Session 9 - Reflections on Work and Commitment Issues
Phil:
You think I'm doing a bad job, Mike?
Mike: [indifferently, reading an old asylum journal]
No, you're doing fine.
Phil:
This used to be a great deal. Steady gigs, joking around, beers after work...
Mike:
Hey, look, it says here that eight were committed for "uncontrolled passion.
Phil: [irritably]
Then Emma came... Don't look at me like that, man. You know that's why we lost the last two gigs. He's tired, and he overbid.
Mike: [defensively]
Gordon loves being a father.
Phil:
Yeah, now he does. Now he loves it. But it was never in his heart. This was all Wendy's idea.
Mike:
Look, Phil. Just because you say you don't want something doesn't mean you don't want it. Six years ago, I didn't want to be a lawyer, but now I'm thinking...
Phil:
Wait. Who the fuck are you kidding? You shuck fiber with us, in there, okay? But that's - that's not what I am talking about. I am talking about fatherhood. It's screwing this guy's head up, and it's fucking his job up. At the very least, he should've canned Hank's ass six months ago, and you know it!

Session 9 - Friendship Tensions and Consequences Unfold
Jeff:
What's the deal with Phil and Hank?
Mike:
What's the deal? Hank stole Phil's girlfriend! It's a nightmare! You don't wanna get involved! You especially don't want to get on Phil's bad side, he'll give you all the grunt work

Session 9 - Disturbing Rituals and Traumatic Experiences
Mike: [reading the asylum journals]
He came into her room at night wearing a black robe. He'd take her and drive her to a wooded area where her grandparents and her mother were, and they'd all have black robes on. They'd take them off and group orgies would ensue... and then they'd bring out the newborn. She was forced to watch as her mother would cut the baby's heart out with a stone dagger. She'd drink the blood; others would eat the flesh. The grandfather and father would fuck her repeatedly. She was forced to have abortions and cook the aborted fetuses.

Session 9 - The Icepick Method Explained
Mike:
The icepick method. Insert a thin metal pipette into the orbital frontal cortex. Enter the soft tissue of the frontal lobe. A few simple, smooth, up-and-down jerks sever the lateral hypothalamus... all resulting in a rapid reduction of stress for our little patient here. Total time elapsed? Two minutes. Only side-effect? Black eye. Recommended treatment? Sunglasses.
