while you were sleepwalking.

It was just your subconscious trying to repair

your relationship.

(Dr. Beck) What are you saying?

(Michelle) I'm saying that I feel like somebody

would have had to suggest that she text Leo to meet her.

Normally, you'd be right.

But it's more likely she felt guilty

over not being able to give him what he wanted,

sex.

So the subconscious, once she fell asleep

Yeah.

Well, it's possible her condition is worsening.

All the bickering all the time.

If you'd listened to me, this could all have been avoided.

We'd be on the beach right now in Costa Rica

sipping Mai Tais.

And if you'd listened to me,

we'd already be bagging the next señorita,

no matter what that hippie says.

(Dr. Beck) Both of you, shut up!

(sighs)

I just want some peace and quiet.

You're about to get plenty of that, pal.

(Nicky) Don't you worry, Doc.

We're gonna be right here waiting on you.

And when you get back...

(electrical hum)

...things are gonna get real interesting.

(whimpering)

Sweet dreams!
