So we're gonna do it

on a Tuesday or Thursday

those days,

and three out of four will be
plenty enough to cover errands.

- It should be a motel.

- Yes, somewhere close
to your office.

I'll bring lunch so we can have
your entire break.

I will handle check in,
clean up, same reason.

- Always pay cash.
- Of course.

But I do think it's important

that we split costs
afterwards--

right down the middle so
there's no sense of--you know.

most important rule.

If either of us start
to develop feelings

for the other, it's over,

Congratulations.

Is this hormones already?

Maybe.

Pregnancy is magical

It's very common,

ELAINE:
It is a rather high number.

The parsonage is in bad shape.

The toilet needs replacing,

We all work on our own homes.

SANDRA: As far as
we're concerned, his proposal

is dead on arrival.

with Reverend Ron--

- Marriage Encounter
has taught us

We gave it a shot,

and we're more connected now
than we've ever been.

- Well, um,
Allan and I are fine.

isn't for problem marriages.

No, it's just a community

- Oh, no.
ELAINE: Blessings.

- Hey.
- Goodbye, Elaine.

SANDRA:
[laughs] No, it's a phone.

See, one couple will call
another couple any ole time.

They'll let it ring once
and they hang up.

Just a little something
to let 'em know

they're thinking about 'em.

JEFFREY:
They're very smart.

It's beyond psychology.

It's about emotions.

So it's for good marriages,

aren't very relaxed right now.

You worked hard all week.

You earned your time on

question with another question.

How many of you go on,
you know, business trips,

weekend work seminars,
corporate retreats,

that type of thing?

occurrence in the Gore home,

but tell me this.

What happens next?

- Yes. Turn to him.

Speak directly to him.

What are you doing
for yourself sexually?

Well...

Because I understand
your appetite going down

while I'm pregnant, it's--

what it was you were doing.

Is this what we're supposed

Betty's question

in graphic detail, okay?

And anything else that comes up

'cause here's the secret,
all right?

Before we get started,

you're gonna make a commitment
to each other.

You're gonna commit right now
to stay in this marriage

no matter what is said
in this room.

- That's how this works.
JACK: Hmm?

Very smart people who came up
with Marriage Encounter studied

a lot of couples,
hundreds of them.

And they found
that the number one impediment

to honest communication
is fear.

Fear of it disrupting
the marriage.

- So, um, we kind of make
a promise to each other

that we're not gonna
hold anything

against each other
no matter what it is?

- Without that, how could
we be really honest?
