"(Victor) I know why you're in such a funk... mid-life crisis." "So I jumped off a plane, quit my job, before getting knocked on my ass when I found my wife trying to deal with her own crisis." " Your wife pays me." " What, for sex?" "(Neil) But that's when I finally started living." "I got his phone, took his identity, met one of his clients, then got a surprising proposal from someone who was much more." " Come work for me." " [laughs]" "(Neil) And I did." "(Adriana) I have a service that caters to very rich women." "(Neil) But I wasn't the only one." " Are you accepting new clients?" " Yes." "I would love to talk about redecorating my house."

"You would like us to sign over your educational accounts so you can go play..." " at the what festival?" " The March Lawn Festival." "(Neil) Grace and I may still have our secrets, but despite it all, our marriage and our dreams have remained intact and, in some ways, gotten stronger." "(Grace) I got the grant to study design in Milan." "(Neil) I would love to come with you." "But all that's about to change..." "My husband found out." "I told him." "It was starting to eat at me." "Again." "Is this what they mean by "for better or for worse"?" "It's certainly an adventure." "Yes, it is." "We have a second chance now." "Going to Italy to pursue my dreams."

"Daniel, why don't you and I go into the house-- [gun cocks] Don't!" "No, no, no, no!" "Wait, wait!" "Here!" "Here!" " Get back." " Don't you move!" "Wait." "Wait!" "How long were you two having an affair?" "You got to put the gun down." "I followed her that day she went to your office." "[groans]" "I know she saw you more than once." "How long?" "Listen to me." "I know how you feel right now." "Oh, really?" "You know how I feel, huh?" "How about--how about I screw your wife?" " Oh!" " And then you can tell me if you know how I feel." " Let her go." " No, you're gonna watch." "[crying, groans]" " No!" " Listen!" "Listen, you think I ruined your marriage, but I may have been a part of saving it." "I know from experience that Mallory wouldn't have been looking for someone like me if you'd been giving her what she needed." " What did you say?" " I'm--I'm saying... that I made the same mistake." "Didn't I, Grace?" "[breathing heavily]" "Yes." "And what happened?" "I slept with someone." "You're making this up." "I wish I was." "I caught them together." "[breathing heavily]" "Tell him what it felt like, Neil." "Tell me." "My whole world exploded in that moment." "I hated you." "And I wanted to kill the son of a bitch she was with." "I really did." "But then I realized that that wasn't gonna solve anything." "Marriage is hard." "People make mistakes, but if you really love each other, then you work it out." "You just need to want the same thing, right?" "Your marriage was in trouble before I came into the picture." "Mallory came to me to fix it."

"She's not the only one either." "What?" "After I saw you with Simon that day," "I got a hold of his phone, access to his clients, and I experimented." "[scoffs]" "You experimented?" "Experimented with what?" "Being a paid escort." "[sighs]" "Are you joking?" "Is--is this a joke?"

"Whoa, whoa." "To decorate your house?" "What kind of monster are you?" " You're the secret client?" " Neil, Grace..." "I just drove over here to help you both out of what sounds like a very delicate situation." "Now, if you'd like me to stay, we're going to have to put aside all of the other teenage nonsense right now." "Can we do that?" "[door closes]" "Police are on their way." "Raymond, these are the Trumans." " Trumans, this is Raymond." " Anyone hurt?" "Need medical attention?" "Uh, no." "Saw security cameras out front." "They work?" "Yes." "Okay, first thing we need to do is lay out the time line, get the story straight." "Neil, show me where it happened." "Um..." "Neil, let's go." "I'll be fine." "So that was clearly self-defense." "Is your wife gonna back you up on that story?" "Why wouldn't she?" "Adriana filled me in on everything, Neil." "If your wife decides to spill secrets about your relationship with my client, not only will I not help," "I got to make sure this doesn't go well... for either one of you."

"Look, I don't know about you, but I learned something about myself and what was lacking in our marriage." "[scoffs]" "I'd do something different with you, and you'd look at me like... like I had an effect on you again." "Really?" "You're trying to tell me that screwing other women for money made you a better husband?" "I was different." "And you with Simon, you were different." "Are you gonna deny it?"

"She's a big girl." "She'll call when she's ready." "You need to relax." "Here... it'll make you feel better." "Why are you still here?" "Some pretty bad things happened here today, Neil." "You shouldn't be alone." "I am sorry that a man had to die." "Really?" "'Cause you don't seem all that sorry." "Well, he broke into your home and tried to rape your wife." "Am I sorry he's dead?" "A little." "With every sip." "a little less." "Frankly, I've seen worse." "Maybe you don't see it yet, but this is not entirely a tragedy." "Karma has a way of sorting these things out." "It's been my experience that when things explode, people land where they were meant to land." "You needed to be free, darling." "And now you are-- free of all the secrets, the lies."

"All you need to do now is gently pull the bow and let the dress fall away." "You really think it's that easy?" "You may know how people tick, but you have no understanding of my relationship with Grace." "Oh, I think I do." "Grace is a lovely woman, Neil, but with her, you held yourself back."
