I'm not sure
what to tell you, Andrew.

Unfortunately,
there is no treatment for

your parasomnia.

It just won't stop.

Haven't had a decent
nice sleep for months.

Look, if the
nightmares persist,

we'll bring you back in.

Otherwise, let's just
take it easy today, huh?

These tests leave
you feeling dizzy,

fatigued.

You didn't drive,
did you?

No.

Yeah.

Good.

[CAR HONKING]

Call a cab?

Say, bro, you're looking
pretty tired.

Now, if you wanna
take a nap, that's fine.

I wish I could.

I'm always having
trouble sleeping lately.

Nightmares.

Doctor said he can't
do anything about it.

You know, I know a guy
with a pillow shop

right around the corner.

If you want,
I can take you there.

Oh, no.

It's...
that's okay.

I have to...

I have to meet my wife
for dinner tonight.

Okay.

[PHONE RINGING]

My wife.

Hey, babe.

Ah, I just
come out of there.

Not good.

Again?

Baby, it's the third
night in a row.

I...

okay.

Okay.
All right.

I understand.
I love you too.

Looks like I'm not
in so much of a rush.

Tell you what, you give
the man this card here

and he'll
take care of you.

[CHIME CLANGS]

Uh-uh.

Need some help, sir?

Uh, yeah.

Um, I'm gonna
buy pillow.

Of course.

I need to fit you
for your pillow.

Fit me?

Yes.

Can you just use a tape
measure or something?

Oh, no.

I've been doing
this a very long time.

Yes.

Uh, follow me.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

So, what's ailing you?

Constant nightmares.

I can't get any sleep.

Hmm.

I see.

[HUMMING].

How long have
you been married?

Married?

I see the wedding
ring on your finger.

[HUMMING]
Oh, yeah.

Uh, seven years,
going on eight.

Um-hum.
Um-hum.

Now, seven-year itch.

What does that have
to do with anything?

How does that feel?

Holy sh*t.

[SMIRKING].

Fitted.

It sure is.

Tonight you will sleep.

Hmm.

[CHIME CLANGS]

Ah, it's better.

Ah, it is so much,
so much better.

[CHIME CLANGS]

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[CHIME CLANGING]

Ah, ah, thanks.

I love your blue pajamas.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Hmm.

Morning, love.

Had to go in extra early.

Yeah, big surprise, no.

I love you too, babe.

[CLOCK TICKING]

Babe, I'm home.

Andrew?

[SNORING]

[MUSIC PLAYING]

I'm taking you home
if you let me.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Hey, baby.

What's wrong?

Hmm, nothing.

Just had a bad dream.

See, you're finally
getting some sleep, though.

Yes.

Yes, yes, yes!

I have to tell
you about this pillow,

it, it...
Hello?

Yeah.

Okay.

Sure.

I'm on my way.

Sorry, babe.

Looks like I got
to head into work.

Things are already crazy.

Hmm, what's new?

Babe?

I just miss you.

Aw.

Baby?

How about this?

I'll come home early
and we can get things started.

Hmm.
I'm with that.

[GIGGLES]
Hmm, I'm gonna finish it.

And I'm gonna
start again.

Hmm, okay,
I got to go.

Bye.

[HUMMING]

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Oh, that looks good.

Oh, man, that's...

I'm gonna get it.
[PHONE RINGING]

Hey, babe.

Oh.

Okay.

But, uh...

no, uh, no worries.

No worries.

[SNORING]

[CHIME CLANGS]

[SUSPENSE MUSIC PLAYING]

Andrew.

Andrew.

Andrew...

Andrew!

Andrew!

[GASPING]

Bad dream?
Yeah.

[LAUGHS]

I don't know.
Ooh.

[BIRDS CHIRPING]

[CHIME CLANGING]

Need some help, sir?

Uh, yeah.

I'm having
some trouble sleeping.

Oh.

I have just
the right thing for you.

Hmm.
