I'm sorry, I can't.

19
00:00:57,144 --> 00:00:58,497
Is that because
it's Christmas Eve,

20
00:00:58,580 --> 00:01:02,323
or because you have
another patient?

166
00:08:30,205 --> 00:08:32,207
Okay.

167
00:08:32,294 --> 00:08:34,905
I know. Okay.

168
00:08:34,992 --> 00:08:38,130
Well, congratulations, Nicholas.

169
00:08:38,213 --> 00:08:41,042
You just passed step one.

170
00:08:50,834 --> 00:08:52,706
Merry Christmas.

171
00:08:52,836 --> 00:08:56,187
Is this absolutely necessary?

172
00:08:56,274 --> 00:08:57,972
Yes, it's absolutely necessary.

173
00:08:58,059 --> 00:08:59,626
Come on in and close the door.

174
00:08:59,713 --> 00:09:01,845
And...
[door closes]

175
00:09:01,976 --> 00:09:04,199
Come sit on Santa's lap.

176
00:09:04,282 --> 00:09:05,893
What happens
in Santa's workshop,

177
00:09:05,980 --> 00:09:07,202
stays in Santa's workshop.

178
00:09:07,285 --> 00:09:08,639
Come on.

179
00:09:08,722 --> 00:09:10,724
-Come on, come on.
-Okay.

180
00:09:10,854 --> 00:09:12,377
-There we go.
-All right, now,

181
00:09:12,464 --> 00:09:15,467
tell Santa what you
want for Christmas.

182
00:09:15,555 --> 00:09:18,514
Um, I...

183
00:09:18,645 --> 00:09:21,735
I want to be happy.

184
00:09:21,822 --> 00:09:23,784
-Nah, that doesn't work.
-That's not a thing.

185
00:09:23,867 --> 00:09:25,220
Okay? I need
something specific.

186
00:09:25,303 --> 00:09:27,262
What do you want?

187
00:09:27,392 --> 00:09:29,486
You mean a toy car or something?

188
00:09:29,569 --> 00:09:31,788
No, Nick, I don't mean a toy car

189
00:09:31,875 --> 00:09:33,620
because you're a grown man.

190
00:09:33,703 --> 00:09:35,274
I can feel your fully
descended testicles

191
00:09:35,357 --> 00:09:36,880
on my leg right now.

192
00:09:37,011 --> 00:09:38,360
Something specific.

193
00:09:38,447 --> 00:09:40,405
What is at the root
of your trauma?

194
00:09:40,492 --> 00:09:41,889
I-I don't know.

195
00:09:41,972 --> 00:09:43,848
I don't know what's at
the root of my trauma.

196
00:09:43,931 --> 00:09:45,980
Yes, you do, we've been
talking about this all night.

197
00:09:46,063 --> 00:09:48,805
Come on.
It's your...

198
00:09:48,892 --> 00:09:50,245
Your...

199
00:09:50,328 --> 00:09:51,852
D.. da...

200
00:09:51,939 --> 00:09:53,070
My dad?

201
00:09:53,201 --> 00:09:54,855
Yes, Captain Obvious!

202
00:09:54,942 --> 00:09:57,771
You want your dad to come back
on Christmas morning,

203
00:09:57,858 --> 00:09:59,599
and Santa can help

204
00:09:59,686 --> 00:10:01,953
bring him to you,
but you have to ask.

205
00:10:02,036 --> 00:10:04,433
Listen, I appreciate what
you're trying to do here,

206
00:10:04,516 --> 00:10:06,523
but I honestly... I don't
think this is for me...

207
00:10:06,606 --> 00:10:08,002
Oh, for the love of Frosty.

208
00:10:08,085 --> 00:10:09,913
All right, get the camera.
Come on.

209
00:10:10,044 --> 00:10:12,050
I wasn't planning on doing this
until much later in the process

210
00:10:12,133 --> 00:10:14,313
but you forced my hand,
you doubting Thomas.

211
00:10:14,396 --> 00:10:15,963
You want proof Santa's real?

212
00:10:16,050 --> 00:10:17,621
Come on. Come on.

213
00:10:17,704 --> 00:10:19,183
You ready?

214
00:10:19,270 --> 00:10:21,229
Yeah.

215
00:10:29,019 --> 00:10:31,983
There it is.

216
00:10:32,066 --> 00:10:34,808
Took this picture when
I was ten years old.

217
00:10:34,895 --> 00:10:37,288
In a room not unlike this one,

218
00:10:37,375 --> 00:10:39,947
except it was much darker.

219
00:10:40,030 --> 00:10:43,294
Had my Polaroid camera hidden
under my pillow.

220
00:10:43,381 --> 00:10:45,213
I heard the footsteps
coming down the hall,

221
00:10:45,296 --> 00:10:46,950
the creak of the door.

222
00:10:47,037 --> 00:10:49,348
Saw the white beard peeking in.

223
00:10:49,431 --> 00:10:50,954
He said, "Shhh,

224
00:10:51,085 --> 00:10:53,087
don't tell anyone."

225
00:10:53,174 --> 00:10:54,686
And then I snapped the picture!

226
00:10:58,266 --> 00:10:59,789
I know, I know.
It's a shock

227
00:10:59,876 --> 00:11:01,708
when you see him in the flesh
for the first time.

228
00:11:01,791 --> 00:11:03,663
I mean, I myself,
I can barely remember

229
00:11:03,750 --> 00:11:07,405
anything from that night.

230
00:11:07,536 --> 00:11:10,147
How do you know that
wasn't just some guy

231
00:11:10,234 --> 00:11:13,590
in a Santa suit that
came into your room?

232
00:11:13,673 --> 00:11:15,892
What are you talking about?

233
00:11:16,023 --> 00:11:17,851
I mean, that could've
been anyone.

234
00:11:20,810 --> 00:11:23,683
[scoffs] I don't think so.

235
00:11:23,770 --> 00:11:25,293
No.

236
00:11:25,380 --> 00:11:27,425
He brought presents,

237
00:11:27,512 --> 00:11:29,776
and there was the celery
and the carrots.

238
00:11:29,863 --> 00:11:31,734
Oh, and he left a note.

239
00:11:31,821 --> 00:11:34,389
Yeah, the parents do all that.

240
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:45,617
No.

241
00:11:45,705 --> 00:11:48,664
No, don't you project your
daddy trauma onto me?

242
00:11:48,751 --> 00:11:50,971
What're you, what are
you trying to say here?

243
00:11:51,058 --> 00:11:52,977
That it wasn't Santa
that came into my room,

244
00:11:53,060 --> 00:11:55,845
but just some random guy?

245
00:11:55,932 --> 00:11:57,677
And the reason I can't
remember it is because what?

246
00:11:57,760 --> 00:11:59,806
Because he raped me?

247
00:11:59,893 --> 00:12:02,421
-Oh...
-That's, that's insane.

248
00:12:02,504 --> 00:12:05,550
Where'd you get a crazy idea
like that from?

249
00:12:05,637 --> 00:12:08,945
Um. Look, man...

250
00:12:09,076 --> 00:12:11,992
This has been super helpful,
but here, I...

251
00:12:12,079 --> 00:12:13,428
No, no, no, no, no, no...

252
00:12:13,558 --> 00:12:15,347
-I just...
-Don't turn this around on me.

253
00:12:15,430 --> 00:12:16,953
Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh.

254
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:18,567
I think you got some
things you gotta process.

255
00:12:18,650 --> 00:12:21,262
This is your trauma, not mine.

256
00:12:21,349 --> 00:12:22,916
We're working on you tonight.

257
00:12:23,003 --> 00:12:24,443
I am fine.

258
00:12:24,526 --> 00:12:26,441
I am fi... I am fine!

259
00:12:28,878 --> 00:12:30,750
[descending footsteps]

260
00:12:35,667 --> 00:12:37,626
Okay.

261
00:12:50,117 --> 00:12:52,772
Dr. A?

262
00:12:54,948 --> 00:12:56,693
♪ Deck the Halls
with boughs of holly ♪

263
00:12:56,776 --> 00:12:58,690
♪ Egg-a-egg-a-nog,
a-nog-nog-nog ♪

264
00:12:58,778 --> 00:13:01,084
You're just in time
for caroling and egg-a-nog.

265
00:13:01,171 --> 00:13:02,524
-Here, here...
-No, I... look.

266
00:13:02,607 --> 00:13:04,439
Um. Thank you.
But, um,

267
00:13:04,522 --> 00:13:05,915
I, I, I gotta go.

268
00:13:06,002 --> 00:13:07,268
-No, no, no.
-Why do you need to go?

269
00:13:07,351 --> 00:13:08,835
We're almost done
with the program.

270
00:13:08,918 --> 00:13:10,881
-Come on, have some nog.
-No, no, maybe, um,

271
00:13:10,964 --> 00:13:13,401
you mentioned earlier,
a thousand dollars.

272
00:13:13,488 --> 00:13:16,839
I was thinking maybe
I could just take half.

273
00:13:16,970 --> 00:13:18,232
Maybe...

274
00:13:18,319 --> 00:13:21,017
Could, could we do that?

275
00:13:21,104 --> 00:13:22,889
You want half of the money

276
00:13:22,976 --> 00:13:25,326
because you've finished
half of the program?

277
00:13:25,456 --> 00:13:28,198
Yeah.

278
00:13:28,285 --> 00:13:30,074
You feel good about that?

279
00:13:30,157 --> 00:13:32,159
I... I feel
pretty good about it.

280
00:13:35,249 --> 00:13:36,733
So if you went
to the blood bank,

281
00:13:36,816 --> 00:13:40,297
and you gave them half a bag
of blood, you'd ask

282
00:13:40,384 --> 00:13:41,781
for half the...
that's not how it works.

283
00:13:41,864 --> 00:13:43,087
You gotta give the full bag
of blood, Nick.

284
00:13:43,170 --> 00:13:44,436
Come on, I think
you're just nervous.

285
00:13:44,519 --> 00:13:46,220
Have some nog.
Let's finish this thing.

286
00:13:46,303 --> 00:13:47,435
I don't like nog...

287
00:13:47,522 --> 00:13:48,875
Well, that's part
of the problem.

288
00:13:48,958 --> 00:13:50,007
You need to get in
the Christmas spirit.

289
00:13:50,090 --> 00:13:51,312
But I'm lactose-intolerant.

290
00:13:51,395 --> 00:13:52,792
Well, this is soy nog,
so it's okay.

291
00:13:52,875 --> 00:13:54,663
-I just don't like to...
-Drink the nog, Nick!

292
00:13:54,746 --> 00:13:56,100
Yes!

293
00:13:56,183 --> 00:13:58,359
Okay. Down the hatch.

294
00:13:58,446 --> 00:14:00,317
-[Nick sighs]
-Come on.

295
00:14:00,404 --> 00:14:02,323
And then like...

296
00:14:02,406 --> 00:14:04,844
Yeah, absolutely, absolutely.

297
00:14:04,974 --> 00:14:07,067
Yes!

298
00:14:07,150 --> 00:14:08,935
Now all we have left

299
00:14:09,022 --> 00:14:10,762
is the grand finale, Nick.

300
00:14:10,850 --> 00:14:12,420
-Grand finale?
-Yes.

301
00:14:12,503 --> 00:14:14,379
Tomorrow morning when
Santa comes down that chimney

302
00:14:14,462 --> 00:14:16,163
right there and we get final
proof that he's real.

303
00:14:16,246 --> 00:14:17,807
When you finally
come to Santa...

304
00:14:17,900 --> 00:14:19,688
-Tomorrow? No, man.
-I gotta get home.

305
00:14:19,771 --> 00:14:21,473
What are you going
to do at home, Nick?

306
00:14:21,556 --> 00:14:23,605
What are you, gonna watch
<i>Looney Toons</i> cartoons on a TV

307
00:14:23,688 --> 00:14:25,651
in your sad trailer where you
put a gun in your mouth

308
00:14:25,734 --> 00:14:27,261
looking at pictures
of your dead ex-wife?

309
00:14:27,344 --> 00:14:29,046
-I don't know what that is.
-Is that <i>Gremlins?</i>

310
00:14:29,129 --> 00:14:30,830
No, that is Mel Gibson
in <i>Lethal Weapon.</i>

311
00:14:30,913 --> 00:14:32,527
<i>Gremlins</i> is when the guy
falls down and breaks his neck.

312
00:14:32,610 --> 00:14:33,790
-Come on, just stay...
-Look, man...

313
00:14:33,873 --> 00:14:35,313
I don't want any more nog, man.

314
00:14:35,396 --> 00:14:36,967
Look, I'm trying to
be nice, okay?

315
00:14:37,050 --> 00:14:39,230
But you clearly have
issues with your dad, okay?

316
00:14:39,313 --> 00:14:40,488
And I, I don't...

317
00:14:40,575 --> 00:14:42,925
Stop saying my dad raped me.

318
00:14:43,012 --> 00:14:45,319
That's not cool, especially
on Christmas Eve.

319
00:14:45,406 --> 00:14:46,890
-Come on...
-I'm sorry, where's...

320
00:14:46,973 --> 00:14:49,236
Where's my bag?

321
00:14:49,366 --> 00:14:50,977
My bag?

322
00:14:51,064 --> 00:14:53,718
-Your bag?
-Yeah.

323
00:14:53,805 --> 00:14:54,985
I don't know.

324
00:14:55,068 --> 00:14:56,547
Where'd you leave it?
