How goes it? Everything all right? Thank you! Here's a question.
How often do you masturbate? Nice.
SHE SCOFFS I'm interested.
Why? Once or twice a week.
You're kidding? I'm, like, once or twice a day at this point.
Well, you're nothing if not thorough.
I think I walked in on my mum having a wank.
Shit! I think that means the world has to pretty much implode now.
I'm just saying.
She's allowed to masturbate! But I thought old people were supposed to go off sex.
It's, like, Darwin and shit.
Your mum isn't that old.
She's pretty old.
What's up? Tom's mum's been flicking the bean.
THEY LAUGH I'm in.
Hit me.
Details? You flat out disgust me.
Either he was finishing up, or he was just getting going.
Oh, my God.
SHE WHISPERS: He had a catalogue.
- Catalogue? - Yeah, like, a As in, like a mail order underwear catalogue.
Oh, Jesus.
I mean, he reached for his belt and I was like, "What the actual fuck?" I'm so sorry, Claire.
What do I do? Presumably Janet's got to know? Hmm.
How would you feel, in the first instance, if I had a word with him? And then, you know, of course, if we if we feel, actually You know, if we decide we feel a line has actually been then Yeah.
We'll speak to Janet, no question.
SHE SIGHS I really am sorry, Claire.
Urgh Oh, no, gave up years ago.
Oh! Sorry.
I knew that.
Freak.
- Will you have some water? - Thank you.
Elaine? No? OK.
HE CLEARS HIS THROA It's a It's a beautiful garden.
Aw, thank you.
Tricky time of year, er, um Autumn and winter round the corner.
Coming frost.
So, how do? Um What's the? I mean, do you want us to, er, get this ball rolling or? It's up to you.
I can start by explaining a little about myself.
OK.
How I like to work.
The last 20 years, I've been working with a mixture of individuals and couples, using primarily psychodynamic and psychoanalytic techniques.
I like to work with a small number of clients, often over a period of years.
So, no quick-fixes here, I'm afraid.
And, if after this initial session you decide to move forward, we should aim to meet at this time and this location each and every week.
And if you cancel or you're unable to attend a session, you will, I'm afraid, still be charged.
ELAINE SCOFFS I'm conscious this might sound a little mercenary.
But the purpose, or the aim, is to create a time and a space which is entirely yours, week on week.
A private, safe, well-bounded space where frank, intimate discussions can take place.
But this might not be what you two are after.
So, um, you know, in that case, let's Please, let's have a conversation about that.
But the purpose or the goal of this first session is very much to see if the three of us might be able to work together.
So, feel free to size me up.
I think that all sounds Well, we Maybe a bit about us? Mmm.
So, this was I was the one who suggested Um Maybe that's a good So, some friends of ours, I said to them, I said that Elaine and I I said that we've been having a few And he said, "Well, have you thought about?" Cos him and his wife, they'd been You know Though they called it analysis, I don't know if that? Therapy? But they said, he said, um, my friend our friend, um, that it was a godsend.
They're his words.
And he is he is a hard bloke to please! Um, and then that got me thinking, "Well, if it can work then why not?" So, we looked at your website.
.
Great.
and we both really liked the look of that.
- Great.
- So You will tell me, won't you, if I'm, um, talking too Or rabbiting on.
I don't, um I'm not trying to take over.
Um I suppose in a nutshell um something seems to have in in the past year or so and I, um I think all I want, really, is for us to just be able to get along like we used to.
You know? Perhaps, James, you could say a little more about what you mean by, "getting along like we used to?" Do you want an example? Yeah, great.
Um Hey, so, what're you doing tonight? Just cos my dad's pretty much going to be out, and I thought we could finish that documentary on the lactose intolerant Mormons? Shit, do you like Franzen? I love Franzen.
Sorry, were you talking to me? I I was just saying, The Corrections is, like, - one of my favourite books.
- Oh, OK.
Have have you read Purity? It's his It's his new one, his newest one.
I haven't.
It's seriously, seriously, um I mean, the bits I've I haven't actually I've only just But the bits I've Oh, OK.
What the fuck was that? It's called conversation.
Oh! I think we might need a bucket to mop up all the semen.
Your coccyx, as you can see here, is looking great.
Oh, well, I've always prided myself on having a great-looking coccyx.
SHE GIGGLES Any pain still? Well, some.
And where are we up to with physio? I'm about to start hydrotherapy.
Great.
- Sports? - I don't really do any sports.
I mean, should I? Should I be? We generally advise against anything too athletic at this stage.
- But - Cycling? I'd like to start cycling again.
Regular, light, day-to-day activities, absolutely.
What about sex? As long as the sex isn't too athletic.
SHE CHUCKLES We'll schedule another check-up, and in the meantime And these? What about these? HE KNOCKS EXHAUST SPUTTERS ENGINE ROARS - WINDOW KNOCKS - Oh! Oh! - Sorry.
- Stalker! I spoke to Neil.
Oh, shit.
And? He wants to speak to you himself.
Oh, no.
Offer you an apology in person.

and if you still think that he shouldn't be wanking himself off - in the department office? - If you That's how you still then, yeah, then yeah, we'll absolutely speak to Janet.
Yeah, crazy thing is, I don't know why he doesn't just use the disabled toilet like the rest of us.
Can I interest you in a drink? My treat.
The black above is dense with stars A million stars climb Each one in flames like all of us Glowing, slowly burning out I am floating in space and time In a mist of a million lights Can anybody hear me? CAR HORN AND TYRES SCREECH Can you hear my heartbeat? Can you hear me? Whoa! Whoa! Nice wheels.

Thought I'd take the old girl for a spin.
Congratulations, old girl.
- Here, gimme a hand.
- Please? Please.
Does it hurt? Oh, a bit.
How was your day? Pretty, um, standard.
Yeah.
Yours? Yeah.
Think I've probably landed myself a new couple.
- Cool.
- Yeah.
We were going to Dublin, visit some friends, we're on the plane, and he says he needs to piss and he's gone for what feels like an eternity.
So I'm thinking, you know, either he's working his way through a particularly truculent Harry Plopper.
Harry Plopper? Wow, is that a? That's that's really a? I mean, Alan, if anything, it's come and gone.
I am so out of touch.
Anyway, suddenly this announcement starts up.
TANNOY: Ladies and gentleman, this is your captain speaking.
I'd like to introduce you to one of our fellow passengers who has a very special announcement to make.
- You're kidding? - Swear to God.
This is a message for Claire Pascal from your boyfriend Adam Cooper.
He starts rattling off all this corny as fuck shit and I'm just thinking, "Please, please let this be a hoax.
" Please don't do this, I'm begging you.
Claire Pascal will you marry me? It was the worst hour and a bit of my life.
He wept, fucking uninterrupted for the rest of that flight.
HE SOBS Ugh! Well, I'm I'm I'm sorry, Claire.
Here's to not proposing, OR wanking in public.
Or truculent Harry What was it? - Ploppers? - Truculent Harry Ploppers.
Wait a minute, I don't understand.
Are we toasting complicated shits? What time do you call this? - What? - Sit down.
Why, what's wrong? Wha Tell me about your day.
There was actually a bit of an issue.
- Oh, yeah? - Yeah.
Was somebody misbehaving? Um yeah.
- Was it you? - Me? - Huh.
- No.
No.
Oh, come on.
You're always misbehaving.
I bet you've been really naughty.
Mm.
Hm.
Joy, I'm I'm I'm quite tired.
Well, good.
Because I am going to wake you up.
- Arms up.
- Can I just Can I just ask a question before? No more talking.
OK, get up.
I thought you said no more talking? Disobedience will not be tolerated.
Up.
Ah! Mm! Oh! - Joy.
Joy - Alan! Joy.
Claire walked in on Neil masturbating.
I'm sorry.
I know.
I'm sorry.
I really I appreciate the the the attempt.
But there's an awful lot on my Playing on my The attempt? You know what I mean.
You know what I mean.
It's it's a lot to take in.
It's it's elaborate, is all I'm saying.
Well, I'm sorry my effort to try and resuscitate our flat-lining sex life Well, you No, you're just putting words into my mouth.
Well, I was planning on putting something else in my mouth, but you should be so fucking lucky.
I don't understand what's happening.
So, what, you're annoyed at me because what I'm I'm I'm tired? No! I'm disappointed because you're not prepared to What? You said you didn't believe I wanted the two of us to have sex.
- So? - So I want it on record that you are the one actively resisting intercourse.
But this isn't sex.
If you, if you'd been in bed and I'd come home and you'd been in bed and and you said, "Er, hello, Alan, shall, shall we have sex this evening?" I probably would've said "Yes, Joy, let's.
How lovely.
" But when I come home, after the kind of day I've had God, you're so boring! OK.
Well, at least I'm not trying to start a brawl for no other reason I don't wan to have the same old sex.
In fact, I refuse.
Well, at least, if we were having the same old sex we would, in fact, be having sex.
Why don't you want to try something different? - Because - Why can't you see this as an opportunity to try I'm more than happy to try something new! I just don't want to try something completely and utterly fucking ridiculous! Whispered something in your ear It was a perverted thing to say But I said it anyway Made you smile and look away Nothing's gonna hurt you, baby.
Kick! Kick! Really nice.
Looking great, guys.
OK.
We're gonna turn it up a bit.
And a double kick.
There we go! Really great.
Keep it going! Looking fantastic, guys.
And double kick.
Nice.
Really good.
And now we're going to go into a really nice stretch down and up.
OK.
And to the side.
Great.
And then back to the other side.
Really good, guys.
Once more.
You guys look great and OK.
Er not to alarm anyone, but it looks as if we might have a little problem.
If we can just leave the pool.
If we can move to the side, guys.
Thanks, um, yeah, we're going to take a break there.
Yeah, great.
OK, guys?? Great.
Thank you.
Well, that was quite an experience.
Oh, yeah.
I've always wanted to piss in a pool.
So you're the culprit.
- I wish.
- Ha-ha! I'm Marvin.
Joy.
Hi.
Um, see you next week, then.
You will.
I'll make sure I bring my goggles in case you end up pissing up a storm again.
Ha.
How are you doing? How are YOU doing? Oh, it's going to be like that, is it? I'm interested.
- I'm interested in you.
- I'm interested in you.
Do you know something? This is not what I thought therapy was going to be like.
- Oh, no? - No.
I mean, how long have we been doing this now? Long time.
Yeah, I'm still waiting for you to wheel out one of those, er, what do you call it, lying down things? Chaise longue? Is it? I dunno, the thing with the with the lying down and I'm looking up and you got a proper wiry beard going on.
With your fucking pocket watch or whatever, and I'm telling some story about my dad's pendulous cock and balls, about how I've harboured some you know cos I saw it when I was eight, and I'm still trying to get the image out of my head.
We can talk about your dad's pendulous cock and balls if you like, Jason.
Well Or dreams.
That's what people talk about, innit? Sometimes.
- I don't really dream.
- No? You're more interested in the small stuff, seems to me.
Which might be no bad thing, by the way.
Help me understand what you mean by "small stuff".
What it means, for you, the difference between small stuff and big stuff, what that is.
Why there needs to be a difference.
Some things have to matter more than others.
Hm.
What matters to you, Jason? I do have the occasional dream, truth be told.
- Really? - Mm.
Yeah, yeah, well sometimes.
A'ight, there's this one.
OK, I'm coming home.
I'm coming home, and I get in, and the power's off.
Except the fridge.
Fridge is the only thing that seems to be - And who do the shoes belong to? - Fuck knows.
Shoes aren't even the weird bit.
The weird bit is when I turn around and and there's a fucking - Goodness.
- And she I mean, she's ripped.
I can feel it.
I can feel my eyes fucking, starting to, you know Drifting.
And then what happens? I wake up.
And can you tell? Is it possible to see who the intruder is? No.
But I'm saying, generally speaking, I don't really dream.
- OK, look.
- Let me see.
Holy shit.
Have you heard of The Kraus Project? Yeah, yeah, sure.
It's great.
It's a bunch of essays? Yeah, sort of, yeah.
Franzen, like, slaved over translating these long, dense Austrian essays by this guy called Kraus who was like a satirist in the early part of the 20th century.
- Is this actually happening? - Have you read it? Most of it, yeah.
I mean, not all of it but most of it.
Cool.
Thanks.
Holy fuck! Was that me or did some actual flirting just occur? That was some of the dullest flirting I've literally ever seen in my entire life.
No way.
- She wants you.
- What? You essentially just copulated.
Anyway, so I was, like, "Well, listen, I didn't come "to Amsterdam solely to get stoned and hook up with randomers.
"I can do that at home for free.
"I want to be with you.
" And she was, like, "Well, that was never the deal.
" And then she said something about getting stoned and hooking up with randomers is pretty much the raison d'etre of Amsterdam.
And I thought about making a joke about the Dutch Masters but then I didn't, so then we just stood there.
Mum, please spare me the silent therapist thing.
I wasn't aware that's what I was doing.
That's because it's, like, your default factory setting.
Stop.
I'm sorry.
I really liked Mel.
Me too.
I would've come and picked you up at the station, you know.
It's cool.
So what's new, how's Dad? Try it now! ENGINE FAILS TO FIRE Ooh! Now, look, I don't know how you're going to feel about this, so I'm just going to put it out there.
I'm going to smoke a joint and you'd be very welcome to join me? Or if you'd rather sit this one out then that would also be fine.
Whatever floats your particular boat.
Or not.
Either way.
Oh! Hi! Hello, Naomi.
- Rita, hey.
- Hi, how are you? - I didn't realise you were back.
- It's true.
How how how was it? Erm, did you, erm - Yeah.
- It was, er, Europe, wasn't it? - Yes.
We were sort of all over.
- Oh, right.
It was cool.

Obviously how you had it before was Oh, no.
Thanks.
Erm Oh, can I interest you in a cannoli? "Leave the gun, take the cannoli!" God.
Erm Please, er, it's Er Oh, my God! What, too much limoncello? Perfect.
Ah, great.
- You after Mum? - Er, well, yes.
- Only if she's, er - She's with a client, but Oh, well, erm Oh, it's nothing.
Welcome to come in and wait if you want.
Right, thanks.
Thanks.
I find it unfathomable that you have never heard of Warren G.
I mean, if this doesn't blow your mind, I mean, I-I don't know what will.
HE CHUCKLES MUSIC: Regulate by Warren G & Nate Dogg Regulators Regulate any stealin' of this property We're damn good, too But you can't be any geek off the street You gotta be handy with the steel if you know what I mean Earn your keep Regulators, mount up!

Neil apologised.
He did.
- He did.
- Did he? Are you asking me a question? I just I wasn't sure? What did what did I say? "He did.
" I'm sorry, I don't know.
I think I'm quite stoned.
He said, er, he's been having a little bit of trouble at home.
- HE EXHALES - Hm.
Maybe we ought to just let him keep wanking? THEY CHUCKLE What time is it, please? What time do you need to leave? I don't know.
What time do you need to leave? Erm, this is my I live here, so I suggested trying something.
Suggested we try, erm "Now, I'm open," I said.
If there's anything in-in particular you'd like to try, would like the two of us to try MAN AND WOMAN MOAN I'm not suggesting that, erm, that we enjoyed it.
I-I think we both felt that all the screaming and the panting and the relentless pounding really wasn't our cup of tea.
But, erm, one of the women, erm Well, one of the women in particular, erm And, historically, porn isn't a turn on for me, but this, this one woman in particular, I I couldn't Joy, erm, I couldn't I couldn't take my eyes off her.
And I love, I love Neil.
God, he's terrific, he really is.
But I-I think sometimes to myself I have thought to myself, erm, what if? You know? - Hey.
- Hi.
- Listen, I'm sorry - I'm sorry about I promise I'll try to be more civil next time you reject me outright.
Um I'm joking.
That was a joke.
And I-I'm I'm sorry, too.
I think Neil and Rita might be separating.
Shit.
Freedom Balance So many friends Wish that for me - Hi.
- Hi.
How are you? Wet.
- Joy, wasn't it? - Yeah.
Marvin.
The Martian.
Well, I'll see you next week.
You will.
Hiya.
Oh, yes! HORNS HONK Tea? So that's your office? It is, mm-hm.
What happens if you bump into a, you know, client, someone you're working with, out and about? - Not a lot.
- God, I'd be mortified.
Are you in therapy, Marvin? I could imagine being hypothetically mortified.
Antonia, my ex, she wanted us to.
- What did you want? - Not that.
Although if I'd known it could be as relaxed as all this then who knows? You're very welcome to take a closer look.
- Any good? - Oh.
It's great.
Out of ten? Oh, at least a solid nine and a half.
- High praise! - Mm-hm.
What's the I don't know what you'd call it, the most common, like, complaint? You know, cause for concern.
Hm.
It varies.
I bet.
I mean, I get lack of desire a lot.
Lack of passion.
"How can we get it back? What happened? Where did it go? "It used to be so natural, now it's almost impossible.
" I mean, generally speaking, we are very bad in this country at, erm, discussing our private lives in public.
We feel tremendous shame.
Too ashamed of our needs.
Which means a lot of the time, by the time people make it to me, often their relationship is, erm haemorrhaging very badly.
- Jesus.
- Yeah.
What about if Sorry.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
I think I need to change hands.
No, no, no, don't worry about it! No, it's my bad hand.
It's not allowed to be athletic.
I don't even know what you do.
I-I work for the Hertfordshire Constabulary.
- No, you don't.
- CID.
No, you don't! - It's true, I do! - Shit! Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! Oh! Ahhh! I'm staying with my brother.
It's been hardly any time at all, but I miss her.
I thought I'd feel really angry, but it's not, erm It's like a much purer form of sadness.
Oh, do you want? Oh Oh, Alan, can I ask you something? How would you feel about accompanying me to a session of kung fu? I've got a lot of excess energy at the moment, I'm feeling, and I've always loved Bruce Lee.
Um Neil, I don't really know anything about martial arts.
Well, it's beginners.
Website says you just need a tracksuit and, er, a T-shirt and a willingness to try.
Yeah, anyway, it's, erm You don't have to give me an answer now.
It's, you know, it's just a thought.
Joy.
Yeah? Joy, I'm really sorry, but me and Claire, we had sex.
She was having trouble.
She couldn't get her car started.
It was raining, and and we smoked a joint and then we listened to some Warren G and then she went down on me, Joy.
She went down on me and then we had sex.
Joy, I'm so sorry.
I'm so, so sorry.
Alan, I tossed off a man from my hydrotherapy group.
What?! Jesus fucking Christ, Joy! I mean, when? This afternoon.
I mean, I mean, how? I mean who, who even Well, he offered me a lift home and, in order to say thank you, I invited What, you grabbed his dick?! You know what? We are both culpable.
We've both The difference is I've been feeling really guilty ever since! So have I! What makes you think To me right now, you look like the opposite of guilty.
Oh, you mean I'm innocent, then.
There is a world of difference between tossing someone off - you hardly even know - Yeah, but don't you see? No, what happened, the difference between what happened between me and Claire is - Worse? Is more duplicitous? - No! Is arguably more of a betrayal? I opted to toss him off because I was aware that doing anything more was Sorry, you opted? What, you happened to be passing a selection of penises and you opted? You know what? No, you know what? I think you're behaving You are angry and upset, and I can understand that, but can we at least try and at least try and acknowledge that we are both at fault? OK, OK, OK, fine, fine.
I'm sorry.
You should be.
You fucked a colleague, stoned! You should be sorry! Yeah, and that HE SIGHS that's what I've been trying to say.
Why did you do it? Why did YOU? Honestly? What else is there at this point? I don't enjoy having sex with you.
I think, in the last, recently, in the last, I don't know, two, maybe four I just I haven't really been enjoying our sex life.
I think we've stopped having fun, and I think perhaps we stopped communicating, in a way, about what we About the things we enjoy or what we want, or might want, or might have wanted to try or And I think perhaps we're both I don't know I think, somehow, we've become unacceptably boring in bed.
I-I didn't go looking, if that's what you mean, I wasn't actively - Neither was I! - And I feel awful, I feel fucking awful about it.
I know.
Listen, I'm not angry with you, I don't Well, maybe you should be.
Maybe the fact that you're not, maybe maybe it makes me think, well, is this something you wanted to happen? I don't want to re-invent the wheel every time we go to bed, no.
No, nor do I, but, you know, sometimes, I feel like doing something different.
I have felt like doing something different.
Well, then, I think we just need to be more organised.
Why? Because I feel happier knowing what my day is going to entail.
Yeah, and if that makes me unadventurous, you know what? No, no it doesn't make you unadventurous.
All it makes us, I think, is different.
Tell me what you did with Claire.
What you and Claire did.
I already have, haven't I? - No, in detail.
- What? No! - You're serious? - Hm.
How did being with her compare to being with me? I can't even What What is this?! I'd like to enjoy having sex and, ideally, I'd like to have more of it outside of this room.
You know, not just below these sheets, keeping our voices down once or twice a month if we're lucky.
But if you don't if you don't mind the way it is then I think I think you need to say something.
Sounds to me like you're saying you've had enough.
Of us.
Of me.
- No, that has nothing to do with - The sex is boring.
We've not been honest.
In fact, we've been lying to each other.
OK, yeah, those are all statements of fact, but I'm not As is the fact that, for most people, this would mean the end of their marriage.
I don't give a shit what this would mean for most people.
So then you tell me, how do we come back from this? OK, I am not saying I've had enough.
Look at me.
I am no way near having had enough.
I love you.
I love being with you.
I love the fact that we've been together as long as we have.
I love that.
But, yeah, we have a problem because I love you, too.

How goes it? Everything all right? Thank you! Here's a question.
How often do you masturbate? Nice.
SHE SCOFFS I'm interested.
Why? Once or twice a week.
You're kidding? I'm, like, once or twice a day at this point.
Well, you're nothing if not thorough.
I think I walked in on my mum having a wank.
Shit! I think that means the world has to pretty much implode now.
I'm just saying.
She's allowed to masturbate! But I thought old people were supposed to go off sex.
It's, like, Darwin and shit.
Your mum isn't that old.
She's pretty old.
What's up? Tom's mum's been flicking the bean.
THEY LAUGH I'm in.
Hit me.
Details? You flat out disgust me.
Either he was finishing up, or he was just getting going.
Oh, my God.
SHE WHISPERS: He had a catalogue.
- Catalogue? - Yeah, like, a As in, like a mail order underwear catalogue.
Oh, Jesus.
I mean, he reached for his belt and I was like, "What the actual fuck?" I'm so sorry, Claire.
What do I do? Presumably Janet's got to know? Hmm.
How would you feel, in the first instance, if I had a word with him? And then, you know, of course, if we if we feel, actually You know, if we decide we feel a line has actually been then Yeah.
We'll speak to Janet, no question.
SHE SIGHS I really am sorry, Claire.

Oh! Sorry.
I knew that.
Freak.
- Will you have some water? - Thank you.
Elaine? No? OK.
HE CLEARS HIS THROA It's a It's a beautiful garden.
Aw, thank you.
Tricky time of year, er, um Autumn and winter round the corner.
Coming frost.
So, how do? Um What's the? I mean, do you want us to, er, get this ball rolling or? It's up to you.
I can start by explaining a little about myself.
OK.
How I like to work.
The last 20 years, I've been working with a mixture of individuals and couples, using primarily psychodynamic and psychoanalytic techniques.
I like to work with a small number of clients, often over a period of years.
So, no quick-fixes here, I'm afraid.
And, if after this initial session you decide to move forward, we should aim to meet at this time and this location each and every week.
And if you cancel or you're unable to attend a session, you will, I'm afraid, still be charged.
ELAINE SCOFFS I'm conscious this might sound a little mercenary.
But the purpose, or the aim, is to create a time and a space which is entirely yours, week on week.
A private, safe, well-bounded space where frank, intimate discussions can take place.
But this might not be what you two are after.
So, um, you know, in that case, let's Please, let's have a conversation about that.
But the purpose or the goal of this first session is very much to see if the three of us might be able to work together.
So, feel free to size me up.
I think that all sounds Well, we Maybe a bit about us? Mmm.
So, this was I was the one who suggested Um Maybe that's a good So, some friends of ours, I said to them, I said that Elaine and I I said that we've been having a few And he said, "Well, have you thought about?" Cos him and his wife, they'd been You know Though they called it analysis, I don't know if that? Therapy? But they said, he said, um, my friend our friend, um, that it was a godsend.
They're his words.
And he is he is a hard bloke to please! Um, and then that got me thinking, "Well, if it can work then why not?" So, we looked at your website.
.
Great.
and we both really liked the look of that.
- Great.
- So You will tell me, won't you, if I'm, um, talking too Or rabbiting on.
I don't, um I'm not trying to take over.
Um I suppose in a nutshell um something seems to have in in the past year or so and I, um I think all I want, really, is for us to just be able to get along like we used to.
You know? Perhaps, James, you could say a little more about what you mean by, "getting along like we used to?" Do you want an example? Yeah, great.
Um Hey, so, what're you doing tonight? Just cos my dad's pretty much going to be out, and I thought we could finish that documentary on the lactose intolerant Mormons? Shit, do you like Franzen? I love Franzen.
Sorry, were you talking to me? I I was just saying, The Corrections is, like, - one of my favourite books.

I haven't.
It's seriously, seriously, um I mean, the bits I've I haven't actually I've only just But the bits I've Oh, OK.
What the fuck was that? It's called conversation.
Oh! I think we might need a bucket to mop up all the semen.
Your coccyx, as you can see here, is looking great.
Oh, well, I've always prided myself on having a great-looking coccyx.
SHE GIGGLES Any pain still? Well, some.
And where are we up to with physio? I'm about to start hydrotherapy.
Great.
- Sports? - I don't really do any sports.
I mean, should I? Should I be? We generally advise against anything too athletic at this stage.
- But - Cycling? I'd like to start cycling again.
Regular, light, day-to-day activities, absolutely.
What about sex? As long as the sex isn't too athletic.
SHE CHUCKLES We'll schedule another check-up, and in the meantime And these? What about these? HE KNOCKS EXHAUST SPUTTERS ENGINE ROARS - WINDOW KNOCKS - Oh! Oh! - Sorry.

Does it hurt? Oh, a bit.
How was your day? Pretty, um, standard.
Yeah.
Yours? Yeah.
Think I've probably landed myself a new couple.
- Cool.
- Yeah.
We were going to Dublin, visit some friends, we're on the plane, and he says he needs to piss and he's gone for what feels like an eternity.
So I'm thinking, you know, either he's working his way through a particularly truculent Harry Plopper.
Harry Plopper? Wow, is that a? That's that's really a? I mean, Alan, if anything, it's come and gone.
I am so out of touch.
Anyway, suddenly this announcement starts up.
TANNOY: Ladies and gentleman, this is your captain speaking.
I'd like to introduce you to one of our fellow passengers who has a very special announcement to make.
- You're kidding? - Swear to God.
This is a message for Claire Pascal from your boyfriend Adam Cooper.
He starts rattling off all this corny as fuck shit and I'm just thinking, "Please, please let this be a hoax.
" Please don't do this, I'm begging you.
Claire Pascal will you marry me? It was the worst hour and a bit of my life.
He wept, fucking uninterrupted for the rest of that flight.
HE SOBS Ugh! Well, I'm I'm I'm sorry, Claire.
Here's to not proposing, OR wanking in public.
Or truculent Harry What was it? - Ploppers? - Truculent Harry Ploppers.
Wait a minute, I don't understand.
Are we toasting complicated shits? What time do you call this? - What? - Sit down.
Why, what's wrong? Wha Tell me about your day.
There was actually a bit of an issue.
- Oh, yeah? - Yeah.
Was somebody misbehaving? Um yeah.
- Was it you? - Me? - Huh.
- No.
No.
Oh, come on.
You're always misbehaving.
I bet you've been really naughty.
Mm.
Hm.
Joy, I'm I'm I'm quite tired.
Well, good.
Because I am going to wake you up.
- Arms up.
- Can I just Can I just ask a question before? No more talking.
OK, get up.
I thought you said no more talking? Disobedience will not be tolerated.

Ah! Mm! Oh! - Joy.
Joy - Alan! Joy.
Claire walked in on Neil masturbating.
I'm sorry.
I know.
I'm sorry.
I really I appreciate the the the attempt.
But there's an awful lot on my Playing on my The attempt? You know what I mean.
You know what I mean.
It's it's a lot to take in.
It's it's elaborate, is all I'm saying.
Well, I'm sorry my effort to try and resuscitate our flat-lining sex life Well, you No, you're just putting words into my mouth.
Well, I was planning on putting something else in my mouth, but you should be so fucking lucky.
I don't understand what's happening.
So, what, you're annoyed at me because what I'm I'm I'm tired? No! I'm disappointed because you're not prepared to What? You said you didn't believe I wanted the two of us to have sex.
- So? - So I want it on record that you are the one actively resisting intercourse.
But this isn't sex.
If you, if you'd been in bed and I'd come home and you'd been in bed and and you said, "Er, hello, Alan, shall, shall we have sex this evening?" I probably would've said "Yes, Joy, let's.
How lovely.
" But when I come home, after the kind of day I've had God, you're so boring! OK.
Well, at least I'm not trying to start a brawl for no other reason I don't wan to have the same old sex.
In fact, I refuse.
Well, at least, if we were having the same old sex we would, in fact, be having sex.
Why don't you want to try something different? - Because - Why can't you see this as an opportunity to try I'm more than happy to try something new! I just don't want to try something completely and utterly fucking ridiculous! Whispered something in your ear It was a perverted thing to say But I said it anyway Made you smile and look away Nothing's gonna hurt you, baby.
Kick! Kick! Really nice.
Looking great, guys.
OK.
We're gonna turn it up a bit.
And a double kick.
There we go! Really great.
Keep it going! Looking fantastic, guys.
And double kick.
Nice.
Really good.
And now we're going to go into a really nice stretch down and up.
OK.
And to the side.
Great.
And then back to the other side.
Really good, guys.
Once more.
You guys look great and OK.
Er not to alarm anyone, but it looks as if we might have a little problem.
If we can just leave the pool.
If we can move to the side, guys.
Thanks, um, yeah, we're going to take a break there.
Yeah, great.
OK, guys?? Great.
Thank you.
Well, that was quite an experience.
Oh, yeah.
I've always wanted to piss in a pool.
So you're the culprit.
- I wish.
- Ha-ha! I'm Marvin.
Joy.
Hi.
Um, see you next week, then.
You will.
I'll make sure I bring my goggles in case you end up pissing up a storm again.
Ha.
How are you doing? How are YOU doing? Oh, it's going to be like that, is it? I'm interested.
- I'm interested in you.
- I'm interested in you.
Do you know something? This is not what I thought therapy was going to be like.
- Oh, no? - No.
I mean, how long have we been doing this now? Long time.
Yeah, I'm still waiting for you to wheel out one of those, er, what do you call it, lying down things? Chaise longue? Is it? I dunno, the thing with the with the lying down and I'm looking up and you got a proper wiry beard going on.
With your fucking pocket watch or whatever, and I'm telling some story about my dad's pendulous cock and balls, about how I've harboured some you know cos I saw it when I was eight, and I'm still trying to get the image out of my head.
We can talk about your dad's pendulous cock and balls if you like, Jason.
Well Or dreams.
That's what people talk about, innit? Sometimes.
- I don't really dream.
- No? You're more interested in the small stuff, seems to me.
Which might be no bad thing, by the way.
Help me understand what you mean by "small stuff".
What it means, for you, the difference between small stuff and big stuff, what that is.
Why there needs to be a difference.
Some things have to matter more than others.
Hm.
What matters to you, Jason? I do have the occasional dream, truth be told.
- Really? - Mm.
Yeah, yeah, well sometimes.
A'ight, there's this one.
OK, I'm coming home.
I'm coming home, and I get in, and the power's off.
Except the fridge.
Fridge is the only thing that seems to be - And who do the shoes belong to? - Fuck knows.
Shoes aren't even the weird bit.
The weird bit is when I turn around and and there's a fucking - Goodness.
- And she I mean, she's ripped.
I can feel it.
I can feel my eyes fucking, starting to, you know Drifting.
And then what happens? I wake up.
And can you tell? Is it possible to see who the intruder is? No.
But I'm saying, generally speaking, I don't really dream.
- OK, look.
- Let me see.
Holy shit.
Have you heard of The Kraus Project? Yeah, yeah, sure.
It's great.
It's a bunch of essays? Yeah, sort of, yeah.
Franzen, like, slaved over translating these long, dense Austrian essays by this guy called Kraus who was like a satirist in the early part of the 20th century.
- Is this actually happening? - Have you read it? Most of it, yeah.
I mean, not all of it but most of it.
Cool.
Thanks.
Holy fuck! Was that me or did some actual flirting just occur? That was some of the dullest flirting I've literally ever seen in my entire life.
No way.
- She wants you.
- What? You essentially just copulated.
Anyway, so I was, like, "Well, listen, I didn't come "to Amsterdam solely to get stoned and hook up with randomers.
"I can do that at home for free.
"I want to be with you.
" And she was, like, "Well, that was never the deal.
" And then she said something about getting stoned and hooking up with randomers is pretty much the raison d'etre of Amsterdam.
And I thought about making a joke about the Dutch Masters but then I didn't, so then we just stood there.
Mum, please spare me the silent therapist thing.
I wasn't aware that's what I was doing.
That's because it's, like, your default factory setting.
Stop.
I'm sorry.
I really liked Mel.
Me too.
I would've come and picked you up at the station, you know.
It's cool.
So what's new, how's Dad? Try it now! ENGINE FAILS TO FIRE Ooh! Now, look, I don't know how you're going to feel about this, so I'm just going to put it out there.
I'm going to smoke a joint and you'd be very welcome to join me? Or if you'd rather sit this one out then that would also be fine.
Whatever floats your particular boat.
Or not.
Either way.
Oh! Hi! Hello, Naomi.
- Rita, hey.
- Hi, how are you? - I didn't realise you were back.
- It's true.
How how how was it? Erm, did you, erm - Yeah.

Erm Oh, can I interest you in a cannoli? "Leave the gun, take the cannoli!" God.
Erm Please, er, it's Er Oh, my God! What, too much limoncello? Perfect.
Ah, great.

- Only if she's, er - She's with a client, but Oh, well, erm Oh, it's nothing.
Welcome to come in and wait if you want.
Right, thanks.
Thanks.

I mean, if this doesn't blow your mind, I mean, I-I don't know what will.
HE CHUCKLES MUSIC: Regulate by Warren G & Nate Dogg Regulators Regulate any stealin' of this property We're damn good, too But you can't be any geek off the street You gotta be handy with the steel if you know what I mean Earn your keep Regulators, mount up!

" I'm sorry, I don't know.
I think I'm quite stoned.
He said, er, he's been having a little bit of trouble at home.
- HE EXHALES - Hm.
Maybe we ought to just let him keep wanking? THEY CHUCKLE What time is it, please? What time do you need to leave? I don't know.
What time do you need to leave? Erm, this is my I live here, so I suggested trying something.
Suggested we try, erm "Now, I'm open," I said.
If there's anything in-in particular you'd like to try, would like the two of us to try MAN AND WOMAN MOAN I'm not suggesting that, erm, that we enjoyed it.
I-I think we both felt that all the screaming and the panting and the relentless pounding really wasn't our cup of tea.
But, erm, one of the women, erm Well, one of the women in particular, erm And, historically, porn isn't a turn on for me, but this, this one woman in particular, I I couldn't Joy, erm, I couldn't I couldn't take my eyes off her.
And I love, I love Neil.
God, he's terrific, he really is.
But I-I think sometimes to myself I have thought to myself, erm, what if? You know? - Hey.
- Hi.
- Listen, I'm sorry - I'm sorry about I promise I'll try to be more civil next time you reject me outright.
Um I'm joking.
That was a joke.
And I-I'm I'm sorry, too.
I think Neil and Rita might be separating.
Shit.
Freedom Balance So many friends Wish that for me - Hi.

Marvin.
The Martian.
Well, I'll see you next week.
You will.
Hiya.
Oh, yes! HORNS HONK Tea? So that's your office? It is, mm-hm.
What happens if you bump into a, you know, client, someone you're working with, out and about? - Not a lot.
- God, I'd be mortified.
Are you in therapy, Marvin? I could imagine being hypothetically mortified.
Antonia, my ex, she wanted us to.
- What did you want? - Not that.
Although if I'd known it could be as relaxed as all this then who knows? You're very welcome to take a closer look.
- Any good? - Oh.
It's great.
Out of ten? Oh, at least a solid nine and a half.
- High praise! - Mm-hm.
What's the I don't know what you'd call it, the most common, like, complaint? You know, cause for concern.
Hm.
It varies.
I bet.
I mean, I get lack of desire a lot.
Lack of passion.
"How can we get it back? What happened? Where did it go? "It used to be so natural, now it's almost impossible.
" I mean, generally speaking, we are very bad in this country at, erm, discussing our private lives in public.
We feel tremendous shame.
Too ashamed of our needs.
Which means a lot of the time, by the time people make it to me, often their relationship is, erm haemorrhaging very badly.
- Jesus.
- Yeah.
What about if Sorry.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
I think I need to change hands.
No, no, no, don't worry about it! No, it's my bad hand.
It's not allowed to be athletic.
I don't even know what you do.
I-I work for the Hertfordshire Constabulary.
- No, you don't.
- CID.
No, you don't! - It's true, I do! - Shit! Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! Oh! Ahhh! I'm staying with my brother.
It's been hardly any time at all, but I miss her.
I thought I'd feel really angry, but it's not, erm It's like a much purer form of sadness.
Oh, do you want? Oh Oh, Alan, can I ask you something? How would you feel about accompanying me to a session of kung fu? I've got a lot of excess energy at the moment, I'm feeling, and I've always loved Bruce Lee.
Um Neil, I don't really know anything about martial arts.
Well, it's beginners.
Website says you just need a tracksuit and, er, a T-shirt and a willingness to try.
Yeah, anyway, it's, erm You don't have to give me an answer now.
It's, you know, it's just a thought.
Joy.
Yeah? Joy, I'm really sorry, but me and Claire, we had sex.
She was having trouble.
She couldn't get her car started.
It was raining, and and we smoked a joint and then we listened to some Warren G and then she went down on me, Joy.
She went down on me and then we had sex.
Joy, I'm so sorry.
I'm so, so sorry.
Alan, I tossed off a man from my hydrotherapy group.
What?! Jesus fucking Christ, Joy! I mean, when? This afternoon.
I mean, I mean, how? I mean who, who even Well, he offered me a lift home and, in order to say thank you, I invited What, you grabbed his dick?! You know what? We are both culpable.
We've both The difference is I've been feeling really guilty ever since! So have I! What makes you think To me right now, you look like the opposite of guilty.
Oh, you mean I'm innocent, then.
There is a world of difference between tossing someone off - you hardly even know - Yeah, but don't you see? No, what happened, the difference between what happened between me and Claire is - Worse? Is more duplicitous? - No! Is arguably more of a betrayal? I opted to toss him off because I was aware that doing anything more was Sorry, you opted? What, you happened to be passing a selection of penises and you opted? You know what? No, you know what? I think you're behaving You are angry and upset, and I can understand that, but can we at least try and at least try and acknowledge that we are both at fault? OK, OK, OK, fine, fine.
I'm sorry.
You should be.
You fucked a colleague, stoned! You should be sorry! Yeah, and that HE SIGHS that's what I've been trying to say.
Why did you do it? Why did YOU? Honestly? What else is there at this point? I don't enjoy having sex with you.
I think, in the last, recently, in the last, I don't know, two, maybe four I just I haven't really been enjoying our sex life.
I think we've stopped having fun, and I think perhaps we stopped communicating, in a way, about what we About the things we enjoy or what we want, or might want, or might have wanted to try or And I think perhaps we're both I don't know I think, somehow, we've become unacceptably boring in bed.
I-I didn't go looking, if that's what you mean, I wasn't actively - Neither was I! - And I feel awful, I feel fucking awful about it.
I know.
Listen, I'm not angry with you, I don't Well, maybe you should be.
Maybe the fact that you're not, maybe maybe it makes me think, well, is this something you wanted to happen? I don't want to re-invent the wheel every time we go to bed, no.
No, nor do I, but, you know, sometimes, I feel like doing something different.
I have felt like doing something different.
Well, then, I think we just need to be more organised.
Why? Because I feel happier knowing what my day is going to entail.
Yeah, and if that makes me unadventurous, you know what? No, no it doesn't make you unadventurous.
All it makes us, I think, is different.
Tell me what you did with Claire.
What you and Claire did.
I already have, haven't I? - No, in detail.
- What? No! - You're serious? - Hm.
How did being with her compare to being with me? I can't even What What is this?! I'd like to enjoy having sex and, ideally, I'd like to have more of it outside of this room.
You know, not just below these sheets, keeping our voices down once or twice a month if we're lucky.
But if you don't if you don't mind the way it is then I think I think you need to say something.
Sounds to me like you're saying you've had enough.
