[Shrink]
Well, so he just left?..


[Patient]
See there comes a point in everyone's life 
Where they just start seeing things differently 
Or you know they're put in a situation where they have to
I guess it was just his night


[Shrink]
If you don't mind, whats his name?


[Patient]
His name is Matt, and I think his fathers name is Matt too, but I don't know


[Shrink]
Okay, so what happened next, where did he go from there?


[Patient]
Well he stood in his girlfriend's dorm room for a little while
He couldn't stay there long
I think her father actually felt bad for him
So he offered him a job as a file clerk at his law firm
Nothing special, just sorting papers
And her dad made him a deal he said, if you take this job seriously
And if you start going to school and you're serious about my daughter
I'll help you guys out with an apartment
So he took it, and maybe Matt really didn't want that
Maybe he didn't really want to go to school or work at a place like that
But he also wanted to prove to his father that he was better off without him
That he wasn't a waste
And he also knew that making that deal with her dad would make his dad so much more mad
Because he hated her father
He always said how lazy he was, and he steals peoples money 
And he doesn't have a real job, and he doesn't know what it feels like to work
I guess that's the motivation he needed to straighten out his life
But I don't think they ever talked again anyway
So I don't think it really mattered
