Oh, my Lord.

You gotta be kidding me.

-What?

-Promise me we were safe.

-We were what?

-Safe.

Safe?

You're not one of them

paternity suit kind of gals--

What are you talking about?

What are you talking about?

l'm talking about last night.

You don't remember last night?

l got a little drunk on the plane.

Of course you did.

You know what?

lt was nothing.

Just don't worry about it.

-We didn't...?

-Nope.

Thank God, boy--

You know what?

That's more than enough, thank you.

Nothing personal,

l just made myself a promise:

No more ending up naked

with some girl l don't know.

That's a noble goal, and l wish you

the very best of luck with it.

Cirrhosis is the ninth leading cause

of death in the United States...

...and 45% of the time,

that is alcohol-induced.

Let's take a look at the first slide.

This could be your liver right now.

Do you have plans for dinner?

This is not a test about you

and how you act in relationships.

lt's called Equine Therapy.

Tennessee doesn't lie and manipulate.

He'll just respond to how you feel.

And your job is to clean his hoof.

This is how one gets sober?

lt's character-revealing.

The way we approach the horse...

...is like the way

we approach the world.

We gotta try to match our insides

with our outsides. Be real.

So my therapist today is

a very large, smelly beast of burden.

We're totally in sync.

Step in, you breathe.

Couldn't stink more if he were dead.

You reach down, pinch the tendon...

...trust yourself,

and let the horse do the rest.

Who's gonna be first? Gwen?

-Think you might need help?

-Nope, l'm fine.

Let yourself go.

All right, Mr. Ed,

just pick up your stupid foot.

Can't force it.

-Sure you don't need some help?

-No. l'm fine.

All right, look, Cornell,

just give me a pill...

...give me a shot, l don't know,

give me a lobotomy.

lnstant gratification has worked

so well for you in the past.

Just take it easy and keep it simple.

l am so tired by the way

you people talk.

''One day at a time.'' What is that?

Two, three days at a time

is an option?

l don't need the Romper Room

bullshit. l need....

What are you doing?

lt's a therapeutic tool.

You leave me no choice.

Betty, you gotta get me

a new roommate. He stinks.

l don't know

if he's just eating beef...

...and secreting ketones

out of every pore--

We're gonna come back to this.

l'm gonna be back.

We're in each other's lives, okay?

Gwen, did you get a sign?

''Confront me if l don't ask for help.''

What kind of help

you looking for exactly?

Okay, Traci.

l want you to tell your mom:

''When you do drugs,

this is what happens.'' Okay?

When you do drugs, you don't do

any fun stuff like you used to.
