Previously on Masters Of Sex...

I said that we'd be friends.

You're kicking me out.

Tell you what?

That I don't like being
dragged out here in the cold

when you're drunk
and insulting?!

Why would I insult you
when you're all I think about?

The flowers were an apology,

as was my letter,
my phone calls--

Stay away from me.

I mean it.

The truth is
Virginia's the one missing out.

I'm perfect for her.

And I'm not going to be
on the market long.

You didn't want to get married?

Are we talking
about my husbands again?

So there's more than one?

I can't conduct my research

in a brothel.

And this study will suffocate.

Dear, God.
You are a dog with a bone.

You know, I met
a young man at the brothel,

a prostitute, a homosexual.

The men who pay to see him,
they're salesmen or lawyers

or a provost
of a major university.

I'm begging you to reconsider.

What the hell is this, Bill?

Two years, and nothing.

Why can't I have a baby?

My wife is coming in next week.

I've decided she'll join
my cervical cap trial.

Bill thinks that
he can do everything by himself.

But technically, I'm the one
who got his wife pregnant.

Masters Of Sex - 1x04
"Thank You For Coming"

Do we both orgasm?

Yes.

Not always at the same time.

But sure. Climaxing's
not a problem for her.

And do you two
rely on the same positions

again and again?

She likes to mix it up
position-wise.

But we usually start off
the same way,

with, um...

with me going down on her,

and me warming her up.

She's, uh-- she's not shy.

She tells me how fast to go,

how long to stay
in a certain spot.

Is this the kind of stuff
you want to hear?

_

Tonight, you will be
participating in a medical study

that examines the physiology
of sexual response

during automanipulation.

Essentially, what happens
to the body during masturbation.

You'll be asked to identify
yourself by name only once,

after which time,
your identity will be encrypted.

A record connecting
your name with your code number

will be maintained
in a secure location

that is separate from
the data files in the archive.

It will not be possible
to identify you personally

from the information you provide
for this study.

At this point,
we will interview you

and record your responses.

You may find
the questions intimate.

Please answer
as candidly as possible.

Once we have
a good understanding

of your sexual history,

you'll be taken
into an examining room

where Dr. masters will give you
a general-health assessment.

Following that,
we will introduce you

to the equipment that will
monitor your physical responses

Then we will ask you to disrobe.

And we will place electrodes
on certain parts of your body.

You will be provided

with whatever stimulation
you may require.

And then we will ask you to...

Begin.

Shall we get started?

Thank you for coming.

Pam?

I'm afraid I had to kill her.

George. You scared me.

I let her go early
and made dinner for the kids.

Mm, I see. Cereal.

Well, spaghetti--

or a failed attempt
at spaghetti.

Cereal was the fallback.

What's this?

Nothing. Work.

Oh, didn't you
have a gig somewhere?

Yeah, Cleveland.
I just got back.

Well, do they pay you in cash?
Because I could really use--

No, it got canceled, actually.

Macelli's Imperial Dance Hall

burnt to the ground
last Saturday.

We showed up for work
to a smoking pile of rubble.

I'm out two hotel rooms,
four bus fares,

and 20% of the door.

Hey, have you eaten yet?

I can make you a plate.

You would make
a terrible wife...

although I'm one to talk,
right?

George, I have two hours
of reading left to do.

Come on! It's 10:00.

Seems these days,
all you do is work.

What's happened to you, Gin?

I grew up.

And just so you know,

the kids are not allowed

to watch television
on school nights.

You have too many rules.

And you don't have any.

Well, you used to like
breaking rules with me.

George.

You remember in Miami

when we got tossed out
of that hotel

'cause you were making
all that noise.

I was not making
as much noise as you were.

I miss your noises.

George, please.
Come on.

Don't stop, baby.

Yes. Yes.

You are not sleeping over.

Don't stop.

Yes. Yes.

Oh, yes. Yes.

Bill!

I used to sleepwalk
a lot as a child.

One morning, my father, uh,
went to get the paper

and found me sitting behind
the wheel of his Plymouth,

fast asleep,
my hands on the wheel.

But that was
years and years ago.

And you weren't aware
that you were doing any of it?

Didn't hear the racket?

I'm sure our neighbors did.

Well, I'm sorry
to-- to have scared you.

Do you think
it might have been triggered

by anxiety... about the baby?

No, of course not.

Let's get back to bed--
big day tomorrow,

which could be an altogether
different kind of nightmare.

Oh, stop.

She's only gonna be here
for a week.

We rarely see her.

You can endure her
for seven days.

Yeah. I'm sorry it's gonna
fall to you to keep her entertained.

It's fine.

I'm happy for the distraction,
actually.

Besides, she says
that all she wants to do

is spend time
with her grandchild,

which doesn't involve much more
than this.

Hmm?

Well, just so long
as you're prepared

to do a lot of caretaking.

The woman is helpless.
She can't make a decision.

She can't read a train schedule,
can't balance a checkbook.

Sweetheart, in four months,
we're gonna have another visitor

who needs everything
done for him.

Maybe we should look
at this time with your mother

as a dress rehearsal.

We ate all
the sugar snacks last night.

Could you make us pancakes?

Sure thing, buddy.

You and daddy had a sleepover?

Yes, daddy slept over.
He slept.

He collapsed the second
his head hit the pillow.

Henry, can you go
wake up your sister?

The bus leaves in--
it leaves in 20 minutes.

Sweetie, can you go wake her up,
please?

What the hell
are you still doing here?

I told you
that you could not stay over!

What's the big deal, Gin?

The big deal
is that he's going to think

that his parents
have gotten back together.

George, just say goodbye
to the kids and go home.

Yeah, well...

I can't exactly... go home.

Desalvo changed
the locks on me.

I'm three months behind
on my rent.

Baby, I am this close
to having the car repossessed,

I mean, I had to hock
that old drum kit

that I was gonna teach Henry
how to play.

Did you know
that you had been locked out

when you came here last night?

I thought
I'd sleep on the couch.

Oh.

Can you-- can you spot me
anything, Gin?

I'm living out of a suitcase.

I've been turning my underwear
inside out since Thursday.

Well, I have been
working 16 hours a day,

and I can barely afford
to pay for a babysitter.

Well, why don't I watch
the kids for a couple of weeks?

You can pay me slightly less
than you pay your girl.

I am not paying you

to babysit your own children,
George Johnson!

It's win-win.

You look
as if you've seen a ghost!

Mother, I--

Libby said you weren't due in
till 10:00.

God, did I make a mistake?

No, darling, no.

My sister got me to the airport
very early.

And Darlene
sends her love to you.

And I saw that there was a 7:00
leaving for St. Louis,

so I just... hopped on it.

Uh...

There. Thank you.

Oh, my goodness!

Look at you!

You are glowing!

Oh, you think so?

Let me see.
Turn sideways.

There's no hiding that.

Oh, I'm so excited for you.

For both of you.

I know what you're thinking,
Billy-- red.

Well, I've decided
to wear more color.

Four years in black is enough.

And I'm sure your father
would understand.

Now, Libby, you must show me
what you're planning

in the nursery,
because I have some ideas.

Oh.

My goodness.

Marjorie, how've you been?

Fine. You?
Stand anyone up lately?

Uh...

I-I thought I explained
what happened. Um...

Yes, well,
that endometrial ablation

that you had to perform--

I checked
the surgical schedule.

They were re-laying linoleum
in the OR that night.

So I guess
I'm not the only one who knows

how you like your eggs
in the morning.

Hello, Selma.

Velma.

It's Velma. With a "V."

I meant to call. I--

And I meant
to put that on your plate.

What a heartbreaker
you are, Dr. Haas.

Don't you have that backwards?

Hi.

Hi. Remember me?

Sure. Sure, I do.

It's okay.

It was a long time ago.
I'd just turned 16.

16?

Did I know you were 16?

Well, sure you did.

You were at my birthday party.

Daddy invited you.

The band was playing
"Embraceable You,"

and I screwed up my courage
and asked you to dance.

You dipped me,
like they do in the movies.

You are
Provost Scully's daughter.

Vivian.

I'm in college now.

Daddy said
if I did some volunteering

at the hospital,
he'd buy me a car.

So that was one good reason.

Want to maybe guess
the other reason?

I'll be 19 very soon.

Well, if it's a girl, Michella.

If it's a boy,
Nicholas-- after my father.

Ah. I see you
still working in the laundry.

How much longer
do you intend to come in?

My doctor says I can
work right up until the baby--

my doctor before.

He is nice man,

but he doesn't understand
what I tell him,

that this is my last baby.

Is it another cesarean
you're worried about?

- Because a lot of women--
- No, it's not.

I cannot afford another child.

I see. This is your...

Second.

I have a son, Daniel.
He is eight years.

I know there is an operation.

And I know you could fix me
after the baby comes

so there are no more.

Well, there are
less permanent ways

to prevent a pregnancy.

Contraception--

My husband
won't take... steps.

An elective tubal ligation

requires the husband's consent

before the hospital
sterilization committee

will even consider
the procedure.

Uh...

without it,
they would never sanction it.

I'm sorry, my English.

I'm afraid I can't help you.

Virginia? I-- Virginia?

What are you doing?

Nothing, sir.
Just waiting for my mother.

What have you got
underneath your coat?

I'm sorry, sir.

I was just looking at it,
and it just broke.

It's-- it's--
it's supposed to come apart.

It's a teaching model.

So you're not sore?

W-why would I be sore?

A stupid kid comes in
and messes with my stuff,

I'd want to knock
some goddamn sense into him.

Gini.

Gini, come meet
my mother-in-law.

Mother, this is
Virginia Johnson-- Bill's assistant.

- Oh.
- Gini, Estabrooks Masters.

- Hello.
- Essie.

Libby says you are absolutely
indispensable to my son.

And to me, as well.

Well, we'll see how well
he fared without me this morning.

I'm an hour late.

Did the kids hold you up?

- Gini's got two.
- Oh.

No, actually,
it was my ex-husband.

It's a long story.

Oh.

Well, in my opinion,

you have to draw the line
with him.

You know how he would get
the message loud and clear?

If you started seeing
someone else.

Uh-huh.

Any particular someone
you have in mind, Libby?

There are a few avenues
that I'm scoring.

What are you
doing here, mother?

Oh, hello, dear.

I was hoping you might
give me the five-cent tour

while Libby is having
her checkup.

I have a--
a very full schedule.

Why don't I see if I
can shuffle some things around?

You're late, Virginia.

I had a 9:00, and you were
nowhere to be found.

Well, that was
her ex-husband's fault.

He spent the night, and she couldn't
get him out the door this morning.

On the sofa.

He spent the night on the sofa.

He's having
some financial issues.

Well, is that gonna
continue to be a problem?

No. No.

I'm sorry.
It won't happen again.

Will you excuse me?

You're not gonna
show me your--

Billy?

W-why don't I show you
Bill's office?

Ugh. It's a shame
I didn't see the place sooner.

But you know, my husband
so hated hospitals.

Mrs. Zelinksy.

Oh, you met my boy.

When you said
you couldn't afford...

another child,

it had nothing to do with money,
did it?

Why don't you leave?

And go where?

There is only his brother,
and it's the same there.

There is no one
to make it better except you.

One day, maybe, with two babies,
I could leave.

But with three or four, Doctor?

I'd have to stay forever.

11 pounds.

Oh?
My bathroom scale said 16.

Let me guess.

You're one of those women
who adjusts her scale

to read five pounds heavier
in order to trick herself

into losing weight.

How well you know women.

Oh, believe me,

a few of them
are total mysteries,

which is why I am
swearing off them for awhile.

Oh, please.

You're the most eligible
bachelor in St. Louis.

I could find you

the perfect girl
in five minutes.

I already found her.

Problem is she broke my heart.

20 centimeters.

That is right on track
for 22 weeks.

Ethan, you have to be
open to meeting someone new.

If this girl threw you back,

then she wasn't
the right one for you.

Oh, but she was.

You know how
in that "Wizard Of Oz" movie--

- that girl, Dorothy?
Mm-hmm.

How she goes
on this amazing adventure

that's all in
glorious technicolor, right?

And then she ends up
back on the farm

in boring black and white.

That's how it was
with this woman.

Before her, I knew exactly
how my life was going to go.

And then I met her,
and suddenly I could see

a totally different future
for myself.

In color.

Once you've seen Oz,
who wants to go back to Kansas?

- How many tonight?
- Three.

First one may be a no-show.

It's just a feeling.

He sounded strange
on the phone.

I'll go check
to see if anybody's here.

Am I in the right place?

I'm here for the study.

Well? Anyone?

- Yeah. You ready for me?
- Absolutely.

Uh, I'm Dr. Masters.
This is Mrs. Johnson.

Walter McAddy.

Nice to meet you.

Walter McAddy.

I saw your flyer.

Looking forward
to helping you two out tonight.

Good. Take a seat.
Let's get started.

What we'll be doing

is measuring
your genital reaction,

both intra-and extra-genital,

to sexual self-stimulation.

Now, initially,

you may be uncomfortable
being observed.

It takes some getting used to,

but people generally do.

We will be interrupting
you occasionally

to take some measurements.

And what we can't observe,

these machines
will help us to monitor...

...your pulse,
your blood pressure...

...your perspiration,
your breathing.

We will need you
to remove your clothes...

- ...your panties...
- ...your socks.

Sir, your hat.

We're going to apply
these sensors to your skin.

- The goal is to relax...
- ...lie back...

...touch yourself how you
generally do when you're alone.

Phase one.

Areolae
at 4.5 centimeters.

Tensing and thickening
of integument.

Phallus at 9.6 centimeters.

Maculopapular rash
on epigastrium.

Moving into plateau phase.

138 BPMs.

175.

Turgidity of nipples.

Color change in coronal area.

Hyperventilation.

Testicular enlargement.

- Stop.
- What?

Mrs. Johnson needs
to get a measurement.

14.9 centimeters.

What's that in inches?

Orgasmic phase.

Withdrawal of clitoral shaft.

It's okay
to close your eyes, you know.

That smells good, Essie.

Is that coconut?

I saw the recipe in a magazine.

It's called Island Chicken.

There's pineapple in it, too.

I put the table leaf in.

Honey, can you do
the place cards?

And if you bring in
the ice bucket,

I'll give it a polish.

If I have a little
too much to drink tonight,

all I need is a little nudge
under the table.

Since when do you drink?

Darlene has
a cocktail with dinner,

and occasionally I join her.

All these years,

your father only allowed
scotch in the house,

which was never
to my taste, so...

Have you ever had a Tom Collins?
It's delicious.

We can serve them tonight.

I'll see
how we're fixed for gin.

I'm glad you're here.

Careful, or we're never
gonna let you leave.

Do you mean that?

Because...

I was wondering how you'd feel

if I were to spend
more time here.

You mean extend your visit?

No, I mean
move here to St. Louis.

Look at you, sweetheart.
You've gone pale.

Of course I wouldn't move in
with you and Bill.

I'd get my own apartment.

It could be close enough

so that I could help out
with the baby.

Ethan? Who's Ethan?

Ethan Haas, silly.

You invited him?

And Virginia?
You in-- you invited Virginia?

Why, Christ, Lib,

what are you doing,
setting them up?

They already know each other.
They see each other every day.

Yes, but that is
a professional context.

She's not right for him at all.

She's much older than he is.

Divorced twice.

A woman of the world!

Some men find that
very alluring!

She has two children.

Yes, and she is bringing them.

That way, Ethan can get
to know them casually

before he and Gini get serious.

Please and thank-yous, remember?

- Yes.
- Napkins on laps.

And if you don't like
the food--

here,
if you don't like the food,

- all you have you have to do--
- Virginia.

What're you doing here?

What do you mean?
Libby invited me.

Who's he? Who are you?

I'm Dr. Haas.
And who are you?

I'm Henry.
She's Tessa.

Dr. Haas and I
work together at the hospit--

Why are you smiling?

It's a fix-up.

She's fixing us up.

Did you put her up to this?

Of course not.

I-I am as surprised
as you are.

Do you give shots?

Well, yes. Sometimes.

I don't like you.

I don't like him.

She's an incredibly
perceptive child.

Come on. Come on.

It took Caroline a
period of adjustment, of course,

but now I think she sees
the value

of having a set of grandparents

living close by
to the little ones.

How about you, Bill?

The thought of your mother here
living so close by--

that got you spooked?

Oh, I'm not a meddler.

I know how to keep
out of the way.

Yeah.

Look, I know
why you're mad at me.

And I don't blame you.

But I didn't know
about any of this.

All she did
was invite me to dinner.

You could have said no.

Why?

M-maybe I was hoping

she'd introduce me
to some girl,

someone who'd make me forget
about you...

although, honestly, I don't know
if that's even possible.

Don't get sloppy, Ethan.

Henry, tell us,

what is your favorite subject
in school?

PE.

That's not really
a subject, now, is it?

Essie.

What can you tell us

about Bill
when he was a little boy?

Oh, yes. Please.

Has he told you about
his campaign for long pants?

Oh, for goodness' sake, mother.

Well, he begged us for months,

and I told him, I said, "Billy,

your father's not gonna pay
for a new pair of trousers

until you've outgrown
your last pair of knickers."

Really, mother,
no one's interested.

We are.
Aren't we, Gini?

Yes.

Well, he had
this one pair of knickers

that were still
too big for him.

So he went and got my sewing box
and a pair of scissors,

and he shortened
the legs of those things.

He actually hemmed them
himself,

and he took in the waistline
himself.

And it was as neat
as any seamstress.

A surgeon even then, huh?

Well, I thought
he'd had a sudden growth spurt,

well, but, his father didn't,
uh, buy into that for a minute.

I was made
to wear those knickers

until I was 14.

14.

Please pass the rolls,
Marilyn, won't you?

Ah,
well, I think I've had enough,

and it was quite good,
if I do say so myself.

- Shut up!

He shouldn't have eaten

He's got a sensitive stomach.

Shut up, Tess.

Ah, shit!

We're not allowed
to call it that.

I'm sorry. Are you mad?

No, I'm not mad.
Stop that!

People wash their hands
with those!

I'll take care of it.

I want to help!

Out.

Thank you so much.

Thanks again, Bill.

What do you say?

Thank you so much
for inviting us.

And I'm sorry about the mess.

Oh, don't give it
another thought. Right, Bill?

These things happen.

Get your coat.

I'm taking off, too.

Libby. Bill.

You're not taking the bus, are you?

I'll drive you.
It's on my way.

You know her address?

No, I-- just the general
vinicit-- vinci-- vincinity.

That's okay.
We'll be fine.

Thank you. Good night.

Thank you both again.

Let me understand this.

You'd rather, uh, haul your two
kids on a bus at 11:00 at night

than have me drive you home?

I'll drive you home.

Come on. That's stupid.
Bill, it's on my way.

- You know--
- I said I'm driving her home.

I'll need to take the Cadillac.

Um, the keys are in my purse.

Maybe you should have

another cup of coffee
before you go, Ethan.

Hey, you know what, Virginia?

Fuck you.

It's okay.

Libby means well.

She just wants everyone
to be as happy as she is...

which these days
is an especially tall order.

She is radiant, Bill.

Yes, she is.

She's going to make
a wonderful mother.

Did you know you were
good at it before you had them?

I don't know
that I am good at it.

Ethan.

You left this the other day,

in the cafeteria.

It had your address on it,
so I thought I'd bring it by.

You could say "Thank you."

Thanks. Sorry.

I've had, um...

I have had a night.

Do you want to come in...

Vivian.

Vivian.

I'd love to.

Guess who's been
standing at attention

ever since
the hospital last night.

Look, if I'd given you
the heads up I was coming over,

you would've said no.

Goddamn right, I would've.

That is my job.
What are you trying to do?

Are you trying to get me fired?

No,
I was trying to make a buck--

which I did,
thank you very much.

I bought some time
with my landlord.

And you-- you got some
measurements for your study.

So I'd say it worked out
for both of us.

You honestly can't
understand how your involvement

could have compromised
my standing with my boss?

Because we're exes?

No one's gonna know about that.

And I guarantee you

that every other clown in your
little study uses a fake name.

That little study

is keeping a roof over
your kids' heads, George.

It's keeping shoes
on their feet,

and it's keeping food
in the icebox!

Okay.

That is a hell of a lot more

than I can say
for their father!

Sorry it's a mess.
I'm hardly ever home.

You don't have people over?

- Girls?
- Sometimes.

Sometimes I have girls over,
and they never notice

because I don't even turn
the lights on.

What do you think about that?

You like it
with the lights off?

On or off.

Both.

You?

Depends.

You ever been with a boy
you didn't like that much

and pretended
it was one you did?

And did it work?

Yeah, it didn't work that well
for me, either.

What guy did you want it to be?

If I told you,
I'd probably scare you away.

You want another?

You feel like
taking your sweater off?

Right now?

Okay.

How does that feel?

Cold.

But, you know, good.

Are you going to answer that?

Fuck it.

What is it?

No. I can't.
Ask Ellsberg.

How-- how high is her fever?

How far along?

No.

Can't you find someone else?!

Fine. Prep the OR.
I'm on my way.

Can you give me a ride?

Dr. Haas?

Dr. Haas?

We're ready for you now,
Doctor.

There was nothing
to write home about,

but Lenore's taking us
to see a few more places today.

There's a duplex on Fairfield
she's excited for us to see.

Good morning!

I was just filling Bill in

on our
real-estate adventures.

Libby, you know that two-bedroom

with the green shutters?

The one with the
smoke stains above the mantel?

You'd have thought
they'd have painted.

I've decided
to make an offer on it.

It's the first house
you've seen.

Third.
We saw two others first.

Still.

Look, it needs some
paint and a chimney sweeping.

But I can probably do better
on the price

if it isn't in ship-shape.

If it suits my needs,
why not grab it?

In a few months,
if I don't love it,

I'll find something else.

Well, that's
a very cavalier attitude.

Look, it's not that my sister

hasn't been generous,
because she has.

But Darlene isn't
the easiest person in the world

to get along with.

She's got a very strong
point of view,

and you can't change her mind
about anything.

And I think the sooner
I find a place here, the better.

So Darlene
is hard for you to bear?

Well, she's-- she's very moody.

And I have had enough.
It's time for me to go.

Well, good for you,

for taking care of yourself,
recognizing your limits.

I'm trying to.

Oh, and succeeding.
I mean, look at you.

Traveling on your own,

making decisions
on the spur of the moment,

taking the risk that things
will work out someplace new.

I honestly didn't think
you had it in you, mother.

Bill, what kind
of a thing is that to say?

It's better late
than never, son.

Is it?

What are you doing?!
I said put that down!

Daddy, I'm sorry!

- No! How many times?!
- Sorry!

How many times now?!

- One!
- No!

Two!

Help me!

Help me!

Clamps and cup.

Thank you. Thank you.

And there we go.

What do you have there,
Florene?

It's a boy.

Nicholas.
After her father.

Hey, looks like there's
a bleed in there.

I'm sorry, sir. Where?

Kelly clamp, please.

I'm not seeing it.

Damn.
On the other side, too.

Isn't that her fallopian--

It's another bleeder, Farraday.

Are you certain, sir, becau--

Are you questioning
my authority here, Doctor?

No, sir.

Good.
Then let's tie them both off.

Plain suture, please.

Aspirin.

Thanks.

Is your patient--
Fine.

Very, very lucky.

I'm sorry about last night.

I was punishing someone,
but it ended up being you.

It's okay.

No.

No, it's not.

I used to think
I was a pretty good guy.

You were good to me.

Jesus, come on.

At my Sweet 16,

I had these awful bangs
and pimples

and an overbite like Mister Ed.

And I asked you to dance
because I knew you'd say no.

And that would confirm
everything

I already thought about myself.

But you didn't say no.

You said yes.

"It'd be my pleasure,"
you said.

You in your tux.

You looked so handsome
in black and white.

I didn't
expect it to take so long.

I was getting worried.

Hey, knock that off!

Thanks a million, Doc.
We owe you.

If you ever need me
to set you up

with a set of tires, say--

What do you think of Nicholas?

Andrew.
We're calling him Andrew.

Stan's brother.

Have you held him yet?

I told him,
I says, "You're gonna drop him."

I wouldn't.

You can hold him
when he's bigger.

But he'll just be
heavier when he's bigger.

Hey!
What did I say?

My kid's got
a smart mouth on him, Doctor.

Maybe this one
will be a little better behaved.

And the next one,
please, God, a girl.

You hear that, honey?

Thank you, Doctor.

Can you look after this for me?

Do you have that letter
of recommendation

I promised Hellwarth?

Bill,
I've made a terrible mistake.

Okay.
Well, retype it, then.

No, uh, an error in judgment.

Well, wouldn't be
the first time, would it?

No, which is why I wanted

to come clean about it
right away.

Are you intentionally
being cryptic?

I allowed someone I
know to participate in the study

without disclosing
the nature of our relationship.

My ex-husband.

I see.

Not that it's any excuse,

but he-- he has lost
a few gigs recently.

He's really strapped.

And he--

he saw that we were offering
a fee to the participants.

How recently was this?
I don't recall a Johnson.

Oh, he used a different name.

Which was?

I would prefer not to say.

Bill, I know that I put
the study at risk once before,

but this is different,

it shouldn't comprise
our research in-- in any way.

Regardless of who he is,
the data is still sound.

I don't think
that you need to know.

I agree.

How many sexual partners
do you estimate you've had?

Two maybe?

Any children?

Praise the Lord, yes.

There's Linda-Lee
and Marcus Jr.

Are you generally
the one to initiate coitus?

Well, these days.

She used to like
calling the shots in bed.

She's-- she's like that,
a take-charge kind of woman.

Sometimes we'd go dancing.

There'd come a point
where I'd have to say,

"You know, honey, sometimes

it wouldn't kill you
to let me lead."

Walter McAddy.

Oh, you're so sweet
to do all the dishes.

I get so tired
in the evening lately.

I set a plate aside for Bill.

- Oh. He often works late.
- Mm.

Try not to take it
personally. I don't.

Only sometimes you do.

To be honest, I-I--

I think he's on edge
about the baby.

For a man who expects his work
to change the world,

he doesn't want his life
to change too much.

Well, a baby changes everything.

What was Bill's father like?

He doesn't talk much about him.

Well... Francis wasn't a...

bad man.

That's not the same thing
as being a good man.

Bill is a good man.

I know.

Maybe if he
understood his father better,

and-- and you and he
talked more about him--

Oh, honey.

You don't know men very well.

Women look back.

But men,
they just look straight ahead.

Disappointment and... regret--

that's where we live.

But men, they run from it.

Toward what?

Well, I guess,

toward the best distraction
there is--

pleasure.

Thank you
for coming back, Mr. McAddy.

So, you said on the
phone it's just gonna be you?

Uh, we've found that, uh,
the presence of a female researcher

can be inhibiting for a male
and vice versa.

So we sometimes find it best
to follow up, uh,

with one-on-ones.

So, no jerking off, right?

No.

Just talking...

about what attracts you
to someone,

how you receive pleasure,
how you give it.

Chemistry, right?

Uh, I didn't do too good at it
in school,

but I get an A-plus in it
in bed.

There was a woman
you mentioned in your interview,

someone you said you see
off and on?

Yeah.

Oh, is it all right
if I record this?

Is intercourse always a mutually
satisfying experience for you?

You mean do we both orgasm?

Yes.

Not always at the same time.

But sure. Climaxing's
not a problem for her.

And do you two
rely on the same positions

again and again?

She likes to mix it up
position-wise.

But we usually start
the same way,

you know,

with me going down on her,

and me warming her up.

She's not shy.

She'll tell me how fast to go,

how long to stay
in a certain spot.

Is this the kind of stuff
you want to hear?

She sometimes likes it
when I half pull out,

when I'm barely inside,

and she'll just rock against
me, to get me deeper.

Maybe I shouldn't be talking
about this woman in particular.

She's not the norm.

If you're getting
at what it's like with me

in bed with a girl
most of the time,

- then this isn't it.
- And why is that?

Because this one's different.

She knows herself.

She knows what feels good.

- Excuse me, Bill?
- She'll tell you.

If I leave right now,

I just might be able to put
dinner on the table for my kids.

Do you mind?

- No. Go.
- Thank you.

Good night.
I'll see you tomorrow.

Good night.

And why is that?

Because this one's different.

She knows herself.

She knows what feels good.

She'll tell you.

And she wants you to tell her

what you want her to do to you,

what your fantasy is,

which is a fantasy in itself,

am I right?

I'm telling you, Doctor.

This woman...

is magic.
