Morning, Miss Jacob.

Good morning, Thomas.

I hear we got that sex therapist coming back on the show today.

She sure is a hit with your audience.

Well, I hope you're ready.

Oh, no.

What's wrong? Thomas, I need you to do me a big favor.

I left all of my notes at home.

Anybody ask for me, just don't. I'll be back in like 20 minutes. All right.

I'll tell them you called in with some car trouble.

Perfect. Tell them Kate's helping me fix the problem.

And everything.

Thanks, Thomas. You're a saint.

Ah.

Thank you.

Mia. T, you asshole.

Wait.

I think they bought the car trouble story, Ms. Jacobs, but Mr. Foreman said

get you your makeup straight away.

Mia.

Mia, the makeup artist told me that you almost bit her head off this morning.

Relax, just a car problem.

It's never just a problem.

Well, you know, Shannon doesn't put up with any BS.

I made you sharp and focused in there.

I'll be fine, thanks.

Oh, careful. Mia's in a mood.

Don't worry. Mia's in a mood.

Spice up the show, she'll be fine.

I could use your help on this, Shannon.

What's going on?

I walked in on teats growing another woman.

Oh, I'm so sorry, Mia.

And we're counting down in five, four, three...

Hi, welcome to Top Sex.

I'm Mia Jacobs, and today we have a very special return guest. Our favorite

sexual therapist and relationship counselor, Dr.

Shannon Jones.

Welcome back, Shannon.

Always a pleasure, Mia.

Well, then today you're going to love what I have in store.

I'm going to do something that I've never done on this show before.

I'm going to bring my personal life to the camera.

I walked in.

On my boyfriend.

Screwing another woman.

This morning.

My first thought was revenge.

I just wanted to go jump the first hot guy I saw.

Come on, Mia.

I know.

I can't even imagine myself with anyone else but Tate.

But is it wrong to make him want to suffer?

Well, I'm not going to advise you to have an affair, nor am I going to advise

you to stay faithful. It's up to you, Mia.

I just don't know what to do.

Well, since it's obvious that fidelity is the topic of today's show, I'm going

to try and show you and our audience both sides of the issue.

So just listen with your heart, Mia, and hopefully it will guide you in which

action to take.

I once had a client who was an airline pilot.

Let's call him Harry.

Harry was married to a very lovely woman, and they seemed to have a very

satisfying sex life.

Harry came to me because he had control issues. I thought I could help him learn

to be more submissive with his wife.

He let me know that his wife wasn't the problem.

You see, our airline pilot had the unfortunate habit of sleeping with

attendants on his layovers.

And he was consumed with this intense game of domination.

Wearing any panties?

No. Good.

Lift your skirt.

Slowly.

Touch her.

What's your name?

Nelson. Don't stop.

I'm Harry.

Nice to meet you, Nelson.

It's nice to meet you.

Open your eyes.

Wow. Now there's a lot more going on with this guy than just a simple affair.

True. Harry was consumed with looking for the perfect submissive partner.

He didn't even care whether he knew her or not, as long as she did everything he

asked. He even went so far as to watch Two Women Making Love to figure out

one was submissive enough to satisfy him.

Oh, my God. This guy's, like, totally out of control.

Harry was obsessed.

Each session, I could see that his quest for the perfect submissive partner was

becoming a bigger and bigger part of his life.

What about Harry's wife? Didn't she have a clue?

She definitely knew, most women do.

I tried to tell him to tell her everything or leave her so he could

his search with some integrity, but he was unstoppable.

Finally... He turned to a prostitute to see if that's what he needed.

Why don't you slip out of those things?

Take your time.

No. Keep the shoes on.

You're going to love it.

So it sounds like the pro finally taught this guy a lesson.

As a matter of fact, Veronica did.

Oh, so you set him up.

Come on, Doc.

Tell us what happened.

Well, I don't usually endorse prostitution as a form of treatment, but

Harry's case it worked like a charm. He finally found what he was looking for.

Hold on.

This prostitute...

She sounds like the exact opposite of a submissive partner.

She practically kicked his ass.

True. I did tell her to turn the tables on him, but I never really believed he

wanted a submissive partner.

Harry wanted someone exactly like himself, willing to try anything.

So you tricked him.

Did it work?

Better than I'd ever imagined.

This was the exact opening I needed.

So I told Harry I was...

proud of him for meeting a sexual match, but that he'd have to come clean with

his wife or I wouldn't see him again.

What did she say? She must have been devastated.

Actually, she was relieved.

She didn't have to pretend she didn't notice anymore.

And Harry, the next time I saw him, he was so happy he was practically

She had to have kicked him out, right?

No, actually, she stayed with him, despite the affairs.

See, she realized that she had been holding herself back sexually.

And... With Harry going on this sexual adventure, it gave her the freedom to

explore more. And, you know, they found out she was the perfect sexual match for

him.

And as far as I know, he's never cheated on her again.

Hold that thought.

We're going to go to a commercial break.

And we'll be right back with Dr. Shannon Jones.

Seriously. The wife didn't punish him.

Harry stopped cheating.

And... He found the lover of his dreams in her.

Seriously?

I can't do nothing.

My insides will explode if I do nothing.

Well, then look at your options, Mia. I mean, really look at them.

You could have a revenge affair right here, right now.

With who?

Your producer.

Colin?

Mia?

I'm sorry about your boyfriend, but it's official.

What is?

Are you crazy opening up your personal life on air like this?

Do you realize you can have every crackpot in the country calling in

talk about Mia's love life on the air?

Hey, that's not a bad idea.

We should open up the show to some callers, some viewers.

I could really spark my imagination like that.

No. No way are you opening this up to the audience.

No. Who's screening calls?

I want to hear from some cheaters and some cheaties.

And you're not helping this situation.

You realize you could offer yourself as her revenge affair.

Get out of her system once and for all.

Okay. First, you're crazy. There's no way I'm getting in the middle of this.

secondly, she's a pretty girl and all, but she's not my type.

Who is your type, Colin?

Okay, people, we're back on the bell.

Colin's not my type anyways.

Counting down in five, four, three.

Hi, and welcome back to Top Sex.

I'm Mia Jacobs, and today we're talking with Dr.

Shannon Jones about affairs.

Specifically, the one my boyfriend had with another woman.

Should I seek revenge sex, or just let it go?

I don't know.

I think we should open up the lines, hear from some of the viewers.

Please give me some advice.

Talk sex, you're on the air.

Hi, Mia, I'm Henry.

Hi, Henry.

Do you have some advice for me?

I convinced myself that Helen and I were just going to get a cup of coffee or

something.

You must be Henry.

That's right.

And you must be Helen.

No time for words right now.

No.

So obviously you have no willpower, huh, Henry?

Not only that, but I'm not very smart about erasing my emails either.

My wife found them, and boy, was she pissed.

If she felt anything like I did this morning, I'd say pissed is an

understatement.

Yeah, we got into a terrible fight, but she agreed to stay with me if we fixed

our sex life.

Fixed? Was it broken?

Obviously something wasn't right if I was willing to trash my marriage over a

one -night stand.

I told my wife I'd do anything she wanted, and she said she'd always had

fantasy about me picking her up on the street as if she was a stranger and

her right there on our truck.

I knew I had to go along with whatever she wanted, so we set up a little role

-playing hit.

Ah, that's dead.

She left me there, with my pants down around my ankles, tied to a chain -link

fence out in the middle of nowhere.

Some nice old couple drove by a couple hours later and rescued me, but by the

time I got home, she'd cleaned out all her stuff and was gone.

I'm sorry, Henry.

Oh, hell, I probably deserved it.

But I just wish my wife had stuck around so I could make it all up to her. I

really miss her.

Thanks for calling in, Henry.

I'll certainly take your advice to heart.

Well, that really didn't help me out, but it certainly does say something

cheating in the first place.

We're going to take a short break, and we'll be right back with more Talk Sex.

And we're out.

That's lunch, everybody. We'll be back in an hour.

I'll see you in the lunch line. There's something I've got to do.

All right.

Mia, wait.

We have to talk.

What was that for?

That was for not being interested in Mia Jacobs.

I always thought you were attracted to her.

And she said you wasn't her type.

Ugh.

I'm so sorry about what happened, Mia.

I totally screwed up.

There's no excuse for what I did.

All I can say is I don't want to lose you.

What do you mean, Tate?

How can you say that?

Who is she? Why were you fucking her?

She's someone I met at the gym.

We were supposed to go running before our workout.

So you decided to get a little workout before your workout?

I totally screwed up. She came on to me, and I didn't stop her.

But I love you, Mia, and I don't want to lose you.

Can you please forgive me?

I don't know, Tate.

I just can't get that picture out of my head.

Maybe when I can, then we can talk. But right now, you gotta go.

Sorry.

Hey. Everything okay?

Oh, I'm great. Thanks.

Did you see Tate?

No. Was he here?

Yeah, he came with a rose, an apology, and a lunch.

I don't know what to do.

Do you still love him?

I just can't even think about him without feeling sick.

Okay, people, we're back. Give me a bell.

And we're counting down in five, four, three... Consider how you'd feel if you

had a secret affair and never told him about it.

Hello, everyone, and welcome back to Talk Sex.

I'm Mia Jacobs, and today we're talking about me with Dr. Shannon Jones.

Do I have revenge sex and pay my boyfriend back for his cheating habits,

just let it go?

We've heard stories from both camps.

How are you feeling right now, Mia?

Hurt, angry, confused.

I don't know what to do.

I think we should go to another caller.

See what the viewers have to say.

Hi, talk sex. You're on the air with Mia Jacob.

Hi, Mia.

I'm so sorry you have to go through this, but unfortunately too many of us

My name is Linda.

What happened to you, Linda?

My husband, Frank, and I have been together a long time, and sex was always

wonderful between us.

It sounds like you guys have great sex.

Bye.

How did you find out about the affair?

The usual way. Credit card receipts.

You'd think guys would remember who pays the bills in most homes.

I'm sorry, Linda.

What did you do?

Well, I did just what you're wondering about.

just about every fantasy I've ever had.

Did Frank ever find out?

I never told him, but I did leave a copy of his credit card bill with a big red

circle around the hotel room charge where he could see it.

All of a sudden, Frank got very romantic and attentive, and I realized I was

much more tolerant because I had my own secret affair to keep me warm at night.

How are things between you and Frank now, Linda?

Actually, we just came back from the most wonderful vacation.

He surprised me with a romantic weekend away. And I have to say, sex with Frank

now is better than it's ever been.

I'm very happy for you, Linda. That's the way vacations should be. It was four

poster beds and tons of room service.

Thank you so much for calling.

When was the last time your boyfriend did something romantic like that for

Well, the fact that I have to think about it means it was probably too long

Okay, I'm starting to make up my mind, but I'm still unsure.

I think I need to hear from another caller.

Or hear another story?

Well, I can tell you about a couple I counseled a few months ago, Jack and

Missy. Jack traveled a lot, so Missy always tried to make his homecoming

something, you know, extra special.

I will always have you close to me.

Did I tell you what you mean to me?

You're in my heart forever.

my eyes

I like this woman's style.

Missy's efforts seemed to be working.

But as time wore on, Jack was traveling more and more.

Things started unraveling. But still, she did her best.

Tracy started to pay more attention when Jack was away on business trips.

Don't tell me she found another credit card receipt.

No, Jack was more clever than that. But she did figure out the code to Jack's

cell phone voicemail. And when he was away, she used it, and she found out he

was planning a romantic rendezvous with another woman.

Now, conventional wisdom says there are only a few,

quote, erogenous zones on a woman's body.

That's what I've heard.

You know what I say to that?

No. What?

Pure hogwash.

When I'm being touched by a man who loves me, it doesn't matter if he's

caressing my arm, scratching my neck,

tickling my tummy, or cupping my breath.

Okay. Let's give you a shot.

I'm a little closer.

Hey, cowboy.

This isn't supermarket sweet.

Take your time.

Enjoy yourself.

Let me enjoy myself.

We have all the time in the world.

Damn, woman. You really know how to tell a good story.

Now, obviously, cheating is not what Missy has signed up for in the

relationship.

So that's how she and Jack came to me for counseling.

Well, that says something about him right there. I don't think I could ever

my boyfriend anywhere near a counselor.

Might be different now, now that he knows his relationship is on the line.

As it turns out, Jack was just acting out in his loneliness.

He was frustrated being felt missy, and he was acting out, and he realized

that what he was doing was damaging the relationship, and she realized she would

do anything to save it.

So what did they do?

Well... Instead of saving for vacations, they spent the money on airline tickets

for Missy and she joined him on his business trips. They had their little

romantic getaways.

Hey.

Hey.

How about some homework?

Absolutely.

You should have been there.

I had to go out for a breath of fresh air and my office got so steamy.

So, I guess the moral of the story is, don't get even.

Just get sexy.

Something like that.

Okay. Now I think I have enough information to make a good decision.

Thanks to all those sexy stories out there, the viewers, the callers, and

especially thanks to Dr. Shannon Jones.

You've been watching Toxic.

Have a great night.

Cut the rap, people.

Thank you.

Thanks for a great day, Mia.

No, thank you.

Hey, do you have a minute?

Could you come back to my dressing room?

Sure, for a second. Sure, just give me a minute and I'll be right there. Okay.

I don't know what to say, Miss Jones.

Miss Jones, is it now?

Okay, I get it.

Nice working with you, Mr. Foreman.

Oh, come on, Shannon, don't be that way.

What?

I know this is your job, and it's sometimes considered a tad

sleep with the talent.

A tad?

Come on, Colin, it was fun.

Don't take that away from it. Shannon, it was more than fun.

Thank you.

I'll see you soon.

You know,

I think I finally decided what to do about Tate. What's that?

Well, I'm angry, if that much is obvious, but I still really love him.

I told you already that I couldn't even imagine myself having sex with another

man, but I still want to get back what he took from me by cheating.

You know, your stories were intoxicating.

I was inspired.

By what?

You said you couldn't get the picture of Tate with another woman out of your

head. Well, I wanted to replace it with something else.

How'd I do?

Well, I guess sex with a woman wouldn't really be cheating.

Because it'd be kind of just for me.

And me.

Um, yeah.

Yeah.
