remarkable

undertaking. Can you imagine?

No, I cannot. I don't even

like walking to my mailbox.

It's just an amazing story.

So many layers. I wouldn't

even know how to break it down.

I'll break it down for you.

She hikes, she lost her boot,

she did heroin.

Did you only read

the back cover?

[Vivian gulps] I wish.

I kept wanting

to shout at her,

"Oh, wait ten years, honey.

Dry shampoo is coming."

If you would ever

connect with something

on a more emotional level...

Emotional connection

is highly overrated.

You have not had an emotional

connection for 40 years.

Wow, that must be

some type of record.

Yeah, but what happens

to emotions after 40 years?

Okay, okay,

are you guys having fun?

Oh, come on.

You know we love you.

Maybe it's time

you did take a hike

and try to reconnect

with your own true self.

I'll buy you a backpack.

I'll tell you how to reconnect

with your own true self,

and it ain't by walking alone

through the desert.

I would like to introduce you

to Christian Grey.

Oh...

Oh, no.

[Vivian] It was a bestseller

made into a movie.

- That is our theme this year.

- Oh, wow.

We are not reading this.

[Vivian] It's my month!

When it's your month,

you can choose whatever

boring, depressing book

you want.

I'm not sure

this qualifies as a book.

Well, 50 million people

can't be wrong.

To... To even be holding

this book is embarrassing.

Who's judging you, your cat?

I do like the idea

of a romance.

We are too old!

[Carol] But it says right here

"for mature audiences."

Yeah, that certainly

sounds like us.

We started this book club

to stimulate our minds.

Well, from what I hear, this

book is quite stimulating.

Oh, God.

So... come on!

- Let's toast to our new book.

- [Carol] All right.

- Oh, good.

- Drink up. Hoist that glass.

- [Carol] Yeah.

- Happy reading, ladies!

[whispers] Oh...

[grunts] Oh, God.

[sighs] Okay.

Oh, my... [groans]

[groans] Oh, I didn't...

I'm really so terribly...

I'm so sorry.

I... I...

[Diane laughs softly]

- You need some help?

- I'm sorry. No, I'm fine.

I really didn't mean

to disturb you.

- Too late.

- I know, I know.

Wow. [exhales]

It's...

This is so humiliating.

[sighs]

- Are you okay?

- I'm...

- I'm really scared of flying.

- You shouldn't be.

Oh, yeah, well,

I won't be once these...

kick into my bloodstream.

The safest way to travel.

- You want to know why you think that?
