Mistresses (US) s03e04 Episode Script

Why would I talk about anything to you? You lie.
Previously on "Mistresses" Now, that's gonna be a problem.
Bye, love.
I'm telling you, apart from having a fatal disease, my life kicks ass.
Why are you here alone? After a major procedure, why is there not someone here with you? Men like women with their hair down at least your husband does.
I thought we weren't talking.
We're not.
Hey.
Hey.
How long have you been staring at me? Oh Oh.
Is that weird? Oh We passed weird a long time ago.
Then in that case, I'd like to uh Just keep looking at you.
Ow! What was that for? I just I want to make sure that this is actually happening.
Is this real? Yes, and I'm pretty sure you're supposed to pinch yourself.
Right.
Sorry.
Yeah, and, secondly, was that a, um "This feels so good, I can't believe it's happening" kind of pinch or I can't believe what a colossal mistake I've made? No, no, no, no, no.
It was a positive pinch.
- Yeah? - So positive.
What about you? Are you having regrets or Oh, yeah, this sucks.
- Huh? - Are you kidding? Oh! You're mean! What are you talking about? I can't see my face, but I feel like I'm grinning like an idiot.
You are.
I grin like that? A little bit.
I know what you mean, though.
Hmm? Never in a million years from where we started did I think we'd end up here.
And where would you say we are? Happy.
Mm.
Mmm.
How many times do I have to say it? Calista Raines is not putting her designs in some low-end retail store.
Well, she's a dying breed of artist, then.
And you know what? You stop calling her directly.
I'm the C.
E.
O.
, you come to me.
She's got enough on her plate.
Come on.
Sorry you had to hear that.
Am I supposed to thank you now? What's wrong? Hmm, what's wrong? You screwed Eva Petrov that's what's wrong.
What? Yeah, and right before the biggest runway show of my career.
You truly are a disgusting man.
Wait a minute.
Hold up.
I didn't sleep with Eva.
Where are you even getting this? From her crooked little mouth.
Come on! If you continue to smile like that, I'm going to smash your face.
She made it up, Cal, okay, to gall you, and it worked.
And why would she do that? Because she's an 80-pound child who you humiliated in front of the other models.
It was her, it was last week at G'Auberge Hotel, it was the blonde.
Helga Bernard? She runs our showroom in New York.
I had a drink with her.
We had dinner in the restaurant with her fiancé.
Look, I I get it, you know? My mistake in the past is causing you to doubt me in the present, and that's my fault.
But I am trying to change that.
Tomorrow's our 10-year wedding anniversary.
Will you have dinner with me tomorrow night? 'Cause I would like to celebrate it with you.
I made a reservation at Luke's, where, if you recall, I got down on one knee, and I proposed to you.
If the date still means something to you, please come.
I just wanted you to know that it still means something to me.
I can't talk right now.
I'm about to meet with Lucy's new headmaster.
Are we still on for tonight? Hold on, Joss.
I got to go.
You must be April.
Sorry I'm late.
Oh, we're fine.
That's that's fine.
You're you're fine.
Please, have a seat.
Let me grab Lucy's file.
Uh, first, I just wanted to apologize for missing your welcome brunch.
And I have noticed Lucy's new "cover girl" look, and I am all over it.
Good, but that's not why I asked you to come in today.
It's not? No.
I'm afraid Lucy's gpa has fallen to a 2.
8.
What? Which puts her in danger of losing her scholarship.
But she's always gotten A's and B's.
Not according to her latest progress report, which you signed.
This is not my signature.
Then we have a much bigger problem.
I get it.
It's bad.
But Lucy is a good girl who is just going through a very tough time.
- Do you watch the news? - I do.
Catch the story about the guy who faked his own death then was murdered by a drug lord? - Florida man? - Yep.
That was Lucy's father.
Oh.
Yeah.
I'm so sorry.
She lost him once, then learned he was alive the whole time, only to lose him again.
Well, I will cut her some slack.
Thank you.
And she will get it from me about the signature.
Uh, just a sec.
Have you considered sending Lucy to this weekend's life skills camping trip at big bear? She didn't give you the pamphlet.
Clearly, I have to start checking her backpack.
It's a character-building program.
I find that all kids, especially those going off track, can benefit from challenging outdoor activities.
Lucy is not very outdoorsy.
Oh, neither was my daughter.
But when she hit a rough patch during high school, my wife and I sent her.
It was helpful.
Yeah, I'll Think about it.
Good.
Your résumé looks It looks great.
I can't believe you worked at The Tavern.
How long were you in Sydney? Not nearly long enough.
Did you work with Sparky? Did I work with him? I was a groomsman in the guy's wedding.
- I had known the dude three months.
- Well, he's crazy.
We used to ditch school and surf all day.
- Oh, you surf? - Oh, yeah.
We should uh I was gonna say we should hit up the Venice breakwater some time, but then I remembered this was a job interview.
- So too soon.
- Yes, business.
I should probably have you make me a drink first.
I can do that.
You are A whiskey man.
Of course.
A little bit of absinthe.
Some whiskey.
Mm-hmm.
Cherry bitters.
Don't mind if I do.
Yeah, that's That's good.
You're very good.
Hey, make yourself one.
If you're happy, I'm happy.
Actually, hold that thought.
As chief mixologist, Niko should try it, too.
If she likes it You're in.
I think you found a new surfing buddy.
Hey, hey! - You got the job, mate.
- All right! Welcome.
Okay.
Vivian, hi.
Hi.
Sorry to just drop by like this.
Can we talk for a second? Of course.
I didn't know who else to turn to.
My other friends would all make a big deal out of this, and I don't want them to make a big deal unless it is a big deal.
You can tell me anything.
It's Alec.
He's Oh, I can't even believe I'm saying this.
I think he's having an affair.
No.
He adores you.
Well, a man can adore his wife and cheat.
If anyone can compartmentalize, it's Alec.
From the little I know of him, it seems so out of his character.
He's so caring and attentive to you.
He usually is attentive, except a couple of days ago.
I called him and left him a message, which he didn't return until the very end of the day.
And, you know, maybe I wouldn't have thought anything of it, but then I called his office.
Turns out, he never went in that day.
He canceled all his meetings.
Where was he if he wasn't working? He was here with me.
I had just had my procedure.
He dropped by to check on me.
And he stayed the whole day? The side effects hit me harder than I expected.
And I-I was here alone.
I didn't ask him to come.
Yeah, I should go.
Vivian I can't be here.
Vivian, please.
I didn't ask him to come over or cancel his meetings or stay all day.
So why do I feel like I did something wrong? Did you do something wrong? No, not at all.
It was perfectly chaste.
"Perfectly chaste"? Was there physical contact? He took my pulse and held my hair while I puked.
Oh, both chaste and disgusting.
What? It's just Why wouldn't he have told Vivian? Because there was nothing to tell.
Plus, he's not much of a talker until he starts talk about Vivian, then he lights up.
I'm telling you, April, this man loves his wife.
Well, then don't worry, they'll get through it.
And what if they don't? What do you mean? What if this stupid day with me put a crack in their marriage? I've seen it with couples I've counseled.
A hairline of mistrust without immediate attention can become a real break.
That would be a shame, but I don't see what you can do about it.
I can fix it.
Karen.
I slept with Harry! Oh, my God! Congratulations? Are we happy? Yeah, we are.
We don't look happy.
No, no, no, we're thrilled.
It was it was good, it was amazing.
It was the most connected, passionate sex I have ever had.
Our souls intertwining at least I think it was our souls.
Yeah.
So what does this mean? Exactly.
Exactly! You ask a fine question! What does it mean, April? I can't say that I know.
What does it mean to you, honey? It's it I'm done.
He's my guy.
But I literally asked him where we stand, and he says, "we're happy.
" We're happy.
What does happy mean? Since when is happy bad? It's not bad, Karen.
You know, it's just it isn't anything.
We've been dancing around this for a year.
He pulls this, like, run out of "the graduate" to stop my wedding, confesses his love to me, we finally do it, it exceeds expectations, and I ask him where we stand, and he says, "we're happy.
" He's having doubts.
That's what's happening.
I cannot believe that he's having doubts.
No, he's not! Hold on! You don't know that.
Maybe he's just afraid to define it.
Why would he be afraid? Because he doesn't want to scare you off.
Sweetie, you have to admit, historically, you're not the commitment type.
And the last time you were pressured I was a runaway bride.
Harry's done the relationship thing where he was committed when the other person wasn't.
So he just needs a little bit of reassurance.
Okay.
Okay, I can do that.
Mmm! Sorry.
What's happening with you guys? - Ugh! - Ugh! So, I signed it.
So what? Lucy, you know that was wrong.
Fine, I know.
Can I go to my room now? I just don't understand why you didn't tell me.
'Cause you would have gotten mad.
I would have been concerned and suggested a tutor.
I don't need a tutor.
I'm not stupid.
Of course you're not.
That's not what Sorry if I got a few C's after my dad died a second time.
Okay, you're right.
You have been dealing with way too much, which is what I told Headmaster Patterson, and he's gonna Did you tell him about dad? Why does everyone have to know? He's not gonna say anything, honey.
I thought it would help.
Stop trying to help me.
You make everything worse.
Got the job.
I liked Harry.
We can talk about it later.
Okay, so I confirmed the Roosevelt for your editor's luncheon next week, and they suggested hydrangea centerpieces, but I told them burgundy calla lilies to complement the new line.
I can't.
Mmm.
We can to do the hydrangeas.
No, it's It's Luca.
Oh, no.
Okay.
What did he do now? He invited me to dinner.
It's our 10-year anniversary today.
Well, I would say congratulations, but we hate him.
We don't hate him.
Oh, okay.
You're not considering going, are you? He just cheated on you with twiggy.
Or did he? Or am or am I just and I paranoid? Calista, do you really think that you are being paranoid? I don't know.
I don't know anymore.
He's screwed me over so many freaking times, that's just what I go to at this point.
- I feel crazy.
- Stop, okay.
Look it doesn't matter.
Even if he didn't sleep with Eva whatever her name is, he's still a lying bastard who you're planning to punish with a crushing divorce.
Hey, don't forget how I met you, lady long lens.
I know, I know.
So, why would you consider going to dinner? Because it's my marriage, Joss.
It's a marriage, it's a it's it's it's a decade of history.
And it wasn't all bad.
- Mmm.
- Ss-s-sort of bad.
I mean, the first two years were magic, seriously.
He loved me when I had frizzy hair, sewing like a maniac in my parents' basement in Queens.
He went out and stole a car and hocked it and put the seed money towards the company.
I mean, we were two scrappy, hungry kids so desperate to make something out of ourselves when everyone said that we wouldn't.
And to their surprise, we did, and we built a freaking empire.
I get it.
But, Calista, do you still love him? I didn't think I did.
But now I don't know.
Crazier than that, Joss, I think He he may still love me.
Okay.
Mmm, mmm.
So, what are we wearing to this dinner? Vivian, it's Karen again.
I'd really like to clear the air.
Please call me back.
Karen.
Alec, hi.
So, you're back at work.
Yes, indeed.
Good.
Hey, you have a, uh Lint.
Thank you.
Anyway, I'm glad you're feeling better.
You look good.
Thanks.
Our bourbon and ginger is a big seller.
So is our coconut mojito.
What, do they come with a lap dance? You're not a warm person, are you? Uh, we're not open yet.
Oh, I'm here to see Harry.
Davis, girl here! - "Girl here"? - Yeah, sorry about that.
Hey.
- Hi.
- You're here.
Yeah.
I just thought I'd pop in and see you.
Oh, just in time for some nosh.
Look at that.
That looks good.
Mmm, so do you.
Uh Oh, have you met Marc? Hi, Marc.
Hi.
Oh! Wait.
Uncle Marc.
Well, yeah.
I've heard so much about you.
It's great to meet you.
Nice to meet you.
Can I get you lovebirds something to drink? Sure.
Two glasses of our domaine Syrah.
Thanks, mate.
Uh-huh.
Aww.
I like him.
He's cute.
Easy.
Oh, but you're hot.
- Oh, yeah? - Very hot.
You like me, then? - I love you.
- I love you.
You do? Mm.
I wish I didn't have to work today.
Oh, well, I can come by your place later tonight.
You could, but I won't be home until about 2:00 A.
M.
Oh.
How about, uh How about brunch in bed tomorrow? Oh, my God, I wish! I'm I'm I'm organizing this luncheon for Calista, but can we do it the next day? Thank you.
Thanks, mate.
Uh, the next day, I'm supposed to be looking at houses.
Wait, houses? Yeah, I feel like it's time for an upgrade.
But you know what? I can look another day.
I'd much rather spend time with you.
Or I could look at houses with you.
Really? I know a lot about them.
- Houses.
- Yeah.
Even though you don't have one.
Well, I don't have one yet.
You are you saying I don't know.
It's just a thought.
- You and I should - Mm.
No, or do you think it's too soon? Are you kidding? It's not possible.
- So it's a yeah? - Yeah.
Oh! Oh.
- Oh! - Come here.
I'm not having an affair with your husband.
I know you're not.
Come in.
I'm sorry.
Why are you sorry? Because you've been nothing but selfless, and I acted like a lunatic showing up at your place.
It's fine.
- I'm embarrassed.
- Don't be.
I should have just asked Alec where he was that day, which I finally did, by the way, and he told me straight out he was with you.
He said he didn't mention it because he knew I wouldn't have wanted him to bother you.
It wasn't a bother.
I actually needed some looking after.
I didn't think I would, but You doctors just kill me.
You'd jump into a pot of boiling oil before admitting you need help.
I'll work on that.
Should we sit? Sure.
Look, it's none of my business but why were you so quick to think Alec was cheating on you? He's not the type, I know.
It's just How do I say this? Alec and I don't have sex.
Oh.
Yeah.
Since when? Since my diagnosis.
Three years ago? Well, it started as an off-and-on thing, but this past year Mostly off? Like a light.
And what do you think that's about? I think he sees me as a patient now.
You know, someone to dote on and tend to this porcelain thing that he's afraid to break.
It's like he's forgotten how to see me that way.
I'm sorry to hear that.
And how is this for cruel irony? We used to be rabbits.
It was one of the reasons we waited to have kids.
Sex was was so much a part of who we were together.
We didn't want to mess it up.
Then I got sick and everything shifted.
But now you feel better.
I have tried, but Alec doesn't respond.
Have you thought about counseling? Oh, the last thing that Alec wants to talk about is our sex lives.
I mean, he can barely talk about lunch without breaking into hives.
You and Alec love each other.
It's so clear.
I've seen it.
I've felt it.
The ember's still strong.
If Alec is resistant to therapy, then you'll just have to find a creative way to fan the old flames.
Creative, how? Karen? Hello? Mr.
Davis, this is your realtor calling.
Mm, my realtor sounds very sexy.
What's sexy is this house that I just found us.
Listen to this Fryman Canyon, three bed, two bath, priced well below value.
The caravan's in two days, but I can get us in tomorrow at 4:00.
I No, I can't tomorrow at 4:00, babe.
We're booked solid, and I'm trying out a whole new menu.
Babe, I'm sure that your minions can handle the kitchen for an hour.
We'll be fast, in and out, I promise.
I just I have a really good feeling about this and I called in a favor with the agent, so Can you do 3:00? Mm-hmm.
Texting you the address now.
Let's go! We don't eat dinner until all these tents are all up.
All right? Lucy.
Lucy! - Lucy! - What? Can you please help me here? You wanted to come here, you pitch the tent.
I wanted to come here so we could spend time together.
This is not spending time.
You wanted to come here to punish me.
Please give me that makeup.
No.
Yes! Come and get it.
You Yeah, I didn't think so.
I'm going to Emma's tent.
Everything okay? Oh, yeah, she's just, uh, still adjusting to the altitude.
If you need any help.
Oh, I got this.
Okay.
Wait, wait.
What was her name again? What? Come on! Pia Conti.
Right.
Every time she'd piss us off, we'd go, both: "Don't Pia Conti.
" God, I love your laugh.
Oh, come on.
- More champagne? - Mnhmnh.
Give it to me.
- No, I'm good.
Oh.
- We're celebrating.
No, in a minute.
All right.
Come on, where's my good-time girl? - Luca.
- Hmm? Don't Pia Conti.
Oh! Hmm? When is the last time we did this? Hmm? Dinner together? Mm.
No buyers, clients A year.
I've missed it.
- I'm just saying.
- Mmhmm.
Well, I got something for you.
No.
What I I didn't get you anything.
Hey, stop.
You showed up.
True.
- Really? - Mmhmm.
Wow.
Are you serious? This is stunning.
You like it? Like it?! I love it! It's it's crazy! The artistry is amazing.
Who who designed this? I did.
- You did? - Yeah.
And I got more.
It's part of a side project I've been working on.
I got nine pieces.
Bracelets, earrings, cufflinks for men.
So this Is a logo I roughed out.
And here are the designs.
Modern, yet timeless.
Everything in line with our brand.
I sourced the gemstones in Namibia, conflict-free, of course.
Hey.
What's wrong? I'm so stupid.
What? This is not about our anniversary.
This is about business.
It's about you bringing me here, soften me up, get me drunk, and then I would just sign off on your jewelry line under my brand? - Come on.
- Right.
Hey, sit down.
Come on.
Sit down.
No, no, no, no.
Really, aa jewelry line, Luca? This was a present.
- Oh, was it? - Yeah.
Well, this is my present.
You're a selfish bastard.
Do not follow me home.
Lucy, you ready to go to the canteen? Hey, Sarah, have you seen Lucy? She went with Counselor Lauren and some other kids to gather firewood.
She would literally do anything to get away from me.
I'm sorry? Nothing.
Uh, do you know which trail she took? Lucy?! Hello! Need a hand? Yeah, sure.
Oh! Was that realtor breathing down our necks, or what? Nice poker face, by the way.
You love the house, though, right? Mmm, wouldn't say love.
Seriously? What is not to love? It had amazing bones, great light.
You cannot beat that location or the price.
You can beat that kitchen, though.
Oh, come on.
Every house has something.
We'll just replace the cabs and counters.
And the stove? And that sink? And and and plus the layout is all wrong.
But, Harry, everyone wants turnkey, but, you know, you pay through the nose for it.
Trust me, this house is a find.
I don't know.
We we just started looking, all right? Yeah, but I don't want us to regret this.
I mean, have an edge today, but it's gone tomorrow.
Well, maybe it's not meant to be.
Hey, we'll find something.
Don't worry.
Well, the good news is I don't think it's broken.
And the bad? No hiking for you tonight.
I wasn't planning on it.
I was actually looking for Lucy.
She ditched me back at camp.
I'm starting to think we shouldn't have come here.
Why did you? You said it would be good for her.
As a personal growth opportunity, not a mother-daughter bonding trip.
Oh, God.
It's okay.
I just I I thought if I took her out here, maybe she'd let her guard down a little, stop seeing me as the enemy and start seeing me as her friend.
I may be overstepping feel free to tell me to shut up but I don't think Lucy needs you to be her friend right now.
Her reality was shattered, and she needs to know you're in control.
She just pushes back so hard.
Of course she does.
She's a teenager.
I get it.
I do.
Being a single parent ain't for sissies.
My daughter's 18, and it's still hard for me.
I thought you were married.
Widowed.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Yeah, five years ago.
I know.
It's a long time to still wear the ring.
I wore mine for a long time, too.
It's hard to let go.
Walk you back? Sure.
Oh, that's so great! You've made my day.
Thanks! Great.
Goodbye.
You're in luck.
Faith & Flower had a cancelation, so I just got you and Alec a reservation for tonight.
Now, how's the dress? I'm not sure.
Well, let's see.
Don't be shy.
Vivian! Really? You look stunning.
Ohh.
My arms.
Nothing a little makeup can't fix.
If this doesn't quicken Alec's pulse, then he might not be human.
What's wrong? I can't wear this.
Could you undo me? Just please.
Yes, of course.
Can you tell me what's going on? I feel fake, like I'm - Wearing a costume.
- That is a dress you said you would have bought for yourself.
Three years ago, maybe.
It isn't just that Alec doesn't find me desirable anymore.
I don't find me desirable anymore.
You're just out of practice, that's all.
Vivian Look at me.
You're the most vital woman I've ever met.
That sexiness is still inside you.
And we're going to bring it out so he won't be able to look away.
Okay.
Why are you helping me like this? What do you mean? I Never mind.
You know what? I am gonna need more than a dress to pull this thing off.
Come back to my place? Sure.
You packed my bags? I thought you would have cooled off by now.
From, uh, now on, you could Sleep wherever you slept last night, but You can't live here anymore.
Look, I'm sorry, Cal, okay? I thought that you might find the idea of an accessory line romantic.
You know, you and I working together.
It's such crap.
Really.
It has nothing to do with romance.
It has to do with you wanting a piece of the spotlight for yourself.
No, I-I don't care about the spotlight.
"Accessories by Luca.
" "Accessories by Luca.
" Call it something else then! I'm going to bed.
Don't walk away from me.
I'm trying to talk to you.
Hey, Carla.
Don't call me that.
Carla, baby.
That's not who I am anymore.
I'm not letting her go.
- Leave me alone.
- Because she's the girl who loves me.
Carla.
Come on.
Stop it.
Stop laughing! Okay! Okay, okay, okay, okay! Aah.
Okay.
What's that face? I'm giving you cheekbones.
I'm doing your eyes.
How much do you love this weed? It's a miracle.
Medical-grade miracle.
I can tell.
An old love of mine was sick, and he used it for pain.
Well, we used it together.
And then it was pleasure.
Ohh.
Alec won't smoke with me.
I slipped him a pot cookie once, he gap-folded my t-shirts and color-coded his ties.
Oh! How long till Alec gets home? Uh, about an hour.
Then we better get to it.
This is so embarrassing.
I'll be fine.
Go, run campfire.
Thank God.
We've been looking for you.
We have a situation.
- What's going on? - Where's Lucy? We don't know.
She and Emma split off from the rest of the group on the hike.
They're missing.
What do you mean, missing? Call the ranger station now.
It's gonna be okay.
We'll find her.
Counselors, all right, we're gonna fan out.
You go that way.
You take that way.
Hi, there.
How's it going? Can you, uh, tell Harry girl is here.
Hey, Joss.
I-I'll go get him.
Oh, thanks, Marc.
Hmm.
Flaming wonder, on the house.
- Hey.
- Hey.
What's up? Everything okay? Yeah, yeah, I just I, uh I wanted to show you this this other house that I found.
What? Well, it's just uh It's kind of busy right now.
Kind of busy right now? Okay.
- Joss - Oh, whatever, Harry.
Joss, just stop No, you're having second thoughts.
It's fine.
Joss, Joss, Joss - Joss, stop! - What? What are you talk What are you talking about, second thoughts? About moving in and about me.
Josslyn I love you.
Wow.
Wow, what was that? Nothing, Harry.
I just you know, I didn't I didn't do this for this.
You didn't do what for what? Lose my sister to casually date you.
- Just this is real for me, Harry.
- Okay.
- Okay, it it has to be it.
- So this is about Savi.
- No! - I get it now.
That's the rush.
You don't want to move in together because you want to be with me.
No, I do.
I just I You just want to show her it was worth it.
Lucy! Oh, my God! Thank God you're okay! She and her friend were smoking cigarettes in a protected wilderness area.
- What?! - That's a federal offense.
But because of Headmaster Patterson's relationship with the Park Service, we're just gonna give you a warning this time.
Thank you, Frank.
I'll take it from here.
No, I'll take it.
What the hell were you thinking? They're not even my cigarettes.
It's not a big deal.
Not a big deal? You could have started a forest fire, and I did not raise you to pollute the precious little lungs God gave you.
Does this mean we can go home now? No, it doesn't, little girl.
You are gonna stick it out for the next two days and do everything that's asked of you, starting with an apology to everyone for disrupting this trip.
- Now? - After I'm done! And no screen time for a month.
What?! And you're gonna pick up trash on the school grounds every day for two weeks.
What trash? - Oh, there's litter.
- See.
There's litter.
Fine.
- And - Sorry.
And? Sorry.
Mm.
Wow.
Yeah.
Can I tell you something? No! Please, don't say anything.
You have a tendency to ruin nice moments.
I'm sorry.
For? Being weak and not deserving you.
If we could start over I'd like to start over.
I thought we just did.
Hmm.
A shot of whiskey, please.
Hey, how was that house? Better make it a double.
- Bad, huh? - Mm.
One of those hillside ones on stilts, huh? Nope, uh Joss and I had a fight.
She was emotional, and I was I was kind of a jerk.
Well, it's not over, though.
Certainly not.
But I've got to call her.
Chef, uh, meat delivery.
They need you to sign for it.
Meat? Right-o.
I'll be right there.
_ _ What did his text say? "Patient emergency.
" Oh.
He died, didn't he? That old love of yours.
Tom.
Yes, he did.
Was he The one? Well, he was married, but Oh.
As was the other great love of my life.
Although with Peter, I didn't know.
He was my cognitive-science professor in college.
God, I was so young.
When I found out about his wife, I was devastated.
The fact that he let you fall in love with him, it's just so wrong.
Well, maybe he looked at me and saw, "oh, she's the mistress type.
" Just assumed I'd be capable.
Turns out, I was.
You're afraid that you're attracted to my husband, aren't you? What? You're pushing us together so you don't pull us apart.
Oh, God.
Something's wrong with me.
I think I'm really broken.
No.
No.
Listen to me.
You're human.
And you're beautiful, and you are a truly good friend.
And what is wrong with me that you finding Alec attractive is kind of turning me on? I mean, really turning me on.
He's here.
- Okay.
Okay! - How do I look? - Gorgeous.
Vivian? Karen.
Hi, Alec.
Vivian and I were just saying goodbye.
Wha W-what's what's all this? Have you been smoking? Just a little.
Are you feeling sick? No, I'm fine.
Are you sure? Did you take all your meds today? Alec, look at me.
I'm looking at you.
No, you're not.
He's not, is he? No.
Karen Don't go.
Vivian? Please.
