We'll be upstairs in my room studying.
Have fun.

Doesn't it make you nervous?
A boy alone upstairs with Danielle?

I don't worry about John. Both he and
Danielle are in the abstinence club.

Coffee's a little hot.

Susan was infuriated
by Paul's evasive answers.

She was convinced
he was deliberately hiding Zach

and hiding the truth.

She hoped that finding one
would lead to the other.

To succed, Susan would
have to be evasive herself.

[Doorbell]

- Susan. Long time no see.
- Mrs. Greenberg.

Do you remember those two eggs
I let you borrow last Christmas?

- I need those back.
- Gosh, honey, I'm fresh out.

- But I could run to the store.
- Oh, forget about it.

It's not that important.

But since I'm here, do you still have
that hatchback sitting in your garage?

- Can I borrow it tomorrow?
- You want to borrow my car?

Just for a couple of hours.

I'm not sure.
Do you know how to drive a stick?

Yes, I think so. I learned in college.

It's like riding a bike, right?

- I'm not sure, dear.
- It's just for a couple of hours.

I let you borrow my eggs
for a whole year.

I'm very pleased with the work
we've done in our sessions thus far.

- We're making excellent progress.
- Thank you. I feel good about it.

But there are a few areas of your
marriage we haven't covered yet.

Oh, really? Like what?

Um... I've told Dr. Goldfine
in our private sessions

that I'm not happy with our sex life.

And Rex feels that
when the two of you have intercourse,

you're not as connected as you could be.

- Connected?
- Yeah.

Like you're thinking about other things.
Is your hair messed up?

Did you buy the toothpaste?
You're just not there.

This kind of disconnect is often
a symptom of a deeper problem.

So we were talking and the idea
of a sexual surrogate came up.

This is a licensed professional
who'd work with you as a couple

on solving whatever sexual problems
you may be having.

I have an excellent referral.

And what would this
sexual surrogate person do?

- She would coach us.
- She?

She's very discreet.
You'll hardly notice she's there.

Oh. So she would be in the room with us
while we make love?

Yes. Helping us to achieve
maximum sexual potential.

- Do you have any questions?
- Just one.

How much longer
is your mid-life crisis going to last?

Because it is really starting
to tick me off.

Right. Everyone's down for a nap.

We've got no more than an hour.
Let's get cracking.

Five-card draw. Nothing wild.

- How is it going with Mike, Susan?
- It's going, finally.

We have a date next week. He's taking me
to see a play or something.

Might I suggest the Barcliff Academy
production of Little Red Riding Hood?

Oh, that's right.
The twins' stage debut.

- Are they having fun?
- Sure. They play oak trees.

I have to deal with the drama
behind the scenes.

- You've met Maisy Gibbons?
- She's a total nightmare.

- I shouldn't have challenged her.
- Oh, dear.

Now no one on the play committee
wants to talk to me.

Maisy does love
to rule her little kingdom.

Hasn't changed since Girl Scouts.
Girls smile at you to your face

then make fun of you
'cause you're not shaving your legs yet.

- [Car horn]
- That wouldn't happen in Boy Scouts.

When I worked with men,
I preferred how they fought.

A guy takes his opponent on
face-to-face,

and once he's won, he's top dog.

- It's primitive but it's fair.
- And a lot less sneaky.

Isn't it sexist of us
to generalize like this?

It's science. Sociologists
have documented this stuff.

Well, who am I
to argue with sociologists?

Wow, this guacamole has got a kick.
