In this particular instance, when I say “therapy session,” I do actually mean “advice from an entire classroom and all of Sam’s coworkers,” but I think the intent is the same. When Sam is sure that Emma’s going to leave him, he gets help from all of his students and the faculty at his school, regaling them all with the story of his love for Emma. If this entire scene isn’t me and my group chat talking about someone I’ve been on two dates with, I don’t know what is. Single people everywhere know this vibe well.
