Transcript from a Session Between Dr. Jay and Rick Vigorous

From the marginalized desk of Rick Vigorous:

----------
JAY: So you feel that your role in all of this has become...
RICK: Marginalized.
JAY: Like your penis.
RICK: What?
JAY: Your penis, Rick, would you say that you feel your role in Lenore's life has become just as marginalized as your penis is in her vagina?
RICK: Huh? What?
JAY: I think I've made myself quite clear.
RICK: ... are you asking if I feel like my figurative role in Lenore's life has become just as marginal as my unfailingly flaccid penis is in a literal, spatial relationship to her comparatively large vagina?
JAY: You think Lenore has a large vagina?
RICK: I was asking if that's what you were asking.
JAY: Interesting... a new development... I sense a breakthrough... a perfectly appropriate vaginal metaph-
RICK: Just help me get her back.
JAY: Did you bring the uh... -
RICK: Yes. Here's the cash.
JAY: Ah. Very good. Well, your whole problem is your impotence.
RICK: ... yes... and...
JAY: You need to be less impotent.
RICK: I'm beginning to feel violent impulses toward you.
JAY: That's excellent. That's a step in the right direction. Can you feel the virility? Rex, on the other hand, is becoming more like you - he decisively does not go on four legs at morning, two legs at noon, and three in the evening...
RICK: ...
JAY: This is your opportunity to supplant him.
RICK: How do you know that?
JAY: Because I've seen him recently...
RICK: What? What did he say?
JAY: Did you bring the uh... -
RICK: I just gave you all the cash I had on me.
JAY: I see, well, in that case...
RICK: Is this some kind of game to you? You're seeing me, Lenore, and Rex?
JAY: I am a veritable gatekeeper, aren't I? Almost Sphinx-like in my secret erudition...
RICK: I am going to punch you in the face.
JAY: Yes, more of that - a breakthr - ouch! Jesus Christ!
RICK: I told you ahead of time... I can't hear you say "breakthrough" again without getting violent.
JAY: Do you think if I said it enough you might actually get an erection?
RICK: ...
