Answer: 20

MacMannus is expressing his thanks to Catcher for deciding to do the cover story on Novak's book. Catcher mentions that they have been friends a long time, because he knew Peter when he only had 12 diagnosed neurosies. He now has twenty.

This entire scene was hilarious! They had to film for like eight hours to get them both in the positions that would make the scene just right.

Later in the movie, when Catcher is pretending to be Zip, he takes Barbara back to his apartment, and tells us that "the first switch starts the hi-fi, and the second lowers the light" and they discover the third folds the couch out in to a bed.
