take my shirt off, and you'll see this sexy body. [knocking] - [Joel] Hi, I'm Joel. - Hi, Joely. [Roxie] I'm Roxie.

- Hi, Roxie. [closing] - Aren't you cute. - Well, thank you. You look good yourself. - Yeah, thank you. - [Joel] That's a

very nice dress. - Well, thank you very much. Your eyes, they're like

bugging out or something. - That's just how I am,

I wear contact lens. - [exclaims] I see. - [Joel] So, have

you always done this? - That's a personal question. - Sorry, look I didn't mean,

I've never done this before. - It's all right. - I just want to relax. - You just want to relax? - I gotta say, this

is something new. - Wow! - What do you think of that? - [Roxie] I think that's sweet. - [Joel] Yeah?

- [Roxie] Yeah! I think I got a sweet one. - Hi you doing, Davey? - I'm doing all right. - Just all right? - [Dave] I'm doing good now. - Just good? - Very good. You haven't been seeing

other girls, have you? - Just my wife. - [exclaims] You should

tell me about it. - [Dave] It's nothing exciting. - That's too bad. You know, I like

it with girls too. - [Dave] Yeah?

- [Escort] Oh yeah, baby! [laughs] [jazzy piano music] - Looking for someone, miss? - Hi, yeah, a man. - Okay. - Of course, I'm

looking for a man, an older man, but not too old, not too old, I mean

we met online dating. - Okay. - I know, I've never

done it before. It's weird, right? Yeah, it's a date, you know. Maybe not a serious one. [laughs] I don't know, maybe

it is gonna be serious. I really don't know, you know? - So, you wanna maybe have

a seat and look for him? - Well, I guess

we have to decide what we're gonna do. - Yeah, we need to decide. - [Dave] Yeah. - Well, that depends if you

want to go straight to baseball or if you want like

lollipop with a wrapper. - Lollipop with a wrapper? - [Roxie] You know

what I'm saying? - Baseball I get. - Okay, well you

get the baseball. And then there's

like the high five. - What? - The high five. - [exclaims] The high five. - [Man] You know what's funny? You know how I got to meet you? [Man] My daughter.

- [Sheryl] Your daughter? - My daughter. She told me to get a date. I've been hanging

around too long. Get up and get out. I said, "I don't know

how to get a date." She said, "It's

easy, you go online." I thought that she was

crazy and I did it. And you know what,

she was right. Now, I'm on My Book, Homeface. There it is, you know what

I'm talking about, right? - [Sheryl] Yeah.

- [Man] Yeah. [clicks] - What's wrong, Joely? - Nothing. - Then why aren't

you looking at me? - [Joel] I don't know. - Are you married? - [Joel] No. - [Roxie] Yeah.

- [Joel] Yes. - You lying, cheating,

son-of-a-b*tch! How could you do this? - I'm sorry! - Who do you think I am? - [Joel] I'm sorry.

- [Roxie] Don't touch me! I'm gonna leave! - Don't go, don't go. - Why shouldn't I? [laughs] You're cute, you're so cute. It's okay, Joely. [deeply exhales] - Why can't a guy my age, go out with somebody he likes and have some casual fun? When I saw you,

I knew you and I, are gonna have lots of fun. Right? What? - I'm married. - Excuse me? Did you

say you were married? - [sobbing] I'm married. - [exclaims] F***! [breathing deeply] You feeling all right? - [Sheryl] No. - All right, which

house is yours? [retches] - [exclaims] No.

- [Man] F***! - I'm so sorry. [exclaims] God! [smooth jazz music] [phone vibrating] - [Roxie] What are you doing? You don't need to cover up. It's nothing I

haven't seen before. - I left your

money on the table. - [exclaims] Thank you. - I guess I better

be getting dressed. [breathing heavily] - You know, it's

really a shame Riana couldn't be here for

this wonderful weekend. - I know, she's just-- - Roxie-- - Joel, how nice to see you. - Fantastic to see you. - You know my partner, Joel? - Yes, of course. - Roxie, that's her name. - [Woman] Is everything okay? - Yes. - I don't know what to do. - Calm down, Joel. - Joel, are you

feeling all right? - Calm down? My

heart is pounding! - Joel, shut up! I'm sorry, [mumbles], excuse me. What are you talking about? Where did you get that name? - Roxie? - Yes, Roxie, where

did you get the name? - Roxie, that's her name. She's upstairs. Hey, hey Roxie, this is Dave. Dave, Roxie. Dave is a colleague and a long time friend. - You're out of your mind, Joel. - I love her. - She's a hooker,

she'll spread her legs for any dollar you throw at her. - That's enough. - [Dave] No! - Let me go. - [Dave] No! - Let me go. [pounds] I'm sorry. - [mumbles] makes sense. I look stupid. - No, no, no, I want to

take you out as my girl. Not as a hooker. - Yeah? - [Joel] Can we do that? There are these

tribal people in Bali and they produce

in their bodies, the perfect levels of

testosterone and oxytocin. Now, what do these chemicals do? If the man doesn't produce

enough testosterone, he won't feel happy. And if a woman doesn't

produce enough oxytocin, she won't feel

happy or beautiful, or sexual. [upbeat chiming music] - So, is Dave helping? - There's not much you can

do if Ben won't listen? - Hmm, Yeah. - He can't listen. It's like as men get older,

they revert back to boyhood. I can't stand it. - I think Dave's a prick. - What? - I'm sorry, but

that's what I think. So, he wrote his book,

now he's a big deal? - And men are problem solvers! They are not here to discuss! And women are

listening creatures. Discussion, sharing... We must understand how we as men and women go about communicating

and living at the simplest chemical level. - You know, I've been reading

all these different diets, but I haven't done any of them. - I need to lose weight. - You know something

without the carbs, you know, I need

to cut my carbs. - He used to want me. He used to come home from work and we had the nastiest sex! And then we had kids. - I don't think Joel is

coming back this time. - What? - We haven't made

love in two years. - Jesus, Sheryl,

he'll come back. Yeah, he'll come back. I have some meds you can take. - [Roxie] God, don't

you love this stuff? You hate it, but you love it. - I haven't had any for years. But it's good. - [Roxie] You know, it's

just gonna rot on your ribs? - I've been trying to

diet, my wife's been-- I'm sorry. - Your wife's idea, huh? - I'm sorry I brought her up. - No, that's okay. I need to go on a diet. - No, you don't. - Are you kidding? I don't know why they

keep sending me out. - You're beautiful. Is it all right, if I say that? - Yeah, of course it is. It's really crazy to

hear you say that. You're giving me goose pimples. [laughter] [phone vibrating] - You all right, baby? - [Dave] Yeah, yeah, sure. No, no, I thought maybe we could move slow, you know? - Okay baby well, you

want me to suck you slow? - No, not like that. Like I thought maybe we

could talk, you know? - Okay. - Yeah, okay. - What do you want

to talk about? - I don't know,

like how you doing? - I'm good, baby. How are you? - Yeah, it's not

easy being married. It's a lot of hard work. Some people aren't
