Paul visits Gina, his former supervisor, because he feels that he is losing patience with his patients. They haven't seen each other in eight years–since Paul severed their relationship because he felt that she was interfering with rather than guiding his practice. In that time, Gina's husband died, she turned 60, and she retired, intending to spend her time writing. During their session, Paul's relationships with his patients, wife, and three children are discussed.
