[On Fire by Andy Blunda]

- YOUR LOVE IS LIKE A RIVER

YOUR LOVE IS THE FEVER

I'M ON FIRE

WE'RE ON FIRE

[rock music]

- I DON'T WANT TO GET UP.

- WELL, YOU PROBABLY
DON'T HAVE TO.

I DO.

I HAVE TO TEACH
THE EARLY CLASS TODAY,

AND THEN I HAVE A STAFF MEETING,

AND CLASSES THAT DON'T
HAVE TEACHERS TONIGHT,

SO I'M GONNA BE BUSY
ALL DAY.

- YOU'RE UP
EARLY IN THE MORNING.

- WELL, I'M, LIKE,
DOING EVERYTHING MYSELF.

I MEAN, I DON'T REALLY HAVE
ANOTHER CHOICE RIGHT NOW.

I'M AN ENTREPRENEUR,
AND I HAVE BEEN INVESTING

TIME AND ENERGY
IN GROWING MY BUSINESS.

- I KNOW, THAT'S WHAT
WE WERE TRYING TO SAY.

- I KNOW.
- JUST EVEN A FEW MINUTES.

WE WENT THROUGH
SOME BUSINESS CHANGES

THAT HAD ME TAKE ON A LOT
MORE RESPONSIBILITY AT MY GYM

AND HAVE LESS EMPLOYEES,

SO I'VE BEEN KEEPING
MY BUSINESS AFLOAT.

IT ALL FALLS
ON MY SHOULDERS,

SO I HAVE TO GET UP
AND GO TO WORK.

WHAT ARE YOU GUYS DOING?

I'M BUSY TOO, YOU KNOW,
AND THE GYM'S GOT STUDENTS,

AND I GOT ALL THE SAME STUFF
YOU GOT GOING ON.

IT'S LIKE, I WANT SOME
COMPASSION AND SOME, YOU KNOW,

AND IT'S FOR ALL OF US,
IT'S NOT JUST FOR ME.

- WE DO UNDERSTAND, WE'RE NOT
TRYING TO GIVE YOU A HARD TIME.

IT'S JUST HARD IF WE FEEL LIKE
YOU'RE GIVING US A HARD TIME

ABOUT THE AMOUNT OF TIME
WE SPEND TOGETHER

OR ABOUT NOT GIVING ENOUGH
OF OUR TIME.

WE'RE NOT THE ONES
WHO AREN'T AVAILABLE.

LEIGH ANN FEELS LIKE SHE'S NOT
GETTING ENOUGH OF MY ATTENTION,

AND I UNDERSTAND,
BUT IT'S ALSO HARD,

BECAUSE IT'S HARD
TO GIVE HER MY ATTENTION

WHEN SHE'S NOT HERE
TO RECEIVE IT.

- YOU KNOW, YOU GUYS
HAVE MORE FREE TIME,

SO YOU GUYS HAVE MORE TIME
TO SPEND TIME

I HAVE LESS TIME
TO DO IT.

IT'S JUST--
IT JUST IS WHAT IT IS.

- WELL, AT A CERTAIN POINT,
YOU LEARN THAT, YOU KNOW,

YOUR TIME IS YOUR TIME,
AND YOU HAVE TO PRIORITIZE.

IS PROJECTING
THE IRRITATION

OF OUR CONFLICTING
WORK SCHEDULES.

IT FEELS TO HER
AS IF MEGAN IS GETTING

MORE OF MY TIME
AND ATTENTION,

AND THAT'S MAGNIFYING
THIS SITUATION.

[kissing]

- SO LET'S WORK
ON THE HANDSTAND SPIN-DOWN,

'CAUSE WE'RE GONNA
ADD THAT.

I'VE BEEN POLE DANCING
FOR ABOUT 12 YEARS,

AND I'VE OWNED MY BUSINESS
FOR SEVEN YEARS.

I OPENED WHEN I WAS 25,

BUT I'VE BEEN LIVING UP
TO MY RESPONSIBILITIES

AND DOING MY JOB
TO SUPPORT THE FAMILY.

UPRIGHT, STATIC POSE,
HIT IT.

ALL THE WAY OUT,
IF YOU CAN TAKE BOTH LEGS OFF,

TAKE 'EM OFF.

WRAP THE INSIDE HIP,
INSIDE LEG.

DROP IT ALL THE WAY DOWN,

FOR YOUR HANDSTAND,

AND THEN--
OOH!

UGH.

SORRY, GUYS,
I'M A LITTLE OFF TODAY.

FINISH IT HOWEVER YOU WANT,
OKAY?

- ALL RIGHT.
- ALL RIGHT.

I GOT DISTRACTED.
IT WAS A LITTLE EMBARRASSING.

BUT, YOU KNOW,
THAT HAPPENS

BYE, HONEY.

THANK YOU, BYE.
BYE, YOU GUYS, LOVE YOU.

- YEAH,
EXCEPT FOR WHEN I FELL ON MY ASS

IN FRONT OF EVERYBODY.

- WHAT IS UP WITH THAT?

YOU NEVER FALL
ON YOUR ASS IN CLASS.

- ANDREA'S ONE OF MY GIRLFRIENDS
FROM THE GYM,

AND SHE ACTUALLY KNOWS
ABOUT OUR RELATIONSHIP,

SO SHE'S ALWAYS KIND OF
BEEN THERE TO TALK TO ABOUT IT.

WHEN I LEFT THIS MORNING,

CHRIS IS, LIKE,
TELLING ME TO STAY--

LIKE, "STAY IN BED,
HANG OUT WITH US,"

BECAUSE I'M HERE.
- MM.

- LIKE, SHE HAS FREE TIME.
SHE'S 24 YEARS OLD.

WHEN I WAS 24 YEARS OLD, ALL
I DID WAS FOLLOW HIM AROUND TOO.

MY SCHEDULE
IS DIFFERENT EVERY DAY.

I TRAVEL FOR WORK SOMETIMES,

AND THOSE ARE, LIKE,
THE OPPORTUNITIES

TO MAKE APPEARANCES,

INSIDE THE POLE DANCE COMMUNITY.

THE WAY IT'S BEEN GOING,

I'M STARTING TO FEEL LIKE
AN OUTSIDER IN MY OWN MARRIAGE.

- YEAH. ARE THINGS OKAY
WITH THE SEX AND EVERYTHING?

LIKE, ARE YOU GUYS, LIKE,
STILL HAVING SEX TOGETHER, OR--

GET TO HAVE SEX
WITH HIM ALONE.

SHE GETS TO HAVE SEX
WITH HIM ALONE ALL THE TIME,

THAT DOESN'T INCLUDE ME.

I THINK MEGAN HAS BECOME
A PRIMARY IN OUR RELATIONSHIP

BECAUSE SHE HAS EQUAL PRIVILEGES
AND RIGHTS THAT I DO.

- DO YOU AND MEGAN
HAVE SEX ALONE,

OR IS IT ALWAYS WITH CHRIS?

- IT'S MOSTLY WITH CHRIS,
BUT WE TOTALLY HAVE SEX ALONE.

LIKE, IF HE'S GONE, YOU KNOW,
WE HAVE A GREAT TIME.

BUT IT'S NOT THE SAME AS, LIKE,
WHEN THEY HAVE SEX ALONE

OR WHEN WE HAVE SEX ALONE,
BECAUSE SOMEONE'S LEFT OUT.

OR WE'RE ALL THREE
TOGETHER,

SO CHRIS AND I
NEVER GET ALONE TIME.

IT SUCKS.

- WELL, I MEAN, I GUESS
THE BEST THING YOU CAN DO

IS JUST TALK TO THEM.

LIKE, TALK TO THEM
INDIVIDUALLY MAYBE.

I MEAN, YOU GUYS ARE MARRIED.
- I--MARRIED, I KNOW.

AND THAT'S THE THING
IS THAT I,

LIKE, HAVE A REALLY HARD TIME,
LIKE, HURTING HER FEELINGS.

I'M REALLY BAD AT CONFRONTING,
LIKE, THE HARD STUFF.

I GET OVERWHELMED WITH
THE EMOTIONAL CONVERSATIONS,

AND I WANT TO RUN AWAY.

YOU KNOW,
IT'S BEEN AWESOME WITH MEGAN.

I MEAN, LIKE, I LOVE HER,
BUT, LIKE,

IF I LOSE MY CONNECTION
WITH CHRIS,

THEN, LIKE,
WHAT ARE WE DOING HERE?

IN WEIRD WAYS,
I FELT MORE MARRIED TO HIM

BEFORE WE GOT MARRIED
THAN AFTER.

THIS IS MY HUSBAND, AND I WANT
THE CONNECTION THAT WE HAVE

THAT HAS BUILT THIS WHOLE LIFE
THAT WE HAVE TOGETHER.

I DON'T ALWAYS REALLY FEEL
LIKE HIS WIFE, YOU KNOW?

- I'M SORRY THIS IS ALL
HAPPENING, THIS IS REALLY HARD.

I WISH I HAD BETTER ADVICE
FOR YOU, I'M JUST--

- NO ONE EVER
HAS ANY ADVICE,

'CAUSE THEY HAVE NEVER
BEEN THROUGH IT.

NO ONE HAS ANY ADVICE.
THAT'S THE PROBLEM, YOU KNOW?

- MAYBE YOU SHOULD
GO BACK TO VANILLA, BORING...

I'VE NEVER REALLY
DONE THAT.

- ULTIMATELY, WE WANT
TO DERIVE THE OPT-IN,

- I'M MEETING JASON TODAY.

WE WORK TOGETHER,

AND HE'S RECENTLY
STARTED DATING KAMALA.

IT HASN'T BEEN A SECRET
THAT YOU

AND KAMALA HAVE BEEN, YOU KNOW,
GETTING A LOT MORE FRIENDLY,

TO REALLY SPEAK WITH HIM

AND BUILD
OUR COMMUNICATION A BIT.

YOU SAY
THAT YOU'RE NEW TO POLY.

I ACTUALLY DON'T KNOW
THAT MUCH ABOUT YOUR HISTORY.

DID YOU KNOW
WHAT POLYAMORY WAS?

- AND IT REALLY SHOWED ME
WHAT'S POSSIBLE.

- I HAD A GIRLFRIEND
WHO, YOU KNOW,

WAS INTERESTED
IN POLYAMORY

WHAT DO YOU THINK FOR YOU?
IS THAT--IS THAT A POSSIBILITY?

- I CAN'T RULE IT OUT
COMPLETELY, TO BE HONEST.

- MY CONCERN IS THAT PEOPLE
THAT ARE MOVING FROM MONOGAMY

SOMETIMES CAN'T MAKE
THAT TRANSITION.

SOMETIMES,
THEY FALL BACK TO MONOGAMY,

KAMALA'S--YOU KNOW,
SHE'S JUST BEEN SO EXCITED

WHEN SHE COMES BACK
FROM BEING WITH YOU,

AND YOU KNOW,
THAT MAKES ME REALLY HAPPY.

I REALLY WANT--
I WANT THE MOST FOR HER.

KAMALA HAS A TENDENCY
TO GO DEEP VERY QUICKLY.

IT'S A CONCERN
THAT HER HEART WILL BE BROKEN,

YOU KNOW, IF JASON
DECIDES THAT HE WANTS

TO GO BACK
TO THE MONOGAMOUS WAY.

I DON'T WANT HER
TO, YOU KNOW, GET HURT.

- YEAH, WATCH OUT
FOR THE WOMAN WITH THE HOSE.

- YEAH.
- DON'T PISS OFF THE WOMAN--

- OR THE PERSON
WITH THE RAKE, YEAH.

- OR THE WOMAN
WITH THE SCISSORS.

- IT'S REALLY FUN
TO HANG OUT WITH KAMALA

WHEN WE'RE NOT
PROCESSING.

GENERALLY, IT'S USUALLY
SOME SERIOUS MATTER, OR--

[laughs]

YOU KNOW, I FORGOT TO TELL HIM
BEFORE WE MADE LOVE

THAT YOU GUYS HAD OKAYED
THAT WE DIDN'T USE A CONDOM.

SO I SORT OF TOLD HIM
IN THE MIDDLE, AND HE WAS--

HE WAS REALLY HAPPY ABOUT IT,
OBVIOUSLY, YOU KNOW, HE'S...

- OH, LIKE A SURPRISE.
- WANTED THAT FOR THE LAST YEAR,

SO--
- YEAH.

- SO IT WENT REALLY WELL.

ACTUALLY, TAHL AND I
ARE MEETING HIM FOR COFFEE.

ARE SPENDING
TOO MUCH TIME TOGETHER,

- DO YOU LIKE TEACHING HIM
ABOUT POLY?

BOTHERS EVERYBODY ELSE
MORE THAN IT BOTHERS ME.

I'M NOT REALLY TRYING
TO TEACH HIM POLY.

I AM NOT TRYING TO CHANGE JESSE.
JESSE IS HOW HE IS.

OUR RELATIONSHIP
IS TOTALLY WORKING.

I DON'T NEED HIM TO BE
ANY DIFFERENT THAN HE IS.

SO WHERE'S MICHAEL?

- MICHAEL'S AT WORK.
HE'S WITH JASON.

- WITH JASON?
- YEAH.

- LOOK AT YOUR SMILE.
- [laughs]

IF I COULD WAVE A MAGIC WAND,
AND WE WERE AT A S--

- PROBABLY, JASON WOULD BE
THE ONE THAT I WOULD KISS.

- OH, REALLY?
- YEAH.

- YOU THINK JESSE
WOULD EVER LET YOU PLAY?

- I DON'T THINK SO.
- NO?

- NO, AND I'M NOT EVEN
GONNA ASK.

- NO, JUST LIKE--
LIKE, NEVER?

JESSE HAS A WHOLE BUNCH OF RULES
ON JENNIFER.

ANYTIME I SEE
REALLY STRICT REGULATIONS

ON PEOPLE EXPRESSING LOVE AND
CONNECTION WITH OTHER PEOPLE,

IT'S A PRETTY BIG TRIGGER
FOR ME.

IT'S REPRESSIVE
AND A LITTLE BIT ARCHAIC.

- HEY, GUYS.
- HEY, SWEETIE.

- HEY.

- JEN.
- HI, JASON.

- MMM.

SOMEONE TAKE A PICTURE.
- IT'S JUST A HUG.

[laughter]

- I JUST WANTED TO SAY HI.
- I'M GLAD.

- BYE, JASON.
- BYE, JASON, THANKS.

- SEE YOU, JASON.
- YEAH.

- [sighs]
- ALL RIGHT.

- I WANT TO HEAR
ABOUT YOUR MEETING.

- YEAH, WHAT HAP--HOW'D IT GO?
WHAT'D YOU GUYS TALK ABOUT?

- MEETING WAS REALLY GOOD.

WE TALKED ABOUT BASICALLY
WHAT YOU GUYS ARE UP TO.

- I WAS WORRIED
YOU WERE GONNA TALK ABOUT THAT.

- WHY, WHAT'S WRONG WITH THAT?
- HOW DID THAT GO?

- NO, IT'S GOOD, IT'S GOOD.

- IT WAS TOTALLY GOOD.
- I'M JUST NERVOUS.

I'M LIKE, "MY MEN
ARE TALKING ABOUT ME."

- I TOLD HIM
THAT HE'S VERY MUCH ENHANCING,

YOU KNOW,
OUR RELATIONSHIP,

BECAUSE YOU'REOMING BACK
SO JUICED UP AND EXCITED...

- I KNOW.
- WHICH IS TRUE.

- WAIT, HAVE YOU GUYS
MADE OUT YET?

- UM, YEAH, A LOT.
- HAVE YOU HAD SEX?

- NO.
- OH, YOU HAVEN'T HAD SEX.

- NO, WE'RE DEFINITELY NOT.

I FELL IN LOVE
WITH JASON,

AND WE'VE BEEN SPENDING TIME
TOGETHER AND CONNECTING,

AND IT'S ABOUT TIME
THAT WE OPEN OUR RELATIONSHIP

INTO A SEXUAL RELATIONSHIP.

I WANTED TO SEE IF YOU TOLD HIM
IT WAS OKAY FOR US TO BE SEXUAL,

AND YOU KNOW, IF THAT FEELS
COMFORTABLE FOR YOU.

HE IS NEW TO POLYAMORY.
YOU KNOW, HE WAS A MONOGAMIST.

- RIGHT.
- YOU KNOW, SERIAL MONOGAMIST.

UM--
- HEY, YOU GUYS, THIS--

- YOU GUYS GOTTA GO?
- YEAH.

I SORT OF STARTED TO FEEL
THAT THIS MIGHT

TURN INTO
A PROCESSING CONVERSATION.

AND SO I'M OUTTA HERE.
[laughs]

- GOOD, BREATHE.
NICE AND EASY.

THIS PART OF THE DAY
IS MY FAVORITE PART OF THE JOB.

ONE-ON-ONE
WITH A TALENTED FIGHTER,

HELPING HIM HONE HIS SKILLS.

- [grunts]
- JUMP.

- BABE,
I BROUGHT OUR SHAKES.

- [grunts]
- THANK YOU.

- I WORK FROM HOME, BUT I HAVE
A VERY FLEXIBLE SCHEDULE.

- AND SOMETIMES,
I HELP CHRIS AT THE GYM.

I KINDA DO ALL THE THINGS
THAT HE PREFERS NOT TO DO.

[laughs]

- [sighs]
- [laughs]

- THANK YOU.
- YOU'RE WELCOME.

- I APPRECIATE IT.
- MUCH DESERVED.

I HAVEN'T HEARD
FROM LEIGH ANN.

I TEXTED HER, AND SHE HASN'T
GOTTEN BACK TO ME, SO...

- YEAH, I MEAN, IT SOUNDED
WHEN SHE LEFT THIS MORNING

LIKE SHE WAS GONNA BE LATE.

I DON'T KNOW
IF WE SHOULD JUST EAT,

- WHAT WAS UP WITH THAT
THIS MORNING?

- IT'S SO DIFFICULT,
BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY, I UNDERSTAND.

LIKE, CAREER AND TRAVEL

THERE PROBABLY IS SOME TRUTH
TO THE FACT

THAT I'VE BEEN PAYING YOU
A LOT OF ATTENTION.

LIKE WE'RE DOING
OUR OWN THING.

BEFORE, SHE WOULD
MAKE AN EFFORT

TO MAKE SURE
SHE WAS HOME AT DINNER.

- BECAUSE I'M THERE.

- MAYBE I REALLY NEED
TO, LIKE,

I'M EXPERIENCING
A POLYAMOROUS RELATIONSHIP

WHERE WE'RE MARRIED
AND DATING.

IT'S DIFFICULT.

IT TAKES WORK.

I DON'T THINK I'VE FIGURED OUT
HOW TO DO EITHER PERFECTLY YET.

[rock music]

- YOU KNOW, I'M ONLY INTERESTED
IN A RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM

IT'S SO IMPORTANT
FOR ME

THAT MICHAEL GIVES ME
THE BIG GREEN LIGHT.

AND, YOU KNOW, THAT CAN BE
A LITTLE THREATENING.

BUT, YOU KNOW, WE'VE BEEN
TOGETHER FOR 11 YEARS,

AND I GET HE'S NEW,
AND THAT'S EXCITING.

YOU KNOW?
- YEAH, I MEAN, IT'S VERY NEW,

AND I DON'T KNOW
WHERE IT'S GOING, BUT I JUST--

I WANT IT
TO MAKE US STRONGER.

- YEAH.
- YOU KNOW?

YOU KNOW, DO WHAT WORKS
FOR MY HUSBAND.

RIGHT NOW, WHAT I WANT IS,
I ONLY WANT TO,

YOU KNOW, MAKE LOVE WITH HIM
IF IT'S REALLY A GREEN LIGHT

FOR YOU...
- MM-HMM.

- JUST IN THE BEGINNING,
I'D LIKE YOU

TO JUST LET ME KNOW
BEFORE YOU HAVE SEX

AND INVITE ME,
AND I UNDERSTAND

IF HE'S NOT READY
TO BE IN A THREESOME.

LET'S CROSS THAT BRIDGE
WHEN WE GET THERE.

- I AM NOT BISEXUAL OR GAY,
BUT I LIKE GROUP SEX.

THERE'S GONNA BE
A LOT MORE INCLUSION,

WHERE I CAN BE INVOLVED,

AND I WON'T FEEL
AS JEALOUS.

NOW THAT MICHAEL'S
GIVEN ME PERMISSION

TO HAVE SEX WITH JASON,
IT'S VERY AROUSING.

MMM.

[both moaning]

- OH, GOD.
- AH! [laughs]

- I'VE STOPPED WORRYING
ABOUT MY NEIGHBORS.

WE LIVE IN A NEIGHBORHOOD
THAT'S QUITE NOISY,

AND THERE'S A LOT
OF PARTYING.

AND WE'RE PROBABLY
THE QUIETEST OF THE NEIGHBORS.

- I LOVE YOU SO MUCH.

[laughs]
- MMM.

- OH, MY.
- MMM.

- WE NEED TO TAKE IT EASY
ON HIM, THOUGH, TAHL.

- I WILL.
- HE'S SUPER SENSITIVE,

- YOU KNOW, ABOUT THIS MEETING,
'CAUSE I THINK HE THINKS

SO BE GENTLE.

- SO WE'RE GOING TO THIS MEETING
WITH JESSE,

AND WE HAVE TO FIGURE OUT
TIME MANAGEMENT.

I WANT TO SIT DOWN WITH HIM.

I WANT TO GET A LITTLE
MORE CLEAR WITH WHAT HIS RULES

EXACTLY ARE WITH JEN
BECAUSE THAT AFFECTS ME.

- HI, BABY.
MMM.

- I WANT EVERYBODY TO GET ALONG
AND BE HAPPY,

AND I REALLY LIKE
THE WAY THINGS ARE.

I DON'T PARTICULARLY
WANT THEM TO CHANGE.

- SO...

THE WHOLE DYNAMICS
HAVE KIND OF SHIFTED

AND PRETTY MUCH
ALL THE RULES AND STUFF

I'M HEARING SECONDHAND
THROUGH JEN.

AND SO I JUST KIND OF WANTED
TO SIT DOWN AND REALLY HEAR--

- YEAH. YEAH.

JUST KIND OF UNDERSTAND
WHERE I'M COMING FROM.

- RIGHT.
- YEAH.

AND I'M NOT USED TO THAT--

- MM-HMM.
- SO I'VE ASKED HER NOT TO,

- OKAY.
- IT'S A COMPETITIVE THING

WITH ME WITH MEN,
AND, LIKE,

SO, LIKE, I DON'T MIND
IF SHE KISSES WOMEN.

IT'S HARD A LITTLE BIT,
BECAUSE IT KINDA--

SOMETIMES MAKES ME FEEL
LIKE I HAVE TO RECIPROCATE THAT,

AND THAT'S TOTALLY
UNCOMFORTABLE FOR ME.

- BY "RECIPROCATE," YOU MEAN
IF I GET A GIRL TO KISS YOU,

THEN I GET TO KISS A GUY, YEAH.
- THEN I SHOULD MAKE YOU--

I SHOULD MAKE A GUY KISS YOU,
OR I SHOULD LET A GUY KISS YOU,

AND, LIKE,
I DON'T WANT TO.

- IN OUR EXPERIENCE,
IT'S ALWAYS MORE DIFFICULT

THEY KIND OF WANT THE LOVER
ALL TO THEMSELF,

JEALOUSY IS NORMAL, I MEAN,
EVEN POLY PEOPLE HAVE JEALOUSY,

BUT IS IT SOMETHING, LIKE,
YOU ACTUALLY WANT TO GET OVER?

IS IT SOMETHING THAT YOU'RE
JUST LIKE, "THIS IS HOW I AM,

AND IT'S NOT CHANGING,"
OR--

- YOU KNOW, UM...

A LOT OF IT
IS REALLY STILL

JUST KIND OF GETTING
COMFORTABLE WITH IT.

"OH, IN ONE YEAR,
I'M GONNA BE FINE,"

AND, LIKE, I JUST DON'T--
I CAN'T--I DON'T SEE--

- YEAH.
- I DON'T THINK THAT WAY.

I CAN'T--I DON'T--
I CAN'T SEE THAT.

THE PART THAT'S BEEN
REALLY HARD FOR ME IN THE PAST

ABOUT NOT WANTING
TO GO TO SLUMBER PARTIES

OR SEX PARTIES
IS THAT I'M NOT USED TO THAT

SORT OF MULTI-PERSON,
INTIMATE CONNECTION.

I'M KIND OF UNCOMFORTABLE
WITH THOSE THINGS,

AND FOR ME, LIKE, GETTING
TO KNOW EVERYBODY IN THE POD

AND ALL HER DIFFERENT FRIENDS
NATURALLY IS WHERE,

YOU KNOW, THAT COMFORT,
I THINK, WILL COME.

- YOU KNOW,
JESSE'S NEW TO THIS WORLD.

I MEAN, HE'S TALKING
TO HIS GIRLFRIEND'S HUSBAND,

FOR GOD'S SAKE.

I'M TRYING TO THROW HIM
INTO THIS POLY WORLD,

AND IT'S JUST--
HE'S JUST NOT THERE YET.

BUT HE IS TAKING THOSE STEPS.
I DO SEE IT.

YOU KNOW, I JUST HOPE THAT
HE KEEPS ON TAKING THOSE STEPS.

I HAVE A LITTLE MORE TIME
TO MYSELF,

AND I'M NOTICING
JENNIFER'S NOT AROUND AS MUCH.

- AW.
- YEAH, SO I JUST FEEL

LIKE I'M KINDA STARTING
TO MISS HER, BUT--

- YEAH, OF COURSE,
LIKE, I WANT TO BE

TOTALLY CONGRUENT WITH YOU,
I WANT EVERYTHING TO BE OKAY.

I JUST--I'M SCARED THAT
YOU'RE GONNA TAKE THIS AWAY.

I WOULD RATHER HAVE JEN
ONDAY A WEEK

THAN NO DAYS A WEEK.
- AW.

- WELL, I'M NOT--
- THAT'S REALLY SWEET.

- LET'S SCHEDULE.
- HOW ABOUT IF--

- LET'S PULL OUT OUR SCHEDULES.
- WHAT I'M SAYING IS, LIKE,

MAYBE I COULD DO THREE NIGHTS
AND THREE NIGHTS,

AND THEN THE LAST NIGHT,
WE COULD ALL

JUST HANG OUT TOGETHER
WITH THE WHOLE POD.

- YEAH.
- I'D LOVE THAT, I'D LOVE THAT.

- YEAH, AND THAT'S
TOTALLY BALANCED.

- THAT SOUNDS GOOD TO ME.

- I'M REALLY PLEASED
WITH THIS MEETING.

IT ENDED ON A GOOD NOTE.

EVERYBODY WAS LAUGHING
AND SMILING.

I COULDN'T ASK FOR MORE.

- I AM, OVERALL,
HAPPY WITH THE SITUATION.

- [laughs]
- YEAH, SHE'S ALL YOURS.

- SOMETIMES--
- I DON'T GET YOU.

SEEM LIKE A GREAT GUY.
- I LOVE MY WIFE TOO.

I LOVE YOUR GIRLFRIEND, JESSE.

[laughter]
- AWESOME.

ME TOO.

[laughter]

- WHEN WE LEAVE THE GYM,
I ASK MEGAN

TO DRIVE ME
BY THE LOCAL FLOWER SHOP.

IT'S A PLACE I VISIT
REGULARLY.

I BOUGHT FLOWERS
FOR LEIGH ANN

BECAUSE SHE NEEDS
SOME SPECIAL ATTENTION.

- HELLO.
- HI, BABY.

- HOW ARE YOU?

- HOW ARE YOU?
- GOOD.

- THAT WHOLE SCENARIO
IN THE MORNING JUST THREW ME.

- HOW ARE YOU?
- GOOD.

TIRED, IT'S BEEN A LONG DAY.
- YEAH?

- WORKING HARD...
- MM-HMM.

- OR HARDLY WORKING?
- YEAH, RIGHT.

WORKING HARD.
- [chuckles]

WHICH IS KIND OF RARE.
[laughs]

- WHY DON'T YOU TAKE YOUR DRINK
AND HEAD INTO THE BEDROOM,

AND I HAVE
A LITTLE SURPRISE FOR YOU.

- A SURPRISE?
- I DO.

- MM.

AW.

AW, HONEY.

I WAS, YOU KNOW,
REALLY TOUCHED.

I OPENED THE CARD,
AND IT JUST SAID

AND BE CLOSE TO ME
AND THAT HE WAS MY HUSBAND,

AND IT WAS BEAUTIFUL
AND TOUCHING.

OH, THANK YOU.
[sniffles]

- I FELT BADLY THIS MORNING.

I'M SORRY.
- [sighs]

- YOU KNOW I'M SO PROUD
OF HOW HARD YOU WORK.

I DON'T WANT TO MAKE YOU
FEEL GUILTY ABOUT IT.

- AND I--OF COURSE,
I WANT TO STAY WITH YOU GUYS.

IT'S HARD FOR ME
GET UP AND LEAVE

AND LEAVE YOU GUYS IN BED.
YOU KNOW?

- I DO.
- IT'S REALLY HARD FOR ME.

- I UNDERSTAND THAT,
YOU KNOW,

SOMETIMES,
YOU'RE FEELING LEFT OUT.

- [whispering]
THANK YOU.

CHRIS IS MAKING A REALLY BIG
GESTURE AND A BIG EFFORT

TO INCLUDE ME AND MAKE ME FEEL
SPECIAL AND LOVED,

AND YOU KNOW,
IT REALLY WORKED.

LITTLE THINGS LIKE THAT
MAKE THE HUGEST DIFFERENCE.

- I LOVE YOU SO MUCH, BABY.
- I LOVE YOU TOO.

- HEY.
- DID I INTERRUPT SOMETHING?

WE WERE HAVING
THIS MOMENT TO BOND,

AND, YOU KNOW,
MEGAN COMES IN.

THE FEELING THAT I GET OFF HER

IS THAT SHE FEELS LEFT OUT AND
THAT SOMEHOW TAKES AWAY FROM HER

THAT WE'RE HAVING
A PRIVATE MOMENT.

- WHAT ARE YOU GUYS UP TO?

- I WAS JUST BEING EMOTIONAL.
[laughs]

SO OF COURSE,
WE'RE INCLUDING HER.

- WHY DON'T YOU GET
YOUR GLASS OF WINE,

AND--
- SURE, I'LL--

- MAYBE WE CAN HAVE
SOME US TIME.

- I WILL GO GET MY DRINK.
I'LL BE RIGHT BACK.

- ALL RIGHT, HONEY.

- EVEN THOUGH I WISH
I WAS GETTING FLOWERS,

I THINK IT'S AMAZING
THAT HE WANTS

TO BRING HER
SOMETHING SPECIAL,

BUT MAYBE I FEEL
A LITTLE ENVIOUS ABOUT IT.

[glasses clinking]

- [giggles]

I DEFINITELY SIT AND WATCH
THE BEAUTIFUL MOMENTS WITH THEM,

PRACTICING COMPERSION.

IT'S ONE OF THE REASONS
THAT I'M REALLY INTO POLY,

BECAUSE I REALLY ENJOY WATCHING
TWO OTHER PEOPLE CONNECT.

[all moaning]

- MMM.
- OH, WHERE ARE YOU GOING?

OH, ANOTHER DRINK?
- JUST GETTING A LITTLE DRINK.

[both breathing heavily]

[both moaning]

[grunts]

- YEAH.
- WHERE ARE YOU?

- I JUST CAME
TO FINISH MY WINE.

- I JUST WANTED
TO GET SOME WINE.

VERY PUSHED OFF THE BED
BY THEIR ENERGY.

I THOUGHT
WHAT THEY WERE HAVING

AND I WANTED THEM
TO HAVE THAT,

AND I DIDN'T WANT
TO DISRUPT THAT.

- [sighs]

YOU JUST BAILED
ON THE WHOLE THING.

- WELL, I MEAN, I WASN'T--
- YEAH, LIKE,

WE WERE HAVING A MOMENT,
AND THEN, YOU LEFT.

LIKE, IT AFFECTED
MY ABILITY TO HAVE A GOOD TIME.

- YEAH, YOU WERE ALL--
- WELL, YOU GUYS WERE

ENJOYING YOURSELVES.

I WAS GIVING YOU GUYS A MOMENT,
LIKE, IT WAS

A LOT OF ENERGY IN THE BED...
- YEAH, BUT WHY'D YOU--

- AND YOU PULLED HER
TO THAT SIDE,

- MEGAN CLAIMS
THAT EVERYTHING WAS FINE,

BUT I THINK THAT THERE IS
A LITTLE MORE TO IT THAN THAT.

THERE ARE TIMES

IS SOMEWHAT THREATENING.

PULLING YOURSELF OUT OF IT
LIKE THAT REALLY KILLED

OUR ABILITY
TO ENJOY OURSELVES.

- WELL, YOU GUYS PULLED
YOURSELVES ON THAT END,

AND IT WASN'T TO HURT
YOUR GUYS' FEELINGS,

AND I'M SORRY THAT IT DID,
BUT THAT WASN'T MY INTENTION.

I LOVE WATCHING YOU GUYS
BE IN LOVE WITH EACH OTHER.

IT'S A BEAUTIFUL THING TO ME,
AND TO FEEL LIKE

IT BOTHERS YOU TO WATCH US
IN LOVE, AND YOU CAN'T DO IT,

THAT'S A PROBLEM.

I FEEL LIKE HAVING A POWERFUL,
CONNECTED MOMENT WITH CHRIS

IS A DIRECT ASSAULT
ON HER.

IT SEEMS LIKE
IT MAKES HER INSECURE,

AND IN A WAY, MAKES IT SEEM
WRONG TO LOVE MY HUSBAND,

AND I JUST--I JUST DON'T THINK
THAT THAT'S RIGHT.

WE'RE JUST TRYING TO SAY,
LIKE, WE HAD--

WE HAD ENERGY,
WE HAD CONNECTION.

- WHAT DID YOU WANT ME TO DO?
DID YOU WANT ME TO, LIKE,

SHOVE MYSELF
IN BETWEEN YOU GUYS?

I DIDN'T WANT
TO DISRUPT THAT.

THAT'S THE THING,
YOU GUYS WERE HAVING A MOMENT.

- YEAH, BUT YOU DID DISRUPT IT
BY LEAVING WITH ANGER.

- IT'S THE SAME THING.
- WELL, OKAY, SO LET'S

HAVE RULES THAT "I'M NOT ALLOWED
TO LEAVE" THE BEDROOM.

- I DON'T THINK
ANYBODY NEEDS RULES

ABOUT WHAT YOU CAN
AND CAN'T DO.

WE WANT YOU TO STAY THERE
AND APPRECIATE THAT

AND BE PART OF THE EXPERIENCE.
- SO MAKE ME A PART OF IT.

- WELL, YOU DON'T NEED TO BE
PHYSICALLY A PART OF IT

FOR EVERY SINGLE SECOND.

OKAY,
BUT WAIT A SECOND,

- I DON'T KNOW,
I'M JUST LIKE--

- EVERYBODY HAS THEIR OWN
OPINION AND THEIR OWN VIEWPOINT.

I RESPECT--
- I'M GOING TO BED.

- I RESPECT
THAT YOU GUYS HAVE THAT.

IT'S THE WAY EVERYBODY
PERCEIVES THINGS, AND--

- RIGHT, SO I GUESS--

WAS TO MULTIPLY THE LOVE,
NOT DIVIDE IT.

- I GET DEFENSIVE BECAUSE
THEY'RE JUST POKING AT ME.

THEY JUST POKE AT ME,
LIKE, "ARE YOU SURE?

AND I'M JUST LIKE,
"SHUT THE FUCK UP.

- THIS IS THE FIRST TIME
THAT I'M REALLY SEEING

THIS TYPE OF DISCORD.

IF WE DON'T FIND A WAY
TO RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM QUICKLY,
