Three patients are all on a bunk bed with three chairs they are laying on. There is a therapist taking notes for each patient.
When in therapy, there is only one therapist and one patient. And other people do not lay in bunk beds during therapy.
Why are there three people receiving therapy at the same time?
And how do you feel about how she feels about how he feels?

Couples therapy is already complex -- pairs of people may have feelings about their partner's feelings. Here, the joke is that if three people were getting therapy together, things would get even more complicated and meta, i.e., person 1 could feel strongly about person 2's feelings about person 3 (and any permutation of such). It's funny to think that these three would be so closely intertwined such that this meta-therapy could be a helpful exercise.
