10%! Oh, no! No!

Aleya!

- Aleya!

- That's crazy!

Yeah, you can thank your Uncle Terry

for this silly thing.

It's kind of cool.

Wait, what are we doing in here?

You know what I look like already.

I want to get it for Mom.

Sweetheart, I don't know if

that's such a good idea.

What if I told you,

Mom and George are on the rocks

and she might need to bounce back?

- Did they? I mean are they?

- No,

but I know she and George

are dying to read it.

Look here, sweetheart,

if your mom wanted

to read the book so bad,

why didn't she just ask me for a copy?

I don't know.

She wants you to have your privacy

or whatever.

You should ask her yourself.

Hello?

Whatever you're doing, drop it,

and get over to Nine stat.

I can't.

Look, I know exactly

what you're doing, okay?

And your journey of self-discovery

is going to be there when you get home.

Well, you go ahead and mock,

but as the great G.l. Gurdjieff says,

"Without understanding the workings

and functions of his machine,

"man cannot be free."

Yes, and without a penis

your vagina would soon turn to stone.

Very classy, Sarah.

Just get over here!

I am not taking no for an answer.

She's hung up.

Dan 't get me wrong,

I just never got anything out of this life

by sitting around introspecting myself.

The mind is an ugly place to dwell.

We all hear those voices in our heads.

What is this guy talking about?

It's that same voice

that's asking you right now,

what the hell is this guy talking about?

Well, see, the key is to get

out of your head and get into action.

And my book The Bounce Back

will help you do just that.

Oh, brother! How about this for action?

Here is to Kristin and a rare night out

among the single and sexually active.

- Woo!

- Turn up!

Oh, brother.

Cheers!

- One more!

- Ah!

- Again!

- Ah!

- Two more! I lied.

- Ah!

- You're nothing today!

- Ah!

Nobody!

You've got Big Vlad. That's me. That's it.

- Where's your head at?

- Ah!

One minute! Get your mind right.

Yeah.

Get back to work!

Why do you let him talk to you like that?

I pay him a lot of money

to talk to me like that.

He is creepy!

- You're going to stand up to him?

- I ain't afraid of him.

Oh, please!

Unbelievable!

Oh, come on T,

don't sweat that national spotlight thing.

We'll get there.

The news cycle lasts minutes these days,

either you're going viral

or you're played out, simple as that.

What?

I see you've got yourself an idea.

What? Spit it out!

- The George Addison Show.

- Don't even go there T!

- I am serious.

- Hey, what did I say?

Hear me out.

We've got to crack the bestseller top 10.

He has a nationally syndicated talk show.

I mean, we keep slipping points, we can
