1:25:00
I'm getting bad vibes again.
Again?

1:25:04
Yeah. When you first walked in, I
picked up on your high tension level.

1:25:09
Then after we made love, I sensed
a certain anxiety reduction,

1:25:12
but, uh, now I'm getting
definite negative Feedback.

1:25:17
When did you go
into analysis?

1:25:19
- How did you know I was in analysis?
-Just a wild guess.

1:25:23
What made you start?
1:25:26
My value system changed. One day,
I took a look at my $150,000 house...

1:25:31
and the three cars in the garage and
the swimming pool and the gardeners,

1:25:36
and I asked myself, "Why?"
1:25:39
I mean, did I really
want the whole status trip?

1:25:43
So I decided to try to find out
what I did want and who I was.

1:25:47
So you went from analysis
to Esalen to Gestalt...

1:25:51
to encounter groups to
transactional to nirvana, huh?

1:25:55
Just because some people are trying
to widen their emotional horizons...

1:25:58
doesn't make the experience
any less valid.

1:26:01
I've learned a lot.
So I've noticed.

1:26:04
For one thing, you've learned to talk as
though you're reasoning with somebody...

1:26:07
about to jump
from a high ledge.

1:26:10
Okay, okay. I know sometimes I tend
to overcompensate for my emotionalism.

1:26:16
Occasionally, there's a loss of
spontaneity. I'm working on that.

1:26:20
Well, I'm glad to hear it.
What else have you learned?

1:26:26
That behind the walls
I've built around myself,

1:26:29
I'm a warm, caring,
loving human being.

1:26:33
Well, I could've
told you that 20 years ago.

1:26:38
Tell me. How's Helen reacting
to your voyage of self-discovery?

1:26:43
Well, at first, she tended to
overreact. Oh, yeah? In what way?

1:26:46
She threw a grapefruit
at me in the supermarket.

1:26:49
Listen. It's only natural that there'd be
some interpersonal conflicts to work through,

1:26:54
but now it's cool.
1:26:57
- Helen's into pottery.
- Oh. And what are you doing for a living?
