1 [Mid-tempo rock music plays.]
Oh, shit.

I-I like ol-ol-ol-old older women.
I-I-I mean, I like women in in in in general.
Have you even seen a vagina before? You You mean in in real life? Like a like a br-breathing one? All right, I'm gonna take that as a "no.
" I would never hit on her anyways, you know, she's a newcomer.
But you're you're you're a new newcomer.
No.
I'm a retread, so that's technically different.
Homey like his shorties to' up from the flo' up, you know what I'm talking 'bout? Aren't you from Brentwood? Don't be hatin'! ["The Poisoned Well" plays.]
Uh my ex-husband was this big music guy, and he always went to these glamorous parties.
But he made it pretty clear that I wasn't glam enough to go with him.
You know, like, I had aged out.
[Chuckles.]
Um, but I went with him anyway, you know, just to [voice breaking.]
shame him.
I had to drink to get dressed.
I had to drink to get in the car.
[Laughing.]
I had to drink to get out of the car, and then whenever we got to where we were going, I had to throw up, of course.
Uh, my favorite thing was to throw up on the host.
Yeah, [chuckling.]
I was really into host-vomiting.
I once, uh, puked in Chris Hardwick's hair.
One day, I was pulled over by the cops on the way to a liquor store.
Yeah.
I was going 90 in a school zone in my underwear.
[Whispering.]
That's ki-ki-kind of hot.
[Whispering.]
Shut up.
[Sniffles.]
So, you know, that was my moment of clarity.
And I realized that if I didn't stop, I'd die.
But [sniffles.]
just not fast enough.
Wow, yeah.
That was, uh You really laid it out up there.
- [Sighs.]
- That was great.
- [Sighs.]
- I'm serious.
Y-You think so? Yeah.
Oh, my God, I feel like an idiot.
[Sighs.]
Yeah, well, that'll pass you know, after a couple of years.
- Ugh! - [Chuckles.]
Hey, do you have a cigarette? Uh, yeah.
Thank you.
[Clears throat.]
[Chuckles.]
Your first time smoking or Just starting.
Oh, okay.
You know, everybody needs something, right? - Yes, definitely.
- [Chuckles.]
My first sponsor used to say, "Don't get too well, too soon.
" He ended up drinking but Oh.
he's back.
He's back.
- But, you know, you get the idea.
- [Laughing.]
Yeah.
Jesus.
Is everybody in this place 10? I feel like the only one who's not getting an allowance.
On the upside, we're the only ones here not using acne drugs.
[Exhales sharply.]
Oh, yeah? Yeah.
Do you want to go somewhere? [Sighs.]
Start making out like teenagers? Yeah.
[Chuckling.]
Yeah, I do.
- Yeah? - Yeah.
[Sighing.]
Ohh.
[Sniffs.]
Ah! This is so lame, I-I I'm I-I really have to concentrate on my sobriety.
I I can't even believe I just said that.
I Yes, I do.
I have to - go.
I have to go.
- Okay.
- Oh.
That's just - I'm sorry, I gotta.
[Sighs.]
[Sighs.]
[Marc sighs.]
- What's up? - Hey.
Mm-mm.
[Sighs.]
I don't think I have to tell you this, but there's no sex here.
I know that.
I was just talkin' to her.
I assume you've heard of the 13th step? Sleeping with newcomers? Yeah, of course, it's how I got through my first year sober.
All the Al-Anon chicks wanted to fix me.
This isn't a joke, Marc.
I saw the way you were talking to Natalie.
You know, she's in a very vulnerable place.
I know that.
I'm I'm not a monster.
I'm not saying you are.
It's perfectly normal to switch one addiction for another.
Wait, somebody puts her hand on my leg and now I'm a sex addict? Just keep an eye on it.
All right, look, I I'm sorry.
I'm just squirrelly, you know? The gravity of my situation is, like, coming down on me.
And it was nice to get a little attention from a hot, broken lady.
You know what I mean? That doesn't happen too often when you live in a storage unit.
Just watch yourself.
And don't take advantage of her.
What if we mutually take advantage of each other and don't go all the way? Are you seriously asking me that? I think I'm trying to start a negotiation.
Well, it's non-negotiable.
I will throw you out of here if I catch you having sex.
[Sighs.]
What about, um, you know, over the pants? Okay.
[Slow-tempo rock music plays.]
Wow.
This place is depressing.
I need a drink just being around these people.
It's rehab, Dave.
No one comes in on a winning streak.
Well I'm just glad you're getting help, right? That's the important thing.
Oh, hey.
- What's that? - Some new clothes.
I mean, you're getting out of here eventually, right? Yeah, that's the plan.
Wow.
That's really nice of you, man.
Thank you.
What, did you take friend lessons while I've been in here? Ha.
So what else have you been doing, I mean, besides this? Besides not doing drugs? I've been thinking about not doing drugs.
I've been thinking about other things, about life.
I just, you know hey, I'm just, you know, I'm thinking.
Yeah.
Yeah, o'course you are.
What about you? What's going on? Oh, yeah, you you didn't hear, did you? Hear what? How great things are going.
I, uh married a super-rich woman.
She's actually a brain surgeon, if you can believe that.
- [Chuckles.]
- Yeah.
Okay.
I can't believe that.

It was a good one.
It was a good it was funny.
Thanks.
Hey, I thought it was worth a shot.
- Yeah.
- [Car alarm chirps.]
And, uh, if I wanted to get really specific, I would mention my wife bought this as a celebration for when she successfully separated Siamese twins who were connected at the head.
Huh? - - Wait wait.
Did I did I just enter an alternate universe? Ugh, I am so over auditioning people.
Just actors, you know, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

I made her come along.
Narcissism, meet co-dependence.
Ugh! Did you just come up with that? 'Cause it's really annoying.
Wait, are you throwing us out? - 'Cause - Yeah, I know.
Yeah.
Just bring the cup to the nurse when you're done.
Then go help set up for the meeting.

I could have had sex with her, and I didn't.
And I-I've never not had sex with somebody when I've had the chance.
It's huge, man.
You left the facility, Marc.
I get that, man, but in in the end, I made a sober decision, and I think that's a breakthrough.
Go pee in the cup.

Seriously.
I'm sorry, I'm just I'm not ready.
Um, okay.
I I'm sorry, I haven't done this in a while.
Um Oh, okay, all right.
For the newcomer, there's one thing I wish someone told me when I was a newcomer, and that's you can you can do all the things you did sober that you did when you were using.
Okay, you just can't blame drugs for doing it.
You you know what I mean? Like, if you're an asshole and you're on cocaine and booze, it's cocaine and booze's fault, right? But if you're a dick and you're sober, you know, you're just a you know, you're just a sober dick.
You know, it's it's on you, you know? Yesterday, I-I did something I haven't done in a while.
I, um I did the right thing.
Wait, I did the wrong thing first, but that's what we do.
I mean, that's our job.
You know, I-I-I didn't, you know, I took a sober pause.
I didn't you know, I I caught myself.
But, you know, there's a lot of other drugs other than drugs, you know what I'm saying? You know, like, there's There's sex, and you know, sex So What I'm saying is I didn't pick up, okay? I stayed with my feelings, which isn't easy, because my main feeling is wanting to drink over, you know, what I I-I did when I was drinking and using.
But but the bottom line is I-I-I avoided some unhealthy old behavior.
And and I am, you know, I'm I'm grateful today.
Okay? I'm I'm making, you know, better mistakes, as they say, you know, today.
Um So, uh How much time? A little over 35 minutes.
[Sighs.]
Come on.

I'm sorry, I'm just I'm not ready.
Um, okay.
I I'm sorry, I haven't done this in a while.
Um Oh, okay, all right.
For the newcomer, there's one thing I wish someone told me when I was a newcomer, and that's you can you can do all the things you did sober that you did when you were using.
Okay, you just can't blame drugs for doing it.
You you know what I mean? Like, if you're an asshole and you're on cocaine and booze, it's cocaine and booze's fault, right? But if you're a dick and you're sober, you know, you're just a you know, you're just a sober dick.
You know, it's it's on you, you know? Yesterday, I-I did something I haven't done in a while.
I, um I did the right thing.
Wait, I did the wrong thing first, but that's what we do.
I mean, that's our job.
You know, I-I-I didn't, you know, I took a sober pause.
I didn't you know, I I caught myself.
But, you know, there's a lot of other drugs other than drugs, you know what I'm saying? You know, like, there's There's sex, and you know, sex So What I'm saying is I didn't pick up, okay? I stayed with my feelings, which isn't easy, because my main feeling is wanting to drink over, you know, what I I-I did when I was drinking and using.
But but the bottom line is I-I-I avoided some unhealthy old behavior.
And and I am, you know, I'm I'm grateful today.
Okay? I'm I'm making, you know, better mistakes, as they say, you know, today.
Um So, uh How much time? A little over 35 minutes.
[Sighs.]
Come on.
