Scene 1:  Alex Flashback
Alex argues with his girlfriend Stef in their bedroom.  She tells him they need a brief break to think things through, about their relationship, and the recent distance between them.  Alex wants to talk things out, in a hopeful attempt to convince Stef to change her mind.  He leans toward her to kiss her and lower her racing temper.  Stef pulls back, and Alex becomes further upset, and holds her close.  As the screaming continues, he struggles to embraces her tighter, so she will stay.  
 
Scene 3: Getting friend’s advice
Alex meets up with his best friend Marty in a gym.  Alex tells Marty about what happened with him and the therapist. Marty suggests that he should try dating other women to get Stef out of his mind.
 
Scene 4:  Dating 4 Women in Restaurant
We see Alex at a date with a badgering woman.  She shows no interest in Alex, rather only likes to speak about herself.  This frustrates Alex, and his eyes are gleaming with weariness.  We then see Alex's second date, a weak woman, with very little confidence, and lacks an ability to keep Alex engaged in any conversation.  The third date, in addition to her unpleasant appearance, has bad manners, and a frequent roaring and obnoxious laugh.  Finally, Alex is rescued by a more entertaining women, offering sympathy in his situation; she says she had an experience similar to his own.  The fourth date recommends a revenge agency, in which she has enlisted to help herself.
