home every time you go see Dave? - His cabin is a two hour drive. - [exclaims] You

went to his cabin? - Yes. - Why don't you ever go

to his house anymore? I mean, what does Riana

think of all this? - I don't know. - You know, I'm sorry,

I just don't understand. Okay, what is it? Are you

running away from something? [exclaims] God, I'm sorry,

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, okay. I'm being pushy. - It's all right. - No, so I am being pushy. - I didn't say that. - It's what you meant. [doorbell rings] Dammit! - It's all right! - No, it's not all right! Okay, dinner is not ready, Joel. - I'll take over. - [Dave] Hold on,

I gotta drink here. Hold on, don't go anywhere. All right, thank you very

much ladies and germs. - [Layla] Yeah, I mean really

impressed with your meal. - Thank you, I worked

really hard on it. - Yes she did. - [Layla] I can tell. - You can tell. - [Layla] Oh, yeah. - [Dave] [laughs] It's not

your face that I'm watching. It's your ass that I see. - My husband is just crazy

about my cooking now. I mean, he used

to want to go out with the guys after work, and now he comes

home every night. Brings some of the

guys home sometimes, and it's just really

fabulous, so... - [Dave] I can live out

here as long as I want, 'cause I'm a man, that's right. [howls] - She's already accepted

into gifted school. I told you about that, right? - Well, I know

you did like all-- What, you hired somebody to find the right preschool

or something? - [Layla] Of course,

what do I know? I mean, you know, so of course, I hired somebody to really

find the best school. She's really good at

sitting at the table and... Both hands, honey bear. That's my girl. - I can't take care

of you anymore. - You don't take care of me. - I do. - No, no, no, I have a job. I'm the breadwinner. - You haven't gone into the

office for months, okay? You've been working

in the living room like a hermit in the corner. - What difference

does that make? - I cook, I feed

you, I clean up. - You want me to cook? You know I can't cook. I thought you hated my cooking? And that is why I do the dishes. [sighs deeply] - If you didn't need

me, you would leave. - That's not true. - Who's gonna take

care of me, Joel? - We'll take care of each other. - That is such bullshit. If I wanted to take

care of someone, I'd take care of a child. Look, I wouldn't take

care of my husband. And you're acting like a child. - You know when you married me that we weren't

gonna have children. It's too late for that. [dramatically sighs] - We're off to San

Francisco, baby. [laughter] Fun, fun, fun! In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida! - How many days you gonna

be at the conference? - Just three days. With the drive, we'll

be back in four. - Five! - [Joel] Bye, honey.

- [Sheryl] Bye! [beeping] [upbeat banjo music and humming] - [Phillip] Hey, dad.

- [Dave] Hey, Phillip. [sniffs] Nice thing. - [Phillip] Yeah. - [Dave] What do you call that? - A bong. - A bong? [squeaking] - Hey, baby. Qu pasa? - This is my dad. [giggles] [laughter] - Glad to meet you. Now, that was odd, wasn't it? - I'd use a stronger word. - And who was that kid

passed out on the chair? - I don't know, that was

probably some friend of his. - I bought that

chair from a little, expensive shop when

we moved in here. I paid $200 for that chair and some fat, f***

is sleeping in it! - Maybe, talk to him? - [exclaims] Just talk to him? - Yeah, yeah, it makes sense. - Yeah, right, he's

going through girls like ice cream flavors. Two weeks ago, it was Dina, I

didn't even get to meet her, and I thought that was serious! Well, you don't have this

trouble with your daughter. - And what does that

supposed to mean? - When was the last

time you talked to her? [exclaims] What?

That's why don't win any awards at these things. [engine starts] - [Joel] No.

- [Dave] Yeah. - [Joel] No, no,

no, absolutely not. I don't-- - It's the big bang, Joely! - [exclaims] Well,

you're full of it. - You said you were

in all the way, Joely. [phone rings] - [Voiceover] Hello? - Hey there, is this

Exclusive Escorts? - [Voiceover] Yes it is, where

are you calling from, sexy? - It's Davey. - [Voiceover]

[exclaims] Hey, Davey. - We're coming

into San Francisco, a buddy and I and we'd

like to get a couple girls. - [Voiceover] Sure, how many? - One for each of us. - [Voiceover] Yeah, I

have a good girl for you. Does your friend want

a blonde or brunette? - You want the brunette, right? - Yes. - [Voiceover] Yeah, I definitely

got something for ya'. - So, where's the

erotic entertainment? - Like they're

stripping or something. - So, they're gonna be naked? - Well, yeah, I assume so. - What about sensual

massage, how do we, you know? - You just pay them more. - Well, how much more? - I don't know, Joely! Slip 'em some pills. - We're not gonna date rate 'em! - Come on, they'll

probably like it. - [Joel] They're not gonna take

pills from two strange men. - They're hookers, they probably

like that kind of thing. [peaceful guitar music] - [Joel] What about Sheryl? - [Dave] What about her? - I can't afford to destroy

another marriage, Dave. - [Dave] Joely, just relax. [chattering] - [Woman] David Hutchins? - Yes. - David Hutchins, I just

finished reading your book. - Uh huh, right.

[giggling] - It is just such an

honor to meet you. - Yeah, well. [giggling] - Excuse me, I'll be over

at the hors d'oeuvres. [laughing] - All of you who represent the Marriage and Family

Therapist Association of America give selflessly

and compassionately every single day to

families in distress. Without you, the often

discouraging statistics that reflect the

state of marital and familial health in our

country would be even worse. Each year, we choose

one of our members, someone who has given

the extra effort, gone the extra mile

to serve his clients, and who has won the respect and admiration of

all of his peers. Tonight, we honor someone

who walks his talk, someone whose own

long and devoted, and beautiful marriage to

his lovely wife, Riana, who unfortunately could

not be here tonight, stands as testament to his

commitment and his values, and sets a standard we can

all look to for inspiration. Tonight, I am

delighted to present this year's award for

outstanding contribution to the practice of

marriage and family therapy to Doctor David Hutchins,

come on up here, Dave. [applause] You do us proud. - Thank you. Thank you everyone. - Are you coming over tonight? - Uh, I don't think so. - Why not, what are you

gonna be doing, sleeping? - I got plans. - You have plans? - Yeah. - Okay, tomorrow. - Well, I don't know. - Dave, you realize I'm

a busy woman, right? - Yeah. - Good, then tomorrow. I'll see you tomorrow. Hey, enjoy your piss. [laughter] [upbeat country music] - [Dave] You're gonna
