00:00:34Come on.
00:00:35Come on.
00:00:54Hi.
00:00:56Oh, it really is my birthday.
00:00:58Hi, sweetheart.
00:01:00Hello.
00:01:01Are you coming to dinner?
00:01:02Sorry, Mom.
00:01:03Final suite.
00:01:04Oh.
00:01:05Open your present now, Mom.
00:01:07Okay.
00:01:17Oh, it's beautiful.
00:01:20It's so beautiful.
00:01:22Oh, thank you, honey.
00:01:24Thank you so much.
00:01:26Oh, you are such good children.
00:01:31I think your dad will remember.
00:01:33He didn't forget last year.
00:01:35Well, that's because the two of you spent the whole month dropping hence.
00:01:38This year, he's been in San Francisco for the last three weeks.
00:01:49Mark?
00:01:50I'm starting to get worried.
00:01:51What took you so long?
00:01:52You better hurry.
00:01:54Mark?
00:01:55Mark?
00:01:56Did something happen?
00:02:00It's not the twins.
00:02:01I just saw them.
00:02:06Where's your luggage?
00:02:15Mark, what is it?
00:02:17What?
00:02:18All right, Maggie.
00:02:19Now, listen to me.
00:02:20This isn't easy for me to say.
00:02:21I'm just going to say it.
00:02:22I'm not happy.
00:02:23I don't think either one of us is happy.
00:02:25I mean, if it's not good for me, how can it possibly be good for you?
00:02:28Huh?
00:02:29Now, Maggie, the kids are grown.
00:02:32And we've changed.
00:02:33We're not the same people we were 20 years ago.
00:02:3622.
00:02:39We've been married 22 years in June.
00:02:4222.
00:02:4322.
00:02:45I didn't plan for this to happen.
00:02:46I mean, I didn't go looking for this to happen.
00:02:49Honest to God, Maggie, this just happened.
00:02:52And you know what a comfort that's always been for me, Mark.
00:02:54Yeah, well, this is a little bit different.
00:02:57I want to get married.
00:02:58I want to marry her.
00:03:01Maggie, look, I mean, we've been working together all these months up in San Francisco, you know?
00:03:05And, I mean, you met her.
00:03:08You met her at the Christmas party last year.
00:03:11Jennifer Brody.
00:03:12She's about 27, I don't know, blonde.
00:03:15Comes up to about...
00:03:18About here.
00:03:26Sorry.
00:03:28Just...
00:03:30Maggie, I want a divorce, don't I?
00:03:34You know what I want to do?
00:03:35I don't want to lie to you anymore.
00:03:36I don't want to sneak around anymore.
00:03:38I don't want to...
00:03:39I don't want to do any of that sort of thing.
00:03:40I want to be honorable about this whole thing.
00:03:43Honorable?
00:03:46Is leaving your wife for another woman honorable?
00:03:49I'll tell you what.
00:03:51I'll have somebody come by and get my things.
00:03:54And then, uh...
00:03:56I'll have Arnie call you about the terms.
00:03:59And...
00:04:00Please don't worry about a thing.
00:04:01I'm gonna be...
00:04:02I'm gonna be generous with you, and you know I will.
00:04:10Mark?
00:04:14You forgot to wish me a happy birthday.
00:04:16I'm sorry.
00:04:17I'm sorry, Maggie.
00:04:18I didn't realize it was today.
00:04:19I'm sorry, Maggie.
00:04:20I didn't realize it was today.
00:04:21I'm sorry, Maggie.
00:04:22I didn't realize it was today.
00:04:23I'm sorry, Maggie.
00:04:24I didn't realize it was today.
00:04:26I'm sorry, Maggie.
00:04:27I'm sorry, Maggie.
00:04:28I didn't realize it was today.
00:04:39I'm sure you do.
00:04:55I know it was today.
00:04:56I know it was today, but I'm sorry.
00:04:58I don't know it was today.
00:05:12I'm sorry.
00:05:17Or a couple of days ago.
00:05:21Happy birthday to my oldest and dearest friend!
00:05:23And this is on the Elvis.
00:05:25My gentleman caller, Walter,
00:05:27there's a ton,
00:05:28anyway, whatever,
00:05:29he looks like Harrison Ford
00:05:30and he's parking the car now.
00:05:33And I have the most fantastic
00:05:35bottle of champagne
00:05:36and I think we should pop the cork
00:05:39and immediately start celebrating.
00:05:43What?
00:05:44Oh, no.
00:05:47By the look on your face,
00:05:49I can only wonder
00:05:50who Mark has been up to this time.
00:05:53Jennifer, blonde, 27,
00:05:55comes up to about here on him.
00:05:57Good old Mark,
00:05:58one notch above an alley cat.
00:06:00Oh, no.
00:06:01He's honorable now.
00:06:03He's gonna marry this one.
00:06:06I don't know what to do, Sam.
00:06:08Oh, come home.
00:06:10As fast as you can.
00:06:12I mean, look, Chicago is Mark's town.
00:06:14You never intended to stay here anyway.
00:06:16My children are here.
00:06:17The twins have their own lives.
00:06:19I mean, you hardly ever see them.
00:06:21Settle this and come home.
00:06:24You could be in deep cove
00:06:25in a couple of months.
00:06:27Let me get rid of Harrison Ford.
00:06:29We're gonna talk this out.
00:06:31We'll sit down
00:06:31and figure out what to do.
00:06:32Hi, guys.
00:06:48Thanks for your help.
00:06:53Hi.
00:06:54I'm sorry I'm late.
00:06:58Closing for so long,
00:06:59I thought I'd be finished two hours ago.
00:07:01No problem.
00:07:02We got everything in.
00:07:03Here's the receipt.
00:07:04I hope you own this house.
00:07:05Well, the agent says that I do.
00:07:07I call the twins.
00:07:11Peter's still mad at me for moving.
00:07:13Oh, well, everybody's like that at 19.
00:07:16You know how kids are.
00:07:17They don't want anything to change
00:07:18except themselves.
00:07:19But now it's your turn.
00:07:22My turn.
00:07:23Whatever that means.
00:07:25Well, I got a good idea.
00:07:27Let's go to my house.
00:07:28We'll take a hot shower.
00:07:30We'll order a little Chinese
00:07:31and we'll watch out of Africa.
00:07:33I think you're gonna feel a lot better
00:07:34when you see what Meryl Streep's been through.
00:07:36Oh, Sam.
00:07:38I want to get it over with.
00:07:40I'm gonna have to stay here alone
00:07:41sooner or later.
00:07:42Come on.
00:07:43I got clean sheets and towels
00:07:44and I know exactly where they are.
00:07:48Oh, honey.
00:07:49You look so sad.
00:07:53All right.
00:07:53Okay.
00:07:54All right.
00:07:55Be alone.
00:07:56Get your breath.
00:07:57Thanks, Sam.
00:07:59You're gonna be fine.
00:08:00And we are going to have a great time.
00:08:04See ya.
00:08:21A little higher.
00:08:23Just a little higher.
00:08:24Yes, that's perfect.
00:08:25Okay.
00:08:26Okay.
00:08:28Woo.
00:08:29All right.
00:08:30Sam, I haven't decorated anybody's house
00:08:32but my own is so long.
00:08:34Well, you know,
00:08:35design is like sex
00:08:36after a long absence.
00:08:37You may be a little nervous.
00:08:38You may think you need
00:08:39to be shown a few things.
00:08:40But then it all comes back to you.
00:08:43You know,
00:08:43I'm really excited about all of this,
00:08:45but I can't stop thinking
00:08:47about what I've lost.
00:08:48With Mark?
00:08:50You lost that a long time ago.
00:08:52And the twins are gonna come visit.
00:08:54Come on.
00:08:55Come on.
00:08:55Come on.
00:08:55Come on.
00:08:56Come on.
00:08:57Come on.
00:08:58Come on.
00:08:59Come on.
00:09:00Come on.
00:09:01Come on.
00:09:02Come on.
00:09:32Come on.
00:09:49Oh, lucky for them.
00:09:51It's going to be Summer House.
00:09:53Nobody should have to live
00:09:54through that renovation.
00:09:55I don't even want to think
00:09:55about the bathrooms.
00:09:57I think a good architect
00:09:59for this would be Mark Payne.
00:10:00Why him?
00:10:01Well, he's very, very good.
00:10:02He's also newly single
00:10:04and gorgeous.
00:10:05You need to start mixing
00:10:06a little pleasure
00:10:07with your business.
00:10:08You're not interested.
00:10:10Maggie,
00:10:11it's been two years
00:10:12and all you do
00:10:13is work.
00:10:14You need to taste life.
00:10:16You need to find
00:10:17a great fashion
00:10:18like Angus and I had.
00:10:19You know,
00:10:20the kind where your heart pounds
00:10:21and you'd feel really hot
00:10:22all the way down.
00:10:23Sam,
00:10:23the thought of dating again.
00:10:26Maggie,
00:10:27who said anything
00:10:28about dating?
00:10:29I'm talking about
00:10:30some delicious sex.
00:10:32Sam!
00:10:34Men and love
00:10:35and sex
00:10:36are normal
00:10:37and healthy
00:10:37and fun.
00:10:38You can't hide
00:10:39from them forever.
00:10:40Men are fun!
00:10:41Okay,
00:10:44all right.
00:10:44I shall not press.
00:10:46On the way
00:10:47to the tile store,
00:10:48I'm gonna show you
00:10:49my new way
00:10:50of having a little fun.
00:10:55I've had this fantasy
00:10:56for the longest time.
00:10:58I think this would make
00:10:59an amazing country inn,
00:11:01you know,
00:11:01with a really great
00:11:02gourmet restaurant,
00:11:04a romantic little rendezvous.
00:11:06It's just what
00:11:06this town needs.
00:11:11Oh, boy.
00:11:17Well,
00:11:18you've got to be kidding.
00:11:21How much money
00:11:22did Angus leave you?
00:11:23I mean,
00:11:23wouldn't it be easier
00:11:24just to take it all out
00:11:25and burn it?
00:11:26You think I'm risking
00:11:27my money?
00:11:28No way.
00:11:29I've got a couple
00:11:30of rich investors
00:11:31who are perfectly happy
00:11:32to burn their money.
00:11:34Well,
00:11:34this is their big chance.
00:11:38Well,
00:11:38and this must be
00:11:42that's two.
00:11:43Hey,
00:11:44come on.
00:11:44Where's your imagination?
00:11:46This is a very romantic
00:11:49little lounge.
00:11:51Trust me.
00:11:52I just met the guy
00:11:53who lit the bankwell place.
00:11:55He turned that old
00:11:56mausoleum into a palace.
00:11:58The guy's a lighting genius.
00:12:00Well,
00:12:00if he's so good,
00:12:01why did you just
00:12:02discover him?
00:12:02Because he just moved here
00:12:04from Crestridge.
00:12:06I'm telling you,
00:12:07his resume is amazing.
00:12:08You know,
00:12:09Rhode Island School of Design,
00:12:10five years of the best homes
00:12:12in Westport
00:12:13and his photography portfolio.
00:12:15Oh.
00:12:17There he is.
00:12:18Rather handsome,
00:12:19don't you think?
00:12:20Wow.
00:12:21He's too young for you, Sam.
00:12:22I know.
00:12:23Life can be so unfair.
00:12:25Jake.
00:12:26Hi.
00:12:26How are you?
00:12:27Uh, Maggie,
00:12:28I'd like for you to meet
00:12:29Jake Cardell,
00:12:30and this is my business partner,
00:12:31Maggie Sorrell.
00:12:35Push her.
00:12:36Well, Maggie,
00:12:38why don't you, uh,
00:12:39tell Jake
00:12:40what you had in mind here?
00:12:43About the room.
00:12:45The room.
00:12:48Well,
00:12:49it's too dark.
00:12:51No kidding.
00:12:55Well,
00:12:56okay,
00:12:56off the top of my head,
00:12:58um,
00:12:59we could cut in some windows
00:13:00over there,
00:13:01and we could lighten up
00:13:02this old wood.
00:13:03It'd be a shame
00:13:04to cut into this
00:13:05beautiful old wood.
00:13:08With the right lighting,
00:13:09this room could have
00:13:09a great golden tone.
00:13:10It takes wood years
00:13:11to achieve this kind of patina.
00:13:12Yeah.
00:13:12It could be very romantic in here.
00:13:15But hey,
00:13:18you two are the designers,
00:13:19not me.
00:13:20No.
00:13:20No, I mean,
00:13:21you're absolutely right.
00:13:25Well,
00:13:26I think this is going
00:13:27very well.
00:13:30Well,
00:13:32la-dee-da,
00:13:33you little cradle-ropper,
00:13:34you.
00:13:35Come on,
00:13:36I'm old enough
00:13:36to be his
00:13:37sister.
00:13:39I probably reminded me
00:13:40of somebody,
00:13:41an aunt or a teacher
00:13:42or something.
00:13:43Yeah,
00:13:43well,
00:13:43I'd get my lesson plans ready
00:13:45because I think school
00:13:46is just about to start.
00:13:50See you later.
00:13:51I wonder where he goes
00:13:51for recess.
00:14:05You don't have to knock
00:14:06in your own home.
00:14:08Bye.
00:14:09Bye.
00:14:12That's nice.
00:14:14Professor Deborah
00:14:15will be proud of you.
00:14:16He is.
00:14:17I sit on my picture of it.
00:14:18He wants to put it
00:14:19in alumni's room.
00:14:20That's great.
00:14:20And he asked about you.
00:14:23You got everything in here?
00:14:26Your seats
00:14:27and cancel checks
00:14:27and stuff?
00:14:29Jake?
00:14:30Yeah.
00:14:32We had
00:14:33ten good years together.
00:14:37I was
00:14:38wrong
00:14:39to lie to you
00:14:41the way that I did.
00:14:43But,
00:14:43Jake,
00:14:43I want to make it up to you.
00:14:45Amy,
00:14:45I kept my promise.
00:14:50I gave our separation
00:14:51a year.
00:14:53Nothing changed for me.
00:14:55I tried.
00:14:57You know I did.
00:15:01It's over.
00:15:02I'm sorry.
00:15:06I only stopped by
00:15:07because we still have to
00:15:08file a joint tax return.
00:15:09You drove all this way.
00:15:13You might as well
00:15:14stay for dinner.
00:15:19Let's just get divorced.
00:15:21Let's go on with our lives.
00:15:24Please.
00:15:27Jake,
00:15:27this is so hard for me.
00:15:30I've always kept my end of the deal.
00:15:31I will take care of you.
00:15:33I will take care of you.
00:15:46Hello, Jake.
00:15:47Hi, Klein.
00:15:48Sorry you trapped up there.
00:15:49You know, Amy,
00:15:56if you'd had some children,
00:15:58I think he would have stayed.
00:15:59I mean,
00:15:59that's all he ever talked about.
00:16:00Kids.
00:16:02Oh,
00:16:03look at you.
00:16:04Look at you.
00:16:04Look at your hair.
00:16:05Look at your,
00:16:05your clothes.
00:16:07Look,
00:16:07if you want to get him back,
00:16:08you're going to have to do better than this.
00:16:10Not now,
00:16:10mother.
00:16:11Not now.
00:16:20Oh.
00:16:22Hi.
00:16:22Hi.
00:16:23I wanted to get Ted in here
00:16:24before the day got too busy.
00:16:26Ted's the chief electrician here.
00:16:28Um,
00:16:29Ted,
00:16:29I want you to meet Maggie Sorrell.
00:16:31She's a designer.
00:16:33Hello.
00:16:33Hi.
00:16:35Listen,
00:16:35Sam called me at home last night.
00:16:37She said she wanted to expand the project
00:16:39to include the guest cottages.
00:16:41The guest cottages.
00:16:42Yeah.
00:16:43She suggested we all meet at your house tomorrow
00:16:45so she can tell us what's on her mind
00:16:46and we can drive out together.
00:16:48Eight o'clock,
00:16:48right?
00:16:50Come around to the back door.
00:16:52The front door's hard to open.
00:16:53Okay.
00:16:56Ted,
00:16:57boxes in the hallway.
00:17:10Sam,
00:17:11what do you think you're doing?
00:17:19Perfect timing.
00:17:21I just made some bread.
00:17:22Morning.
00:17:23All right,
00:17:23come in.
00:17:26Sit down.
00:17:30Wow.
00:17:31Seems like, uh,
00:17:32I haven't had a home-cooked breakfast
00:17:33in forever.
00:17:36Really?
00:17:36Sam and I thought
00:17:37a handsome young bachelor like yourself
00:17:39probably gets all the home-cooked breakfast he wants.
00:17:44Not that we were talking about it.
00:17:46I mean,
00:17:47a single young man like yourself
00:17:49might not get many home-cooked meals.
00:17:51Which could be breakfast.
00:17:55Or not.
00:17:57Coffee.
00:17:59You want some?
00:17:59Yes.
00:18:07Smells delicious.
00:18:15It's too bad Sam couldn't make it.
00:18:19Food boy's name,
00:18:20she said.
00:18:21I hope so.
00:18:23I mean,
00:18:23I hope that's all it is.
00:18:29You like opera?
00:18:31Sorry.
00:18:32I never really cared for it.
00:18:33It's too bad.
00:18:36My father taught me.
00:18:39Other kids
00:18:39learn how to fish
00:18:41are learned opera.
00:18:43This is Puccini.
00:18:45It's Madame Butterfly.
00:18:47It's the story
00:18:48of a Japanese maiden
00:18:49who falls in love
00:18:50with an American sailor.
00:18:51She has this baby
00:18:52and he marries another woman
00:18:54and she kills herself.
00:18:56Well,
00:18:56that's cheerful.
00:18:57But Magnus?
00:19:03Puccini said
00:19:03that he didn't write
00:19:04Madame Butterfly.
00:19:05It was dictated to him.
00:19:07My God.
00:19:08It's pretty interesting.
00:19:09Yes, it is.
00:19:11It's very interesting.
00:19:12It's very interesting.
00:19:12Watch your step.
00:19:31Here.
00:19:42It's going to make
00:19:46an adorable guest cottage.
00:19:49Yeah.
00:19:50And about $50,000.
00:19:55This place is going to take
00:19:56months to mark on.
00:20:01I thought I had the plans in here.
00:20:03I'm usually so organized,
00:20:05I...
00:20:07I have some lighting ideas
00:20:10for the lounge
00:20:10I'd like to show you.
00:20:12Sure.
00:20:13Okay.
00:20:13Okay.
00:20:29All right.
00:20:30It's going to get dark
00:20:30for a second.
00:20:31You have to let
00:20:31your eyes adjust.
00:20:32You ready?
00:20:39Mm-hmm.
00:20:42You ready?
00:20:44Yes.
00:20:49What do you think?
00:20:52I can't tell.
00:20:54What do you think?
00:21:02You ready?
00:21:02Beautiful.
00:21:03Absolutely beautiful.
00:21:21Absolutely beautiful.
00:21:22Absolutely beautiful.
00:21:23Maggie?
00:21:35I brought the invoices.
00:21:40We said six o'clock, didn't we?
00:21:42He knew what we planned.
00:21:45No, Hannah, that's exactly why he's doing it.
00:21:51I want you to go.
00:21:52It's a beautiful place.
00:21:57Mm-hmm.
00:22:02All right. I love you. Bye.
00:22:07Everything all right, Maggie?
00:22:12You look like somebody's giving you a hard time.
00:22:15Even if it's a contractor, I can help.
00:22:17No, it's personal.
00:22:20None of my business.
00:22:20Listen, I mean, maybe somebody else should go.
00:22:22No, that's not what I meant, Jake.
00:22:24There's just nothing you can do about it.
00:22:25Well, I can listen.
00:22:27If that'll help.
00:22:28I have a son and a daughter.
00:22:38Twins.
00:22:39They're grown.
00:22:39I was planning to go to Chicago for their birthday, but their father decided to take them to California instead.
00:22:48So the woman that he left me for is going to be spending their 21st birthday with them.
00:22:53And I won't be.
00:22:56Prince of a guy, huh?
00:22:58Yeah.
00:23:02Thanks.
00:23:02Just needed some support.
00:23:05Any time, Maggie.
00:23:50Jake, I'm too old for you.
00:23:56You don't feel that way to me.
00:24:01Maybe we should go over those invoices some other time.
00:24:10Right.
00:24:15I'm sorry if I was out of line.
00:24:20Good morning.
00:24:38Morning, Maggie.
00:24:39Somebody needs to measure those guest cottage windows today.
00:24:42I want to order the custom mill molding.
00:24:44I'll do it.
00:24:44You know what?
00:24:47I decided not to use those.
00:24:48We'll bring real tartans back from Scotland.
00:24:51Angus would have loved that.
00:24:53So, help me come up with a good name.
00:24:56Sam's Old Country Inn.
00:24:58That's boring.
00:25:02Sam's Opium Den and What Not Shop.
00:25:05Maggie.
00:25:08What?
00:25:10It's Jake, isn't it?
00:25:13Oh, my God, it is.
00:25:16So, what happened and how was it?
00:25:19Maggie, come on.
00:25:20I'm your best friend.
00:25:21You're supposed to tell me everything, no matter how titillating or scandalous or graphic.
00:25:26So, tell.
00:25:27It was just a kiss.
00:25:29A kiss?
00:25:31Really?
00:25:32Oh, and what a kiss, huh?
00:25:35Oh, I love that first kiss feeling.
00:25:38It's just such a delicious, nutritious thing.
00:25:42It's good, huh?
00:25:44Mm-hmm.
00:25:45Oh, that is so great.
00:25:47I'm so happy for you.
00:25:48What fun.
00:25:49A fling.
00:25:50A fling.
00:25:58I'd like to talk to you about what happened yesterday.
00:26:10I, uh, I haven't kissed a woman in more than a year.
00:26:20I've just been trying to concentrate on my work.
00:26:22I knew that day we drove out here together that something was happening to me.
00:26:30To us.
00:26:33I started doing my best work wherever I thought you might see it.
00:26:37I didn't plan what happened yesterday, but I'm glad it did.
00:26:46How old are you?
00:26:47We're 12 years apart.
00:26:48I asked Sam.
00:26:51She told me it.
00:26:53Oh.
00:26:54Sam.
00:26:55Look, the age thing doesn't...
00:26:58It doesn't matter to me at all.
00:27:02I have feelings for you, Maggie.
00:27:04I'm very flattered, Jake.
00:27:08I admire you and your work very much.
00:27:12But I don't think that we should, uh...
00:27:16I should be going.
00:27:20Maggie.
00:27:23If you're telling me you're not interested or that I don't have a chance, I'll accept that.
00:27:29I won't mention it again.
00:27:32I'm just asking you.
00:27:35Before you walk out that door, to be sure.
00:27:41Are you sure, Maggie?
00:27:42I don't think I'm going to be sure.
00:27:44I don't think I'm going to be sure.
00:27:44I don't think I'm going to be sure.
00:27:45I don't think I'm going to be sure.
00:27:45I don't think I'm going to be sure.
00:27:46I don't think I'm going to be sure.
00:27:47I don't think I'm going to be sure.
00:27:47I don't think I'm going to be sure.
00:27:47I don't think I'm going to be sure.
00:27:48I don't think I'm going to be sure.
00:27:49I don't think I'm going to be sure.
00:27:50I don't think I'm going to be sure.
00:27:51I don't think I'm going to be sure.
00:27:52I don't think I'm going to be sure.
00:27:53I don't think I'm going to be sure.
00:27:54I don't think I'm going to be sure.
00:27:55I don't think I'm going to be sure.

00:34:48Hi.
00:34:52Ah! You scared me.
00:34:54What brings you out in this heat?
00:34:58Turning on the air conditioning.
00:35:01Well, you're obviously not packing for Scotland.
00:35:04No.
00:35:05Didn't I tell you?
00:35:06Jake's picking me up at 6.
00:35:08We're gonna spend the weekend at Jermaine's.
00:35:09No, you didn't mention it.
00:35:11Must be pretty heady stuff for a middle-class boy.
00:35:14I mean, Jermaine's not even old money.
00:35:15Wait till he meets your really rich friends.
00:35:19Then he'll stick to you like glue for sure.
00:35:24Sam, I don't think I've ever heard you say anything quite so nasty.
00:35:27Well, stick around. The fun's just begun.
00:35:30What in the world is wrong with you?
00:35:33I'll tell you what's wrong with me.
00:35:35Maggie, a few daring sexual escapades are one thing.
00:35:39But it's only been a month.
00:35:43Five weeks.
00:35:44All right, five weeks.
00:35:45And you're taking him to Jermaine's for the weekend?
00:35:48And Bunny Gibson just called to say that you asked for him to be included on the guest list at Pia's wedding.
00:35:53You know Bunny Gibson and how seriously she takes her guest list.
00:35:58Is this happening?
00:36:00Are you telling me that Jake is not good enough to go to Pia's wedding?
00:36:04Is that because he's too young?
00:36:06Too handsome?
00:36:07Too talented?
00:36:08Or is it because he doesn't have enough money?
00:36:10Or is it because, Sam, you're jealous?
00:36:12It's none of the above.
00:36:14Then what is your problem?
00:36:15It's not my problem.
00:36:17Your problem is Jake is married.
00:36:21Yeah, you know, I mean, it was one thing.
00:36:23If it was just a little fling, I mean, it didn't matter, right?
00:36:25You know, but, um, well, I realized that, you know, I had to tell you about this before you got in any deeper.
00:36:34Maggie, look, I mean, considering the age difference, you know, and, well, as long as we're being brutally honest, the financial difference, you gotta let this guy go.
00:36:44Well, I gotta go talk to Alice about a window treatment for the inn, unless you want me to stay with you.
00:36:52I'm sorry, Maggie.
00:36:53I am so sorry.
00:36:55All the rooms are basically the same, but, you know, different fabrics, because each guest suite will, of course, be decorated differently.
00:37:06So.
00:37:07Sam, I'm sorry.
00:37:08Alice, could you stand there for just one second?
00:37:11I'll meet you downstairs.
00:37:12Now, you see, there's too much white in the indirects.
00:37:16People are gonna look like they're drinking themselves to death.
00:37:19I'll go get the others out of the truck.
00:37:21I can be out of here at five with the latest.
00:37:23You're not even divorced yet.
00:37:24Ted Gunderson, your mother raised you better than to stick your nose into other people's business.
00:37:32Alice, thank you.
00:37:34I don't need you to fight my battles for me, okay?
00:37:36Oh, that's what you know.
00:37:37This is a small town.
00:37:39Word spreads fast.
00:37:40There's a lot of people doing to prove.
00:37:42This is between Maggie and myself.
00:37:45Okay?
00:37:45As far as I'm concerned, nobody else can just go to...
00:37:46Okay.
00:37:47Right?
00:37:47Good.
00:37:48Okay.
00:37:49That's the kind of man Maggie deserves.
00:37:54Maggie, it's me.
00:38:02Hey.
00:38:04Aren't you ready?
00:38:09Sam told me that you're married.
00:38:10Yeah.
00:38:14I'm separated.
00:38:19I tried to tell you several times, but I kept thinking I'd be divorced soon and I could tell you then.
00:38:25I just didn't want to complicate things between us.
00:38:27Leave your key over there.
00:38:33Hey, wait, stop.
00:38:33Maggie, look, it was a bad decision.
00:38:37I admit that.
00:38:37It was made out of fear.
00:38:38I was afraid if I told you, you wouldn't want to see me again.
00:38:40Good guess.
00:38:42Hey.
00:38:45You can't just give up on us like this.
00:38:48I love you.
00:38:49Oh, come on, Jake.
00:38:51We'll both get over our little affair.
00:38:53Is that all it meant to you?
00:38:54Oh, no.
00:38:56It mattered to me.
00:38:57But not to me?
00:38:58You may think I'm too young for you, but I work hard in my life.
00:39:02Too hard to waste time on things that aren't important to me.
00:39:06You, my work, and children matter to me.
00:39:10How diplomatic of you not to mention your wife.
00:39:13And how many secret children are there?
00:39:16I wanted children.
00:39:17More than anything in the world.
00:39:22And she was on the pill, and she never told me.
00:39:24I moved out.
00:39:26I thought that with maybe a little time and distance,
00:39:29I could learn to trust her again.
00:39:33And a year passed, and nothing changed.
00:39:35I asked her.
00:39:36I asked her for divorce.
00:39:42And then I met you.
00:39:45And you got to sleep with an older woman.
00:39:47How does that song go?
00:39:50They're grateful as hell, and they never tell.
00:39:53And the older woman even has a little money and a knack for choosing the wrong man.
00:39:57You hit the jackpot.
00:39:59You really think I care about your money?
00:40:00I make good money.
00:40:01I make good money.
00:40:06I wanted you.
00:40:07More than anything.
00:40:11And I know from experience that you can't create love where there isn't any,
00:40:13and we both know there's love here.
00:40:17Be realistic, Jake.
00:40:18If you want children, I'm wrong for you, too.
00:40:22I am realistic.
00:40:24There's lots of kids out there that need parents.
00:40:28I'd love to have some of my own,
00:40:29but maybe all I can do is be a father to a kid who needs one.
00:40:33As long as I have you.
00:40:40I seem to choose men who tell excuses beautifully.
00:40:44With Mark, it was an art form.
00:40:46I'm not Mark.
00:40:47No, I'm sorry.
00:40:51Of course you're not.
00:40:54But I'm not sure I know who you are now.
00:40:57I'm the same man I was.
00:41:00Who made a mistake.
00:41:01And I'm sorry.
00:41:05When you come back from Scotland,
00:41:07I'll be free.
00:41:10I'll be waiting for you to marry me.
00:41:17I'm going to need a little time.
00:41:21And some distance.
00:41:27You take whatever you need.
00:41:30Because I'll be here.
00:41:47Got the whole day planned.
00:41:49There are rare tartans in a shop about,
00:41:51I don't know, a mile away.
00:41:53Then we're going to go to another little shop
00:41:55that specializes in antique pewter.
00:41:57And then a very highly recommended restaurant
00:42:00where we've been asked to try the local favorite dish.
00:42:04It's a delicious sheep stomach
00:42:06stuffed with oatmeal.
00:42:08Sam, I'm sorry I can't.
00:42:10This is the worst case of jet lag I've ever had.
00:42:12Um, it's been two weeks.
00:42:14I don't think you could still have jet lag.
00:42:16Maggie, what is the deal?
00:42:18You are mooning around like a schoolgirl.
00:42:21I'm telling you, get rid of this guy.
00:42:25No.
00:42:26Before we left, Jake asked me to marry him.
00:42:28And I'm thinking about it.
00:42:30You are?
00:42:33Oh, Maggie, no wonder you didn't tell me.
00:42:36Look, if Jake wanted to be divorced,
00:42:39he would be divorced by now.
00:42:40And you know that.
00:42:42What if he's lying, you know, to get what he wants?
00:42:45What if he's on the rebound?
00:42:46I think you've had a little experience with that.
00:42:48I know.
00:42:49If I hadn't fallen for every lie Mark told me for 20 years,
00:42:52if I had any confidence in my own judgment at all,
00:42:55I'd marry Jake in a heartbeat.
00:42:57I adore Jake.
00:42:58Oh, man, there's no fool like an old fool.
00:43:02There.
00:43:03I've said it.
00:43:04Well, maybe I am a fool.
00:43:08Maybe Jake is on the rebound.
00:43:10Maybe he's so young, I look ridiculous,
00:43:13like one of those women who's had too many facelifts.
00:43:15Now you don't look like Sarah Winningham.
00:43:17She looks like a gargoyle in a Chrysler building.
00:43:20But part of me simply loves him.
00:43:24With Mark, I was always perched on the edge of disaster,
00:43:27and I knew it.
00:43:28But with Jake,
00:43:29I feel peaceful.
00:43:33I feel safe.
00:43:36I feel loved.
00:43:37Maggie, you know I love you.
00:43:39I just don't want to see you hurt.
00:43:42That makes two of us.
00:43:45Okay.
00:43:46All right.
00:43:47If he's divorced by the time we get home,
00:43:50I'll push you down the aisle myself.
00:43:53On roller skates.
00:44:02Maybe you caught a bug on the plane or something.
00:44:09I don't think I caught this on a plane.
00:44:13How's it going?
00:44:14How's it going?
00:44:17Hey.
00:44:25How you doing?
00:44:26Sorry, I'm late.
00:44:28It's okay.
00:44:28You want something?
00:44:30It's on me.
00:44:34Other seven nice TVs.
00:44:37So.
00:44:39Amy, look.
00:44:40Let's forget what happened at my house the other night, okay?
00:44:44Let's just move on.
00:44:47Just hang it on.
00:44:50It's not good for either one of us.
00:44:55Indecision, you know.
00:44:56That's what they say.
00:44:57It's the indecision that kills you.
00:45:00That's what he's saying to me.
00:45:02Come on.
00:45:05This isn't doing anybody any good.
00:45:07Including you.
00:45:09You look awful.
00:45:15I want to end your, in our, suffering.
00:45:19Jake.
00:45:23I have cancer.
00:45:27What?
00:45:28Ovarian cancer.
00:45:34The words were so ugly.
00:45:37I can hardly say them.
00:45:40Guess all those years not wanting to have a baby, this is, uh...
00:45:44My punishment.
00:45:46Don't say that.
00:45:50Amy, are you sure?
00:45:52Did you get a second opinion?
00:46:00Amy.
00:46:02I'm sorry.
00:46:03I'm so scared.
00:46:11I'm so scared, Jake.
00:46:13The garden's beautiful.
00:46:24Hi.
00:46:26Oh, please.
00:46:28How did the Scottish stand it?
00:46:30I didn't know it was August.
00:46:32Why don't you do that stuff inside?
00:46:33Aren't you cold?
00:46:34Mm-mm.
00:46:35Okay, three weeks of jet lag, and now you're a blast furnace.
00:46:38What's going on with you?
00:46:39Maybe it's because I'm pregnant.
00:46:44Maybe it is.
00:46:45Just when we're getting to the age where everybody's hot and nothing goes according to schedule.
00:46:49No, I am.
00:46:50I took the test.
00:46:53You took the test?
00:46:55Here?
00:46:55Well, it's not exactly Outer Mongolia.
00:46:59Oh, Maggie.
00:47:00Oh, my God.
00:47:02Well, all right.
00:47:03I'll be there for you, whatever you do.
00:47:05What are you going to do?
00:47:07I'm going to have a baby.
00:47:09With the man I love.
00:47:10Have you lost your mind?
00:47:13If worse comes to worse, I'll raise and feed and educate this baby all by myself.
00:47:18I'll give you this, Maggie.
00:47:20You're tough.
00:47:21I know women who would throw themselves in front of a train in your fix.
00:47:27Me, for instance.
00:47:28I'm happy.
00:47:30I feel lucky.
00:47:32Well, all right.
00:47:33Three days in London, and then we'll go home, and we'll see how lucky you are.
00:47:38But I'm there for you.
00:47:39I'm there for you, whatever you do.
00:47:41Okay, I got it.
00:47:50I got it.
00:47:51I got it.
00:47:53Hello?
00:47:58Mark?
00:47:59You're Mark.
00:48:00What are you doing here?
00:48:02What's he doing in London?
00:48:03I don't know.
00:48:21I'll just have kale and milk tea, please.
00:48:23Yeah.
00:48:23All right, Mark.
00:48:29What's this all about?
00:48:30Well, I was going to be in London to see a client, and I called your store.
00:48:33They said you were here.
00:48:35I couldn't pass up an opportunity to see you.
00:48:43You look good, Maggie.
00:48:51We had 25 good years together, you and I.
00:48:5422.
00:48:55And that famous charm is wasted on me.
00:48:58Okay.
00:48:59Okay.
00:49:00I understand why you're angry, and I don't blame you.
00:49:03But you have to admit, we had a good life, you and I.
00:49:07And the kids.
00:49:10God, Maggie, I wish I had that back.
00:49:11You mean, you had a great life.
00:49:16I didn't have a life.
00:49:18The only time I was really happy was when I had that great little design job when we first got married.
00:49:22And you made me quit that.
00:49:24When I had the children, I became invisible to you.
00:49:27So don't tell me what a wonderful life we had.
00:49:30I was there.
00:49:31Okay, Maggie.
00:49:32You're right.
00:49:32I was wrong.
00:49:34I was stupid.
00:49:34I was unappreciative.
00:49:36All right?
00:49:38I never meant to hurt you.
00:49:40You never meant to hurt me.
00:49:43You cheated on me.
00:49:44You dumped me in the most cold-hearted manner.
00:49:46You would only speak to me through attorneys for three years.
00:49:49And now, out of nowhere, you show up in London to tell me that you're sorry?
00:49:53What happened?
00:49:53Did Jennifer leave you?
00:49:54Oh, my God.
00:50:07She did, didn't she?
00:50:09She left you?
00:50:11Well, yeah.
00:50:14She started seeing this other guy about six months ago.
00:50:17I didn't know anything about it until she left me.
00:50:20It hurts, doesn't it?
00:50:23Yeah.
00:50:26It made me realize how much I lost when I lost you.
00:50:30Maggie.
00:50:31Maggie, I want to give it another shot.
00:50:32I want our kids to have their mother back.
00:50:34You lied to me, Mark.
00:50:38You took away all my trust.
00:50:40Even the trust I had in myself.
00:50:42I'll try to forgive you for that, but I will never make the mistake of forgetting it.
00:50:47And as for Hannah and Peter, they are and will always be my children.
00:50:51I don't need to be married to you to be their mother.
00:50:53You might want to think it over.
00:50:59I mean, you don't want to end up alone now, do you?
00:51:01And what is it exactly that makes you think that I'm alone?
00:51:08You can't be serious.
00:51:11Only if you take marriage seriously.
00:51:13Seriously.
00:51:37Hello.
00:51:38Hello.
00:51:43Twelve hours can't do anybody any good on a plane, but you're in a first class.
00:51:57But I really wanted to see you.
00:51:59I'm sorry I couldn't be there to pick you up.
00:52:02I had something I couldn't get out of you.
00:52:05You look great.
00:52:10So healthy.
00:52:13I think.
00:52:16Jake.
00:52:16Mm-hmm.
00:52:17What are you doing?
00:52:24Tell me again.
00:52:25How was Scotland?
00:52:28Well, you know.
00:52:30It was cold.
00:52:34Cold.
00:52:36Imagine that.
00:52:38In August.
00:52:41It's like a different world.
00:52:45It's like one of those things you could only dream about.
00:52:49One of those things you could hardly think at all.
00:52:52When it's been so hot over here, so...
00:52:56It's really hot.
00:53:02Cold, do you say?
00:53:05Freezing.
00:53:05I must have felt nice.
00:53:09I must have felt nice.
00:53:12To be so cold and honest.
00:53:15Well, I...
00:53:15I didn't feel all that cold.
00:53:19Because...
00:53:19I...
00:53:28I didn't feel all that cold.
00:53:29Jake, I don't want to talk anymore.
00:53:59I don't want to talk anymore.
00:54:29I don't want to talk anymore.
00:54:59I love warm summer evenings out here.
00:55:11I love the trees.
00:55:15I love the flowers.
00:55:16I love this house.
00:55:17I love my life.
00:55:20But most of all, I love you.
00:55:21I'm the happiest woman in the world.
00:55:26It's probably dangerous to be this happy.
00:55:33Jake, I have something to tell you.
00:55:37What's wrong?
00:55:45Amy's got cancer.
00:55:49It's ovarian cancer.
00:55:54Oh, Jake, I'm so sorry.
00:55:55Is she going to be all right?
00:55:59I don't know.
00:56:01They don't know.
00:56:02You know, the doctors never really know.
00:56:11Well, this changes things, doesn't it?
00:56:14Maggie, listen.
00:56:22Once the treatments are over, the cancer's in remission, we can get married then.
00:56:29I promise.
00:56:29But I can't turn my back on her now.
00:56:35No, of course you can't.
00:56:39I just told you I wanted to marry you.
00:56:41I know, Jake.
00:56:45And I believe you.
00:56:48But everybody knows that cancer can come back.
00:56:52In a week, in a year, who knows?
00:56:54When is Amy going to feel strong enough to let you go?
00:56:57And are you going to feel safe enough to leave her?
00:57:04An honorable man wouldn't divorce Amy now.
00:57:08And you're an honorable man.
00:57:12If you weren't, I wouldn't love you as much as I do.
00:57:28You know, I'm this close to having everything I ever wanted in my life.
00:57:35Maggie.
00:57:35Let's just take it a day at a time, okay?
00:57:45Are you cold?
00:57:46Uh-uh.
00:57:49Amy, you gotta eat.
00:57:53I got all these groceries for you.
00:57:55Yeah, I had a big lunch today.
00:57:59Maybe later, okay?
00:58:00It's not true.
00:58:07She tries to act like everything is okay.
00:58:09But it's not.
00:58:22Amy.
00:58:24I'm sorry I can't stay.
00:58:25Amy, I've got a hard day tomorrow.
00:58:29Okay?
00:58:29Mm-hmm.
00:58:33It's too bad.
00:58:35What your wife has tomorrow is chemotherapy.
00:58:44I'll be fine on Thursday.
00:58:45If you need anything, just page me.
00:58:49Good night, Amy.
00:58:52Good night, Jake.
00:58:53Gwen.
00:58:53I'm sorry I didn't want to wake you.
00:59:19I wasn't asleep.
00:59:21How is she?
00:59:26They give her poison.
00:59:30Carefully calculated doses of poison.
00:59:42I thought you were just going for their groceries.
00:59:45You've gone a long time.
00:59:47I don't have any clean shirts here.
00:59:48I'm going to leave early and go home.
00:59:53Stop by my house on the way to work.
01:00:06I like this turquoise color, but this is hardly Key West,
01:00:11though it's hot enough to be.
01:00:12This is killing me, Sam.
01:00:20But I don't think he could bear it if I told him about the baby now.
01:00:23He's suffering so much already.
01:00:26Staying with me instead of going back to Amy?
01:00:29Telling him would only make it worse for him.
01:00:31Well, it's not the kind of secret you can keep forever.
01:00:36You were right.
01:00:37I was a fool to get involved.
01:00:39No, I was wrong.
01:00:41Everything I said was wrong.
01:00:45And my godchild is going to be gorgeous.
01:00:47Suddenly, everything seems like a bad dream.
01:00:54I can't believe this is happening.
01:00:56I can't believe this is real.
01:01:00I know the feeling.
01:01:02When they told me Angus had been killed,
01:01:05we had planned this great trip to Paris,
01:01:08and then he was dead.
01:01:09He was gone.
01:01:10Just like that.
01:01:11And all the love and brilliance and charm and potential.
01:01:18I was lost forever.
01:01:21Love meant nothing to whatever it is that causes planes to crash.
01:01:25And I was just sure that I had died with him.
01:01:28And then one day, I was just dragging myself over
01:01:32to have this argument with the contractor.
01:01:34And it was the wildest thing.
01:01:38Suddenly, I just felt Angus with me.
01:01:42I could feel his presence.
01:01:44You know, he was right there.
01:01:46And he was telling me what to say.
01:01:48You know, just like he'd always done.
01:01:50And this hard knot that I'd been carrying around in my chest
01:01:54for the longest time, it just dissolved.
01:01:58Love had conquered all, even death.
01:02:00I know you really love Jake.
01:02:05Don't give up.
01:02:06Something's bound to happen.
01:02:15You know, Angus really loved this blue.
01:02:24You just think positively and stay strong.
01:02:27Test results are good.
01:02:29When you feel better, you and Jake can adopt a child.
01:02:32I've lost Jake.
01:02:34You haven't lost him.
01:02:35He's still your husband.
01:02:36Mother, we don't even live together.
01:02:40He hasn't gotten the divorce.
01:02:42Comes by all the time.
01:02:45Don't you see, Amy?
01:02:47He still loves you.
01:02:49Oh, my God!
01:02:49Mother, watch out!
01:02:50Let's go!
01:02:51Oh, my God!
01:02:54No!
01:02:54No!
01:02:54No!
01:02:54No!
01:02:54No!
01:02:54No!

01:02:55No!
01:02:56No!
01:02:56No!
01:02:57No!
01:02:58No!
01:02:59No!
01:03:00No!
01:03:01No!
01:03:02No!
01:03:02No!
01:03:03No!
01:03:03No!
01:03:04No!
01:03:04No!
01:03:05No!
01:03:06No!
01:03:06No!
01:03:07No!
01:03:07No!
01:03:08No!
01:03:08No!
01:03:09No!
01:03:09No!
01:03:10No!
01:03:10No!
01:03:11No!
01:03:11No!
01:03:12No!
01:03:12No!
01:03:13No!
01:03:13No!
01:03:14No!
01:03:14No!
01:03:15No!
01:03:15No!
01:03:16No!
01:03:16No!
01:03:17No!
01:03:18No!
01:03:18No!
01:03:19No!
01:03:19No!
01:03:20No!
01:03:20No!
01:03:21No!
01:03:21No!
01:03:22No!
01:03:22No!
01:03:23No!
01:03:23No!
01:03:24No!
01:03:24No!
01:03:25No!
01:03:25No!
01:03:26No!
01:03:26No!
01:03:27No!
01:03:27I didn't know if I should come here or not.
01:03:40I thought you'd like some clean clothes.
01:03:49Her mother didn't make it.
01:03:52I'm sorry.
01:03:57Amy.
01:04:05Amy's alone in the world now, you know.
01:04:13As if she hadn't had enough rotten things happen to her.
01:04:16I'm the one she's stuck with.
01:04:19You're too hard on yourself.
01:04:21You'll do the right thing.
01:04:24I'm losing track of what that is.
01:04:27Your place is with Amy now.
01:04:31We both know that.
01:04:34Even if you were with me, you wouldn't be with me.
01:04:41Do what you have to do, Jake.
01:04:44I release you from your promise.
01:04:45I'm going to see you from your place.
01:04:47Go, right there.
01:04:49Yes.
01:04:50Let's go.
01:05:20Let's go.
01:05:50Let's go.
01:06:20His father's name is Jake.
01:06:23No.
01:06:25No, there's been a complication.
01:06:27No, not with me, Peter.
01:06:28With the situation.
01:06:30Hannah, would you tell Peter to calm down?
01:06:32I'm going to explain it all when you get here.
01:06:34Yes.
01:06:38Yes, I do.
01:06:40I love him very much.
01:06:43Here, sit over.
01:06:45Oh.
01:06:48Is that okay?
01:06:49Yeah.
01:06:49Thanks for bringing me here, Jake.
01:06:57You're my wife, Amy.
01:07:00I've got some of the organic tea you like.
01:07:03Do you want some?
01:07:03Jake.
01:07:13Hi.
01:07:13Hi.
01:07:13What are you doing here?
01:07:29I'm sorry to show up unannounced.
01:07:30I would have called, but the battery and the cell phone died.
01:07:34I was out this way.
01:07:35I was halfway to the end, actually, when I realized I didn't have my plans with me.
01:07:38I thought maybe I could borrow yours.
01:07:40You still have a set at the house?
01:07:44Sure.
01:07:46They're inside.
01:07:49I'll just have to go inside.
01:07:52I don't think that's right.
01:07:53No, it's all right.
01:07:59Maggie, are you pregnant?
01:08:06Is it ours?
01:08:07Yes.
01:08:10Why didn't you tell me?
01:08:16Why didn't you?
01:08:18I was going to tell you when I came home, but Amy was sick, and I thought you'd only suffer
01:08:23more knowing, and then when her mother died, I couldn't tell you.
01:08:26I didn't want to make it worse for you.
01:08:28I wanted to tell you so much, Jake.
01:08:31I wanted to share this baby with you, but you were already committed, and I thought if
01:08:37I told you it would just tear you apart, so I kept waiting for you to find the right
01:08:41moment.
01:08:41I guess this is it, huh?
01:08:45I guess it is.
01:08:49You didn't have to protect me, you know.
01:08:53I understand, though.
01:08:58So, how are you?
01:09:00Everything okay?
01:09:00Mm-hmm.
01:09:01We're fine.
01:09:02Look.
01:09:04I've got...
01:09:06That's his head.
01:09:08Those are his arms.
01:09:10His legs.
01:09:10Him?
01:09:11Mm-hmm.
01:09:12It's a boy.
01:09:13Yes.
01:09:14He's going to be here in person in four months.
01:09:17April 15th, they say.
01:09:18Can I keep this?
01:09:23You know...
01:09:24Depending on how Amy is, uh, you know what?
01:09:28Maybe I can...
01:09:34I'm sorry.
01:09:39You know I never meant for things to turn out this way.
01:09:42But I'll be a good father to the baby.
01:09:49I promise you that.
01:09:51I'll come over every chance I get.
01:09:53No, Jake.
01:09:53I don't want to see you.
01:09:56Why?
01:09:57It just makes it harder for me.
01:09:59I've had a lot of time to think about this.
01:10:02I knew from the start that I might have to raise this baby on my own, and that's what
01:10:05I'm going to do.
01:10:07So, of course I want you to see him.
01:10:09I want you to be with him, but...
01:10:11Later.
01:10:13You have to give me some time.
01:10:26I guess you better get that.
01:10:41You have to give me some time.
01:10:43I should have...
01:10:43You have to give me some time.
01:10:44I think you better get that.
01:10:44You better get that.
01:10:46You'll be with him.
01:10:46You better get that.
01:10:47What are you doing here?
01:11:07I had to make my godchild come early.
01:11:09Oh, what a good idea.
01:11:12I'd forgotten how uncomfortable this gets.
01:11:14Yeah.
01:11:17You know, sometimes late at night, I'm all alone, and I feel my baby kicking.
01:11:24I'm ashamed of it, but I catch myself wishing that Amy would just...
01:11:30Oh, my God.
01:11:32Just die.
01:11:35Maggie, what Jake is going through is going to change him forever.
01:11:39He's not going to be the same person you knew.
01:11:41You've got to let him go.
01:11:43I know.
01:11:43I read someplace that breaking up should be like breaking a bone.
01:11:47Neat and quick, so it starts to heal.
01:11:50This is what I did.
01:11:53It's easier this way.
01:11:56Yeah.
01:11:57I can see that.
01:12:00Whoa, honey, we've got to go.
01:12:01Come on, their plane is landing.
01:12:03Sam, I'm not ready.
01:12:04Oh, you're as ready as you'll ever be.
01:12:05Come on, let's go.
01:12:06Oh, I don't think so.
01:12:07The kids will be home any minute.
01:12:08Hey, hi.
01:12:20Hey, Sam.
01:12:22How you doing?
01:12:23Hey, Sam.
01:12:24Where's Mom?
01:12:26You know?
01:12:28Holy mackerel.
01:12:30Oh, wow.
01:12:33Wow, you look great.
01:12:35I can't wait to meet Jake.
01:12:38Is he here?
01:12:40No.
01:12:41No, he's at home.
01:12:44With his wife.
01:12:48Oh.
01:12:49Wow.
01:12:51This really is complicated, isn't it?
01:12:52When you called to say that you were
01:12:55like this,
01:12:57I just assumed that
01:12:58what's Dad going to say
01:13:01when he hears about this?
01:13:03Peter, what your father thinks of my life
01:13:05is irrelevant to me.
01:13:06I hope it is to you, too.
01:13:08He left you for that god-awful Jennifer.
01:13:09I'd say it's irrelevant to me.
01:13:11Good girl.
01:13:13I just can't approve of this.
01:13:15Well, proof once again
01:13:23that girls mature faster than boys.
01:13:25Wait till he finds out
01:13:26he's sleeping in the nursery.
01:13:32Will I ever meet Jake?
01:13:34Oh, I wouldn't count on it, honey.
01:13:36I don't know.
01:14:06You like the blue?
01:14:31I mixed it myself.
01:14:32I call it Angus blue.
01:14:33And I've repeated it
01:14:35over here in the tiles
01:14:36and the fountain.
01:14:37This is such a huge decorating job.
01:14:39I'm not doing anything else
01:14:40except maybe a Christmas tree
01:14:41for a couple of years now.
01:14:44Oh, you did see
01:14:45the Eastwoods
01:14:46in the lounge in there?
01:14:47Yeah.
01:14:48Well, it's kind of exciting.
01:14:50He was sitting next to that writer
01:14:52from here.
01:14:52What's his name?
01:14:54Sam can shake hands
01:14:55until the world is level.
01:14:57And she's got a hot date
01:14:58with that young writer
01:14:59whose name she pretends
01:15:00to keep forgetting.
01:15:01Oh, Hannah, I'm exhausted.
01:15:05Let's go home, okay?
01:15:07Okay, Mom.
01:15:09Okay.
01:15:10Dr. Chia, it's oncology.
01:15:15Dr. Chia, it's oncology.
01:15:23Jake.
01:15:26I'm sorry.
01:15:27Do we know you?
01:15:29I'm Maggie Sorrell.
01:15:31I designed a couple projects
01:15:32with your husband.
01:15:34I'm Amy.
01:15:35I guess you're close.
01:15:39Yes.
01:15:40I need a note.
01:15:41And everything's going fine.
01:15:46I don't want to be late.
01:15:47Nice to meet you, Amy.
01:15:50Jake.
01:15:57So, could you outline
01:15:58all the letters
01:15:59for a little shade?
01:16:01Hi.
01:16:01Hi.
01:16:05Well, it's mine.
01:16:07All mine.
01:16:09Atta girl.
01:16:11I've got something for you.
01:16:13Hmm.
01:16:15Oh, that's beautiful.
01:16:18Uh-huh.
01:16:19Now, bread that you may
01:16:21always have plenty,
01:16:22salt for the spice in life,
01:16:24and wine that you will find
01:16:25great happiness
01:16:26in your new business.
01:16:28It's gorgeous.
01:16:29You know, this is a great
01:16:30marketing idea.
01:16:31You should give a basket
01:16:32just like this
01:16:33to every home you design.
01:16:34Well, nice of you
01:16:35to add that to my overhead
01:16:35now that I've brought you out.
01:16:37Well, you know,
01:16:37I'm just trying
01:16:38to keep you in business.
01:16:39Okay, come on in
01:16:40for just a second.
01:16:41I'm just finishing up
01:16:42the menus with Chef Louis,
01:16:44Major Prima Donna,
01:16:46and then we'll head on
01:16:47over to the Ridgely's.
01:16:48Sam?
01:16:50I don't think
01:16:50we're going to the Ridgely's.
01:16:52You and I are going
01:16:53to the hospital.
01:16:53Now?
01:16:54Now.
01:16:56Come on.
01:16:57Come here.
01:16:57Oh, isn't he gorgeous?
01:17:06Oh, he looks just like
01:17:07old Mr. Ridgely.
01:17:09I was going to say Gandhi,
01:17:10but, you know,
01:17:11it's about the same.
01:17:12Look at him.
01:17:15Hmm.
01:17:16That's not who you look like.
01:17:17You know who you look like,
01:17:21don't you?
01:17:29Jake, hi.
01:17:31Alice, how's it going?
01:17:32It's great.
01:17:33Came to get curtain hooks.
01:17:35Barely finished
01:17:35that crib bumper
01:17:36and the curtains
01:17:37for Maggie's nursery
01:17:37in time.
01:17:38Isn't it the truth?
01:17:40What do you mean?
01:17:43I don't know.
01:17:43You don't know.
01:17:45Oh, it's a boy.
01:17:46Seven pounds,
01:17:4714 ounces,
01:17:4821 inches
01:17:49of screaming lung power.
01:17:53When?
01:17:55Well, let's see.
01:17:56Tuesday?
01:17:57Yeah, that's right.
01:17:58The 16th.
01:17:58It was early in the evening,
01:18:006 o'clock, I think.
01:18:02It's Maggie.
01:18:03She's all right?
01:18:04Yeah, she's a little shaky
01:18:05for a couple of days,
01:18:05but she's home now,
01:18:06and all this is terrible
01:18:09for you and Maggie.
01:18:10But it's worse for that baby.
01:18:12You know, I know Maggie
01:18:13will want you to see him
01:18:14as often as you want.
01:18:15and just give her
01:18:15a little time.
01:18:17You take care of him.
01:18:19His name.
01:18:21What's his name?
01:18:25Sam.
01:18:26She called the baby Sam.
01:18:40Come on, Sandy.
01:18:41Yeah.
01:18:43Come on.
01:18:45Hmm?
01:18:46It's story time.
01:18:47Yeah?
01:18:49Come on.
01:18:54Come on.
01:19:01This is Madam Butterfly, Sam.
01:19:03It's the story of a woman
01:19:06who falls in love with a man.
01:19:09And she has his baby.
01:19:13But he marries another woman.
01:19:16So she...
01:19:18Hmm.
01:19:19Well,
01:19:21let's just say
01:19:23this isn't Cinderella.
01:19:27Well,
01:19:28your daddy could explain
01:19:29this a lot better
01:19:29if he was here.
01:19:32Oh, bless you.
01:19:34Oh, bless you.
01:19:35Oh, bless you.
01:19:35She's the one
01:19:44you had the affair with.
01:19:48That's when you and I
01:19:48were split up, Amy.
01:19:52I didn't consider it an affair.
01:19:54Maybe I was wrong about that,
01:19:56but I didn't.
01:19:56You're still my husband, Jake.
01:20:01I'm still here, Amy.
01:20:03That's not what I meant.
01:20:05There's a little of my mother's
01:20:07insurance money left.
01:20:09That'll go to you.
01:20:11Maybe after the bills,
01:20:13there'll be something left
01:20:14for your son.
01:20:15Don't talk like that.
01:20:18I'm not afraid of it anymore, Jake.
01:20:21In fact,
01:20:22it feels like a relief.
01:20:23And I like the idea
01:20:26that I could do something
01:20:27for your baby.
01:20:29It feels right.
01:20:32I don't know what to say to that.
01:20:34There's nothing
01:20:35to say now.
01:20:38Not anymore.
01:20:42I didn't trust myself
01:20:44not to be like my mother.
01:20:46And it hurt so bad
01:20:48to never satisfy her.
01:20:53And I didn't trust
01:20:55that I wouldn't do that
01:20:56to another helpless
01:20:57child.
01:21:02I wish you'd have told me
01:21:03you felt like that.
01:21:11Maybe we could have
01:21:12worked things out.
01:21:13I didn't understand it then.
01:21:22It's too late now.
01:21:29Don't wait too long
01:21:30after I'm gone, Jake.
01:21:33For your baby's sake.
01:21:35Too much has happened,
01:21:40Amy.
01:21:42Too much has changed.
01:21:44For her.
01:21:45Or for you.
01:21:46For you.
01:21:46What are you doing there?
01:22:05Hmm?
01:22:06Look at that.
01:22:10Oh, I love you.
01:22:11Oh, Jake.
01:22:33I'm so sorry.
01:22:36Jake.
01:22:36I'm so sorry.
01:22:37Jake.
01:22:37I'm so sorry.
01:22:41Haven't you seen him do that?
01:22:48He'll look at you
01:22:48in a certain way
01:22:49and he looks just like Jake.
01:22:54Speaking of Jake,
01:22:57Alice heard he took off
01:22:58a few weeks ago.
01:23:00Apparently,
01:23:01he put his things
01:23:02in storage,
01:23:03let the lease on the house
01:23:04go and just disappeared.
01:23:06I don't think he's coming back,
01:23:10Maggie.
01:23:10I know.
01:23:11I just didn't want to know.
01:23:21That print's all wrong.
01:23:24Did I tell you
01:23:24my November occupancy
01:23:26was 95%?
01:23:28Yes, you did.
01:23:29And I did not pick this print.
01:23:31The client did.
01:23:32I'm going to lunch.
01:23:34See you, Alice.
01:23:42I want you to taste
01:23:43this dressing
01:23:44that my chef
01:23:45is making for Christmas.
01:23:47I think the man
01:23:48needs a raise
01:23:49or some other
01:23:50employee benefit,
01:23:51if you know what I mean.
01:23:53Mmm.
01:23:54Don't do that, Sam.
01:23:55What do you mean?
01:23:56I think it's delicious.
01:23:58Little Sam
01:23:58put a tape measure
01:23:59in his mouth.
01:24:09Now, see?
01:24:10There you go.
01:24:11This is why
01:24:12I didn't want you
01:24:12to name that match with me.
01:24:13Because look at
01:24:14the confusion it causes.
01:24:16You say the name Sam
01:24:17and everybody
01:24:18turns around.
01:24:20And when you can walk,
01:24:20just think how nuts
01:24:21it's going to drive us.
01:24:22We'll leave the two of you.
01:24:31It's all right, Sam.
01:24:32You can stay.
01:24:35I think he's old enough
01:24:36to hear this.
01:24:38Of course.
01:24:39What was I thinking?
01:24:40Sam looks good.
01:24:54She's happy.
01:24:56Ian's doing really well
01:24:57and she bought out
01:24:57her investors.
01:24:59No, I meant that, Sam.
01:25:01Of course.
01:25:03Well, he's happy, too.
01:25:06He's healthy and smart.
01:25:08He's a little clown.
01:25:09I take him with me
01:25:12most of the time.
01:25:14I'd like to hold him.
01:25:16All right.
01:25:32Hey, Sam.
01:25:35I'm your dad.
01:25:35I play opera for him.
01:25:40I try to tell him
01:25:41the stories.
01:25:42But he likes
01:25:43his own books better.
01:25:44Ducks and chicks, mostly.
01:25:49Look at him.
01:25:52He's okay.
01:25:53He's perfect.
01:25:54Yeah?
01:25:56God, look what you did.
01:25:58My pleasure.
01:25:59Except for those
01:26:00last eight hours.
01:26:01I would have been
01:26:04there, Maggie.
01:26:04I'm sorry.
01:26:08I know I'm taking
01:26:08my chances coming here
01:26:09when you told me
01:26:10to stay away,
01:26:10but the only thing
01:26:12that kept me going
01:26:13all that time
01:26:13was thinking that
01:26:14maybe you told me
01:26:15to stay away
01:26:15just to protect yourself.
01:26:19Is it right?
01:26:22You can tell me
01:26:23the truth.
01:26:23I can take it,
01:26:24but I need to know.
01:26:27You're right.
01:26:28I had to go away, Maggie.
01:26:33I had to think.
01:26:35I had to be sure
01:26:36I wasn't acting
01:26:36out of loneliness
01:26:38or guilt
01:26:38or grief.
01:26:41After all you've been through,
01:26:42I thought,
01:26:42you deserve that.
01:26:47Maybe he's not old enough
01:26:48to hear this.
01:26:50Hear what?
01:26:52I don't know
01:26:53how healthy it is
01:26:53for a child
01:26:54to hear his father
01:26:54propose to his mother.
01:26:55Well, he won't
01:26:59remember anything.
01:27:02Just in case.
01:27:04Hey, buddy.
01:27:06Sam.
01:27:09In the future,
01:27:09I will try
01:27:10to set a better example.
