- I'm serious.

I could use a second opinion. Come on.

- No, look, Bob...

This is my friend and colleague,

Bill Capa, from New York.

Why don't you sit over there, Bill?

I thought it might be interesting

for you and for him...

if he sat in

on one of our sessions.

What kind of a shrink

are you?

I'm a behaviorist.

- Qualifications?

- Same as Bob.

We went to college together.

Then we fought the battle of Penn State

Mental Hospital as interns.

- No one's going to be offended

if you want to say no.

- No, Bob.

- Nobod... Nobody wants to say no.

- Oh, Jesus.

- I'm Sondra. How are you, Bill?

- Fine, thank you, Sondra.

- Medical degree?

- No. I'm a psychologist...

and a psychoanalyst,

not a psychiatrist.

The Ph.D. Is from NYU.

- Okay, thank you. That's fine.

- So it's Bill and Bob. Therapy a deux.

- Really.

- Why don't we begin...

by introducing ourselves and

then saying as much or as little

about why we're here...

- [Door Closing, Indistinct Comments]

- As we're comfortable with.

- Name's Buck.

- [Sondra] Oh, that's helpful.

Very macho of you.

That's an

anti-gender remark.

Sondra? Sondra,

why don't you start us off?

[Nervous Laugh]

Okay.

Um...

My name is Sondra Dorio.

[Laughs]

And, uh...

I always marry older men, but...

I'm single now...

[Laughs]

...and I keep, uh...

Well, l...

I want sex

all the time.

But I mean,

I really do...

want a real relationship.

And, um, sometimes...

l-I steal things.

[Chuckles]

I mean, they're little things.

Doesn't make any sense. It's hard to...

You know, l... Is that okay?

- Thank you.

- Thanks.

- [Bob] Richie?

- This will be an event.

Richie!

What?

Would you like to tell Bill

a little something about yourself?

No.

Okay. Nobody else

is going to do it. I will.

Richie has

a gender identity problem...

and a social phobia...

- and he's promised the group not

to wear the Walkman in group...

- [Buck] Thank you, Dr. Clark.

- To lay the inventory on.

- Oh, St. Christopher rattles his chains.

- St. Michael, sir.

- This is not about you!

You're right.

You know what I'm saying?

L-l-I'll open

my-my mouth...

to talk...

b-but nothing h-happens.

Except for when l...

when I do drugs.

L-I c-can't talk...

so that's...

how come I'm here.

Th-They say that l-l...

That I blush too.

Y-You c-can say that again.

F*** you!

[Screaming]

F***! F*** you!

I'll tear your

f***in' head off!

- You f***in' cocksucker!

- Get up!

Get the f***

off me!

- Buck.

- Richie!

It's all right.

He'll come back.

- [Buck] What do you think, Dr. Clark?

- Was it something I said?

- [Laughing]

- You are an a**hole.

- You know, guys, a little humanity.
