Anthony

A fifty-year old therapist (DR. Baurer) sits at her desk , frowning as she takes notes 

A you man (Anthony Peterson) sits in chair in of front her looking impatient 

the therapits continues to write her notes 

Dr Baurer : "Anthony , we've been at this for months" 

Anthony : "i know"

Dr Baurer : " and you haven't made an ounce of progress" 

Anthony : "I know"

Anthony takes out a cigarette 

Dr Baurer (not looking up ) : "there's no smoking in my offfice"

Anthony sneers at her then puts the cigarette away , Dr Baureur finishes her notes and looks up at him shaking her head 

Anthony : "What do you want me to say ? What do you wan to hear? That i'm supossed to feel remorse because i act the way i do? But the truth is i don't" 

Dr Baurer shakes her head and takes her notes again 

Anthony continues to speak

Anthony : "Look, I'm not like all the other kids in high school. I don't care about book

reports and extra-credit. Teachers are idiots anyway. The only challenge out there for me is women. You see a girl you like. You pursue them. You conquer. You move on. It's exciting."

Dr Baurer : "But you said you have the worst Reputation"

Anthony : "I do" 

Dr Baurer : Don't you want to chnage that?" 

Anthony : "Let me tell you something, doctor, chicks love a guy with a bad rap , they say they don't, but they don't mean it. They all think that they're the ones that are going to "save me the trick is to let them think it's true."

Dr Baurer : "I think that's all the time we have for today."

Anthony : "Same time next week?"

Dr Baurer : "No. This is going to be our last session."

Anthony : "But why ? I like spending time with you. You know, you're quite attractive for a woman your age. You have the most attractive LEGS"

Dr Baurer : "This isn't a joke. Your parents spend a lot of money to send you here. I'm trying to help you."

Anthony : "Don't be insecure, Doc. You're a big help."

Anthony picks up a book of Freud - Anthony continued 

Anthony : "He was a coke addict, you know."

Dr Baurer : "You think you can come in here with that cute little smirk on your face and try and flirt with me. It doesn't work , Anthony , and how's the Playbook thing going , you know the book you've talked about" 

Anthony : " oh come on Dr , it works a little , it's going well i am the winner as always" 

Dr Baurer : "No it doesn't. I see right through you."

Anthony : "You do?"

Dr Baurer : "I hope for your sake you grow out of this immature phase. It's going to get you into trouble."

Anthony : "Well, you don't have to get nasty about it."

Dr Baurer :" well , let's try it again and focus"

Anthony : " l can't feel sorry for myself because l'm a poor little rich boy"

Dr Baurer : "stop being so hard on yourself"
