"All right, a couple of beers" "And a white wine with half an ice cube for princess." "Jules, I am liking the new boyfriend." "You ever notice how you can tell how a guy is in bed" "Just by looking at him?" "Oh, for sure." "That guy screams out his own name." "That guy doesn't make love." "He makes love." "Ooh." "Hey, dude." "Slow down." "We actually like it longer than five seconds." "this is a stupid game." "That guy over there is clumsy in bed," "But he tries really hard, and he's very well-endowed." "Whoa." "Who's that?" "Hey, gang." "Hey." "Congratulations." "Thank you." "For what?" "See, that's why dating is easier for women." "You guys know what you're getting." "It is hard to be a single man out there." "No, it is so much harder to be a single woman." "So much harder." "You guys read "cathy"?" "Look, when it comes to sex, women are the gatekeepers." "That's why it's easier for you." "You get to decide when and if it's happening." "And in fact, if you were to call a total stranger," "Ask him to have sex, he will say yes." "Please." "No, he wouldn't." "I would." "I'm gonna do it." "Okay, here we go." "And speakerphone." "Loser picks up the tab." "I-I like that." "hello?" "Oh!" "Oh, god." "Um, hi." "Hi." "Um, will you have sex with me?" "no." "Uh, sure." "Ohh!" "Whoo!" "Yes." "Okay, what is your deal, man?" "No, I think you need to look deeper." "Honey, you deserve more than that." "Oh." "Shorts and a-a little blue button-down." "Why?" "Okay." "It's really strange that you're still talking to that guy." "Tom, I gotta call you back." "Okay." "Hey, good luck on your interview." "Bye." "So look, there's nothing good on tv tonight." "I thought it'd be fun to play a little scrabble." "Oh, scrabble." "Mm-hmm." "Okay." "Um, or we could..." "Spell this." "You sexed up jeff because you didn't want to play scrabble?" "You love scrabble." "Yeah, but jeff--he's, like, "good will hunting" smart." "If matt damon weren't married and if he weren't a movie star" "And if he lived in this town, I really think we would date." "That's a lot of "ifs." yet not enough." "I'm just not ready for jeff to know how dumb I am." "I me, not yet." "Oh, yeah, no." "You know why I dig my girlfriend?" "It's because from day one," "She's been completely honest with me about who she is." "travis, let me teach you" "A little something about women." "When a girl starts to date a guy, I mean," "At first, she likes to let him think that she's a certain way" "Or that she likes certain things, like superhero movies" "Or, uh, morning sex." "Ew." "bleh." "but then you get married and the mask comes off" "And you find out what your wife is really like." "Ta-da!" "There's something veryweet and soft about you, mrs." "Torres." "Thank you." "Ellie and I have to go to the dermatologist." "Laurie, you have to meet withur banker." "no." "Yes, and I want you to wear that suit that I picked out." "But this time, please put a shirt under it." "Sha!" "All right." "We're off to the meanest doctor in the world." "Ugh." "She is the worst." "If she's the worst, why go to her?" "Because she's the best." "Der." "Do you think every single person is here for botox?" "Welcome to the time machine, ladies." "Which of the many fine doctors here are you seeing?" "Uh, dr." "Evans." "You?" "The other 12." "See you in two days, when I emerge from my chrysalis." "ugh." "Dr. Evans is so scary." "What is your strategy to deal with her?" "Oh, I'm totally submissive." "I avoid eye contact," "I keep my head down and mumble softly at any direct questions." "I'm gonna go with straight-up nice." "First I'm gonna hit her with a "great hair,"" "Then I'll knock her back with a "you smell nice"" "And finally, "you got a sexy, smoky voice."" "Ka-bam!" "I've killed her with kindness." "Oh, you got your guns with ya." "Oh, yeah, I brought 'em." "Mm." "You know why I love your way?" "Why?" "It's so who you are." "Hell, I'm a strong person." "I'm gonna be strong, too." ""ellie torres." where is ellie torres?" "um, I'm right here, dr." "Evans." "Did you just say something?" "No, I didn't say anything." "Sorry." "All right, go to my office." "You've got a smoky, sexy voice!" "Okay, you need to take your perky dial" "And turn it down a few thousand notches." "Okay, normally I would kick you out of my office," "But you've got a lot of things going on here," "Which is good, 'cause mama needs a new steam shower." "Any questions?" "I'm just gonna wait right here." "You smell nice." "That's the smell of confidence." "Wow." "I've never seen you wear so few colors at once" "I feel like that lady that comes to your house" "Every six months when you're a kid" "And decides whether or not you get to keep living there." "Ugh." "Can I get a beer?" "Ooh." "Get me one, too." "Whoa!" "And you in a suit." "What is going on?" "Black is white." "Yin is yang." "Hot is cold." "Devito's tall." "Jon is kate." "Seriously, if you pay for this, I think my heart will stop." "You're safe." "My new girlfriend bought this for me." "Sweedeal--she buys me things, and in return," "When we're in the sack, I try to hang in there" "For longer than five minutes." "Mm." "I have to go." "I ha a stupid meeting at the bank." "Well, aren't, uh, all meetings at banks a little stupid?" "Why is that funny?" "You okay?" "It's been a while since I wore I tie." "I keep thinking someone's trying to strangle me." "So I was thinking about getting some botox," "But, uh, I want to keep a natural look." "What--what would you do?" "Oh, I wouldn't do anything." "But obviously, I don't get work done on my face." "I'm not judging." "It's just--I guess" "I just feel secure enough as a woman that I don't need" "To inject poison into my head." "But that's just me." "Well, it's nice not to judge." "Okay." "I'll look over here." "You have a lot of degrees." "I'm a doctor." "That's how it works." "Where'd you go to school?" "Well, I started at u.F.," "And then I took a little break to have a baby." "When did you get your degree?" "I'm currently still on break." "But I started my own business." "I'm in real estate." "Oh, I got my real estate license online one morning" "When I was trying to avoid fees for my second home." "Yeah." "But I get it." "I get it." "Real estate's what you do" "When you have no other options,?" "I guess it's like being a stripper," "Except you get to see your face on a bus bench." "Well, not this face, of course, but the airbrushed version." "When you string that many mean thoughts together," "I lose my breath just a little bit." "Well, this is going to burn like a mother." "It was, uh, it was nice meeting you." "My name's smith." "Laurie." "Laurie." "I mean, I thought he was cute," "But what kind of a tool goes by his last name?" "Right?" "Smith is his first name." "That's a first name-last name situation." "I love those." "Smith's family owns that giant house over on rose street," "You know, the one that looks like a hotel?" "Wait." "That hotel?" "It's actually a house." "The one that's next to the hotel?" "We are not getting anywhere here." "Look, dude is loaded." "Message received, my friend." "Smith!" "Ha." "Hey, little man." "I heard ellie and the gang dropped some knowledge on ya." "Apparently all women are liars." "Does this mean my girlfriend" "Doesn't really love my short stories?" "Of course not, trav." "Nobody does." "Do you really wanna understand women?" "I feel like this is heading to a bad place." "I'm gonna teach you about women." "there it is." "Look at me." "I'm a schlubby guy yet I got a hot wife." "I made that happen." "See the guy over there?" "He's better-looking than me," "But his wife is not as hot as mine." "If we were to make eye contact, he'd know who won." "Hey, guys." "Hey, babe." "Ah, that's right, bitch." "This is the last time I bring your mail over." "bill, bill." "Hey, you look a little, uh..." "Younger?" "Prettier?" "All right." "Well, I better." "I had the worst morning with this evil doctor." "She was, like, queen bitch of the universe." "Oh, come on!" "I like "queen bitch." makes me sound like leader of the gays." "Well, this is a surprise, of some sort." "Oh, I met robert at the golf course." "I Lost me-- -she got pissed off" "And threw it in that nasty pond on the third hole." "I dove in and got it." "In return, amy treated my bite from an angry goose." "You see, um, goose saliva is full of bacteria." "Yes, I know that, dr." "Evans." "I may not have your fancy degrees," "But I know about a lot of things." "I didn't realize that goose spit was such a touchy area." "Now you know." "Calm down, j-bird." "After all, you're the one that busted in on us." "You know, if the boat's a-rockin'-- please don't finish." "But it's fun to finish." "You'll live." "You know, you certainly have a lot to say." "What is your relationship?" "I'm his ex-wife." "I'm sorry." "I wasn't listening." "I-I think I missed a few deep frown lines." "Well, I'll come by on Monday." "I'm closed Monday." "Don't come a-knockin'." "Sorry." "So you up for going out tonight?" "Sure, smith." "Ooh." "I swear, if I ever have a white baby," "I am totally naming him smith." "Thanks..." "I guess." "So I was thinking we could go to this political fund-raiser" "That my family's throwing." "Yay!" "I love those." "I can't go to some political thing at a country club." "I don't know how to act." "Aw, it's just like "pretty woman."" "Actually, it's more like "mystic pizza,"" "But either way, I get to be julia roberts, so bite me." "Well, then let's see that little julia toothy smile." "I'm gonna teach you about womanhood," "But I want you to think from here," "Not here and never ever..." "Here." "Please stop doing that." "Now, ellie's skin doctor made her feel old," "And when a woman's in a vulnerable place," "They're like a..." "A cornered badger ready to lash out." "Observe." "Andy, this is where we eat." "You may be the dumbest person I've ever met up close." "Sorry, babe." "She just crushed you." "Yeah." "But she overreacted." "Later she'll feel guilty, and that's gonna work for me." "Oh, and what is this?" "Her favorite necklace." "Now what do you think I should do with this?" "Give it back to her?" "No, we're gonna put that in this pencil box." "That's gonna come back later." "All right, come on." "We got a big day." "Big, big, big day." "She thinks she is so much better than me," "So you know she's giving bobby the same superior attitude." "Why do you even care?" "I feel bad." "Bobby is just such a kind, beautiful man." "If you want to have sex with him, I can drive you over there." "No, I'm good for now." "Nice edge, jeffie." "You like that?" "Oh, I do." "I bet you do." "You know I do." "All right, your banter's starting to sound" "A little sexual." "You're the one who keeps fantasizing" "About your ex-husband." "Ooh." "He's the jealous type." "How fun is that?" "So fun." "Here's a crazy notion" "Why not just let the guy live his own life?" "Maybe." "We need to talk." "Oh, happy day." "So those are the main differences" "Between democrats and republicans." "I just wish you could make it simpler." "Uh, donkey likes hybrids, health care and homosexuals" "And elephant likes god." "I saw an elephant pray at a circus once." "Wow." "That's..." "Relevant." "So both of our votes count the same, right?" "Yeah." "It's a, uh, it's a great system." "I think it works." "You want to know why I'm with bobby?" "Yes." "He makes me feel like a kid again." "I've never been with a man who could do that." "Really?" "No." "He has nice hair and he's good in the sack." "He is great in the sack." "He's not." "But he tries really hard." "He doesn't." "I know." "What is the deal with that?" "Seriously, dude, stop watching the game and get in the game." "but what do you want?" "This is not a serious relationship for you." "You need to move on." "Are you threatening me?" "I said-- I heard you." "I just haven't decided yet." "Well, you have my number, so why don't you call me when you know?" "Okay." "I decided." "Back off." "Well done." "Thank you." "Hey, mom." "What's up?" "I just got done kicking some skin doctor ass." "That's what's up." "Hold on." "This is good for you to see." "Can you forget that was your mom?" "No problem." "When a woman has just dominated another woman," "She feels ferocious." "This is a great time to ask for sex." "Mom's sort of creeping back into my head." "I never said this was gonna be easy." "Come on." "Why am I still following?" "I thought you two were friends." "That's crazy talk." "We only interact when jules is around." "Otherwise we've agreed to keep a 6-foot buffer between us." "Watch." "That's a neat trick." "So where's jules?" "Well, she's off convincing dr." "Evans to stop using bobby." "Bobby doesn't mind being used." "He calls it "getting sponsored."" "Sesly, you can't embarrass the guy." "He borrowed an old aquarium from me to use as a boat toilet." "You might want to let himeep that." "Regardless, even bobby can end up looking like a fool" "If he dates too far out of his league." "Hey, shouldn't you get going to your date?" "Oh, screw it." "I'm not going." "I gave her the what for." "What does that even mean?" "I don't know, but I did it." "This woman is running scared." "Hey, j-bird." " We just came by to pick up trav, but he's not here." "Hi, jules." "Oh, you need more chardonnay." "And better chardonnay." "running scared." "You better run scared." "That woman thinks she can come into my house" "And drink my cheap wine." "Well, why doesn't she just drop bobby?" "Does he have an awesome peep or something?" "Ellie, I've told you this a thousand times" "No man has a truly awesome peep." "They're like unicorns." "I just want to believe one exists." "Hey, jules?" "Unicorn." "Nope." "I feel like something bad just happened." "Ready to go to the movies?" "Change of plans." "Come with me." "So why'd you bail on richie rich?" "Please." "He only asked me out because he thought" "I was some upper-crust, suit-wearing business gal." "Smith wasn't attracted to you" "Because he thought you were couth." "Grayson, that is a word that only women are allowed to use" "When they're really angry with another woman." ""couth," you know, like the opposite of "uncouth."" "Right." "Because if I didn't know what "couth" meant," "Putting an "un" in front of it makes it perfectly clear." "Who's dumb now?" "Obviously, I am." "Hey, laurie." "Not now, travis." "What the hell did I do?" "It's a classic case of misplaced lady rage." "We've been over this." "What do you do?" "Figure out what she's mad at and then blindly agree with her." "Good." "Now use your senses." "Where's her anger stemming from?" "Hey, laurie." "grayson is such a jerk." "Right?" "Trav, you're the best." "I am so proud right now." "Well, this is nice, right?" "It's heartwarming to see divorc?" "es without boundaries." "Well, you dropped by my place," "So we just thought we'd drop by here." "Can I get another vase of wine?" "Coming up." "Thanks." "Jules?" "I'm good for a few minutes." "I see what's happening." "I bring out your insecurities in a way that exacerbates" "An already borderline codependent relationship" "With your ex-husband." "Oh, it exacerbates it." "stay calm." "Pipe down, jeff." "Just be happy that you're here." "That's gonna be easy." "I'm thrilled I'm here." "Look, I know you're super book smart," "But I happen to be something called "street smart." yeah, that's what people who didn't go to college" "Always say they have." "I got a crap ton of street smarts." "You know what else I have, amy?" "Common sense." "That's the little voice that should tell you not to be an ass" "When you're sitting on the edge of a land boat." "Okay, why don't you show me where the bathroom is, huh?" "It's right there." "Come on." "Just look r the aquarium." "Oh, look." "It's professor vocabulary." "Let me explain something to you, tough girl." "Smith didn't walk over to you" "Because he thought you looked classy." "He walked over because he saw your butt, boobs and face..." "In that order." "And no man in the history of the universe has ever said," ""you know, I met this really cool, stone-cold hottie," ""but I don't want to get naked and do awful things to her" "Because she doesn't know about politics."" "Do you really think he wants to do awful things to me?" "Well, who wouldn't?" "Thanks, grayson." "That is super couth of you." "Did I use it right?" "Close enough." "I'm angry and I just peed in a fish tank." "I'm--I'm really sorry I brought you here." "No, I love that your ex-husband lives on a boat." "there is no possible way can let you down." "I like this guy." "He's funny." "How can this woman not be driving you crazy?" "I mean, she thinks she's so much better than you." "If I got mad at everyone who thought they were" "Better than me, I wouldn't have any time to do stuff." "Well, she talks down to everyone." "I mean, she thinks she's smarter than me." "Smarter than I." "Which one is it?" "Uh, it's smart" "No, no, no." "Don't you dare answer." "I-I know that you think you're super important" "Because you went to harvard, but no one really cares." "I didn't go to harvard." "Well, in my head you did," "And you're also the captain of the crew team." "This is a weird day." "Get used to it, jeffrey." "You have a little chip on your shoulder" "For people act like they're super smart, don't you?" " That is ridiculous." " Fine." " I could have finished college." " Oh, I know." "I know." "I mean, I only had, like, three and three-quarter years left." "Ugh." "Why am I so insecure about this?" "It's just so stupid." "It's okay." "Hey, this is good stu for me to know." "All right, are there any other quirks that I might run into?" "Take her to an italian restaurant." "She'll slide right into their accident." "your daughter has a mustache." "what?" "They like it when you do that." "Well, it's incredibly rude, even for hillbillies," "To leave me up there alone." "Oh, she is horrible." "Right?" "Are you going to defend me?" "Do I have to?" "Just bring up more wine." "My mustard jar's empty." "I am tired from sharing my gift." "are you a genius?" "Baby, are you looking for your necklace?" "I found it in the shower." "A big glob of conditioner was about to suck it down the drain." "Thank you." "I'm so sorry I barked at you this morning." "I've been feeling so bad about it." "But, babe, I promise to make it up to you tonight." "Travis, women will always drive us nuts," "But have compassion," "For they only behave that way to protect themselves." "They date men they feel superior to so they can't get hurt..." "Bobby, how am I supposed to give you a proper exam" "When you have your gown on backwards?" "Do I?" "For some reason, I'm craving right now." "they almost miss out on stuff" "They feel they aren't good enough for." "That is impressive." "I know." " Hey, what is your last name?" " Frank." "What?" "You have a last name first name" "And a first name last name?" "Take me home right now." "Okay." "Go." "Here we go. "utopian"-- that's seven letters." "Your turn." "But once in a while," "They find the courage to just be themselves," "And it's worth the wait." "Okay, here's the deal." "I'm gonna use a lot of 3-letter words." "Some you'll recognize, some you won't," "Because they may or may not be real." "I'm okay with that." "Okay." ""Z-I-T."" "Zit." " Nice." "And you used a "z" on a triple letter score." "Yes, I did, jeff." "Which takes you into the lead." "Uh-oh, there is an earthquake here on bed island." " My goodness, Do you feel it?" " Why did you do that?" "Oh, I thought I'd quit while I was ahead." "Come here."
