Doctor.

Rex, a pleasure to meet you.

My name is

Dr. Michael Pariser.

I am a doctorate in psychology

and a licensed psychologist.

- Hi.

- Hi.

- How are you, doctor? -Well, I'm

okay, but here's a better question.

How are you

and what brings you here?

Um, I have a bit of

an addiction to all things sex.

Can you tell me where you think

this all came from?

Yeah, I'm pretty sure, you know,

it stems from me being molested

when I was

about eight years old.

Hmm, how do you feel about that?

I mean, I felt awful.

When my parents came in,

they interrupted.

They didn't even ask me

if I wanted to continue.

I mean, they could've just...

When they came in,

they could've been like,

"son, do you wanna continue?"

Like, I have a choice

too in this matter, right?

- Hmm.

- Right?

Don't you think so?

No?

Hmm.

So, it sounds like sex

occupies a large portion of

your at least available time?

And if you gave it up,

what else would you do?

Um, I mean, I enjoy drawing,

I enjoy reading.

Uh-huh.

Um, badminton...

Definitely underrated.

I don't know

if you've ever played.

I have.

It's a sweet deal.

I feel like it's just

so hard for me to...

To think of anything

outside of sex.

You sound really torn

about this.

Yeah, I mean,

it's tough when people,

you know, at work,

wanna go out for drinks

and you can't go out for drinks

because you have to get home

to get the demons

out of your penis, you know.

- You have demons in your penis.

- Yeah.

Ectoplasm.

- Mmm.

- It serves as, so...

In order for you to...

Wrestle your way

through this issue

you're gonna have

to face the demons,

but not the demons

in your penis.

The demons in your mind.

Well, if I wrestle, I'll just get

more excited, that's the problem.

Well, it's gonna be a big price

you're gonna have to pay.

It's a whole different

way of living.

The question is, are you

willing to pay that price?

What do I have to give up?

Well, you may not want to.

Why give it up?

If you're happy doing it,

keep doing it.

I'm happy, but I also

acknowledge the fact

that is ruining

my relationships,

- my productivity at work.

- Yeah, uh-huh.

- My career...

- Yeah.

Um, the desensitizations.

Rex, you have a decision

to make.

There is no path that

you can take in life

that doesn't have loss.

You can have all the sex you

want, and no relationships,

no relationship

with your family,

no constructive

long-term relationship

and a deteriorating work life.

Or, you can have all

those other things

but you're gonna have to give up

compulsive masturbation

compulsive promiscuity

and salivating sex.

I don't know if I can

do that, doctor.

You are at a choice point.

So I'd like to make

a recommendation,

I think that with a case

of this extremity

that you're probably gonna wanna

go into a program,

something like sex and love

addicts anonymous or, uh...

You can help me, right?

- You know, this is...

- You can't help me?

Nah, this is a particular

specialization

and I really think you need

to be with somebody

who is really well trained

in this area.

Wanna talk about it?

No, there's nothing

to talk about.

There's a lot to talk about. I

mean, that was intense for you.

- You haven't said anything since we got back.

- There's nothing to talk about.

Why do you wanna always talk

about everything?

Because, Rex, that's how

people get through things.

That's how you get

through things.

- That's not how I get through things.

- Can we talk, please?

- There's nothing to talk about.

- Yes, there is.

There's plenty to talk about.

Put your phone away.

- No, that will not happen.

- Rex, give me your damn phone.

- Give me your phone.

- You need to back off of me.

You need to talk to me

and be an adult.

I have to go

get some relief now.

You're not going anywhere, Rex.

Rex, do not leave

this apartment.

You cannot make me.

I'm an adult,

and I will go do what I need to

do, which is get me some relief.

You think I'm just gonna stand

here and let you leave?

I have someone

to meet on tinder.

I don't care who you're meeting.

Come on, we're following him.

Well, don't you think...

No, we're not gonna

give him a minute.

You can hear him?

Yes, I can hear

everything he's saying.

Oh, god, he's so vile.

He's back here.

I... well, because...

His lav's still connected.

Rex left his apartment

in a huff a few hours ago

and we've been tracking him

because he left

his microphone on.

- Oh, no.

- Where is he?

Please tell me he's not

falling into his old habits.

Yo, come in.

Hey. Um, is Ashley here?

- I'm Ashley, what's up?

- Ash is a woman.

- That's all my photographs.

- You're not Ashley.

- Is that a dude?

- I had a different wig on.

Okay, on the tinder profile,

dude, it was a woman, okay?

A sexy light-skinned

black woman.

- Yeah, I'm light.

- But she was a woman.

It appears as though Rex

has found himself

- that's not you... -In a

room with a transvestite.

You said, "people say

I look similar to Beyonc."

Yeah, in the shoulders.

You don't look anything like...

You don't look like...

You don't even look like

a sh*t that Beyonc took.

You're not as cute as you said

you were in your picture.

Yeah, but it's fine

but I have my genitals

that I claimed that I do

and you clearly do not.

Did you get surgery,

do you have your vagina?

Do you have a penis,

what do you have?

I just have a penis. I am... I

did put a p*ssy on layaway.

I didn't come down here

intending to be with a man.

You're a man, dude.

First time for everything, man.

Oh god. I keep getting

crotch shots.

- You know...

- -All right, just give me a f***ing moment.

Hey, I got some ecstasy

in there. It's in the cabinet.

Close your mouth.

Shut your mouth.

Oh, my god.

Oh, my god.

He's f***ing...

Oh no, he's going

through his list.

F***.

F***.

Sandrine, pick up the phone.

I need to see you right now.

I don't care

if you're seeing him.

No, you know, I can't pay

as much as him.

F***, f***!

It's f***ing over.

Oh, man.

Oh, god, I don't wanna have

sex with a tranny.

No way he's gonna do it.

It's...

Unfortunately

it's like any addiction.

When you hit bottom,

you hit bottom.

Wassup?

Mr. Rex, welcome back.

- Get your mind right?

- Um... I'm... I'm trying.

Let's just get this over with.

- Just hurry the f*** up.

- Come relax here, man.

To be fair, he shaved his legs.

They've got a nice shape.

- Give me, like, six or seven drinks.

- I got you.

Don't... it's okay.

I'm gonna have to touch you.

Take the shirt off.

Okay, we're gonna have to...

Just don't touch me,

please, right now.

Yeah, whatever.

Put some pills in there too.

I wanna go out

like Heath ledger.

Get in here.

Turn that light off.

Yeah, throw it in there.

Oh, sh*t.

My f***ing mic is on.

What do you think

a documentary is?

We have to get everything.

I got some codeine.

Throw that in. That's fine.

I called my boy,

I can get some Zoloft.

Yeah, just...
