Hey baby, no, um, um, yes, I'm all set.

Why don't you get something to eat?

Jo, we're already late.

Do you grab a bottle of wine?

Yeah.

If we get hit, you could lose an eye.

Not today.

How was your day?

Well, my day was fine.

Thank you.

Where's the wine?

Hey!

Oh, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

Hello.

You look nice, baby.

Thanks.

You didn't bring Sarah.

Oh, you didn't tell her?

I'll see you in an hour.

It should be finished by then.

Oh, well, thank you for that.

Barbara Henlow, thanks for having us.

Come see me upstairs, okay?

Will do.

How long were you two together?

Three months.

Three months?

So three months already?

Mm-hmm.

I thought, Monroe, I think we should schedule another meeting for Monday.

Okay.

It's just you and tomorrow, guys.

I bet you didn't even like Sarah, either, did you?

Well, I did.

I said I did.

Yeah, but I don't think that you meant it.

Thanks.

You're welcome.

Why is it so hard for me, Jo?

It isn't.

I mean, it can't be.

You haven't got to the hard bit yet.

Well, what, it gets harder than this?

Hello.

Hi.

So, good to see you.

Well, thank you for having us.

Andy.

Stuart.

Michael tells me you're working on a new book.

Michael always says that.

Oh.

He's probably right.

I just don't know it?

Yeah.

Well, I gotta go talk to somebody.

Eat.

I'll be here.

He hates me.

He's gonna fire me.

I know it.

You say that every week.

Yeah, well, it's true.

But it hasn't been in the last two years.

Yeah, well, maybe he's just waiting for the right time.

Hey, do you want me to walk Lucy while you guys are away?

Oh, yeah.

Yeah.

That'd be great.

Where is Michael, anyway?

Oh, here he is.

Here he is.

Let's go.

Joanna.

Um, yes, no, I'm gonna go to the, uh, the ladies.

I'll catch up.

Okay.

I'm starving.

Hey,

where have you guys been?

I got totally ambushed by Stuart.

The guy hasn't talked to me in two weeks.

He sees me with your wife.

He just lit up.

Hey.

Hello.

Hey.

Hi.

Laura, this is my Joanna.

Hello.

Nice to meet you.

Hi.

Joanna, this is Laura.

She's the new designer we've had working with us.

Ah.

Nice to finally meet you.

So, Michael tells me you're a writer.

Yeah, I am.

I've been meaning to order your book.

Oh, that's nice.

Oh, look.

Look.

Oh, my God.

Neil.

He's trying with Cynthia again.

She's not gonna go for it.

I know.

He just won't learn.

Why not?

He's a good-looking guy.

Ooh.

And why'd you turn him down?

Oh, speak of the devil.

Hey, guys.

Hey, Neil.

How are you?

Oh, Joanna.

Hello.

No luck?

What?

You didn't really go to the yoga with her, did you?

She told you that?

She told me about that.

Still trying with Cynthia, huh?

What?

You're getting jealous.

So, um, what's Laura's story?

Stu recruited her.

She seems to be good.

She's, uh, working the Monroe Project with us.

Of course she is.

Do you mind getting me some wine?

Mm-hmm.

Yeah, I should, uh...

Uh... No, not really.

No.

No.

Ah, mysterious story.

Remember when that was our story.

That's not funny.

There you go.

Hi.

Hey.

You wanna drink?

Yeah, white wine, please.

Sure.

She going to Philly with you guys tomorrow?

Yeah.

Oh, yeah.

I'll be there.

Yeah.

See you later.

Damn.

and she was in N.A., with Michael, last month.

Hey!

Have you been smoking?

Are you really going to attempt a Jimmy-Grief about that?

What's wrong?

Nothing.

Have I done something wrong?

She's pretty.

Who?

She's not aithmetic.

You never mentioned that.

Laura?

Yeah, Laura.

I think you described her as whatever.

I don't remember.

I bet.

You didn't tell me that she was in LA with you.

She wasn't in LA with me, we were just there at the same time.

Michael, face me.

You didn't tell me anything about her before

tonight, but then I think you know that.

What's that supposed to mean?

What did you think could happen tonight?

I mean seriously, did you think that I just wouldn't notice?

Why would I think anything about you noticing her?

You are a terrible liar.

Maybe because I don't like her.

She likes you and you like her.

Of course you don't want to talk to me about it.

Where's this come from?

My eyes, Michael.

She was the only one you talked to all night.

How many glasses of wine did you have tonight, Jo?

Two, and two for you sips.

Is that really your response?

Yeah, more than that.

What are you, the drink patrol?

You know that moment when we go out and I ask you not to have another?

You ask me why, well this is why.

You're kidding, right?

Because it makes you like this, baby.

Michael, without the wine you'd be in a much shittier place.

Eleven hours a day, five, sometimes six days a week.

What, that's sixty hours a week with her for three months now?

And what is it you think that I've done?

I checked my phone, Jo.

Jo?

Check email, check receipts, go on.

Oh, not everyone gets caught, Michael.

Has she told you she's attracted to you?

I don't know, maybe, Joanna.

You know, I don't let the conversation go there.

Oh, but it's tried to, hasn't it?

But it tried to when you were in LA together.

You have hours that I don't know about with the people that you work with.

You go away, do any articles, all the time.

And have I ever given you a reason to stand here feeling the way that I am right now?

I looked through a window tonight and I saw something that I didn't need to see.

You couldn't have just watched yourself and spared me this?

What the fuck are you doing?

Why do you always have to use this account?

Why'd you build the Berlin Wall of friggin' magazines?

I haven't done anything wrong.

And you're trying to pick a fight.

I spare you.

I would.

What's that supposed to mean?

What's that supposed to mean?

Is she going to Philadelphia with you and Andy tomorrow?

Uh-huh.

Has she been working on the Monroe property with us?

What?

What is that look?

That looks sad, Michael.

There's nothing going on, Jo.

Laura's just someone I work with.

It's not that I'm blaming you for being attracted to her.

She's... attractive.

And... it's natural to crave a newness.

Then what are you blaming me for?

For going out of your way not to admit it.

Thought I just did.

Don't do that face to her, you... Oh, fuck.

I know what I meant.

Now you corner me and you order me to admit something.

And then you pounce on me the second I cave in.

Now you're going to sleep on the couch?

Fucking fantastic.

I didn't do anything wrong, Jo.

I'm sorry.

What for?

I'm not sure, but...

I love you.

Come to bed.

Oh, you don't want to.

Come to the kitchen.

Food isn't going to fix this.

It's only out of a fool's stomach.

Come on.

Will you go and eat tomatoes?

No.

How was your day?

Mostly uneventful.

Oh, but...

Go on.

Oh, I think I just remembered I'm mad at you.

I hate it when that happens.

Danny proposed.

Really?

Yeah.

What did Pia say?

What do you think she said?

Yes.

Was she surprised, or...?

She thought that he was going to tell her he was moving out.

My mum called, and... Yeah, I know.

I spoke to her.

Second week of December, I've already said yes.

Can we go via London?

Yeah, sure.

What time's your train?

Eight.

You shouldn't be up this late.

I'll sleep on the train.

It's an hour's ride.

I'll sleep in the meeting.

What are you doing tomorrow?

Or today?

I've got to finish up the accessories piece.

Yeah?

Perls?

Yeah.

Dig up another hundred words.

That's good.

And then you'll be able to work on the book without me.

We're here to distract you.

Joey, I'm sorry.

I would have said something about her if I thought that there was something to say.

Michael, did something happen in LA?

No.

You swear?

I swear.

No.

Eggs are good.

How about the orange juice?

Come on, what kind of cafe is this?

Do you think we got married too soon?

What?

Why can't you let yourself consider that?

Because I don't have to.

I don't think we got married too soon because we married after four years.

Yeah, but we broke up in the middle.

Anyway, it's not about the amount of time.

It's about... It's about the when of time.

And our when included college.

You know...

That was before we were even us, you know?

I mean, do you think it's even the same between us?

I think it's better.

Can you hear yourself right now?

What?

Just because I disagree with you means I'm not aware of what I'm saying.

You can't really think that.

I do think that.

How?

Sunday night.

The last two weekends.

Breakfast yesterday.

Dinner last night.

There's no bullshit between us.

With the possible exception of this evening.

Cut

your running shoes?

No.

Thank you.

You gonna try and get some writing done?

Try is a big word.

No, it's not.

All right, I gotta go.

See you later.

Bye.

Bye.

Bye.

Bye.

I think it's a good idea.

Hello.

Just a bit of coffee.

Joanna.

Alex, what... What are you doing here?

I had some work here.

I...

I... I can't believe this.

Yeah, it's been a while.

How are you?

I'm...

I'm fine.

I just... I just can't believe you're here.

How did you know I'd be here?

Well, I... I keep tabs on you.

I'm serious.

So am I.

Your Christmas cards.

They have a return address on them.

What if I'd moved?

You haven't.

How long are you in New York for?

I leave tomorrow.

Actually, I'm late for a meeting.

Do you have time for me later?

Yeah.

Yeah, sure.

Good.

Then I'll call you later.

When's the time?

Okay.

Okay?

Wait, wait.

Do you need my number?

Has it changed?

No.

Then I'll call you later.

Wait.

Because I've never been able to sleep, I think that by

the time I sleep, I won't wake up for about four years.

It'd be like Rip Van Winkle.

Guys, I have to use a mentor.

Okay.

Michael.

Yeah?

I'm on my way for Anne.

It's funny because I could actually sleep anywhere.

Yeah?

Yeah, I could probably fall asleep right here.

Right there?

64722.

Operator.

Operator.

Operator.

Good morning.

How can I help you?

I'm checking in.

Name, please?

Michael.

Michael.

I feel better.

Hello?

Yeah?

About noon.

I think I thought I'd hallucinated the whole thing.

Yeah, yeah, no, no, that sounds good.

Okay.

No, I'll um, I'll meet you there.

All right, see you then.

Bye.

You look beautiful.

Thank you.

You caught me off guard this morning.

You look just as beautiful then.

Let's have a seat.

OK.

So, do I look different?

No.

I feel older.

You look the same.

You smell the same.

You do too.

OK.

Let's get you a drink.

Yeah.

Can I have two vodka martinis on ice?

With olives, please.

Right away, sir.

Thank you.

Can't be that kind of a night.

I know.

The last time we saw each other... Claridges.

For drinks.

That was almost... Two years ago.

That's right.

So, how's work?

How's the book?

Here you go, sir.

I don't know, but it's finished.

It is?

That's great.

Can I read it?

Of course.

You speak French?

Oh, good.

OK.

We're starting early.

Excellent.

The translation is almost finished.

You'll read it.

How's Paris?

How are you?

All good.

How is your work?

I'm doing freelance.

Fashion stuff, mainly.

It's good.

It's OK.

Where are you staying?

Here.

Oh, right.

You're still afraid of the subject being new for too long, right?

You're still afraid of the subject being new for too long, right?

Come on, this is strange.

Where's having a drink?

You, in New York.

Why?

Because you don't belong here.

I...

So...

Tell me something that counts.

It's been too long since I've seen you.

You meant something personal.

That is something very personal.

Are you seeing someone at the moment?

Hmm?

Tell me about her.

We are...

happily under-committed.

How long?

A few months.

That's long.

For you, Phoenicia.

No, I wasn't going to say that.

Feels good seeing you.

Bless the martini.

Obviously you guys want to keep the hotel.

We'll open as long as possible while we're doing work.

It's definitely something you need to think

about as far as how we're going to phase this.

Because now it's becoming very important to be eco-friendly.

You know, I was thinking about maybe solar panels, double-pane glass in all the rooms.

It's actually something that Michael has

invested a lot of his time in and making sure.

Because now, you know, it's actually a selling point.

People will stay at your hotel because you have these options.

And, you know, we think that it's really something that's

a lot of money up front, but then you get a payoff.

Absolutely.

So Stuart tells me you guys can probably bring it in in about three months.

Do you agree with that?

There's no problem.

It's all about the time.

Start date next week.

It might be done this side of the year.

All right.

You know your timing's nuts.

Why?

Are you getting a divorce?

No.

And then?

I think it's possible that I will you into being in my life.

It's like if I think about you too long, you pick up on it.

What?

Were you thinking about me?

I always think about you when things aren't going well.

What wasn't going well?

I should get going.

Where?

My room.

I'm kidding.

I'm having dinner with, you know the man who

bought the publishing house and we're his friends?

Oh.

You coming with me?

No, I'm not.

Why?

It's your work dinner.

I've been with him for a long time.

He's a friend.

You'll like him.

No.

I wouldn't feel comfortable.

I'm leaving tomorrow.

I can't cancel.

Come on, it's been two years.

Michael won't let you out one night.

Michael's out of town.

Let me get the check.

It's still a little early.

You up for grabbing a drink?

Oh, not so much.

You have an early day tomorrow.

All the more reason to relax a little tonight.

I don't think that'd be relaxing.

Are you sure?

I'm sure.

So if there's anything you'd like us to add to the

presentation, we should probably meet a little bit earlier.

Absolutely.

How long do we need?

30 minutes?

About 30 minutes.

How's that view?

It's good.

Thanks for dinner.

See you tomorrow.

Michael.

Thanks.

Goodnight.

Laura.

Goodnight.

Bye.

I'm exhausted.

I swear, I'm making conversations right up there with working out.

Not that I work out, but... Zach, I feel like a drink.

Oh, no, no, not me.

Plus, I thought that didn't sound relaxing.

Well, it didn't.

Not with Zach.

You up for it?

Sure, I'll have one.

Really?

Because I figured you didn't get much sleep last night.

I'm okay.

I'll call you in the morning.

We'll go for a run.

How's your mom?

She's better, thanks.

I know.

I know.

How are you?

Your friends are at the bar.

Ah!

Alex!

Hey!

How are you?

Great.

So good to see you.

So, Joanna, this is Sandra.

Hello.

Joanna, Truman.

Truman, Joanna.

How are you?

Excellent.

Good to see you.

My God, you're good looking.

Thank you.

She is.

Look at her.

I had no idea you were seeing someone in New York.

Oh, no.

We're just good friends.

Who sleep together?

Oh, come on.

I was joking.

I was wondering.

But, you know, it's way too early in the evening to answer a question like that.

Well, she's not answering any of it on my end.

No.

Thank you.

So, where do you two know each other from?

Go ahead.

Paris.

Paris.

I was writing a story and a mutual friend had a dinner.

When was that?

That was about four years ago.

Thoughts on wine, guys?

Let's have the Brunello we had last week.

So, Joanna, what do you write?

Uh, articles.

Freelance, mainly.

She writes books.

She's written one very good one already.

What's your last name?

Reid.

Was the first book not received well?

It wasn't really received at all.

She went with the wrong publisher.

Well, I think if it had been received, it wouldn't have been received well.

Are you being modest?

No.

Yes.

I wish.

Alright, I got ten more questions.

Would you like to hear the specials?

Yeah.

Would you like another?

That guy in the green sweater, if he leaves...

I'll have another.

Why?

I spent 12 and 13 doing things on the basis of other things happening or not happening.

Like...

Okay, like if my mother wore her navy skirt to work instead of her navy pants,

then I wouldn't talk to anybody on the bus.

But if she wore her pants, then I'd have to.

Afraid you'd be responsible for what you did?

Exactly.

And now?

I'm obviously experiencing a relapse.

I'd love another drink.

Okay.

I'm just not here.

This thing in my life where the most random, un-random

things happen to me all the time, does that make sense?

Yes.

I mean, it makes sense to me because I know you.

Joanna!

I don't really know you.

Maggie!

Hello!

I thought that was you.

What are you doing here?

We're just having dinner.

Where's Michael?

He's out of town at the moment.

Okay.

Well, uh... Call me.

Yeah, okay.

Enjoy your dinner.

Thank you.

Bye-bye.

Your best friend?

I'm so sorry I didn't introduce you.

Don't be.

Unless you couldn't remember our names.

Because I do that.

Me too, actually.

No worries.

Who's Michael?

He's my husband.

God, let's go.

Why didn't I order this?

Because you're gonna have mine.

So tell me about your wife.

Where'd that come from?

I don't know.

It just came.

She's great.

What does she do when you're out of town?

Same thing she does when I'm in town.

What's she doing tonight?

I don't know.

I thought... I thought you called her.

Yeah, I did.

I just...

You know, I couldn't get through.

How long have you been married?

Three years.

Yeah.

But you guys dated a while before.

Yeah.

We met in college.

Wow.

You met young.

Yeah, we did.

I've got a phone in man's room.

I'll meet you at the bar.

If it's a mangy cat, it becomes a man.

So it really means that it's a bad sign.

In dream world, a mangy cat... What is that?

Whose phone is that?

Sorry, it's me.

It's, um...

Michael's out of town, so excuse me.

Hello.

Hello.

Hey.

Oh, I'm just... I'm grabbing a bite.

I just stepped out.

How was your day?

Is that my phone or is that yours?

It's gotta be yours.

I hear you fine.

What?

I said I hear you fine.

How was your day?

It was good.

I got some work done.

This isn't a very good connection.

No, it's not that good.

Are you out?

I'm in a men's room.

But we're still with the clients.

Okay, why don't you give me a call tomorrow morning?

Okay.

Love you.

I love you.

Bye.

Bye.

I love it when you come back to the table and your food's there.

How long have you been married?

Uh, three years.

You have any kids?

No.

Don't you?

No.

I never wanted any.

In fact, that's why my first wife and I broke up.

That didn't come up before you got married?

Well, yes, of course it did.

But I think she thought that I would change after we got married.

But people don't change.

I mean, at most your weight fluctuates when you start dressing differently.

I realized for a host of reasons I probably

shouldn't be going here, but I'm going to.

That night in L.A., when we all went to that bar, we sat

on those low couches and Jeff wanted to sit next to us.

So you had to move over.

Your hand sort of...

rested against my leg.

What was that on purpose?

I had to be careful not to really let it rest there.

In case you moved.

I didn't move.

I wouldn't have.

We're married.

I know.

Still felt that nice.

That was so embarrassing.

Thank you.

No, no, that's good.

Usually she's doing it better.

The point was that I love Italy.

I love it there.

We have a place.

We go there about one month a year.

It's so wonderful.

Wait, this is who you went to Italy with?

When?

When I got to Paris early and your little cousin

was staying in the apartment until you got back.

And you were away with Patrick and his friends.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly.

This is them.

That's so weird.

I knew you seemed familiar.

How funny.

What if you were married?

Hypotheticals don't do much for me.

But...

probably nothing different.

Are you happy?

With what?

With your marriage.

Yeah.

There ain't.

You can be happy and still be tempted.

I know.

I'm just surprised you do.

Have you ever been with someone else since you've been married?

No.

Have you wanted to be?

What happens?

Think of Joanna.

Do you regret not doing it?

I'd regret it more if I did.

Have you ever cheated on anyone?

Chated?

Have you?

No.

Not necessarily out of principle.

I just...

I never wanted to.

Alex.

I know you want one.

I need one.

Yeah.

And I know you want one.

No.

No.

No.

She wants to keep me company.

I do.

I do.

You do?

I do.

Okay.

So have a good night.

It's a trap.

I know it.

You'll never challenge me.

When was the last time you saw Alex?

Two years ago.

So you don't know Helen?

Helen?

Alex's girlfriend?

From Paris?

Well, we don't really do...

We're not very good at keeping in touch with the...

the dailies.

You know, we talk when we talk.

She's nice.

I don't think he's gonna settle down with her any time soon, but...

I don't know that Alex will ever settle down with anyone.

He seems more whole on his own.

So where is your husband?

He's in Philadelphia on a business trip.

What's he do?

Commercial real estate development.

But I don't think that that's the question you wanted to ask.

No, it wasn't.

Go ahead.

I usually tend to go too far.

Okay, warning heard.

Does your husband know Alex?

No.

Does he know of him?

No.

Have we gone too far?

Yeah, maybe, but you know, it's fine.

Why haven't you told him?

I think once you know something like that, you can't unlearn it.

So what is it, something like that?

So...

Are you faithful?

Yes.

Would he forgive you if you weren't?

He's always said that he wouldn't.

Does that stop you?

Yeah, probably.

How long were you and Alex together?

Well, we were never really together.

You know, we were more kind of...

We were more on and off.

You think you'll tell your husband about tonight?

I don't know.

Tonight's not finished yet.

I don't know.

Tonight's not finished yet.

I don't know.

Tonight's

not finished yet.

Do you remember the last time we were here and we got in the wrong car?

Where was that?

Oh my god, you guys, come on.

Why don't you just drive with us?

Oh shit, Lucy.

Our friend's dog.

I said I'd walk her.

Where is she?

She's at our friend's apartment.

Are you just saying that to get out of going to the party?

No, no, no.

When were you last in New York?

About nine months ago.

Why didn't you get in touch?

I wasn't alone.

Oh.

Andy Cooks?

No.

I bought that for him last year.

I don't think he's ever used it.

I do, though, when we're over.

So, why aren't you writing?

I am writing.

No, why aren't you writing?

You mean... Your book, Joanna.

My editor says that I just need to get over my doubt.

What do you doubt?

Everything, Alex.

I...

I go to write and every word, every thought, every choice that I make leads to

another and I doubt every single one I make.

It wasn't like this last time.

You live with your first book all your life.

It sort of...

It comes out on its own.

After that, though, it's different.

You can suddenly write anything and you second-guess everything.

Dads will kill your work.

Will they?

I don't know.

What's the matter with doubt?

I think the world could use a little more doubt.

So I doubt.

Well, the good of the world.

Exactly.

No, thank you.

This book was good, Joanna.

You know, I think you might have just ruined this kitchen for me.

How?

By being in it.

You come here all the time and now you've been here.

OK.

So...

Remind me why it didn't work.

Geography.

People live between two cities.

I don't.

And neither do you.

And timing.

You were broken up.

Temporarily.

Technically.

Whateverly.

We got back together.

After we'd already been together for a really long time.

You came after.

Oh.

So you were with him because he came first?

He did.

And I love him.

And I love you too.

And I love being able to tell you the truth.

And I love...

faith and the loyalty and... all that shit, even now.

And this?

This?

I didn't know that this would be what it is on its own.

I mean, this is only what it is.

Because it's something that's between me, my marriage to Michael, you and your...

set of things.

Does Andy have anything to drink?

What are my things?

Nothing.

I'm criticising.

I'm just...

I know that if we went for it, we'd lose it.

I think it's still as hard as it is because... because we never wore it out.

You know, we were just getting to know that we weren't...

You didn't want it.

No.

No.

I came to Paris for two months.

You do hold that against me.

I don't hold anything against you.

I was finishing a book.

I was too tired to figure out what you being there even meant.

It should have meant that you wanted to spend some time with me.

It doesn't matter.

No, no, no.

It matters to me.

Because I'm the one who has to see you here.

I'm the one who has to look around I've been running

around Andes to see these pictures of you in this life.

What?

I was what you needed to be sure of, Michael?

No.

No, it doesn't work like that.

I think...

Maybe I've never wanted this to change.

Everything... everything changes, everything

changes, but this... this still hasn't.

Not for me.

Hasn't lessened.

I saw you this morning and...

And in the middle of most nights when I can't sleep, I still replay you.

I'm going to take her out for a walk.

The keys, Alex.

I thought you took them with you.

No.

Oh, merde.

Did you leave them upstairs?

Yeah.

Can we buzz someone?

Um, we could call Caroline, but...

Um...

Shit.

Give me that.

I'll give it back to you tomorrow.

Let's go.

You weren't lying about the dog.

Come with me.

Let's find Fred.

Okay.

Her husband's best friend's dog.

Is she the one Chris told me about?

I don't know.

What?

At... at Phillip's wedding?

After you'd just broken off with Lauren.

I asked him what the hell was wrong with you and...

I like Lauren.

But I like this one much more.

She's... she's smart.

Yeah.

And she's funny.

Yeah.

She's gorgeous.

I know.

And she's honest.

Well, I mean, besides the fact she's out with you and her husband's out of town.

But she's married.

I know.

No.

You don't.

No.

You've never been married.

I mean, fuck the vows.

It's... it's... it's the years you can't undo.

You will never be able to take away the years with her husband.

And the moment you try...

this... this will be gone.

Trust me.

That'll be a shame.

I bet you've had less than a hundred days together, am I right?

It's the best.

Be smart.

Keep it as it is.

I'm in.

Your turn.

Here.

Oh, come on.

I'm not gonna be the only one in here in my underwear.

You look uncomfortable.

I am uncomfortable.

You don't hold much back, do you?

We're here in our underwear.

I think it's a little late for that, no?

Do you remember me?

Do you remember that first night?

Do you ever think about it?

Of course I do.

I didn't want to go home, and you put me in a taxi.

And do you remember that night when we met the photographer you were interviewing?

And he was drunk.

And he was drunk.

And you danced in the top of yours with no bag.

Come on.

Let's go.

So, have you ever been cheated on?

No.

Well, I have.

The worst part was how I found out.

We shared a photo account, and I went on the website to order some pictures.

And I saw the album she decided to share with him.

I think they were together for the weekend or something.

I could have done without the visuals.

There was just one of them.

Laughing so hard.

What happened?

We fought like animals.

Like animals for about a month.

And, you know, I was angry.

Maybe because I thought I had to be.

Or maybe because I was sad.

But he still wanted to be with me.

Me?

I still wanted to be with him.

So what happened?

We stayed together.

Had the best year of our relationship.

And then?

He died.

I'm sorry.

Do you want anything to drink?

No, I'm fine.

Do you think you still would have been with him?

Yeah.

Definitely.

And I think I'd still be here.

Attracted to you.

I never guessed what I was upset about this morning.

Michael had a work thing last night and we went and...

I accused him of being attractive.

Attracted to this woman he's working with.

Was he?

I think so.

You think there's something going on?

I think there could be.

I think he'd want there to be.

He's in Philadelphia with her right now.

Are you worried?

I think I made too big a deal out of it.

Why?

It's two o'clock in the morning and I'm here with you.

It's only how you can get up and have absolutely no idea where the day will go.

80, 90, a thousand go by without incident and then all of a sudden, hello.

Hello.

What if I hadn't come out for coffee this morning?

I would have called.

If my number had changed?

I would have gone upstairs.

What about Michael?

Why did you stop emailing me?

Because it wasn't enough.

Do you know how often I have to make a choice not to write?

Hello, Alex.

How are you?

Where are you?

What are you doing?

Do you want to meet me?

Wherever?

This Friday for dinner?

Just to catch up?

You really touch me whenever you feel like it, don't you?

No, I don't.

I touch you a fraction of how often I feel like it.

Why?

Because I like you.

I can't do any more and look him in the eye.

You just told me he's away with a woman you got upset about.

Michael isn't doing anything.

Do you know, I've never told him about us.

You know, even when I've felt the need to confess something.

Which is when?

When we're drunk or happy or after a fight or in the middle of one.

You know, when things slip out.

This never does.

Why?

Would he be angry?

He'd have no right to be.

I gave you up.

So what's Helen like?

We have another couple of hours.

I don't want to spend them talking about Helen.

Jo, come here.

What time is it?

6.30.

Laura.

Michael, I don't need us to talk about it.

Last night.

Michael, please.

Just don't.

I didn't think that would happen.

Not even the second time.

Wow, there's so much going on right now, isn't there?

What I wouldn't give to have tired of you.

Let me drop you off.

No, I'd rather walk.

You sure?

Yeah, it'll be good for her.

It'll be good for me.

Let's not do this in a big way, okay?

Please?

See you.

Hey Andy, it's me.

I need you to cover for me.

Hey.

Hey.

You ready?

Yeah.

Where's Michael?

He had to go back to New York.

Is everything okay?

Yeah, yeah.

He left me a voicemail.

I guess Stuart needed him to go back.

Oh.

Okay.

I'll see you out front.

Joey.

When I'm home, I'm no...

Joey.

What are you doing back?

What's Lucy doing here?

We got locked out of Andy's.

Who?

Me and Lucy.

When?

Erm, last night when I...

When I went over to walk her.

You been crying, Joey?

A little bit.

What are you doing back?

We finished up early.

I thought the presentation was today.

No.

No, we finished up early.

I'm sorry about our fight.

Yeah, so am I.

Let's not talk about it, okay?

Well, let's have a great lunch and... you know, let's walk.

Let's...

you know, make a day of it.

Does she want to go out?

Probably.

I'll take her.

Yeah.

I love you.
