The Bounce Back Page #2
Oh, brother! How about this for action?
Here is to Kristin and a rare night out
among the single and sexually active.
- Woo!
- Turn up!
Oh, brother.
Cheers!
- One more!
- Ah!
- Again!
- Ah!
- Two more! I lied.
- Ah!
- You're nothing today!
- Ah!
Nobody!
You've got Big Vlad. That's me. That's it.
- Where's your head at?
- Ah!
One minute! Get your mind right.
Yeah.
Get back to work!
Why do you let him talk to you like that?
I pay him a lot of money
to talk to me like that.
He is creepy!
- You're going to stand up to him?
- I ain't afraid of him.
Oh, please!
Unbelievable!
Oh, come on T,
don't sweat that national spotlight thing.
We'll get there.
The news cycle lasts minutes these days,
either you're going viral
or you're played out, simple as that.
What?
I see you've got yourself an idea.
What? Spit it out!
- The George Addison Show.
- Don't even go there T!
- I am serious.
- Hey, what did I say?
Hear me out.
We've got to crack the bestseller top 10.
He has a nationally syndicated talk show.
I mean, we keep slipping points, we can
kiss getting to number one goodbye.
Plus, there's a relationship
between you two.
Thanks, T, the irony is not lost on me.
I don't know what you mean by that,
but we need this.
That's my family you're messing with.
What are you talking about? Listen, man,
Julie and Aleya look happier than ever.
They're not going to mind you, you know,
working on George for a break.
What is wrong with you?
Oh, man!
You're not afraid of me, huh?
You owe me some sits!
Get in there! That's it! That's good!
You must be an only child, huh?
You're one ugly kid.
Let's go faster!
- Let's go!
- Okay!
Matthew!
Matthew. Come on, dawg.
Why would you leave me in that gym
with that crazy man?
- Terry, I've got to go, man.
- Look! Hey!
I am sorry. I was out of line.
I was out of line, man. Um,
look, I know
this Bacardi-sponsored pool party.
Boy, we could slide through there,
get you a little hot girlfriend.
You know I am about to go do my seminar.
You really should come.
No, no, I'm cool, cool.
No, I have a perfectly healthy love life.
Please! No, you don't!
- How would you know?
- You're a grown man
who has never been in love,
that's how I know.
Look, man, bag yourself a girlfriend, dawg,
Think about it.
Up and coming relationship guru
comes into a love thing
with a famous Hollywood actress.
It sounds good, don't it? Do it!
It's been valuable. I am
not saying it hasn't.
I just don't know if this is for me.
I see!
And why is that you think?
No one
ever got anything they
really wanted in life
sitting around introspecting themselves.
Sometimes you have to get out
of your head and into action.
Matthew Taylor,
the person that you're quoting,
you're quoting Matthew Taylor.
No.
One can only introspect oneself,
that's what the word means.
So saying introspect oneself is redundant
Mr. Taylor doesn't know
what he is talking about
when he uses that word.
Yeah, but...
Secondly, he is a life coach,
i.e., he has no training of any kind
in psychology or human behavior.
I took his seminar last weekend
- and it changed my life.
- And it might
seem like that right now,
but in time, I assure you that you will
realize that you wasted your money.
.Really?
Yes!
- Yes!
- You should try it.
It might help you
pull the stick out of your ass.
Oh, God! I blew that one!
- Get in!
- What is this thing?
Remember that professional wrestler guy
that I kind of dated and then...
Oh, wait, hey, no, look,
as far as you're concerned,
it doesn't matter,
this is your weekend chariot.
Yeah, she is right.
Here is how it's going down,
we're going to go to your house.
You have exactly 15 minutes
to pack a bag and then
we are taking you away for the weekend.
No is not an acceptable answer.
No, we will not answer any questions,
so don't even try.
Well, here...
Here is for when your a**hole
gets too tight for its own good.
Fine, I'll take them,
but I won't take them.
- Get in!
- Okay.
- Ready?
- Yes.
We freak in my jeep
Snoop Doggy Dogg on the stereo
To the golden coast
Once you party with us
You'll be falling in love
Oooooh? Oh Oooooh?
California girls
We're unforgettable
Daisy Dukes Bikinis on top
Sun-kissed skin
So hot we'll melt your my jeep
- Hey!
- Hi!
- I am ready for the Gas Lamp.
- Oh!
Yes, but first, we're going to do
a little personal enrichment.
- What are you talking about?
- Yeah.
- Where are we going?
- You'll see.
It's going to be really exciting.
You're going to love it.
Thank you, ladies.
Now, the man you've all been waiting for.
That guy.
He is gorgeous.
Hello, ladies.
this is The Bounce Back!
What we're going to do this weekend
is delve into the strategies in creating
the kind of love that
you want for your life.
Oh, no! No way!
This is not happening, girls.
- Hey, wait, you need to be open to this.
- How many of you are here
because you've had
your heart broken recently?
That's original.
Okay. Do me a favor, keep your hands up
until I ask you to put them down, okay?
If you've had your heart broken
in the last week,
go ahead and put your hands down.
In the last month,
if you've had
your heart broken in the last month,
go ahead and put your hands down.
- Six months?
- Really?
How about the last two years?
Three years?
Five years?
- Keep it up.
- I don't want to keep it up!
Six years?
Miss?
Miss?
Miss?
- Would you mind stepping up to the mike?
- Oh, no, no, I am good.
What's your name?
Kristin Peralto.
Kristin. So how long has it been, Kristin?
It has been six and a half years.
Oh! Ooh!
Okay, okay, it's all good.
It's nothing to be ashamed of.
All of us here know how hard it is
to get over a relationship.
Kristin, if you would humor me, step up to
the mic so everybody can hear you?
I'm good. I'm good.
I'm good. I'm really good.
I'm good, I'm good.
How many of you have heard the old saying
about how long it takes
to get over a relationship?
Oh, half as long as you were in it.
There it is, that's the one I was looking
for, half as long as you were in it.
How many of you
actually agree with that theory?
Would you like to know
how long it really takes?
Yes.
Exactly as long as you want it to.
So, Kristin,
getting over a relationship
takes exactly as long as you want it to.
Yeah, if it were that easy.
- What do you do for a living?
- I am a therapist.
So you are trained to dissect the past,
to really dig into it, sift through
it in great detail, am I right?
If you insist on
grossly oversimplifying it, sure.
How is that working out for you?
I've heard your spiel
and it sounds marvelous,
who wouldn't want
to get over a painful breakup instantly?
You don't.
