Plot

A group of patients with OCD, each thinking they have an appointment for a private session with a famous psychologist, arrive to find others have appointments at the same time and that the doctor is delayed. While waiting for the doctor to arrive they get to know each other and, finally, decide to do their own group therapy session.

The session is successful insofar as all the patients feel they have briefly overcome their compulsions and can build on that success. They agree to meet once a week on their own to continue working together. At the end it is revealed that one of the "patients" is actually the doctor. As the credits roll we see each of the patients making progress as they live their lives.

gollark: Just having an adapter block doesn't allow it to magically do anything. People need to explicitly program in mod integration.
gollark: With Plethora, an addon, yes.
gollark: That doesn't seem particularly hacky. The whole pattern of "start timers for timeouts/running stuff at intervals, listen for other events at the same time" is rather common in CC code.
gollark: There are things which convert the event thing into callbacks, and you can run multiple things at once using `parallel`, but otherwise no.
gollark: When you do `os.pullEvent`/`coroutine.yield`, your code pauses until it receives an event.
