00:00Previously on Men in Trees...
00:02Never done a guest lecture thing before.
00:04You're a natural.
00:05They offered you a job?
00:06You are a girl who is unforgettable.
00:08I'm just not ready.
00:09Pilar Romero is one of the hottest self-help writers out there.
00:12She's left her agency.
00:14I want to work with your company.
00:15I will require something else.
00:17I want Patrick to be my lover.
00:30Hey, great sign.
00:33So, can I count on you to audition?
00:36Oh, Annie, I'd love to, but I am swamped.
00:39If I don't make some serious progress on my book, Jane is going to end our friendship.
00:43Order's up, man.
00:44Two burgers, fully loaded to go.
00:49So, uh, what's with this to-go business?
00:52Professor Fancy Pants too good to eat with us?
00:55Oh, come on. This is Jack's first lecture tomorrow.
00:57He wants to practice.
00:59Well, he should practice here. We'll heckle him. We'll do good.
01:02Yeah, I don't think heckling is the point of the practice.
01:05Thank you for the burgers.
01:06Say hi to Professor Fancy Pants for it.
01:09Will do.
01:10Are you sure?
01:11Okay.
01:13So, you guys gonna audition for my talent show?
01:17What about you, Buzz?
01:18After all, you helped me get back in touch with my love of theater.
01:21Maybe I will.
01:22You'll do no such thing, Buzz Washington.
01:24You don't have time for talent shows.
01:25You should be working as much as possible to make money as quickly as possible
01:28to get your wife out of my house,
01:29because I swear on my beloved grandma's beloved grave,
01:31if I see one more box arrived from knickknacksandnovelties.com
01:33stuffed with packing peanuts,
01:34I might lose my little sanity I've left,
01:36which is why I'm here nursing my 12th can of cola.
01:38By the way, Ben, gonna get another maybe with a lime in it?
01:40Sorry, Celia. I'm cutting you off.
01:43You've clearly had enough sugar.
01:48So, sometimes on the electric circuit, I'd jump around like this
01:50before I got on stage to make myself feel loose.
01:54Gotcha.
01:55Wanna try? Might help.
01:59I'll pass.
02:02Okay. But this time, really think loose.
02:05Got it. Loose.
02:07Recently, scientists have suggested that the expansion of sea ice in the Bering Sea
02:20during the neoglacial period may explain several unresolved phenomena.
02:25Okay. That's great. Great. Much better.
02:28Yeah? Much.
02:29But remember, college kids get restless.
02:33So, even more eye contact.
02:35Maybe look up, like, every third word.
02:37Right. Okay.
02:39Okay.
02:41Phenomena that may include, but are not exclusive to,
02:46the alteration of the distribution of North Pacific mammals.
02:52Answering genetic questions.
02:54Okay, forget that.
02:55The eye contact thing is throwing you off a little.
02:58I'm sorry. This is taking so long.
03:01You wanted to finish your chapter tonight.
03:03Why don't you work on your book? I'll be fine.
03:04Don't be silly. My schedule's flexible.
03:06I'm that far from fine, huh?
03:09It was so easy when I was just talking off the cuff in Julia's class.
03:11Okay, so ditch the notes.
03:15Just talk.
03:16What made humpback whale migration patterns change?
03:19The climate cooled during the neoglacial period.
03:22And?
03:23The cooling created sea ice, so the whales couldn't get through.
03:26They had to take a detour.
03:27Which explains why we find fossils where they shouldn't be.
03:31What?
03:32Yes.
03:33Miss first.
03:34Alrighty, that is like a million gazillion times better.
03:36A million gazillion?
03:37At the very least.
03:39Just talk like that.
03:40You will be fine.
03:41Thanks.
03:42Coach.
03:43Alright, I should probably get to bed.
03:44I gotta get on the road at 4am.
03:45Sleep well, Professor Fancypans.
03:46Would you stop calling me that?
03:47Well, I would be happy to confirm that reservation for you.
03:49But I'd be remiss if I didn't tell you that if you moved your honeymoon back three weeks, you'd be able to catch the Elmo and talent show.
03:56Which is...
03:57No problem.
03:58We'll just stick with the original dates.
03:59You're all set.
04:00You're in this talent show, I hope.
04:01Uh, no problem.
04:02Bye now.
04:03Hi.
04:04Uh, no, probably not since I'm directing.
04:06I have something.
04:07I have something.
04:08Well, I'll be happy to see you.
04:09And see if you're in the mood, I'm going to get some information for you, but I'd be remiss if I didn't tell you that if you moved your honeymoon back three weeks, you'd be able to catch the Elmo and talent show.
04:16Just...
04:17No problem.
04:18We'll just stick with the original dates.
04:19You're all set.
04:20You're in this talent show, I hope.
04:22Uh, no problem.
04:24Bye now.
04:26Hi.
04:27Uh, no.
04:29Probably not, since I'm directing.
04:31I have something for you.
04:34But it's not my birthday.
04:36Or my half-birthday.
04:38Go and open it.
04:41I love presents.
04:46It's the complete works of Krejci's most famous playwright.
04:50I doubt it might inspire you as you undertake your theatrical journey.
04:55Thank you so much.
05:01Anyway, one date. Just one.
05:05I'm sorry, Ivan, but I'm just not looking to date right now.
05:09So if there are strings attached to this book, I should probably give it back.
05:13There are no strings.
05:14But I'm not going to give up.
05:16I wish you would.
05:18No, you don't.
05:21Hey, this is Patrick.
05:23You've reached the Elmo Inn.
05:24Recently voted the best in only accommodations in Elmo.
05:28We'll be back, so let us know who you are and where we can reach you.
05:35Hey, this is Patrick.
05:37You've reached Alliance Literary.
05:39Recently voted by me.
05:41The number one place to work, if you have to work.
05:44Oh, hey, Judy.
05:46Amy's in a meeting.
05:47Can I put you through to her voicemail?
05:49You got it.
05:52Patrick, can you come into my office, please?
05:55Sure thing, boss. Over and out.
05:56Thanks.
05:58And again, you don't have to say over and out.
06:00Roger, Dodger.
06:01Or Roger, Dodger.
06:03Copy that.
06:07Come in.
06:09What can I do you for?
06:11Have a seat, Patrick.
06:14Your breakfast sandwich didn't come with ham instead of sausage again, did it?
06:18My breakfast sandwich is fine.
06:20And again, I'm sorry for overreacting yesterday.
06:23Oh, hey, no, that was a totally normal reaction.
06:27Very crazy, lady.
06:28The truth is, Patrick, you've been doing a great job here.
06:31So great, I'm about to give you a very special assignment.
06:36No way.
06:39Way.
06:40Now, as you know, we're looking for a big publisher for Pilar Romero's new book.
06:45That book's going to be huge.
06:47I agree.
06:48Which makes Miss Romero a very important client.
06:51And I am assigning you to be her personal liaison.
06:55Come on.
06:59High five.
07:00Oh, okay.
07:03So what does a liaison do, exactly?
07:06I mean, besides liaison, which I totally get.
07:09Kind of.
07:10Scheduling, press, publicity, it all goes through you.
07:13Anticipate our needs.
07:16Whatever they may be.
07:17You got it.
07:18You are not going to regret giving me this assignment.
07:22I'm going to be all over Pilar Romero.
07:24Well, sure.
07:26That would be fine.
07:32Bad girl.
07:33You're a very bad girl.
07:36Bad, bad girl.
07:39Stop.
07:40No.
07:40Bad, bad girl.
07:42Stop.
07:43I'm glad to see you're talking to puppies and not students.
07:46You mock, but office hours don't sound much different.
07:49Oh, how did your lecture go?
07:50I'm so sorry I missed it, but I...
07:52Oh, no, stop.
07:53No.
07:54No.
07:54Lecture was fine.
07:55What's with the puppies?
07:58Gary's dog gave birth.
08:00She's pregnant?
08:01Yeah.
08:02I found homes for three of them, but these four are left.
08:04And I can't keep them, because Jim does the sculpting from home,
08:06and with the buzzsaw going, it's just too dangerous.
08:08So I thought my students might want them,
08:09but apparently there's a no pets rule at the dorm.
08:11I'm just at my wits' end, Jack.
08:13I don't know what to do.
08:14Bad girl.
08:16One quick question.
08:18Shoot.
08:19Are you out of your mind?
08:27Four dogs.
08:28Four dogs.
08:30Just don't find him home.
08:32Didn't know what else to do.
08:33Well, why did you have to do anything?
08:35Jim works out of his home.
08:38He has all these buzz saws lying around, which are dangerous.
08:40Yeah, what about my sharpened pencils?
08:42They can be dangerous, too.
08:44Sharpened pencils?
08:44Seriously, what were you thinking?
08:48They're Gary's dog's litter.
08:51So I guess I felt a little responsible.
08:54Oh.
08:55I get it.
08:57I can help out.
09:00Temporarily.
09:01You're the best.
09:02You're the best.
09:02Oh, stop.
09:04By stop, I mean please, come on.
09:09I'm sorry, but I'm just not sure that telling fortunes really qualifies as a talent.
09:14Can you do it?
09:15Well, no.
09:16Exactly.
09:17So this is how it's going to work.
09:19I'm going to choose someone from the audience.
09:20Totally at random.
09:22Or a plant.
09:22I haven't decided which yet.
09:24Then, I am going to blow that person's mind with my amazing predictions.
09:30Want me to do you?
09:31Oh, no, that's okay.
09:34Imagine me wearing all black, so I'm all dramatic and spooky.
09:40Okay, choose a stack.
09:41Oh, you're going to fall in love.
09:53Me?
09:55I, no, that's not possible.
09:57What are you doing here?
09:59Auditioning for the talent show.
10:00Oh, good idea.
10:01Do magic.
10:02Show everyone how you make $10,000 disappear.
10:05No, I'm singing.
10:07The gambler?
10:08No, I got you, babe.
10:11Who are you planning on singing it?
10:13You.
10:14Yeah, right.
10:15Hope you got a plan B.
10:17No plan B.
10:19If you don't sing it with me, I'll sing it alone.
10:23They say we're young and we don't know.
10:27We won't find out until we grow.
10:32Well, I don't know if all that's true.
10:35Because, baby, you got me and I got you.
10:38You stupid old man.
10:39Babe, I got you, babe.
10:43No, you don't.
10:45I got you, babe.
10:46In your dreams, Sonny.
10:48I got you, babe.
10:52Want to take your third cup before 9 a.m.?
11:03You're allowed to suspend health and hygiene when you're writing.
11:06It's a rule.
11:07You say so.
11:08How's it going?
11:09Oh, I think I'm starting to see the slightest, blink-and-you-might-miss-it glimmer of the light of day.
11:15Sounds good.
11:16Hey, uh, you, uh, sure you're gonna be okay with these dogs?
11:19No.
11:20I'll be fine.
11:21Okay.
11:22Call me if you need anything.
11:24I will.
11:26And, uh, don't suspend hygiene.
11:28Hello?
11:35Hola, Marin.
11:36Como esta?
11:37That's why I'm practicing my Spanish because I'm Pilar Romero's personal liaison.
11:43For you to be impressed.
11:45Oh, I'm impressed.
11:47Sounds like you're doing great over there.
11:49I am.
11:50You know, I took this job as a temporary thing, but I'm really starting to get into it.
11:55So, listen, heads up.
11:57Jane's been throwing around the word deadline, and Marin needs a...
12:00Oh, no.
12:01Thanks for the warning.
12:02That's what I'm here for.
12:04Miss Frist for Miss Burns.
12:06Hello?
12:07Jane, Jane.
12:09You know why you're such a good editor.
12:12You never pressure me.
12:14You understand that books need time to gestate.
12:17Make sure yours is gestated by January 1st.
12:20You're really giving me a deadline on a book?
12:24Stewart's marketing team wants it in beach bags.
12:26Oh, so that's what creativity has come to?
12:29Beach bags?
12:30Ah!
12:31No!
12:31Those are my notes!
12:32Honey?
12:33I'm gonna have to call you back.
12:34Stop!
12:38Okay.
12:39Pick a card.
12:40Any card.
12:43You got something to say to me, woman?
12:45Say it.
12:45Why'd you have to rile my up?
12:47Now, look at your card.
12:49Quit laughing.
12:50It's not funny.
12:53What's she buying now?
12:55Porcelain dolls.
12:57Now, was your card the seven of hearts?
12:59No.
13:00Six of hearts?
13:01No.
13:01Five of hearts?
13:02No.
13:02Shoot!
13:02Come on!
13:04All right!
13:06Who wants to adopt an adorable furry friend for life?
13:09Oh, shucks are they?
13:12Oh, well, technically they might rejects, but they are up for adoption.
13:16Here.
13:17Oh, look at that.
13:18He locks you.
13:19Oh, Buzz!
13:20Buzz.
13:22Come on.
13:24You two were made for each other.
13:26Celia!
13:27Keep that thing away from me, Chris.
13:30Celia adopted an old retired police dog named Woodruff.
13:33She passed about seven years ago.
13:35She still hasn't quite recovered yet.
13:36Oh, that's too bad.
13:38But I bet she'd never give up those precious years.
13:41So, how about it?
13:43Not on your life.
13:45I can barely look after myself.
13:47Oh, I'm sorry.
13:49We're still struggling to paper train Ivan.
13:51Oh.
13:53Okay.
13:54Do you know how much hard work puppies are?
13:56Hmm?
13:56Uh, yeah.
13:57I do, actually.
13:59Oh, no.
14:00No.
14:00Stop.
14:00Stop.
14:01Cut it out.
14:01You guys.
14:02Sit.
14:03You're all over the place, Chris.
14:05Puppies respond to clear commands, repetition, and timely rewards.
14:08Okay.
14:09That's good to know.
14:10These dogs need boundaries.
14:11ASAP.
14:12Luckily, I happen to teach an obedience class, and I've got a spot available.
14:16Oh, you didn't like dogs?
14:17No, I don't like to touch them.
14:18I love to teach them.
14:20Oh, okay.
14:21Well, I don't think I'm going to get involved in dog school right now.
14:23You'll unload them quicker if they're better behaved.
14:26Maren, unless that's Jerome's, I'm going to have to ask you to leave.
14:30Oh!
14:31Oh, sign me up.
14:33Annie, sorry to interrupt, but I can't wait any longer.
14:51I want you, my little theater director, and I won't take no foreign answer.
14:56Kiss her neck a lot.
15:03Huh?
15:04Drives her crazy.
15:06Huh?
15:07Patrick?
15:08Patrick?
15:08Mm-hmm.
15:09Huh?
15:10Oh!
15:10Oh!
15:10Oh!
15:13Oh!
15:22Oh!
15:23Oh!
15:27Come, come, come!
15:28Come, come, come, come. Come, come, come. Come on.
15:31More puppies.
15:33Uh, suppose you want to adopt four puppies?
15:38Uh, no. At least I don't think I do.
15:41And again, I don't know what I want anymore.
15:43Is everything all right, Annie?
15:44No. I had a dream about Ivan.
15:50So?
15:51So? I don't want some shirtless Croatian running willy-nilly around my dreams.
15:56Shirtless, huh?
15:57I am not ready for a relationship.
16:00Who said anything about a relationship?
16:02Have a fling!
16:03No! This period of my life is not supposed to be about boys.
16:07It's supposed to be about theater.
16:08The heart wants what the heart wants.
16:10Well, I refuse to accept that.
16:11I will make mine want what I want it to want.
16:14Wouldn't that be nice?
16:17Uh, hey, Elmo.
16:20Annie and I were just talking about matters of the heart.
16:22We all have emotional boundaries that we set for ourselves.
16:26But all too often, we cross them.
16:29With authority and repetition, we can train animals to think and act a certain way.
16:35But how about when it comes to ourselves?
16:38Can we train our emotions to sit and stay?
16:42Hey, how was your day?
16:54Long.
16:56But, that's fine.
16:57You?
16:58Oh, not bad.
16:59I had a bunch of emails from students today.
17:01Telling you how great your first lecture was?
17:03Asking for an extension on their first paper.
17:05Lots of grandmothers having surgery this week.
17:07Oh, maybe I can use that excuse on Jane.
17:11She gave me a deadline.
17:12Can you believe it?
17:14Well, you get deadlines all the time.
17:15On magazine articles, not books.
17:17Books can't be rushed.
17:19Oh, don't stress.
17:21You'll get a done coach.
17:22You always do.
17:24Any breakthroughs today?
17:26Oh, yeah.
17:27Tons.
17:28Well, names.
17:29Flopsy because of his ears.
17:33Big Paws for obvious reasons.
17:36Sir Pants a lot for reasons that become evident after he runs.
17:40And, uh, Uncle Nat.
17:41Yes, he looks like my Uncle Nat.
17:44Of course.
17:45Can you take them to a training session tomorrow at noon?
17:48Ah, shoot.
17:49I can't.
17:50I got a meeting at Ketchikan.
17:51I can do it over the weekend.
17:55The class is tomorrow.
17:57Oh.
17:59It's fine.
18:00I'll just do it.
18:08Hello?
18:09Oh, hi, Julia.
18:12Um, you know, not bad.
18:14We're holding up.
18:17Well, I'm glad we could help.
18:19Here he is.
18:21It's Julia.
18:23She can't find the gas bill.
18:24Oh, hey, I mailed it.
18:26I saw it sitting on the counter.
18:27I should have left you a note.
18:29No, no, no.
18:30The puppies are doing great.
18:32It's no problem at all.
18:35Above all, be clear and direct in your interactions.
18:39And never be afraid to let someone know that you're interested.
18:42Let's go get a drink.
18:49Let's go get a drink.
18:51She's a swarming with press.
18:53In case you forget who anyone is, just give me the signal.
18:55Got faces and names committed to memory.
18:59Additionally, most are wearing name tags.
19:01How do you like your martini?
19:02Oh, I shouldn't drink since I'm on the job.
19:05What if I insist?
19:07I guess technically I'd have to.
19:10He'll have a martini.
19:11Extra dirty.
19:12Okay, then.
19:14So there are four publications you should sit down with before...
19:17Patrick, I don't want to talk about business anymore.
19:20What do you want to talk about?
19:22You.
19:23Oh, uh, not much to tell.
19:26Got amnesia a couple months ago, so you know almost as much as I do.
19:31Oh, poor thing.
19:33Tell me, do you think you'll ever get your memory back?
19:36No one knows.
19:37There's all kinds of strange cases out there.
19:41Sometimes people just wake up and remember.
19:43Other times a shocking event can jolt the mind back.
19:47How about mind-blowing intercourse?
19:50Can I ask you a question?
19:56I'm an open book on sale next spring for $21.99.
20:00Right, well, I'm already ready at sea,
20:02and you talk about the signs you send when you're trying to seduce someone.
20:05Like?
20:06Ugh, talking about sex, making physical contact,
20:13licking your lips to draw attention to your mom.
20:16Are you hitting on me?
20:18Honey, if you have to ask,
20:21it's because I'm not being clear enough.
20:25Go!
20:31And she's pre-sold all over Europe, Latin America.
20:34Sorry to interrupt.
20:36Bill, James, Andy.
20:38I've got to talk to you for a second.
20:39Of course.
20:40Will you excuse me?
20:41Okay.
20:42Is everything okay?
20:44Polar is hitting on me.
20:45That was the emergency.
20:46I know that there's a strict company policy about remaining professional in the presence of authors,
20:50and you've given me this awesome opportunity that I don't want to mess up.
20:54Slow down.
20:56Are you attracted to her?
20:58I'm not gay.
21:00Then go for it, honey.
21:01Oh, what about the policy?
21:03Oh, I think it's okay in this case.
21:05Since you're part of the reason Pilar signed with us.
21:09What?
21:09She told me she was hot for you.
21:11I put you two together.
21:14You pimped me out?
21:15Oh, come on.
21:17You're single.
21:17She's gorgeous.
21:18What's the big deal?
21:19The big deal is I thought I got this assignment based on my merits, not on my looks.
21:23Because you're apparently a lot better than I thought they were.
21:26You're late, Brist.
21:41Who's the first one here?
21:42Because you're the only one taking the class today.
21:44Doesn't mean you're not late.
21:45Now, before we get started, I'd like to take a moment of silence
21:51in honor of Woodruff, a spectacular canine
21:55who served the public faithfully and devotedly until his untimely death.
22:01All right, let's go.
22:02All right.
22:03Now, do you know anyone, maybe a student who wants a dog?
22:07Always have a beg of treats handy to reward good behavior.
22:10Got it.
22:10Let's see you walk him.
22:14Come on.
22:15You're all over the place, Brist.
22:18Now, get a tighter hold on their leashes.
22:20Choke up.
22:20No slack.
22:21Oh, okay, okay.
22:23Walk slower.
22:25Don't let them walk in front of you.
22:26Okay.
22:28Keep a firm, steady gait.
22:31Stay in front.
22:32Pick up the pace if you have to.
22:33Remember, you're the alpha dog.
22:35Give those puppies a reason to respect you.
22:37This is nothing for me or the dogs.
22:39If you can't set boundaries, how are they supposed to respect them?
22:42Now, make the dogs heal.
22:44Heal.
22:44Heal.
22:46Heal.
22:47Now, say it like you mean it.
22:48Heal.
22:50Impressive.
22:51What are you doing here?
22:53I just thought I'd swing by before I'm on an audition to see how you're doing.
22:56Practice of walking dogs.
22:58Oh.
22:59Come on.
23:00Come on, Flopsy.
23:01Oh, oh, oh.
23:02Come on, Flopsy.
23:04Flopsy really wants you.
23:05Yeah, that's because I got a pocket full of treats.
23:07Flopsy, come on.
23:08So, do you want me to help you rehearse your act or what?
23:12Yeah.
23:16There we go.
23:17And for my finale, I am going to pull a rabbit out of this totally empty hat.
23:44See?
23:49Totally empty.
23:50Right?
23:51Oh, right.
23:57And yet?
24:00Voila!
24:01No, I'm sorry.
24:07I'm just going to hit the pause button.
24:08This should just take a minute.
24:09Okay?
24:10Sure.
24:10Take your time.
24:11What are you doing here?
24:16I want to audition.
24:18To do what?
24:20Dance.
24:21Ivan, I get that you like me.
24:22And I'm flattered.
24:24I am.
24:25But I don't know how I can make it any clearer.
24:28I'm just not interested in you.
24:30And you're not interested in me either.
24:32I'm not?
24:33You're an athlete.
24:34I'm a challenge.
24:35It's what you thrive on.
24:36The reason I like you has nothing to do with that.
24:40It has to do with the kind of person you are.
24:42And what kind of person is that?
24:44The kind that celebrates half birthdays.
24:49Can I audition her?
24:51Please, go.
24:53Don't make a mockery of my audition.
24:55This is a serious theatrical undertaking.
24:57Hey, stop!
24:59Peter Cottontail!
25:00Peter Cottontail!
25:06Thank you for not buying anything online in the last hour.
25:14Here, have a cookie.
25:18I mean it.
25:19Thank you for not buying any more porcelain dolls.
25:23You're a very good girl.
25:24If you think I'm a good girl for that,
25:28wait till you see the work I did on your garden.
25:29What did you do?
25:30Oh, just brighten the place up a little bit.
25:32Pulled some weeds.
25:33Planted some flowers.
25:35Hey, gonna get another cookie or what?
25:47The ashes of my dog were here.
25:50No problem.
25:50They're still here.
25:52They're just all over.
25:53Hey, Ricks.
25:54With my brand new rick that I bought online for only $19.99.
25:58I didn't want the ashes all over.
26:01I wanted to be able to stand in this one specific place
26:04and know they were here.
26:12Hey, I'm taking off.
26:14Can I ask you something, boss?
26:16Yeah.
26:16Does this look silly?
26:19Hey.
26:35Well, um, you know, you're miming, so define silly.
26:41Uh, it's just, Patrick and I would have done an act together if he was here, and I was thinking maybe I'd do one alone.
26:52Go for it.
26:53Maybe I will.
26:54Maybe I will.
26:54Well, thanks.
27:01Are you okay?
27:05Oh.
27:06Uh, well, is there anything that I can do to help?
27:10Come in the box?
27:11Thanks.
27:11What?
27:12Oh, no, I can't.
27:13I'm not a talent show guy.
27:15Just for a second.
27:16Thanks.
27:34I don't love being in the box alone.
27:37Well, the box can be a very lonely place.
27:41I know.
27:42But just because your box is lonely doesn't mean you should jump on the nearest hockey stick, right?
27:50Uh, right.
27:51But what if that hockey stick is more than just a regular hockey stick?
27:55What if it's a sensitive hockey stick that you kind of like?
28:01Uh, well, if, you know, you like the new hockey stick, go for it.
28:07But what if every time I use the new stick, I think of Patrick?
28:10Patrick, uh, when you're ready to let go, you will.
28:22Want to take a war?
28:23Not a chance.
28:24You're not supposed to sound concerned when you call me out.
28:30When you call me out.
28:33You're late.
28:36You said you'd be out by seven.
28:38I know.
28:39Sorry.
28:40Annie got upset.
28:41I'm just trying to help her.
28:43Oh, of course you were.
28:45What's wrong?
28:46Nothing.
28:47I'm glad you could be there for Ian.
28:49And for Julia.
28:50Maybe I should take a number.
28:51What's going on?
28:52It just seems like you have time for everyone but me.
28:55What do you need?
28:56Help.
28:57Jack, I needed help.
28:58Okay, okay.
28:59Give me the leashes.
29:00No problem.
29:01I'll walk the dogs.
29:04Maren.
29:05I have to get some work done.
29:08Come here, boy.
29:09Hey.
29:13Hey, hey, come back.
29:18Hey, come back.
29:22The little one just jumped out the window.
29:23Well, of course he did.
29:24It's Uncle Ned.
29:24He's a jumper.
29:25That's why I leash him inside the pen.
29:27I didn't know.
29:28I'm glad you didn't.
29:29She brought him forward.
29:30Probably she dumped him in my lap
29:31and left me to deal with all the mess.
29:46Patrick?
29:47Can I see you in here?
29:51Yep.
29:52Great.
29:54Roger, Dodger.
29:55I'm sorry.
30:11I should have told you about Pilar's intentions
30:12and let you make your own decision.
30:15Yeah, you should have.
30:17Whatever you do or don't do with Pilar is up to you.
30:21And if she has a problem with that,
30:23she'll deal with it because
30:24you are more valuable to this company than she is.
30:30Don't you underestimate yourself, Patrick O'Bachelorten.
30:36You're a lot more than just a pretty face.
30:39You have transformed this office.
30:41You're hard to say that.
30:41I know, I know, but it's true.
30:44Office morale is better.
30:46Customer relations are better.
30:47Your color-coded post-it system is a real time saver.
30:52I didn't think you noticed.
30:54Thanks, Jane.
31:00Just to let you know,
31:02the deli didn't make a mistake this morning.
31:05I told him to put ham in your breakfast sandwich.
31:07I sort of figured.
31:09Mine feels really bad.
31:36Mine just...
31:38It's Miss Woodruff, you know?
31:43Yeah.
31:45It's been hard for you, baby, huh?
31:48Patrick, leave again.
31:51I don't want to attach to anything anymore.
31:55It's just too painful when it's gone.
31:57Sooner surrender
32:01Than watch the last
32:06War collapse
32:08Sooner surrender
32:12I'll offer count forever
32:17What are you doing here?
32:34What are you doing here?
32:36I want to audition.
32:38You deserve a shot.
32:41Fine.
32:43Dance.
32:44I need to park
32:47After this
32:51I will leave you alone.
32:54Pickies, where are no backsies?
32:57I don't know what that means.
32:59You promise?
33:02I promise.
33:03Where'd you learn how to do that?
33:13I took years of dance in Croatia.
33:18It helps with the footwork on the ice.
33:20So, am I you?
33:35You're in.
33:36Uncle Ned!
33:45Here, boy.
33:46Maren.
33:47What?
33:48We looked here an hour ago.
33:50If you want to go home, go home.
33:52Uncle Ned!
33:53I don't want to go home.
33:54I'm just saying it's been three hours.
33:56Yeah, you're tired.
33:56I get it.
33:57No problem.
33:57I can deal with this, too.
33:59Yeah, come on.
34:00What?
34:01I get it.
34:01You're mad.
34:02Yeah, I am.
34:03Just so you know,
34:04writing doesn't get done by itself.
34:05It gets done because I get it done.
34:07After hours and hours,
34:08I'm not getting it done
34:08because writing is hard work.
34:10I know that.
34:10Just because I work from home
34:12doesn't mean I don't have a real job.
34:13I never said it wasn't.
34:14Yeah, well, then why did you think
34:15it was okay to leave four dogs in my office?
34:18That's not fair.
34:19You want to talk about fair?
34:21I have no idea you were so put out.
34:22Well, you should have thought about it.
34:24I did.
34:24That's why I asked you repeatedly
34:25if it was all right.
34:27If you were so unhappy,
34:28why didn't you say anything?
34:31I don't know.
34:34Uncle Ned!
34:35Hey.
34:47Hey.
34:50Look,
34:51I feel terrible
34:53about losing Uncle Ned
34:55and about making you feel taken advantage of.
34:57Well, as a wise dog trainer once said,
35:01how can you expect anyone to respect your boundaries
35:03if you don't lay them out?
35:05You're right.
35:06I said I was fine.
35:07I don't usually say things are fine
35:09when they're not fine.
35:11Why did you?
35:12I don't know.
35:14I think since you've been back,
35:20I've been so worried about your needs
35:22that I trained myself not to think about mine.
35:25I had no idea.
35:29Well, how could you?
35:29I didn't say anything.
35:32But this is your notice.
35:33This girl's needs are about to be met.
35:35Fair enough.
35:35Need number one?
35:36Shoot.
35:37I know you feel this giant sense of responsibility
35:40and I admire that.
35:42I do.
35:43But you can't be everybody's hero all the time.
35:46Because if you are,
35:48it leaves less of you available for me.
35:51And that's not fair.
35:53Because you need me.
36:01I do.
36:03But not as a hero.
36:05As my partner.
36:07Okay.
36:08You got it.
36:09I have thought about this a lot.
36:24And even though I am attracted to you...
36:26I'm attracted to you, too.
36:28Right.
36:29The thing is, we're working together
36:31and I don't think it's a good idea
36:32to mix business with pleasure.
36:35Look, Patrick.
36:37I like you.
36:38And, yeah,
36:39some of that is the raw animal instinct
36:42of having your face in between my breasts,
36:45but it goes deeper than that.
36:48Stop.
36:49It doesn't have to.
36:50The men I meet, they're already damaged.
36:53They have been cheated on.
36:54They have been dumped.
36:56They are transgendered.
36:58But you, you're a blank slate.
37:01Yeah.
37:02So refreshing.
37:04But if you are intent on maintaining
37:06personal and professional boundaries,
37:09I understand.
37:12I am.
37:14So I quit.
37:21Let's get back to your place
37:23and do that breast thing.
37:24Sounds great.
37:25Oh, wait.
37:26I have to run to the bathroom.
37:27Don't move.
37:28I mean, you can move.
37:29Just don't go anywhere.
37:43Find a partner yet, old man?
37:46Just waiting on you.
37:47Enjoy the wait.
37:48It's going to last forever.
37:50Hey.
37:50Professor Fancy Pants emerges
37:54from his ivory tower.
37:56I warned you.
37:57You did.
37:58So, you know that colleague of mine
38:00who wanted one puppy next week?
38:01Yeah.
38:01I talked him into two puppies.
38:03She might want to say goodbye to
38:04Big Paws and Sir Pancy Lopes.
38:06Oh, I'm actually going to miss you guys.
38:10Hey, where's Flopsy?
38:13Celia?
38:15Come back in half an hour.
38:16No can do.
38:17Why is that?
38:22It's for you.
38:23I don't want a dog.
38:25Yes, you do.
38:27Loving anything or anyone
38:29is difficult and risky.
38:31But at the end of the day,
38:33it's worth it.
38:35If you close yourself off,
38:37you might not be able to open up again.
38:41So what do you say?
38:43Will you keep Flopsy?
38:47His name is Woodruff II.
38:53All right.
38:54Give me a kiss.
38:56No, not you.
38:57You stay.
38:58No, not you.
38:58No, not you.
38:59No, not you.
39:00No, not you.
39:01No, not you.
39:01No, not you.
39:02No, not you.
39:02No, not you.
39:03No, not you.
39:03No, not you.
39:04No, not you.
39:04No, not you.
39:04No, not you.
39:05No, not you.
39:06No, not you.
39:07No, not you.
39:08No, not you.
39:09No, not you.
39:10No, not you.
39:11No, not you.
39:12No, not you.
39:13No, not you.
39:14No, not you.
39:15No, not you.
39:16No, not you.
39:17No, not you.
39:18No, not you.
39:19No, not you.
39:20No, not you.
39:21No, not you.
39:22No, not you.
39:23stop jiggling you patrick i gotta get out of here oh my god amy's gonna forget about me
39:37no she's not gonna forget about you you matter to her you don't forget about the people you care
39:41i love you rana patrick tag me i will never quit it's okay patrick we're a team
39:47will you please bury me
39:51oh my god i remember everything i gotta get back to elmo
40:03the mind is a funny thing it's the place from which everything emanates
40:10yet no one can access anyone else's which means we've got to communicate
40:17with animals we use only the most straightforward language words like sit
40:23stay no but between one another things quickly get complicated what we say is not always what we
40:32mean i knew this was a bad idea and at times we have to fight through mixed messages
40:43or start all over again
40:49hey there this is annie and you've reached the warmest spot in the coldest state
40:53the elmo in please leave your name but no matter how hard it is and how often we feel misunderstood
41:00it is our responsibility to keep fighting for clarity
41:13because in the end we teach people how to treat us
41:17which means the responsibility to communicate lies not on the shoulders of others but on ourselves
41:25and now i see clearly it's you i'm looking for
41:32oh
41:34oh
41:36oh
41:38oh
41:40oh
41:42oh
41:44oh
41:46oh
41:48oh
41:50oh
