TVTranscript
00:15I started dancing at nine years old.
00:19It started with a free after-school ballet class
00:21and quickly became my obsession.
00:27My greatest advantage as a dancer was my tolerance for pain.
00:31It was a daily reality in my life already
00:34and a small price to pay for transcendence.
00:38You learn to withstand the pressure of 12 times your weight
00:42balanced on the tips of your toes,
00:44to create the illusion of walking on air,
00:47to maintain that graceful, effortless performance,
00:50even when things feel almost unbearable.
01:04You sleep okay, honey?
01:06Not really.
01:09Did you crash on the couch?
01:11No, guest room.
01:13I had meetings running late.
01:15I didn't want to wake you.
01:24Can you help me with this?
01:26Yeah.
01:33I'm going to be done around six
01:34if you want to eat dinner together.
01:36I have meetings until late,
01:39so do it without me.
01:41There.
01:45First day jitters have me a little bit nauseous.
01:48Over the volunteer thing?
01:54I'm creative consultants to the entire production.
01:57Yeah.
01:59Weighing in on set design,
02:01costumes,
02:02sitting in the rehearsals.
02:04Mm-hmm.
02:08You think investments are tricky?
02:10Try getting an experimental ballet on its feet.
02:13Mm-hmm.
02:22Yes, you don't?
02:23An entire liter in two days?
02:25I have enough shit to deal with
02:27without you hammering me.
02:31Just drop it, please.
02:39All I'm asking for is time.
02:42Just one hour
02:43with that therapist that I mentioned.
02:45Sure.
02:46Okay.
02:47I'll try to get something on the books.
02:48I really need to get this over to Kit
02:50before the meeting starts.
02:53Let me know when you're ready to talk.
02:54Fuck.
02:55Fuck.
04:06Thank you so much for giving him a ride.
04:08Hi.
04:08Our sob is in the shop for the fourth time this year.
04:11Oh.
04:12Should be back today sometime.
04:13How many coffees have you had this morning?
04:15Four, maybe five.
04:17But I've been up since 5 a.m.
04:18I wrote two chapters this week.
04:19Did you sign up for the writer's workshop?
04:21Yeah, and so far it's just six retired boomers
04:23of the South Pass Public Library,
04:25but it gives me some structures.
04:27I love it.
04:27That is great.
04:28You look amazing.
04:29Really?
04:29Yeah, this is very professional.
04:31Knock on wood, maybe I can spin it
04:33into something more permanent,
04:35you know, consult on a few other shows.
04:37Great, great.
04:38They pay you?
04:39I mean, possibly.
04:40I don't know.
04:40I just, I don't know what's going to happen there.
04:43I got to be ready.
04:44Ready for what?
04:45I don't know, anything.
04:48You and Robert still?
04:50I mean, I've gotten a few full sentences
04:53out of him here and there, but...
04:55Well, look, it's only been a few weeks, right,
04:57since the party,
04:58so things might still be a little raw.
05:00Mm-hmm.
05:01He'll come around.
05:03Arkea, let the games of Mount Olympus begin.
05:06Hi, Howard.
05:07Here you go.
05:08Hi, Nancy.
05:09Okay, have fun.
05:18Have fun, you guys.
05:20In all my years of friendship with Mary,
05:23I hadn't spent any time alone with her husband.
05:26I hadn't missed much.
05:28Oh, you know what?
05:30I'm just going to add my phone,
05:31just so that I've got this great Stravinsky...
05:33I loved Mary.
05:34I just wasn't in the headspace
05:36to babysit anyone's underemployed husband.
05:48Thank you, Bonnie.
05:50Thank you, dancers, musicians,
05:52technical artists,
05:53and all of our magnificent crew.
05:55Now, before we dive into rehearsal,
05:58I want you to take a moment,
06:00turn to the person next to you,
06:01and introduce yourselves.
06:04Helga, do you a costume designer?
06:05Yes, I'm Nancy Hennessy.
06:07I loved your work on waves last season.
06:09It was really beautiful.
06:10For the next eight weeks until opening night,
06:13this is your family.
06:15Now, before we wrap this up,
06:17there's one person I'd like to introduce,
06:20Metro Ballet board member
06:21and creative consultant for this show,
06:23Nancy Hennessy.
06:26Thanks, Phil.
06:28Ariadne is the company's most complex ballet yet,
06:32which is appropriate for the complex times
06:34that we're living in,
06:35and I'm so happy to be on this journey with all of you.
06:38And I'd like to introduce Howard Simpson,
06:41a classics scholar and...
06:43And a close friend.
06:44And friend,
06:45whose program notes will provide the audience
06:47with essential historical context.
06:51Now, when Phil recruited me for this project,
06:54I paused by Herculaneum papyri translation sabbatical.
06:58As you may or may not know,
07:00Ariadne derives from the Greek
07:02for most holy or most pure.
07:05Thank you, David.
07:07Howard.
07:07All right, thank you so much.
07:08Let's get to work, everybody.
07:11Nice to meet you and your studio.
07:15Hey, Nancy.
07:16Um, do you know what the lunch situation is?
07:19Oh, I don't.
07:20No, sorry.
07:23Hey, Phil.
07:24Excuse me?
07:25I'd love your opinion on something.
07:27I was just thinking about the, um,
07:28color palette for the costumes.
07:30I know that in your more recent work,
07:32you've used a more monochromatic black leotard look,
07:35but I thought we could do something
07:36a little more innovative this year.
07:39Interesting.
07:39So I've been researching textiles
07:41with the ability to reflect light and color,
07:45even take projections.
07:47I was thinking maybe I could elevate the look of the show.
07:50Why don't you make me a lookbook
07:51and we'll take it from there.
07:52Okay, great.
07:53Just give me a few days.
07:54Okay.
08:08It had been 25 years
08:09since I stepped foot in a dance studio.
08:15Returning to ballet required
08:17all of my emotional reserves.
08:21Memories lingered in rehearsal rooms.
08:25Young, pliant bodies.
08:27The expanse of the stage.
08:35It was harder than I thought it would be.
08:41I have seen it with Robert's group of friends before.
08:44One minute, Alana Berkoff is showing off
08:46her new stack of Cartier bracelets,
08:48and the next she is selling them for food.
08:51Okay, I need you to breathe.
08:53Honestly.
08:54Like, really take a breath.
08:56I think you're jumping to conclusions.
08:59From where I'm sitting,
09:01the drinking, the fighting with his family,
09:03that is, that's more of a midlife crisis
09:06than divorce.
09:07Wealthy families divide assets for so many reasons.
09:11You just have to talk to him about it.
09:13Every time I see him passed out on the couch,
09:17or...
09:22Every time I find an empty bottle,
09:24it's like my childhood nightmare
09:26playing on a loop.
09:28Like, part of me thinks
09:29we will get through anything, right?
09:32But then the louder part of me is like,
09:34fuck it.
09:35If you can't control your life,
09:36then you might as well just...
09:40I don't know.
09:42Nancy, can I give you some real advice?
10:11You're right.
10:15I'm just...
10:16I'm spinning.
10:19It's ironic that we're talking about this right now.
10:22I just commissioned this piece of art
10:23for our anniversary.
10:26If we make it that far.
10:27Oh my God,
10:28you are going to make it that far.
10:30Those vows are till death do you part.
10:33He's not going anywhere.
10:49I love the piece you did with Georgia Leonard.
10:53I do a lot of business with Georgia.
10:56Did she tell you she commissioned a portrait of her dogs?
11:04I was hoping we could do something
11:07a little less safe.
11:12I haven't stopped looking at this piece.
11:14Who is she?
11:16A poet.
11:18We made it a party.
11:20Did you sleep together?
11:22She left an impression.
11:24Please,
11:25take a seat.
11:39It's sexier.
11:42Well, you can see my...
11:44my scars.
11:46Why not?
11:47I like them.
11:49They're a part of you.
11:50They tell your story.
11:52A story that I'd like to forget.
11:55I thought you said you wanted...
11:58less safe.
11:59Well, I see them every day.
12:01I look in the mirror.
12:02I don't think I need to capture them for posterity.
12:05So then you do want a safe.
12:08I'm not sure what I want anymore.
12:14Go ahead.
12:16We'll reset when you're done.
12:18Excuse me.
12:24The messages from Scott were frightening enough.
12:27What was even worse was that I had asked for them.
12:30That there was something inside me
12:32that made me go back and touch that flame.
12:36Even though it had burned me so badly.
12:39Everything okay?
12:42Yeah.
12:46Um...
12:50I'm ready.
12:53I'm ready.
13:22I think you're looking for this.
13:25I saw your notebook was filling up.
13:28It's nothing much.
13:29Thanks, Howard.
13:33Does he still call you David?
13:34He's called me Louise twice this week.
13:36He calls me something different every time.
13:41It's what you'd expect from a champion snowblower like that.
13:44What?
13:44Wait, Phil?
13:46I think all that devil's dandruff is perforated his brain.
13:52Anyway, glad you like it.
13:55Great, everyone.
13:56Let's bring it in.
13:57Here we go.
14:48I wondered if maybe I was wrong about Howard.
14:51If my dismissiveness had more to do with me than anything about him.
15:18It started to feel inevitable that we would forge our own friendship.
15:36There it is.
15:37Okay, that's good everyone.
15:39Let's call for the day.
15:42Wow, half day rehearsal.
15:44I hardly know what to do with myself.
15:45I know, I've got four hours to kill before I pick up the girls.
15:50Does it make me a bad father if I want to catch the 35mm print of red shoes?
15:56You're welcome to join.
15:57Oh, this dripped on me.
15:59I'm just going to go clean it off.
16:00Okay, go ahead.
16:01I'll wait.
16:02Okay.
16:03Hey, Phil.
16:04Great rehearsal.
16:05See you tomorrow, Louise.
16:06It's Nancy.
16:52What's wrong?
16:53It's nothing.
16:55Nancy, it's okay.
16:56You can tell me.
16:58Just...
16:59Phil threw away this lookbook that I made.
17:03It's pathetic that I thought he cared about my ideas as much as he cares about my money.
17:08That gold-plated prick wouldn't have a job without your money.
17:12It's not even my money, it's Robert's.
17:14You don't really believe that?
17:15Well, his family never misses an opportunity to remind me.
17:20I don't know how all that money stuff works.
17:23My father was confined to a wheelchair with MS.
17:26We were always strapped.
17:28I would get so resentful.
17:29And he would say,
17:32people like us have something those people will never have.
17:37Pride of accomplishment.
17:39The fact that you made it from Bakersfield to become a creative consultant of a world-renowned ballet company,
17:47that's an enviable achievement.
17:50Robert calls it my volunteer thing.
17:53All due respect, your husband is a trust fund philistine.
17:57What you've done is impressive.
18:01Thanks for that.
18:04What time is that movie?
18:09Is that the point?
18:10Yes.
18:11Vicky chose obsession over all else.
18:14Love, food, sleep.
18:17And it was that choice that led to her inevitable destruction.
18:20Do we really choose our compulsions, or are they hardwired into us?
18:25I don't think she could stop even if she wanted to.
18:28That's what makes it a tragedy.
18:31You know, I always thought you bought into the whole trophy wife shtick.
18:36But, you know, beyond the perfect bone structure and the watch worth more than my mortgage, there is so much
18:42more than meets the eye.
18:43Well, that is the sweetest backhanded compliment I have ever received.
18:48And I admire the hypocrisy of your bacon-eating veganism, and your irrational loathing of e-books.
18:55If I can't touch it, I refuse to read it.
19:04You need to stop calling me.
19:07Why do you keep playing these games?
19:08You found me.
19:10No.
19:12No, I was curious.
19:14And in a stupid, weak moment, I looked you up.
19:19You need to leave me the fuck alone.
19:21Nancy.
19:25Hey, sorry.
19:28That looked intense?
19:32Yeah.
19:33Is it something you want to talk about?
19:36It's just someone from my past.
19:40It's complicated and twisted and in the worst way imaginable.
19:46I've had my fair share of those.
19:49Yeah.
19:49God, you're trembling.
19:53Um, you know Mary invited us over to your house for dinner?
19:57Yeah, I'm looking forward to it.
19:59Can we just keep this conversation between us, um, you know, about the calls?
20:03I just, uh, I haven't, I haven't spoken to Robert about it.
20:08Of course.
20:09Don't say a word.
20:11Okay, thank you.
20:17Uh, two cappuccino, please.
20:19Name for the order?
20:20David.
20:25I've heard you've been talking about I'm doing just fine.
20:30Say I've got my eyes out every night after night.
20:33Hit to disappoint, but I've been doing just fine.
20:37Fine.
20:39Fine.
20:41Yeah.
20:42Yeah, yeah, I've been doing just fine, fine, fine.
20:49Yeah, yeah, I've been doing just fine.
20:53Yay!
20:55Excellent.
20:56Fantastic.
20:57That was fantastic.
20:58We've got to book her to one of our parties, okay?
21:00Yes.
21:00We're going to book you.
21:01We're going to book you.
21:01Go do your homework.
21:02Start with your spelling.
21:03That was amazing, sweetie.
21:05Sweet.
21:07How's the ballet going?
21:08Great.
21:09Great.
21:09Yeah, so far.
21:10If you don't factor in the insufferable pomposity of the nasal hoovering director...
21:16Nasal hoovering?
21:17Who are we talking about?
21:19I don't know.
21:20The Phil, the artistic director, he's...
21:23That ass, but enough about him.
21:24You two, relax.
21:26Retire to the living room.
21:27Let the men handle the dishes.
21:35Oh, my God, I'm so tired.
21:38Yeah?
21:38Sleep has just become a bit of a luxury these days.
21:42Between Howard's, you know, job search and everything that's going on with Marcus.
21:47Well, I think that Howard is going to get a full-time job soon.
21:50Spending the small amount of time that I've spent with him, he's so smart.
21:54Are you wearing your clatter ring again?
21:56Aw, it looks beautiful.
21:57Well, you told me it would be my grounding force, right?
22:00It is.
22:02Oh, well, well, well.
22:04Look at who's wearing Mommy's good shoes.
22:07Please be careful with those.
22:09Especially if the stairs, honey.
22:11Hey, babe.
22:12I think we should head home.
22:13They're going to put the kids to sleep.
22:15Let me tell Mary and Howard this one thing.
22:18We're all ears.
22:19So, this friend of mine, Jay Michaels, actually, he's a friend of my family's.
22:24He's kind of a dick, but he's really fucking smart.
22:27Baby, let's just hang on.
22:28Hang on.
22:29These are our friends, babe, and they need our help.
22:32We're fine.
22:32So, Jay is a criminal defense attorney, and he owes me a big one.
22:37Well, and Nance told me that Marcus has a court date coming up.
22:41So, why don't I just have Jay represent him totally free?
22:45Oh, my God.
22:47Well, that's Robert.
22:48As generous as that sounds, we're going to have to decline.
22:51Well, Howard, you should know that.
22:53We don't have to freeload off your friends to protect our son.
22:56I'll find another way.
22:58Thank you, Howard.
22:59It's not freeloading.
23:00It's a gift.
23:01You know, he owes me.
23:02I told you.
23:03Babe, let's just respect their boundaries on this one.
23:05Oh, my God, Nance.
23:08Respect their boundaries.
23:09Do you realize how stupid you're sounding right now?
23:15Come on.
23:16I'm sorry.
23:17Come on.
23:18I was just trying to help.
23:19So sensitive.
23:29It's not my place, but that was totally uncalled for.
23:34Is it a good idea for you to be alone with him tonight?
23:40Yeah, I'll be fine.
23:46Nance, Robert's about to get in the car.
23:47Yeah, I should take him home.
23:49I'll see you at night rehearsal.
23:51Okay.
24:06Hey.
24:07Hey.
24:08Hey, I thought you left.
24:08I forgot my bag.
24:10I'm just finishing up the program copy.
24:13Do you mind taking a look at this passage before I press send?
24:15Sure.
24:18You're the expert, not me.
24:19I don't know if I captured the right tone.
24:23Can you scroll down?
24:25Let me get there.
24:27Add a line that says he's pushing the limits of ballet with angular staccato movement.
24:36And the physicality is creating an intense intimacy between the dancers.
24:41You just came up with that.
24:43Yeah, I was a very serious dancer.
24:46Serious enough to be recruited by the San Francisco Ballet when I was 16.
24:49But I never did end up making it.
24:51And it was a million years ago.
24:54But I feel like if you do that, then you'd be golden.
25:05Done.
25:10Look, I really have to thank you.
25:13More than just the gainful employment, I've made a great friend.
25:19Well, don't get too sentimental.
25:21You are my best friend's husband.
25:22I will be seeing you.
25:24Yeah, I know, I know.
25:25But it's been nice spending time with such a thoughtful, intelligent person.
25:29You and Nancy Hennessy have been superb company.
25:33That's very kind.
25:37Um, I was actually going to treat myself to this stellar bottle of wine.
25:43Obviously, I cannot share it with Robert.
25:46So, would you like to...
25:53This is a 98 Pomerol Bordeaux.
25:57Louise, it would be criminal to drink this by yourself.
26:00Are you sure you don't have to get back to Mare and the kids?
26:02This might be the house red in your household, but this is some good shit.
26:08And like the Bacchae, we will savor every drop of this bold-bodied liquid ecstasy and worship the god of
26:18the 13th century BCE linear B tablet.
26:22What is a B tablet?
26:25The Mycenaean artifact where Dionysus first appeared, obviously.
26:30And apropos of Dionysus also being the god of insanity, here's to the chaos and the madness.
26:38Now, this should really be decanted.
26:54I think I'm actually quite good at this.
26:56I might actually be a prodigy.
27:00Oh, God.
27:02That's so...
27:03Everyone thinks they can dance.
27:04No one knows how hard.
27:05Well, come on and show me.
27:06I know it.
27:07I mean, it's first position, second position.
27:11No, you gotta extend that arm or...
27:14I am.
27:14You're looking at a man with the most unfashionable rotator cuff injury.
27:17This is as far as it goes.
27:19Oh, God sakes.
27:20No.
27:20Try it again.
27:22I'll...
27:22I'll show you.
27:23Okay.
27:24Ow.
27:25Oh.
27:26Wait.
27:27Ow.
27:28Don't move.
27:29Don't move.
27:29Don't move.
27:29I gotcha.
27:30Ah.
27:31Ow.
27:33Ow.
27:35I heard it.
27:36Oh, God.
27:39For the swelling.
27:41Thanks.
27:43For the pain.
27:44Nice.
27:55So why did you stop answering?
27:59You want the short answer or the long answer?
28:02Let's start with the short.
28:03A car accident.
28:07What's the long?
28:12Well...
28:16When I give you my answer,
28:18you're gonna think I'm fucked up in the head.
28:20Try me.
28:23My mom, she was furious with me.
28:27And rightfully so.
28:30She was driving, speeding, and I begged her to stop.
28:35But she wouldn't...
28:37I guess the usual drunken slap wasn't gonna cut it this time.
28:41Not after what I did.
28:43What did you do?
28:47I fucked her boyfriend.
28:50You mean he assaulted you?
28:53After my mom would pass out drunk, he would take me to the car.
28:57Or...
28:57My closet.
28:58Or...
28:59Wherever.
29:00That mystery caller, that's him?
29:03Scott.
29:06You wanna know something crazy?
29:09I'm the one that reached out to him this time.
29:14I don't know why I did that.
29:16I think you do.
29:19You're a fire starter.
29:22That's your true nature.
29:24You run into the burning building right before it collapses.
29:30But you have to hide it behind all this...
29:34Respectability.
29:38Robert's good little wife.
29:40I bet he has no idea.
29:44I did start to like it.
29:49The danger.
29:52Not knowing if we were gonna get caught.
29:54But...
29:57And the attention.
29:58I never had that before.
30:00Yeah, you wanted that.
30:03I needed it.
30:13Some crashes you can see coming.
30:16There's time to brace for impact.
30:18Or veer off course.
30:20But some crashes send you hurtling through space at such velocity that there's nothing you can do to change your
30:26fate.
30:29All that.
30:39I need to breathe.
30:41And come.
30:43Come on.
30:47I want to breathe.
30:50I want to breathe.
30:51I want to breathe.
30:52Come on.
30:56I want to breathe.
30:57I want to breathe.
31:24So the judge agreed to put Marcus in a diverse
31:27version program if he commits to Gamblers Anonymous and then he does community service,
31:31so which is, it's good news.
31:33Yeah, I think it's great.
31:38Because he's going to get the help that he needs.
31:41He's not going to have a permanent day on his record, and that's so and so.
31:44Sorry, I don't feel good.
31:45I'm going to go home.
31:46What's wrong?
31:47Nancy?
31:48Nance?
31:49Are you?
31:49Should I?
31:50Yeah, yeah, yeah.
31:51I'll be right back.
31:52Hey, Nancy?
31:55Nance?
31:55What is that?
31:56I'm sorry.
31:56I want to be there for Mary.
31:58I just, um, I just have too much going on right now.
32:02What are you, with Robert?
32:05I did something so stupid.
32:08Stupid how?
32:11I slept with someone.
32:14Please don't tell Mary.
32:16I don't think she would understand.
32:17Nancy, I, are you having an affair?
32:24With who?
32:26It doesn't matter.
32:27It's no one you know.
32:28He's okay.
32:28His name is David.
32:29It's not going to happen again.
32:31Okay.
32:32I have to go.
32:33Yo, can you call me?
32:34Okay.
32:35Okay.
32:43Hey, honey.
32:45Where are you going?
32:47I'm rushing to make a flight.
32:49Why didn't I know about this?
32:51I just found out about it myself.
32:53It's a 9-1-1 emergency.
32:55They need my help closing a deal before the restructuring gets finalized.
32:58I'm meeting with the New York lawyers first thing tomorrow.
33:01I feel like I'm losing my mind.
33:03What?
33:04Why?
33:05There's nothing to worry about.
33:06Of course I'm worried.
33:08You have time to fly across the country at the drop of a hat, but you don't have time
33:11to talk to me or, or to set a time with a counselor?
33:15I'll, I'll make time for everything when I get back on Monday.
33:17Monday?
33:19You're going for a week?
33:22It's not like I want to leave.
33:25Then don't.
33:26I have to.
33:27So?
33:28Are you divorcing me?
33:37Hey.
33:38Stop worrying.
33:40I love you.
33:45We'll talk when I get back.
34:10Hey.
34:12Can we meet?
34:17I am a monster.
34:20A feline.
34:22A queen.
34:25Angelic.
34:26Majestic.
34:28Little old me.
34:31I am a giant.
34:35I am a fly.
34:39Zion within me.
34:42I am a giant.
34:44I am ją and acaugил the traveher.
34:50You're in love.
35:06I am lost.
35:06I am mortal.
35:07I am a starving man if you don't care about your heart.
35:09I am alive.
35:14I am a goddess, a fool, a fake
35:21I am your mother, your sister, a snake
35:28I am a dreamer, a star in that star
35:35I'm looking at you, baby
35:39You know who you are
35:42Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
35:56oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
35:57oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
35:57oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,

35:58oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
36:11By the way, we are so proud to be given a joy.
36:16Oh, God, I am.
36:20I am proud to be here.
36:30I am proud to be here.
36:33I am proud to be here.
36:37The way I am.
36:39I am proud to be here.
36:50Yeah, that's good.
36:56Hey.
36:58Hey.
36:59How was the trip?
37:02Fine.
37:06Um, I was hoping we could sit down tonight and talk.
37:09We-we're joining family dinner tonight.
37:12Yeah.
37:13I'm just gonna hop in the shower.
37:24They said it was futile.
37:25Jude's too far gone.
37:27Time to let her go.
37:29But, uh, your obstinate father wouldn't listen.
37:32No price was too great to pay to bring her back to life.
37:35This summer, we bid fair winds and following seas
37:38to Demeter's wish.
37:39The old gal is ready to cast off.
37:43Son.
37:44Yes, sir?
37:44Our champagne glasses need refilling.
37:46Right away.
37:47I shouldn't have to ask.
37:50That's incredible news, Daddy.
37:53It almost wasn't, thanks to Bobby's colossal fuck-up.
37:56Not here.
37:57Please.
37:58Why not?
37:59That's why we're celebrating.
38:00The SEC is off our backs, thanks to Harlan's clever maneuvering.
38:04Always happy to be of service.
38:07We managed to survive a bloodbath by the skin of our teeth.
38:10I, uh, think it's cause to celebrate.
38:14Babe, what's he talking about?
38:15What fuck?
38:18I thought you were gonna tell her when you got home, Bobby.
38:21I haven't had time.
38:23No?
38:24Well, allow me.
38:25Bobby convinced Daddy to sink 20% of our holdings
38:28into acquiring a company that was
38:30nothing but a steaming pile of debt.
38:32And the only way that we were able to avoid
38:35the nightmare of a lawsuit
38:37was to have Bobby use his portion of the trust
38:40to pay off our investors.
38:42Is that true?
38:44Sometimes you just gotta rip off the band-aid, Bobby.
38:47His name that he uses in his adult life is Robert.
38:52Let's go.
39:34Oh, sweetheart.
39:41I fucked up, Nance.
39:46I really fucked up.
39:51I'm gonna fuck up.
39:54They're right about that.
39:57And everything changes now.
39:59All our expenses.
40:03My father will control
40:05the house,
40:07the cars,
40:08your parties.
40:11Everything goes through him.
40:15Is that all that this is about?
40:17Money?
40:17So,
40:20I know this isn't what you signed up for,
40:22so I want you to know that
40:24if you decide
40:26to leave me,
40:27I understand.
40:28What if you?
40:29I thought you wanted to leave me.
40:32I would have to want to leave you.
40:33You're
40:34the most important person
40:36in the world to me.
40:37Because I read that email about
40:42separation of assets.
40:44I...
40:44That was
40:46to protect you.
40:48You're divorcing me to protect me?
40:50I needed to stash your settlement money
40:52in an offshore account
40:53so my father couldn't get to it.
40:55Oh, my God.
40:57You deserve protection.
41:02Shh.
41:03I don't want a divorce.
41:05I want you.
41:06But the man who rescued you,
41:09I'm not that guy anymore.
41:12Your money did not rescue me.
41:14You can't say that.
41:16Yes, I can.
41:17I can.
41:19I can.
41:20I've been living without your love
41:21for three months now
41:22and I'm...
41:25a total mess.
41:26I don't care about it.
41:28Your dad can take it.
41:30I just want you.
41:32So sorry.
41:35I really let the drinking
41:37get out of hand.
41:39I fucked that up, too.
41:42And then I look at you.
41:44How strong you are.
41:46No.
41:47Yeah.
42:02I'm never going to let you go.
42:14I'm never going to let you go.
42:16I'm never going to let you go.
42:21Yeah.
43:52The day before that, we fucked in the dressing room, and the day before that, it was wherever you told
43:57me to be.
43:57It was a mistake. I was in a bad place in my marriage. It never should have happened.
44:02I deserve more consideration than this. I risked everything for you.
44:05I never asked you to.
44:06No, you just seduced me, then treated me like one of your house servants that serves at the ring of
44:10a bell.
44:10Okay, if you need to blame me to make yourself feel better, that's fine, but we need to move on.
44:15You don't get to decide that.
44:17Let go of my arm, or I promise this won't end well for you.
44:24Maybe I owe it to Robert to tell him about us.
44:30He's a good man.
44:33He deserves to know who we married.
44:38You really think he would believe I'd sleep with you?
44:42No one ever would.
44:55I'm so happy that you didn't hate it.
44:58That I what?
44:59That you didn't hate it.
45:00Oh, I loved it. I loved everything about it.
45:03The dancing, and the clothes.
45:07Costumes?
45:08The costumes, yeah. It was beautiful.
45:09This was my chance to course-correct and avoid catastrophe.
45:14I had to tell Robert the truth.
45:16All of it.
45:17And believe that he would still love me.
45:23Hey.
45:28Boom.
45:42Honey.
45:44Honey.
45:44Honey, I have to tell you something.
45:47Who sent this to you?
45:51I don't know.
45:53I...
45:55I don't...
45:56No, I can't, I...
45:57You're lying.
46:00Who is he?
46:03No one.
46:04He was a mistake.
46:06Mistake that you fucked in the backseat of your car!
46:09Please, please, can we just talk about it?
46:10This whole time I've been torturing myself with guilt.
46:13I'm sorry.
46:13I'm sorry.
46:14Fucking time.
46:15I can't believe this.
46:16I can't believe this.
46:17Stop!
46:18Stop!
46:19Stop!
46:20He did this!
46:21Hey!
46:22No!
46:22Get back here!
46:24Get back here!
46:29Get back here!
47:25Get back here!
47:53Get back here!
47:57Get back here!
47:59Get back here!
48:00You
