Have fun! Hey! Oh my God, I had the best day.
My friend came to town, Sandy.
We just, like, walked around and talked, and She's a yoga teacher, so we did yoga.
Have you ever done yoga? No.
I'm really not limber.
Oh, Tyler, then you should! Tyler, you've got to move your body, you know? Wait a second, wait Hey Sandy, it's me.
I've got the best idea.
Tomorrow, during your break Why don't you come to the office, and teach everybody yoga? Yeah.
No, they're really out of shape.
It's so sad.
Hey, Dougie.
Listen, tomorrow at lunch, can I move a few of the desks around? What for? A yoga class.
I think it'd be great for everybody, right? They're cooped up in front of their computers all day, and It's for girls, right? I mean, I think probably mostly women would come, but Oh my gosh, we could use this space! We wouldn't even have to move a desk! Would they be, like, putting their legs over their heads and shit? Dougie, can we do it or not? Absolutely.
I just feel bad about what happened at the shower, you know? Yeah, it's Forget it.
It's okay.
I'm really glad you told me how you feel.
Even though it really hurt me, I'm really glad you were honest, Krista.
Mmm And, um, I wanted to give you this.
Amy, thank you.
What Wow, what is this? It's an organic hemp baby sling.
- Okay.
- Yeah, you just put it on, like this And then once you have it on, see, then you can just Put the baby right ihere.

Okay, I get it.
Yeah, I saw it at this store - That I found yesterday with Sandy, it's like - Who's Sandy? My friend from Hawaii.
Mmm.
Yeah, from treatment.
It's been so amazing, You know, having somebody here who's been through the same thing as me.
There's just this shorthand.
I felt a little isolated since I've been back With Sandy, it's just so transparent.
There's no games.
There's no ambivalence, no judgments.
She sounds great.
She's gonna actually be here tomorrow.
Yeah, she's teaching yoga at lunch, down in Cogentiva.
Krista, you should come.
I don't know, I think I'd kinda feel uncomfortable Oh no, Krista.
That's the whole point of yoga.
Yeah, it's like, uncomfortable, sticky positions, like life Mmm-hmm.
And you just And, you let it go.
Let it all go.
Yeah, it's really cool.
Thank you for my sling.
Mom? Hey.

Yep - Yeah? And then I got home, and I went through your mom's kitchen with her And we talked about all the processed foods that she's eating.
- Yeah.
Whoa.
- And what it's doing to her body.
And then, um, I tried to give her those feng shui ideas, for the living room.
And she was a little bit funny about it But, you know, kinda resistant.
And then, um, we actually had a really great conversation.
You did? We talked about her childhood, your childhood, life, everything.
It was so neat.
Okay.
I mean, that's a first, right? Yeah.
Where is she now? She's lying down in her room.
I think it was a lot.
A lot came up.
Yeah.
I want her out.
Mom! No.
She's asking all these questions about, about your father.
About how he died, and about my sexual life.
Oh, that's not funny.
I'm not kidding, Amy.
I don't want her here.
You know, some of us need people, more than flowers to communicate with.
My flowers don't judge me.
And they don't start moving my stuff around.
It's two nights.
I want her out.
It's like my best friend can't spend the fucking night! No! Well, Levi has an extra bedroom.
So, I think you're gonna be more comfortable here.
Oh my gosh, this is great.
It's gonna be awesome.
Hey, Amy Did your mom not want me at her house? Well Why do you say that? I don't know, she didn't come out of her room to say good-bye.
I just, um Was she pissed? You don't have to think about that, really.

I got caught in the most intense dialogue, all morning with Levi And we just completely lost track of time.
I mean, I didn't even get to my seminar! Are you kidding me? You haven't even left? By the time you get here and park I mean, there are people who have to go to work.
Why don't you teach it? You're great at yoga.
No, Sandy, I'm not a yoga teacher, okay? You are.
There's a pregnant woman here.
Amy, I'm so sorry.
I just, I was helping Levi You know, and I was talking to him about treatment, and Open Air, and It got really, really deep.
He was talking to me about stuff You know what? You know what? There's a room full of people who are waiting for yoga.
Okay? I can't do this right now.
Okay, yeah.
Yeah, I actually have some really bad news.
I really wouldn't worry about it.
Nobody wanted to do it anyway.
It's really not like her.
I mean She hasn't returned any of my texts.
Okay, this is getting weird.
Like, I've called them both, they're not picking up.
I've texted them both so many times and nobody's writing me back.
Maybe they're somewhere without service, you know? Maybe on a mountain.
Or on a beach.
Maybe they're sleeping.
Maybe they're sleeping together.
