- [Buck] Funny. Oh, f***in' laugh.

We're entertaining

the sh*t out of you, aren't we?

Stop being responsible

for everyone.

- Why don't you stop

wound-licking, Sondra?

- That's very nice.

Buck.

I lost my wife

and daughter.

And I just can't seem

to get past it. All right?

I'm very sorry.

How did they die?

[Sighs]

They say...

l... I can't

talk about it.

Casey?

I am Casey Heinz.

I am a painter.

I live in a loft, downtown.

And I guess

you could say...

[Voice Breaking]

I'm alienated.

- [Crying, Laughing]

- [Sondra] Can't you ever be serious?

[Buck]

Does a bear poop in the woods?

Sit next to Clark.

And then smoke up a storm?

[Sighs]

My name is Clark.

I'm a lawyer.

And, uh...

I'm an obsessive-compulsive

disorder.

So what's the problem?

The problem is that if you and Buck

are going to smoke in here...

then the door to Dr. Moore's office

must remain open a minimum of 15 inches.

I can't stand the smoke, okay?

[Clark]

And I would also like to suggest

that you buy one of those ashtrays...

that sucks up the smoke

and purifies 'em.

- [Sondra] How come you don't

do anything about this, Bob?

- They cost $9.99...

half of which is

$4.99-point-5.

- He's gonna open the door.

- One of you will pay an extra

penny. You can work that out.

- He's gonna open the door.

- I'm gonna open the door.

You smell like an ashtray.

You know, if you don't

act more serious in group...

- [Sondra] Hi, Richie.

- [Buck] He's back.

- [Casey] He's back.

- [Buck] Next time

you get snot on the doorknob...

- [Sondra] Come sit down here.

- [Bob] Bill.

What would you like to tell us

about yourself?

Well...

I have plenty of problems...

the biggest of which right now is jet

lag, so I think I'll pass for now, Bob.

Fair enough.

[Sondra]

She's like a daughter to me.

We hang out.

Um...

It's wonderful.

Well, that's all

for tonight.

I'll see you all

next week.

[Buck Sighs]

Way to go.

Uh, Bill, I'll be with you

in a couple of minutes, okay?

- [Sondra] Bye.

- [Buck] Coffee, anyone?

- Yeah.

- [Whispering] Nine.

[Group Chattering

Indistinctly]

- Have you read Bob's book?

- No, I haven't.

It's really...

It's quite excellent.

"Way To Go."

- I'm glad to hear you liked it.

- Very much.

- Good.

- Good night, Dr. Capa.

Good night.

- Alone at last.

- You okay?

Well, nobody jumped out the window,

so maybe I'm makin' progress.

[Engine Revving]

- Wanna get a drink?

- Uh-huh.

Wanna go get laid?

No.

So what do you think

of my little group?

- What's Buck's story?

- You mean how did he lose

his wife and kid?

I don't know yet.

He's not talkin' yet. Either.

- What about Casey?

- You tell me.

Well, I smell money.
