-[therapist] How are you guys? -[Andi] Hi.
-[Kyle] Hey. -[therapist] Hi.
-[therapist] How are you feeling? -Really good.
Uh, Kyle? Uh, whenever I ask that, you always look immediately over to Andi.
Is there a reason for that?
Oh, um... [sniffs]
I guess, uh, it was initially Andi's idea to start coming here,
um, and seeing you, so, um...
I just always then, uh, check in with you to see how you're feeling.
It's nice.
So, Andi, how are you doing?
[sighs]
I feel ready.
I feel like this has been such an important part of the process,
as a very, very adult sort of thing to do,
of talking it out and making it super conscious,
but at a certain point, I feel like it's getting into a heady zone.
Um, and it just feels so abstract at this point, and...
it's unanswerable in this room. Uh, you know?
So I feel like we should just do it.
Well, just so we're all on the same page, what do you mean by "do it"?
Open marriage.
[Andi chuckles]
Having sex with other people. [chuckles]
Kyle, you look surprised.
I didn't know you were there yet. I didn't know you were ready.
I didn't know we were at that moment. [chuckles]
-You okay? -[chuckles]
Yeah, I'm okay. I mean, it's a lot to take in.
We hadn't, uh, exactly discussed that beforehand.
-No, I'm sorry to just drop it like that. -[chuckles]
-I just... -Sure.
I like when we're in there because it makes it safe...
-Yeah. -to say what-- you know...
Totally. So now what, though?
-We just start? -[sighs]
Yeah.
-Okay. -I guess, right?
I guess. I mean, do we need to set some rules or--
I don't think we need rules. I feel like we've done the work...
Mm-hmm.
in there and in our life, and we have so much love, and...
-I feel connected to you. -Yeah, totally. Me, too.
Um, I guess, I just gotta ask...
Are you now ready to start trying
because there's someone specific that you wanna try with?
No. No. No. Do you have...
Oh, no, no. No, I mean, there are people I have little crushes on,
or who I think are hot. But...
-I've got my little list. But... -Shut up. [groans]
-Oh, my gosh, thank you so much. -[Kyle] Seriously.
-[man] Not a problem. -[Andi] Once again saved the day.
[man] I got my butt kicked in Sorry! a couple times.
-[Kyle] Oh, right. -[Andi] Good, I like to hear that.
-I got schooled. Take it easy, you guys. -[Kyle] Uh-oh.
-Thank you so much. -[man] Sure thing.
If you should ever need extra time or something,
let me know and the kids can hang out. It's not a problem.
Thanks, Tom.
-No problem. -I appreciate it so much.
I get it.
-Okay. -Just let me know, okay?
[Kyle] That's amazing, awesome.
[director] 'Cause this is...
The last time you saw Tony, he's in a pool of blood.
-[Kyle] Yeah. -[director] You're processing this.
This is bringing us down and then you're down here.
I'm just saying, what are you, a fucking robot?
Tony Pony's dead, and whose side are you on?
The humans or the suits?
Jesus Christ! Elias, how about let's just say I'm on both sides, huh?
How about let's just go with that?
Andi? Can I borrow you for a quick sec?
-I don't feel like he's petulant at all. -[Kyle] Of course.
I feel like, you know, even a thumbs up and such...
[director] I know you didn't want it to be really good.
You cut the whole monologue.
I'm not touching that. I'm out of here.
Great work today. Good job, great work.
Oh, hey, dude. How's it going?
-Hey. -Oh, hello.
Oh, hello. What, do you got any weekend plans?
Um, I have... Well, I have a date on Friday.
-But I think I'm gonna cancel it. -Why? Tell me everything.
How do I cancel it? [laughs]
Tell him there's some hotshot actor at the theater you work at [clicks tongue]
-a big Chicago star. -That's a good idea.
If he's a big fan of the theater, he'll be very intimidated.
-That's a very good plan. -Thank you.
I'll say I'm hanging out with you.
Maybe he saw me in Much Ado About Nothing last summer.
Are you asking me on a date? [laughs]
[chuckles] Do you wanna come watch my kids with me?
Yeah, kind of.
Uh, you don't.
Uh... Well, I'm thrilled to be back here working again.
-It's been a minute. -Yeah, I know.
Mostly 'cause I get to come in here and annoy you.
I love it when you come here and annoy me.
Thank you.
-Your turn, Dad. -[Kyle smacks lips]
Okay, I'm gonna grab these two white cards,
and that gives me three white cards,
and I can lay some track
-between Nashville and Little Rock. -[Andi clears throat]
[cell phone chimes]
I can also...
Um...
Actually, that's all I can do. I'm gonna pass.
-Mom, it's your turn. -It's your turn.
Okay, okay, okay. Um...
Let me see. I'll take the wild.
[Kyle] What was going on on your phone during the board game?
-Oh, um... Possibly. -Hot date? Setting up a hot date?
-Oh. -Yeah.
I've been sort of fielding offers.
-[chuckles] -Mmm.
-Mm-hmm. -Offers, plural.
Well, you know, once the word gets out that Andi's avails...
[both laugh]
And what about you?
[inhales sharply] Um...
-Yeah. -Oh.
-Wow, wow. You're swinging it around. -Yeah, shit's getting real.
I'll swing it around.
-They can smell it. They know. -[both chuckle]
I want you.
-Yeah? -Mm-hmm. I want you.
-Oh, yeah? Well, come and get it. -[both laugh]
We should have opened this up a long time ago. [laughs]
-Shut up. -[laughing] Ow!
You dick. [chuckles]
[Andi] What do you think? Should I cancel the sitter?
-Are you gonna be around? -Um...
I don't know yet. I don't know what I'll do after rehearsal tonight.
Can I let you know at lunch?
No. I have to tell her now
because she's gonna pick them up from school.
-Right. Um... Uh... -So...
-Then yeah, I think we should confirm. -Okay.
I'll just get a drink with someone or something, um,
'cause I don't want to be home alone with the kids when you're out on a date.
Um... [chuckles]
Are you cool, still?
-Are we... -Yes, totally cool.
-Okay. -Absolutely.
Okay, great.
Remind me who this is again. He's from the ad agency?
-[Andi] Justin... -[Kyle] Justin, right.
[Andi chuckling] We're gonna have a little cocktail after work.
[Kyle] Cool.
[bartender] Hi. How are you?
-Hey. Good. How are you? -I'm well.
-[Kyle] How are you doing, man? -I feel super behind.
Oh, my God. You're doing great.
How you liking Chicago? How's it feeling?
-A little lonely. -Really?
-Yeah. I don't know anyone out here. -Makes sense.
Uh, you don't wanna grab some drinks tonight? You got plans?
-No, I got nothing. I'd love it, actually. -Yeah?
-I could use getting out. -Get a couple of beers.
-Really. -Blow off some steam.
-That'd be fun. -Cool. Let's do it.
Oh. What, now? Great.
-Yeah. -Good night, guys. Thank you.
-See ya. -Bye. Good night.
-Let's get off book. -Trying. Trying.
Hey, Amy!
[Amy laughs]
-Kyle! -What's up?
-Nothing. -We're done with the rehearsal,
and Frank and I are gonna grab some beers.
You wanna come?
[bartender] Drinks on this side, food on the other.
-Oh. -It is our happy hour as well.
Um, if I order something here and took it to the table, would that be okay?
I'll transfer it over, no problem.
-What can I do for you? -Uh, two vodka sodas and a Hopewell.
-Oh, absolutely. -Thanks, man.
[sighs]
-How you doing? -[chuckling] I'm fine. I'm fine.
What are you laughing at?
-I'm losing it. -Why?
Uh, I'm just-- I'm really nerv-- I'm going--
Uh-huh.
I'm embarking on a date, and I haven't been on a date in 20 years.
-Really? -Mm-hmm.
-Like a coma situation, or... -[both chuckle]
Little bit. No, um, I'm married.
I've been married for 100 years, so...
Oh, is this like a rekindling-your-marriage-type thing?
-Like, with your husband? -Hmm. Not directly, uh,
but no, we're open. [laughs]
-Like an open marriage? -Yeah.
Who are you meeting?
-Justin? -[laughs] Why do you say it like that?
-I don't know. -Justin. Do you know him?
-I know him, but I don't, like, know him. -Vodka sodas.
Thanks, man.
-Huh. Good luck with, uh, Justin. -Thank you.
-[chuckles] Have a good night. -Good night.
-Hey. -Oh, my gosh. Hi. How are you?
-Hi. I'm good. -[chuckles] Oh.
-So good to see you. -Absolutely.
Do you want to do a table or bar?
I love the bar.
[Amy] Where are the kids tonight? Are they with Andi, or...
[Kyle] No, we have a sitter watching them.
[Frank] Nice. What you got going on?
-[smacks lips] I got this, bro. -[Frank] Nice.
She has plans, and I, uh, just didn't want--
I wanted a night off, didn't want to take care of the kids again.
-[Frank] Thanks, man. -Thanks. Uh...
Yeah.
Okay. Let's just, uh... [sniffs] Why not? Let's get into it. Um...
Andi, my wife, is on a date tonight with someone.
[stammers] A romantic date?
I think that's the hope.
-[Amy] Uh, does she know that you know? -Oh, yeah.
We are, um, testing the waters of having, uh, an open relationship.
A non-monogamous marriage.
Whoa.
-Yeah. -[imitates explosion]
-[Frank] Yeah. Cool. -[laughing]
-Did you just start it? -I hope so.
Yeah, you're literally, uh...
This is... This is night one.
-Oh, my God. -Yeah.
We've been together for a really, really long time, and, uh...
She's my best friend. She's my partner.
She's the mother of my children,
and I think we're fucking kick-ass parents together.
Um, we have a life. We have a great life.
I mean, last night we had good sex.
But it's just sort of a little less, uh...
alive than it used to be.
Sounds like you're having more sex than I am. [laughing]
[Kyle] What? Seriously?
Well, I mean, you know, it's just a quiet moment, but... [laughs]
-Get out of town. Really? -[Amy] No. Well, yeah. Yeah.
I find that shocking.
No, I mean, it's...
Thanks, but, uh, no.
After my last breakup, I-- At first, it was intentional,
and then it became unintentional at some point. [chuckles]
I'm sure there are tons of guys who would love to sleep with you.
-Thanks. Thanks. -[Frank chuckles]
But... Yeah.
[Kyle] Wow.
-Cheers. -[Justin] New beginning?
-Something like that, sounds right? -Sure.
[chuckles]
-[both chuckling] -It's so on the nose.
Where's your edge, Justin?
Well, it's that or that Irish toast where it ends with,
"May he hold you in the palm of his hand." So I thought I'd go, "New beginning."
It sounds like that song, um,
"He will raise you up on eagle's wings." You know that song?
It's my mother's favorite funeral dirge.
My mother asked me to sing it at her funeral.
-[both laugh] -I'm not a singer.
Does it make you uncomfortable when your parents ask you
-to plan for that kind of stuff? -Mnh-mnh.
-Oh, that's great. Morbid. -[both chuckle]
-I'm ready. [chuckles] -Mnh-mnh.
-[Amy] I hate to leave, but... -[Frank] You have to go walk a cat?
I'm not walking it, I'm feeding it.
The cat can wait. One more drink isn't gonna kill the cat.
Do you think you guys will, uh...
Maybe you'll be out for a while and I'll come back?
-Yeah, go walk the cat and come back. -[Amy] Okay.
Yeah, if I take care of it, then I can just... Yeah.
-This is, um... -[Kyle] Yeah. Right?
-fascinating. -[Frank] I'm down to drink.
-Okay. Um... -We'll be here.
-I've got a babysitter. -[laughs]
-Your wife's not home, okay. -[Kyle] Yeah.
I gotta go. See you guys later. [chuckles]
[both laugh]
Um...
Uh, cheers.
-Cheers. -Holy shit.
Your move.
-What do you mean? -What are you gonna do?
I'm gonna probably have another beer with you
and then go home and relieve the babysitter, and, uh...
And maybe text Amy?
-No. -Why not?
She more than insinuated she wanted to hang out later.
I do not think she was interested in chatting with me.
I want to. I hear that,
but I don't know if tonight's the night. I think...
That's fair.
You know, I'm a little drunk now, and like...
I don't know. I'm confused about this.
I actually think I want something much more anonymous.
I'm not looking to get into another relationship.
The whole goal of this isn't to add a second wife.
I just want to fuck a stranger.
That's even easier, man.
Why don't you go downtown and get a massage?
It's simple. In and out.
You'll relieve some stress. It's like a baby step. It's like tee-ball.
You mean, like, a happy ending?
Sure. Yeah. That's a good first step for you.
Is that kind of thing even real?
[chuckles]
-That was fun. -That was fun.
-Absolutely. -Yeah.
I'd like to do it again sometime.
-I'll give you a call. -Okay.
-All right. -Sounds good.
-I drove, if you need a ride. -I drove.
-All right. -Yeah. Thank you, though.
-All right. -[chuckles]
-Good night. -Bye. Oh. [chuckles]
-Take care. -Bye. You, too.
[sighs, clears throat]
Oh.
Hey.
So how'd it go?
Uh...
Not so hot. Can I get a cigarette?
Yes.
Thank you.
-My name's Jason, by the way. -Oh, hi. I'm Andi.
[chuckles]
[Jason] Mmm.
-Yeah? Do you wanna... -Come on.
[lighter clicking]
-You got it? -[laughs] Can't do it.
[lighter clicking]
-It's not working. -[chuckles] Hold on. I got it.
-All right? -Mm-hmm.
-Mmm. Thank God! -Magic touch.
How's everything feeling?
Uh, good. Great. Thank you.
[masseuse] Good.
[sighs] Is this pressure okay?
Yeah. Yep, uh, it's great.
How long have you been working here?
Um, a couple of years.
Wow.
-Brian, can I get the bill, man? -Oh, absolutely.
[chuckles] Do you, uh... What?
Do you have to know everyone's name?
-I know his name. Thank you. -That's impressive. Thank you.
Uh, listen. Do you want to get one more, back at mine?
-Okay. [chuckles] -Okay.
Um, I have to make a quick call.
I know this is gonna sound crazy, but I need to call my husband
and let him know
-that I'm gonna be later. -Right.
I get it.
[both chuckle]
[cell phone buzzing]
Do you need your phone?
No, no, I don't. Sorry, I should have turned that off.
All of your back is done,
-so you can go ahead and flip over. -Okay.
Let me just flip.
[grunts]
[sighs]
Do you have a pillow or anything?
Uh, you can scoot down.
Maybe the leg thing?
Here.
-Thanks. -Is that good?
-That's great. -Okay.
Um, this is where I offer you a hand job for $50.
Oh, wow.
-Um... -It'll be really quick.
[stammers] No, I think, yeah... I...
You're really attractive, but, uh, I'm married, so...
Okay. Everyone that comes in here is married.
It's not a big deal. Don't worry about it.
-Really? -Mm-hmm.
Um, hey, uh...
Uh, no, I don't think so. Sorry.
-You sure? -Yeah.
Okay.
Here.
[beeps]
[elevator beeping]
[Andi giggling]
[Andi laughing]
[cell phone vibrates]
[vibrates]
[Andi breathing heavily]
[both giggle]
[Jason chuckles]
[Andi moaning]
[moaning continues]
Oh, God.
[Andi breathing heavily]
[moaning]
I feel it. I feel it.
[Amy] Careful, you can accidentally get too high kind of easily, sorry.
-I should have told you first. -Now you tell me.
-That tastes good. There's a flavor. -[inhales deeply]
It's like watermelon or something.
Yeah. Maybe a little. [chuckles]
-Maybe a lot. -[giggling]
-Are you high already? -No.
You're a little giggly.
I'm not high. [chuckles] I'm just glad you're here.
Oh, good.
I'm glad I'm here, too.
-What are we doing? [chuckles] -Uh...
Yeah, um...
All right.
[stammers] I don't know. I don't know. I...
I mean, we're doing...
-Okay. -We're doing this.
If you're not okay, I totally understand.
-I'm okay. -This is brand-new for me.
-I think I understand. -Right?
And this is the first time.
This is the first time, so I don't know.
If you're asking what's gonna--
What happens tomorrow...
it's a good question.
[Andi moaning]
[grunting, panting]
[grunting]
[both breathing heavily]
[door opens and closes]
[water running]
Um, I don't think I wanna have sex with you tonight.
Yeah. Totally, I wasn't thinking that we would.
Oh, okay. [chuckles]
I don't want to have sex with you tonight.
-Okay. -Great.
Great.
-But can we keep doing other stuff? -Yeah.
[both chuckle]
Want to get under the covers?
Yeah. Sure.
-Sorry. It's cold. [chuckles] -It's cold in Chicago.
[Kyle] Is this okay?
-You sure? -Mm-hmm.
[gasps]
-[Kyle] All right? -Mm-hmm.
[Kyle grunting]
Oh, fuck.
-Is this okay? -Um, you know what?
I'm actually-- I'm really good to just take it slow.
Okay.
[Kyle sighs]
-You sure? -Yeah.
All right.
-Is that okay? -It's probably very wise.
[Kyle sighing]
-Don't get me wrong. -[chuckling]
I want to, just...
one step at a time, you know?
[Kyle sighs]
-Well, this was fun. -Thank you. [chuckles]
-You all right? -Yes, thank you.
Get home safe.
-Okay. Bye. -Bye.
Hey.
Sorry I woke you.
You didn't.
-No? [chuckles] -Will you get over here, please?
-I missed you. [sighs] -Hey. I missed you.
-Oh. -[grunts]
Oh, my God.
Yeah. Get in there.
Yes.
[both sigh]
[Kyle] Hmm.
[sighs]
-Did you have fun? -[chuckles]
It was weird.
Hmm. I had a weird night, too.
Why?
I hooked up with that girl from work.
[chuckles] Wow.
Yeah.
I had sex with a stranger.
Wow.
Do you want to talk about it?
[groans] No.
-Not now. -[both chuckle]
-Maybe in the morning. -Cool.
[Andi sighs]
-I love you. -I love you.
[sighs] I love you.
[both chuckle]
[Andi] Mmm.
[sighs]
