Therapy-go-round

Following a heart-wrenching break-up, Rook goes to a local therapist for some guidance on how best to come to terms with the failed relationship. Little does Rook know, this particular self-help expert has never helped anyone but themselves. Their style of therapy, exacerbated by the chaotic energy of an assistant that probably should have been a drama major, is definitely going to make things worse before they get better.

This hilarious three-hander is a whirlwind of misguided advice, sharp one-liners, and very bad roleplay.
