I'll do it.

You think there's a building in this

place that does not have shutters?

The whole town Iooks Iike it was

built by Hansel and Gretel.

(LAUGHS) I think it's charming.

That's what they want you to think.

You think he did it on purpose?

Picking the most remote possible...

I mean, you're trapped here.

It's Iike Alcatraz.

Maybe he just wanted people

to have to get away.

From what? Cell phone service?

I don't even have one bar.

Think you can get a decent plate of

eggs anywhere in this zip code?

Oh, there's a... That Iittle

place Iooks sweet.

Oh, that place?

I guarantee you that place does not

serve breakfast for under $10.

You're a captive audience here.

We're only here for a week.

It's Iike an airport.

We might as well try... A week?

I'll be bankrupt in a week.

Let's go. Come on.

Coffee to start?

Yes. Please.

Is there anything on this menu that

doesn't have Iobster in it?

Oh.

See, there are your eggs.

And, Iook, they have a breakfast special.

What's special about $11 .75?

AII right, I'm going to have

a side of two eggs,

sunny side up, and a side of bacon, crisp.

I'll just give you the special.

It comes with the...

Nope. The special's $1 more.

And for you?

Yes. I'm just going to have the

fruit and cottage cheese plate.

I have a nervous stomach.

And we're in a tiny bit

of a hurry because...

You got the 10:
30 with Bernie.

We'll get you there on time.

Good Iuck.

There it is.

Oh, nice digs.

Yeah.

Mmm-hmm.

If he says one word about repressed

memories, I am Ieaving.

Kay and Arnold, I'm so glad you're here.

Well, that makes one of us.

Hmm.

So, Arnold, I take it intensive

therapy was not your idea.

Nope!

You wanted to come?

Yes.

AII right. And Arnold, you?

I thought she was nuts.

We're not in the same tax bracket

as your other patients.

I think you'd be surprised.

Well, even if we were, all due respect.

I really don't see the point here.

So, you think there's nothing

wrong with your marriage.

Well, we've been married

31 years, isn't it?

It's not perfect.

But in your opinion, it works well enough.

But you wanted to come.

You persuaded Arnold?

No. I mean, I paid for it.

With my own money, from savings.

AII right. So this is really

important to you.

Mmm-hmm.

Tell me why.

I want to have a marriage again.

ARNOLD:
Again?

If we don't have a marriage,

I don't know who does.

Arnold. Let's Iet Kay talk

and you can respond after.

Okay. Fine. "Again."

Arnold used to touch me.

Oh, God.

Not just... You know,

but he would touch my arm or

my shoulder, just to...

Just to, I don't know,

because he wanted to.

And now he doesn't?

And that bothers you.

Do you touch him?
