[Justin and Rebecca walk along the stream together]
Justin Cobb: It's hot today.
Rebecca: Yeah.
Justin Cobb: I think I'm gonna take my shirt off.
Rebecca: Yeah? Go ahead.
Justin Cobb: You should, too.
Rebecca: What are you trying, Justin?
Justin Cobb: No, really. I mean, we're so uptight in our clothes. It's just like wearing a bathing suit. At the beach.
Rebecca: No. My stomach will get sunburned, and my mom will get mad.
Justin Cobb: Your mom looks at you naked?
Rebecca: Well, yeah, I mean, don't your parents?
Justin Cobb: Audrey? Mike? No.
Rebecca: Why do you call your parents by their first name?
Justin Cobb: Mike says when I call him Dad, he feels old. And I sound like a child or something. And when I call Audrey, Mom, she seems old to him?
Rebecca: Oh.
Justin Cobb: So are you gonna take your shirt off?
Rebecca: You?
Justin Cobb: Yeah.
[Justin and Rebecca turn away from each other and take their shirts off before turning back around to face each other]

[Justin calls Dr. Perry asking him to take back the hypnosis he still feels under]
Justin Cobb: Perry. It worked.
Dr. Perry Lyman: That's wonderful.
Justin Cobb: No, I - I didn't think it would be like this. Can you put it back? or something?
Dr. Perry Lyman: Your subconscious has taken its course.
Justin Cobb: Please, I really feel crazy.
Dr. Perry Lyman: Stick with it, Justin. Call on your power animal for help.
[Justin looks at the phone confused and hangs up]
