but you said you wanted to see me. I appreciate your commitment to this job, I really do. But I don't see how you'll plug through these last few weeks, so I want to offer you some time off.

Oh, one more thing. Look, I'm so sorry she was taken away, Elliot. But don't let her death close you off entirely. Find someone you could be your honest self with, okay?

I remember when I was a kid, I got into web design by ripping off sites I liked. All you had to do was view source on your browser, and there it was, the code.

You could copy-paste it, modify it a little, put your name on it, and like that, it was your site.

View source. What if we had that for people? What people really want to see.

Find someone to be your honest self with. Really good advice. Thanks.

This is all I have left of her. I will miss her. I need to wipe again.

Flipper, is she microchipped? Okay, very good. Housekeeping done. Now onto the real business. Has your dog ever eaten trash before?

No, I mean, not that I remember. Well, lucky for your bank account, the piece is small enough to pass on its own.

Unfortunately, though, it's large enough to send her puking all over your apartment. So I would crate her for a few days and monitor her.

She won't know what you're doing is good for her. Elliot, I wasn't expecting you. I'm here for my appointment.

Well, you can slip in before my first patient. You taught me I should tell you the truth. Yes, everything I say will still be protected and confidential.

I've been lying. Me, I'll take my pills, but you don't either. Your refill frequency for Ativan doesn't match your prescription divided by the dosage.

This morning you bought a tall hazelnut latte, paid for it on your Evil Corp card, and by text you justified the indulgence to your sister because Evil Corp gives you double rewards, but those points only accumulate on travel expenses.

On paper, your Thursday 2:00 o'clock Marilyn O'Brien, Mr. Doppelganger, I think you're encouraging her to leave her husband because you're tired of being dumped.

You like porn, especially anal. Whether you like yourself, I don't know. That's not relevant to me.

You've told your best friend, Jennifer, that you wish your mom would die sometimes. Watch you on your webcam, cry sometimes just like me because you're lonely.

I don't just hack you, Krista. I hack everyone, my friends, coworkers, but I've helped a lot of people.

I want a way out of loneliness, just like you. Is that what you wanted to hear?

Loneliness is a significant human struggle, affecting individuals like Krista and the speaker, who admits to hacking others in an attempt to connect or find a way out of their own isolation.

People often present a curated version of themselves, but a truly honest connection requires 'viewing the source' and finding someone with whom you can be your authentic self.

The speaker engages in extensive surveillance and hacking of friends and acquaintances, including Krista, believing that by exposing their truths, he is helping them, despite the ethical implications.
