That seems so amazing to me

that you can just like...

So you don't have

jealousy at all, ever?

- No.

- Come on.

No, we're all on

our own paths, you know?

Everybody's got...

their own needs.

But do you even have the

feeling, and then you say, like,

"I'm not going to go

with this feeling,"

or do you just not even have

the feeling of jealousy?

Um...

The only feeling I have is like,

"Oh, I really wish... "

If I suddenly wish that he

was there, but he's not there.

Mm-hmm.

But that's, you know,

that's my own sh*t.

That's your own sh*t?

My teabag says,

"You are unlimited. "

You are unlimited.

What does mine say?

Trust creates peace.

- Oh, see?

- That's appropriate.

Can we put the camera away now?

I know, but sometimes

I just wanna be here.

Okay.

Just the two of us.

Without a camera between us.

- That sounds good.

- Yeah.

- Good breath.

- I know.

- I'm getting better at this.

- You are.

It's so interesting

to do this, isn't it?

It's good. Feels good.

Yeah, 'cause it's funny,

the first few times we did it,

it's like, the eye contact

always seems to be like,

we should either make out

or cry or you know...

- Yeah.

- But...

- You don't have to talk.

- You don't have to do it.

- I should shut up now.

- You don't have to qualify it.

See? So much better.

Totally.

We'll take it

to the next level.

All right.

That's good.

- That's nice.

- Yeah?

- That's good.

- Wow.

- Feel good?

- That's amazing.

Yeah, that's like third-eye

to third-eye, you know?

It's like kind of

an inner seeing.

- Do you wanna, um...

- I like it.

Do you wanna trade massages

right now?

I would love that.

You mean like right here?

- No, let's go upstairs.

- Okay.

- Should we bring our tea?

- Bring your tea.

Trust is peace.

Oh, that feels good.

- Really?

- Oh, my God.

Yeah, you got

some tension going on.

- Whew!

- Wow.

Too much?

- It's a lot.

- It's a lot?

It's a lot, but in a good way.

Oh, my goodness.

- Yeah, you need that.

- Ooh!

This shirt is kinda

getting in the way here.

Do you wanna take it off

and then we can use the oil?

All right, sure.

Yeah, let's do that.

Let's see,

this looks like good...

- massage oil.

- See where the oil is?

Yeah, it's pretty handy here.

You must get massages a lot.

Well, sometimes,

when I'm lucky.

It's a nice thing to do.

All right, here we go.

This'll be nice.

- Do these go up?

- Mm-hmm.

I need more oil for this.

- It's a very kissable back.

- Oh, okay.

- It's just part of the massage.

- Oh, okay.

It's a very...

special technique I have.

I see. Uh...

- Danny.

- What?

- I...

- What?

- I think maybe we should stop.

- What do you mean?

This is just getting going.
