thing once,

but it was more of a joke

than anything else.

A threesome?

Don't look at me that way.

Everybody was doing it.

You shouldn't

tell me sh*t like that.

Maybe you should try it.

Loosen up a little.

- Ha ha!

- What do you think?

They're a size eight.

Should I buy them as a reward?

How do you know

you'll be that small?

Dr. Crane said so.

Can you believe it?

I'm finally gonna get rid

of my gut!

I don't understand.

Nobody sees you naked anyway.

Will you take care of Annie

while I'm in the hospital?

- I thought it was out-patient.

- It is,

but I won't be well enough

to do anything for two days.

So that's how long she'd stay

with you. Is that okay?

It's a lot with two kids, Mom.

Can't Elizabeth do it?

You have no job

and Maddy has a ton

of play dates.

Okay, I'll do it.

Don't expect me to do it

with joy all over me.

I won't.

It's a lot, that's all.

You mean Annie's a lot.

Mom, I'll do it,

okay?

- What's it for?

- The hell of it.

- You're so sweet.

- No, I'm not. I'm regifting.

It has self-esteem

and tranquility or something.

I'm so happy

for it.

No, jerk, you burn it

and it helps you have

self-esteem and tranquility.

- Should I be offended?

- Hell no.

I have them burning

all over my house.

Listen,

I have good news.

They want you back

on Riot Act.

I can't believe it.

I didn't think I did that well.

Well enough, obviously.

They want you to meet with Kevin.

- You're kidding me?

- No.

- Oh my God.

- This would be the best break.

I'll never get it.

They want to see

the two of you together.

You mean he wants

to read with me?

Yeah, but mostly

to see if you guys are...

you know, hot together.

It's a chemistry read.

Don't look at me.

I think he's gross.

Maddy:
Mom.

- What?

- Come read with me.

Come watch Hickory Dog.

- Hi.

- Hi.

How was work?

Where's Maddy?

Reading in her room.

Come sit with me.

- What are you watching?

- Hickory Dog.

We haven't had sex

in so long.

It hasn't been

that long.

Yes it has.

Donna says, how often

do you guys have sex?

I'm too embarrassed

to tell her the truth.

Why does Donna want to know

how often we have sex?

Just talking.

So you want to have sex

so that you could have

a good answer for Donna?

Why do you have to be

such a prick?

I don't understand.

Are you saying

that you want to have sex

with me, that you miss it?

Or are you accusing me

of something?

Because that's what

it feels like.

How could you?

- I don't understand.

- Paul:
Is that him?

Yeah.

Do you think he's sexy?

He's a movie star,

everyone thinks he's sexy.

I think he's repellent.

So does my agent.

Don't tickle.

- I'm not.

- That tickles.
