00:00:00♪
00:00:21Hello?
00:00:22♪
00:00:26You're kidding.
00:00:28What?
00:00:31When's she due?
00:00:33♪
00:00:38No, I'm happy for you.
00:00:40♪
00:00:47So when's the wedding?
00:00:51I don't know, I'll have to check and get back to you.
00:00:54Wow.
00:00:56This is really sudden.
00:00:59Yes, for you too, obviously.
00:01:04Bye.
00:01:09You're getting married immediately because Diane is pregnant.
00:01:14A shotgun wedding for Tom.
00:01:17My dad's having a baby.
00:01:19In December.
00:01:21Well, at least I know what to buy him for Christmas.
00:01:23What?
00:01:24Condoms.
00:01:27When are they getting married?
00:01:29They want us to be there so as soon as we can get back.
00:01:33You're going to be a big sister.
00:01:35♪
00:01:49I'm looking forward to being a big sister.
00:01:52You know, I have half siblings.
00:01:58Oh.
00:02:00They live in New York City.
00:02:03When my mother was upset, she used to say that my father left us because he loved his real family more.
00:02:11What a terrible thing to say to a child.
00:02:14Yeah, she was trouble.
00:02:17But she was beautiful.
00:02:19With dark hair and dark eyes.
00:02:25Do you have any photographs of her?
00:02:27A few.
00:02:28There are also some baby pictures of me as well.
00:02:31You've been holding out on me.
00:02:36They're in a drawer back in my study.
00:02:38I also have her diary and her father's pocket watch.
00:02:41I use it on occasion.
00:02:43Did you ever read the diary?
00:02:46No.
00:02:48If Sharon left me a diary, I would have read it.
00:02:52Do you have anything of hers?
00:02:55I sent my father a box of her stuff when she died.
00:03:00He should probably ask to see it.
00:03:07How much do you know about your father?
00:03:16Not much.
00:03:18He lived in New York, had a wife and children.
00:03:22And a year before he died, he added me as an equal beneficiary to his other children.
00:03:28Initially I declined the inheritance, but when I changed my mind, they tried to break the will.
00:03:35You never met them?
00:03:37You think they were in a hurry to meet the bastard who was still in the birthright?
00:03:41I'm sorry.
00:03:45What was your father's name?
00:03:50Owen Davies.
00:03:52Owen Davies.
00:03:55Promise me you won't look into my family.
00:04:00I promise.
00:04:11Are you hurt?
00:04:33Are you alright?
00:04:40Okay.
00:04:51What was your nightmare about?
00:04:55My biological family.
00:05:19I was with my mother in my old apartment.
00:05:23And I could hear her and my father arguing.
00:05:29My father was standing over her, shouting at her.
00:05:34I hit him.
00:05:36He shot me and went to the door.
00:05:41She crawled after him, begging him not to leave.
00:05:49Fucking bastard.
00:05:58I don't think that was the first time they fought.
00:06:05Can you imagine crawling after a man who hit you?
00:06:11I know my head was pretty messed up when I was with Simon.
00:06:17He was different.
00:06:20You were young.
00:06:23She thought she loved him.
00:06:44I can understand the anger you feel at your parents.
00:06:58But it isn't a healthy thing to hold on to.
00:07:07There might be terrible skeletons in my family's closet.
00:07:19Could you love me in spite of them?
00:07:25I've never loved you in spite of anything, Gabriel.
00:07:34I just love you.
00:08:00Thank you.
00:08:22This is ridiculous.
00:08:45What happened?
00:08:47I got an email from Paul.
00:08:52What did he say?
00:08:56I think we need to go our separate ways. You're married and I need to move on.
00:09:01Maybe this will be easier for me in the future.
00:09:06He doesn't want to be friends.
00:09:18If I'd lost you to him, I couldn't be friends with you.
00:09:24I'd simply have to love you from a distance.
00:09:26Why didn't he try and talk to me about this when we were in Oxford?
00:09:31He didn't want to upset you before your lecture.
00:09:38Did you know about this?
00:09:43So you and Paul discussed me?
00:09:46Briefly, yes.
00:09:49You should have told me.
00:09:50I'm telling you now.
00:09:52I thought Paul might change his mind, but it surprised me once again.
00:09:57You and your secrets.
00:09:59I don't keep secrets from you.
00:10:03If you want full disclosure, I will give it to you.
00:10:05But then I will ask you for full disclosure.
00:10:08For example, did you happen to have a conversation with Paul about dropping out of Harvard?
00:10:13What?
00:10:14He told me I had to make sure you don't abandon your dreams.
00:10:18So don't lecture me about keeping secrets, because I'm not the one having lunch with old flames telling them about our marital conflicts.
00:10:25It just came out.
00:10:27I was worried, and I needed someone to talk to, and I needed time to think.
00:10:31Time to think and going to someone else to talk about our problems are two different things.
00:10:36That was not the right thing to do, Julianne, and you know it.
00:10:40I tried to persuade Paul not to cut you off.
00:10:44I didn't want to see you hurt.
00:10:48What hurts is the fact that you don't trust me.
00:10:53I trust you.
00:10:55But not with your family history.
00:10:57You know what I know.
00:10:59My mother's family disowned her and left me to foster care.
00:11:03My father abandoned us.
00:11:06Do you want me to investigate such people?
00:11:09Discover more unsavory details?
00:11:11There has to be something in your family history worth knowing.
00:11:16Your family is part of you.
00:11:19If we have children, they'll ask about their grandparents.
00:11:24I won't have our children so polluted.
00:11:29A man as good and brilliant as you came from that pollution, and so will our children.
00:11:55Take your clothes off and lie on the bed.
00:11:59Now.
00:12:25On your stomach.
00:12:27Eyes closed.
00:12:45Eyes closed.
00:12:54Eyes closed.
00:13:24Breathe.
00:13:54Breathe.
00:14:00Do you trust me?
00:14:02Yes.
00:14:24I love you.
00:14:55Okay.
00:15:17Don't move.
00:15:24Don't move.
00:15:54Don't move.
00:16:24Okay.
00:16:26Okay.
00:16:54Okay.
00:17:08Hi, Dad.
00:17:09How are you doing?
00:17:11We're at the hospital.
00:17:13What's wrong?
00:17:16Yesterday we went for an ultrasound, but something was wrong with his heart.
00:17:20His?
00:17:22My son.
00:17:25It's going to be okay, honey.
00:17:31We just met with the cardiologist.
00:17:34What did the doctor say?
00:17:38The baby has hypoplastic left heart syndrome.
00:17:42What is that?
00:17:46He only has half a heart.
00:17:48Oh, my God.
00:17:50He can't die without surgery.
00:17:52They have to operate after he's born.
00:17:55Can they fix it?
00:17:59The surgery can make his heart do what it needs to do, but it can't give him a normal heart.
00:18:05What can I do?
00:18:08Pray.
00:18:13Please keep in touch and let me know what's going on.
00:18:18Okay.
00:18:28Does Tom have any health problems?
00:18:31Not that I know of.
00:18:34Both his parents had heart disease.
00:18:37You don't think this is genetic, do you?
00:18:47Yeah.
00:19:17Okay.
00:19:47Thank you.
00:20:17Thank you.
00:20:47Thank you.
00:21:03Gabriel?
00:21:06You don't smoke.
00:21:11Usually I choose cigars.
00:21:16Don't worry. It's coke.
00:21:19I'd prefer Lafroig.
00:21:28Did you go looking?
00:21:34What if I did?
00:21:47Good night, Gabriel.
00:21:53Wait.
00:21:56Are you healthy?
00:22:00It's after midnight and you're asking about my health?
00:22:03Just answer the question.
00:22:08Please.
00:22:11I have low blood pressure.
00:22:14I tend to have low iron levels, so I take a supplement.
00:22:19I didn't know that.
00:22:21My low blood pressure is probably genetic. My mother had it.
00:22:28Genetic.
00:22:31I don't know.
00:22:35Genetic.
00:22:53How did your mother die?
00:23:04Why are you asking me this?
00:23:08You told me your mother died while you were living with your father.
00:23:13I didn't know if she had health problems or if it was an accident.
00:23:18She was drunk and fell down the stairs and broke her neck.
00:23:23Happy now?
00:23:28Don't touch me.
00:23:31I love you.
00:23:33You can be a cold son of a bitch.
00:23:38Sit out here all night. Just don't try and mindfuck me.
00:23:41I'm not trying to mindfuck you, Julianne.
00:23:44Then warn me before you start spelunking through my unhappy memories.
00:23:50It isn't funny.
00:23:53Spelunking.
00:23:55Really?
00:23:59You have an enviable vocabulary.
00:24:21I'm sorry, Amina.
00:24:25Foul mood.
00:24:28I shouldn't say that on you.
00:24:31What's going on?
00:24:36You're upset.
00:24:39I'm sorry.
00:24:50Before we were together, when you'd get in a foul mood,
00:24:58what would you do?
00:25:03I'd drink.
00:25:06And do coke and...
00:25:08And?
00:25:14I'd fuck.
00:25:17Let's go.
00:25:19Where?
00:25:21To work out your foul mood.
00:25:24I don't think it's a good idea. I'm not myself.
00:25:28Would you hurt me?
00:25:30Of course not. Who do you think I am?
00:25:33I have a husband who needs to fuck away his bad mood, so let's go.
00:25:40I don't fuck you, Julianne.
00:25:42You'd rather I was someone else or you could.
00:25:44That is not true.
00:25:46What you crave, I need.
00:25:49Help me forget that I'm about to lose the only sibling I have ever had.
00:25:54Please.
00:26:03Please.
00:26:33Fuck.
00:26:49Watch. Eyes on the mirror.
00:27:04Eyes on the mirror.
00:27:10I told you to watch.
00:27:24This isn't fucking. It's a hell of a lot more.
00:27:27Always.
00:27:33Always.
00:28:03Cradiel.
00:28:06Are you all right?
00:28:08Yes.
00:28:10Give me a minute before you put me down.
00:28:14I'll make you think I'm finished with you.
00:28:18One.
00:28:33Two.
00:29:04Gabriel?
00:29:27Gabriel?
00:29:33Gabriel?
00:30:03Gabriel?
00:30:22I thought I told you I didn't want you swimming alone.
00:30:25I wouldn't have to swim alone if you didn't leave me.
00:30:33You know I like to run in the mornings.
00:30:35It's almost noon. You could have left him out.
00:30:38I'm going to have a shower. I'll be in my study all day.
00:30:42I'll take you for dinner in Torrey tonight.
00:30:44No.
00:30:47No?
00:30:48No, Gabriel. You can't run off to your study after treating me so coldly. No.
00:30:54I don't mean to be cold, Julianne.
00:30:58I have a lot on my mind.
00:31:01I hoped our activities would have helped.
00:31:17Julianne, I can make love to you all day.
00:31:21But that wouldn't solve my problem.
00:31:26Then tell me you love me.
00:31:30I love you.
00:31:37Go find your solutions.
00:31:40But don't forget, you aren't the only one in this house.
00:31:44I don't want to live with a ghost.
00:32:00I love you.
00:32:30I love you.
00:33:00I love you.
00:33:21It's late.
00:33:23Go back to sleep.
00:33:26Hey.
00:33:29Don't I get a kiss?
00:33:47You're perched on the edge of the bed like a gargoyle glowering.
00:33:54I'm not glowering.
00:33:57Then kiss me like you mean it.
00:34:00I'm not a glowering gargoyle-like husband of mine.
00:34:04A gargoyle?
00:34:06You're a hell of a mancico, Mrs. Emerson.
00:34:11Tell me why you're so grim.
00:34:17You said I wished you were someone else so I could fuck you.
00:34:22Don't say that again.
00:34:25I'm sorry.
00:34:29I hoped you could work out your bad mood with me.
00:34:36I was selfish.
00:34:38If you were selfish, then so was I.
00:34:42You promised we could be adventurous.
00:34:45Last night was one of our adventures.
00:34:49In giving, we both received.
00:34:55I don't think that St. Francis would approve of you taking part of his prayer and applying it to our sexual activities.
00:35:03Francis believed in love and marriage, you'd understand.
00:35:07At the very least, if he disapproved, you'd be silent about it.
00:35:15If I could stay with you forever, then you would still surprise me.
00:35:21I'm glad, because you're stuck with me.
00:35:26I'm not ashamed of what we do with our bodies, because it also involves our souls.
00:35:44Tell me why you're upset.
00:35:49I'm sorry.
00:35:53I'm sorry.
00:35:57I'm sorry.
00:36:01I'm sorry.
00:36:05I'm sorry.
00:36:09Tell me why you're upset.
00:36:18I need a little time.
00:36:23But you have my heart.
00:36:27Never that dead.
00:36:39Ciao Gabriele.
00:36:41Hi, so nice that I finally meet you.
00:36:45Okay, come this way.
00:37:09Arrived, welcome back.
00:37:17Go play.
00:37:20Children.
00:37:26I'm really happy that you're here.
00:37:29Thank you.
00:37:39Now we want to thank everyone together,
00:37:43the aunt and uncle Emerson for their generosity.
00:37:47Thank you.
00:37:49Thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart.
00:37:53Let's play.
00:37:57Let's play.
00:38:01Let's play.
00:38:06Let's play.
00:38:12Are you Superman?
00:38:14Yes.
00:38:16Superman.
00:38:18You have Clark Kent's eyes.
00:38:26He's Superman, he's Superman, he's Superman.
00:38:33I'm uncle Gabriele.
00:38:36She's aunt Giulia and she's my wife.
00:38:39I'm Louis Lane.
00:38:41Louis Lane, Louis Lane.
00:38:45Fly, fly, fly, fly, fly, fly, fly.
00:38:51Nobody knows that Clark Kent is Superman,
00:38:55so you have to help me keep a secret.
00:39:02Go away.
00:39:10She's asking you to pick her up, Man of Steel.
00:39:18She usually avoids strangers.
00:39:21She hasn't spoken since she arrived almost a year ago.
00:39:25Why?
00:39:27Trauma.
00:39:29Maria needs a family.
00:39:31Is it difficult to find families?
00:39:34Sometimes.
00:39:39Get him, get him.
00:39:40I'll take him, I'll take him, don't worry.
00:39:43Come with me.
00:39:48I love Maria.
00:39:51She's so pretty.
00:39:56Do you want to go home?
00:40:16You could have wine.
00:40:18I'm fine with water, Superman.
00:40:22I rather like the idea of you being the handsome
00:40:26but slightly nerdy professor by day
00:40:29and the sexy man of steel by night.
00:40:32What did I say about calling me a nerd?
00:40:39I can show you some steel tonight.
00:40:42I'm counting on it.
00:40:46I never thought of you as Louis Lane before.
00:40:50I thought you were in love with Beatrice
00:40:53when really it was Louis Lane.
00:40:56We need to switch literary genres.
00:40:59Hardly.
00:41:01But a little role-playing might be interesting, Miss Lane.
00:41:07I look forward to that.
00:41:21Something happened today, didn't it?
00:41:29Seeing you with the children.
00:41:34You're unnatural.
00:41:39I can't stand to leave them there.
00:41:44You're unnatural.
00:41:48I can't stand to leave them there.
00:41:52The staff love them.
00:41:55They're safe.
00:42:00We should have taught Maria.
00:42:07Sweetheart, we aren't in the best position
00:42:11to take home a toddler.
00:42:14What if you had help?
00:42:17I'm owed a sabbatical that's part of my agreement with BU.
00:42:21You use your sabbatical.
00:42:23Why not?
00:42:26Neither one of us knows very much about caring for a toddler.
00:42:32We have Rebecca.
00:42:37You've spoken to her about this?
00:42:40No, she mentioned she hoped she'd be with us for a long time.
00:42:46Long enough to see us start a family.
00:42:54I'm not your enemy, Julianne.
00:42:57I'm not trying to find ways to sabotage your education or your life.
00:43:03I feel as if the slightest disturbance will cause me to lose my focus and I'll flunk.
00:43:09Anxiety over starting a family is legitimate.
00:43:14But I think you'd be anxious about your program anyway.
00:43:20And that has to do with the way you see yourself, not with the way you see the program.
00:43:26That's not true.
00:43:28I felt the same way at Harvard.
00:43:34You can do it.
00:43:43I'd like to take Maria home with us.
00:43:48It's not in Maria's best interest for us to take her now.
00:43:55The Julianne I know would give a close-up of her back to a homeless person.
00:44:01Taking her to a place where she doesn't know the language away from her friends would upset her.
00:44:08I won't let you do that and I don't care if you think I'm being a cold-hearted bitch.
00:44:24Fuck!
00:44:55Fuck!
00:45:07I'm sorry.
00:45:24I'm sorry.
00:45:42I'm sorry, too.
00:45:48You were right about Maria.
00:45:54I don't think you're a bitch.
00:45:57You're my beloved.
00:46:04Then you need to be kind to me.
00:46:10The past little while's been really difficult.
00:46:16I don't want our marriage to be like this.
00:46:24I will find a way to make it up to you.
00:46:28I promise.
00:46:34Tell me what's wrong.
00:46:42I will.
00:46:47Just give me a little more time.
00:46:55I promise.
00:47:07Darling, I've gone to run errands.
00:47:09I'll be back in time to get ready for the exhibition opening tonight.
00:47:13I love you and I like my body when it's with your body.
00:47:18Jean.
00:47:24I love you.
00:47:54I love you.
00:47:56I love you.
00:47:58I love you.
00:48:23Excuse me.
00:48:25Do you know an older man who lives nearby?
00:48:29No.
00:48:30I'm sorry.
00:48:31Thank you.
00:48:32Have a nice day.
00:48:55I love you.
00:49:25I'd like to know how I can help find families for these orphans.
00:49:45Julianne, I'm back.
00:49:55I'm back.
00:50:26Where's my shirt?
00:50:28It's on the chair.
00:50:55God, I'm glad I bought these.
00:51:02Stop that.
00:51:04I'm sorry.
00:51:05No one notices it.
00:51:07I think it makes you look rugged.
00:51:11When will I see you?
00:51:13We need to cool off.
00:51:15But things have been going well.
00:51:17I work for your father now.
00:51:19I'm glad.
00:51:22But things have been going well.
00:51:24I work for your father now.
00:51:26And I told him we were casual.
00:51:33He wants me to take Senator Hudson's daughter to dinner.
00:51:36What?
00:51:38Don't get hysterical.
00:51:42I won't. I'm sorry.
00:51:44Hopefully, I can persuade her to put in a good word for my father.
00:51:52We could really use his endorsement.
00:51:55Are you going to fuck her?
00:51:57What, are you kidding?
00:51:59Her family's religious. She's a virgin.
00:52:03I had enough of that shit with Julia.
00:52:05Religion didn't keep Jules from going down on you.
00:52:07You keep your mouth shut about Julia.
00:52:09I don't need her asshole boyfriend fucking things up for me.
00:52:13He's her asshole husband now.
00:52:17I don't care what he is.
00:52:20We're finally getting what we want.
00:52:24We just need to wait until after the election.
00:52:30Well, I can be patient.
00:52:33But I think you need a reminder of who you're walking out on.
00:52:50I'm sorry.
00:53:08He won't hurt you again.
00:53:16I heard from my dad.
00:53:18They want to get married Labor Day weekend.
00:53:21The baby?
00:53:23As good as can be expected.
00:53:25Dad feels pretty helpless.
00:53:31He wants to protect me. There's nothing he can do.
00:53:41This reminds me of our first trip to Florence.
00:53:44Getting ready before the Uffizi.
00:53:49I was just your girlfriend then.
00:53:51Tonight, I'm accompanying you as your wife.
00:53:54You were never just my girlfriend. You were my lover.
00:53:57And we're still lovers.
00:53:59And I love you more now than before.
00:54:05Your love has healed me in so many ways.
00:54:09I don't know why you persist in being so sweet.
00:54:15While I'm shaving.
00:54:21The guests of honor can't be late.
00:54:24We had a fight. We made up. You owe me make-up sacks.
00:54:28I really need to get ready.
00:54:31Look at my hair.
00:54:33Fine. Don't be surprised if I spirit you off to a corridor and have my way with you.
00:54:40I'm counting on it, Superman.
00:54:49I'm sorry.
00:54:51I'm sorry.
00:54:53I'm sorry.
00:54:56I'm sorry.
00:55:11If they hold you out on me, Mrs. Emerson...
00:55:18You're not the only one with secrets, Professor.
00:55:22But I could arrange a private viewing.
00:55:26In a dark corner at the Offizie Gallery?
00:55:45What did I do to deserve you?
00:55:49You deserve happiness.
00:56:14Professor!
00:56:17Welcome again, Signore.
00:56:20You will be invited to open the exhibition.
00:56:22We will view the collections, enjoy a reception, and later, dinner.
00:56:27May I introduce you to Dr. Vitali, the director of the gallery?
00:56:31Welcome. Welcome.
00:56:33Thank you. My wife, Julianne Emerson.
00:56:40Ah, you know, Professor Bacciani, I assume.
00:56:43And his wife.
00:56:46Ah, shall we?
00:56:48Shall we?
00:57:08We're indebted to Professor Emerson and Signora Emerson
00:57:14for allowing us the privilege of looking upon these full complements of 100 images
00:57:22that have not been viewed in public since, perhaps, their creation.
00:57:35Thank you.
00:57:37Thank you all for being here with us tonight.
00:57:41It would be very unkind of me not to mention the creator of this wonderful event.
00:57:47The person who is here with me today is my wife, Julianne Emerson,
00:57:51and I owe her this wonderful evening.
00:57:56Through her words, her gestures, her actions,
00:58:02I discovered what it means to be altruistic, what it means to be good.
00:58:08Therefore, I thank you, but above all, I thank you.
00:58:38Thank you.
00:59:08Thank you.
00:59:39Good evening.
00:59:43Evening.
00:59:44A remarkable evening.
00:59:47It's generous of you to share your illustrations.
00:59:52How fortunate for you that you acquired them in secret and not on the open market.
01:00:03I come myself.
01:00:06Lucky.
01:00:09Thank you.
01:00:12Enjoy your evening.
01:00:16Who was that?
01:00:17I have no idea.
01:00:19If he moves in your direction, please walk the other way.
01:00:22I didn't like the way he was looking at you.
01:00:29It's a good thing I have Superman to protect me.
01:00:32I promise to avoid all the handsome men here tonight.
01:00:35You find him handsome?
01:00:37In the way a work of art is handsome, not the way you are.
01:00:42And if you kiss me now, I'll forget him entirely.
01:01:05Thank you.
01:01:21I've made an addition to this room since your last visit.
01:01:36Thank you.
01:01:48Those are the words Dante speaks when he sees Beatrice for the first time in Purgatory.
01:01:56You're my Beatrice.
01:01:59My sticky little leaf.
01:02:02My beautiful wife.
01:02:06I wanted to show you how important you are to me.
01:02:24I take it you're impressed with the exhibition, Mrs. Emerson.
01:02:27Yes.
01:02:30But I'd like you to take the photo down.
01:02:32It's a magnificent gesture.
01:02:35I don't want to be on display.
01:02:37It's how he wished to give us a gift to thank us.
01:02:41He agreed on displaying the picture.
01:02:43And then he gave us one hour on this floor all to ourselves.
01:02:55Let's go.
01:02:57Where?
01:02:58Makeup sex.
01:02:59Museum sex. Corridor sex. I don't care what you call it.
01:03:03Now's our chance.
01:03:06You surprise me, Mrs. Emerson.
01:03:09How so?
01:03:11Because you're supposed to be shy.
01:03:14I want a heart-stopping, mind-blowing orgasm up against a Florentine wall.
01:03:21Screw shyness.
01:03:22Screw shyness.
01:03:34Now tell me who's handsome.
01:03:36You are.
01:03:45Where are your pennies?
01:03:47Pennies just getting away.
01:03:52I'm sorry.
01:04:22I'm sorry.
01:04:52I'm sorry.
01:05:22I'm sorry.
01:05:42Would you be willing to speak to our potential darling?
01:05:46Go.
01:05:53Thank you.
01:06:05Good evening.
01:06:09I regret what happened in Oxford.
01:06:14Please.
01:06:15Professor Picton was unhappy with my friend's behavior.
01:06:18So was I.
01:06:20If you'll excuse me.
01:06:22Perhaps you could mention this to Professor Picton.
01:06:26I'm applying for a job with Columbia.
01:06:28I wouldn't want any bad feelings to interfere.
01:06:32I don't think Catherine would interfere with another department's search process.
01:06:36I would consider it a favor.
01:06:38I've already done you a favor.
01:06:40And what would that be?
01:06:42I prevented my friend from sleeping with your husband.
01:06:46What?
01:06:48Your husband was going to meet Christa.
01:06:51I persuaded her to turn her attention elsewhere.
01:06:55How dare you come into this place of beauty and say such ugly things to me.
01:07:01I mean no harm.
01:07:02You and your friend mean nothing but harm.
01:07:05I don't care what she told you, what her plans were.
01:07:08You didn't prevent my husband from doing anything.
01:07:10Do you hear me?
01:07:13All men require a little recreation.
01:07:17It's too much to expect one woman to be enough.
01:07:20Women are not items on a buffet.
01:07:24And my husband doesn't share your misogyny.
01:07:26Get out.
01:07:29Get out.
01:07:34I've been looking for you.
01:07:36Let's go.
01:07:38There are important people we need to speak to.
01:07:43Let's go.
01:07:51What happened?
01:07:53Professor Pachani just cornered me.
01:07:56That fucking bastard.
01:07:58Are you alright?
01:07:59I called him a misogynist and told him to go and I pointed at him.
01:08:10Excellent.
01:08:12Not excellent.
01:08:13Embarrassing.
01:08:14Everybody heard me.
01:08:15I doubt very much that anyone will blame you.
01:08:18He wanted me to tell Catherine that he dealt with Krista.
01:08:21He's after a job at Columbia.
01:08:23He'll never get it.
01:08:25Catherine was Lucia Brini's supervisor.
01:08:27Lucia is a friend of mine.
01:08:29She'll see it through him.
01:08:31He also said he prevented you from having a tryst with Krista.
01:08:42Let's go.
01:08:51Krista propositioned me right before your lecture.
01:08:53You should have told me.
01:08:55When you keep things from me, it puts a wedge between us.
01:08:58Others can exploit that wedge.
01:09:02I deserve to know who is making a play for my husband and when.
01:09:09Agreed.
01:09:12So, you're forgiven.
01:09:16Since my good mood from my first parade to museum sex has been ruined, you're going to have to fix that.
01:09:24I'm yours to command.
01:09:26Good.
01:09:28Because my command is pleasure and I like it now.
01:09:37Then come.
01:09:42I love you.
01:10:12I love you.
01:10:42I love you.
01:11:12I love you.
01:11:13I love you.
01:11:43I love you.
01:11:45I love you.
01:11:47I love you.
01:11:48I love you.
01:12:12I love you.
01:12:43Gosh.
01:12:46It's a wedding invitation.
01:12:57Gabriel, I would never be gauche enough to invite you to my wedding.
01:13:03I wanted you to know I'm getting married.
01:13:06Now that we're both happy, things are as they should be.
01:13:12Think so, Polina?
01:13:19How do you feel?
01:13:22She's found the family she was looking for.
01:13:29And she has you to thank.
01:13:32Me?
01:13:34You persuaded me to let her go.
01:13:37That she'd never find her own happiness while she was dependent on me.
01:13:43You were right.
01:13:46And you were right about Maria too.
01:13:49And you were right about Maria too.
01:14:02Sometimes loving someone means that you have to let them go.
01:14:08I'll never let you go.
01:14:11I'll challenge anyone to try to take you away from me.
01:14:15I'm not going anywhere.
01:14:18I'm not going anywhere.
01:14:48I love you.
01:15:07Polina.
01:15:09You look tired.
01:15:19I'm sorry.
01:15:27I don't expect you to forgive me.
01:15:31But I wanted to say that I'm sorry.
01:15:35I was callous and selfish.
01:15:43Why now?
01:15:49It's because of her, isn't it?
01:15:53This isn't about her.
01:15:54Oh yes it is.
01:15:57I was a fool to settle for what we were.
01:16:00I couldn't see my way out of it.
01:16:05Now I can.
01:16:08And I swear to God, I'm not going back.
01:16:13All these years I was so worried my parents would slam the door in my face.
01:16:18But I realized before I even entered the house that I could have come home years ago.
01:16:24The prodigal daughter.
01:16:30And you can't understand my desire for forgiveness.
01:16:35I'm just wondering why you're asking for this now.
01:16:41You were my friend.
01:16:45And Maya...
01:16:46I can't talk about her.
01:16:49She's happy now.
01:16:52You know I don't believe that. When you're dead, you're dead.
01:16:55I know that that isn't true.
01:16:56Oh, stop.
01:17:00We did this one beautiful thing together.
01:17:04Let's not mourn her.
01:17:07By living empty, wasted lives.
01:17:10How dare you?
01:17:12You come to me to ease your conscience and say something like that?
01:17:15I'm here to make amends.
01:17:20My baby is dead, and I can't have another.
01:17:25Make amends for that.
01:17:31I can't.
01:17:34You get to go home to your girlfriend knowing she can give you a child.
01:17:39What happened to me can never be undone.
01:17:46I'm sorry.
01:17:57I'm sorry for everything.
01:18:00Wait.
01:18:06I met someone.
01:18:10Keith is a widower with two little girls.
01:18:16They call me Auntie Paulina.
01:18:22He loves me and his girls need me.
01:18:32I forgive you, Gabriel.
01:18:35But I won't have this conversation again.
01:18:38I made my peace with the past.
01:18:46Goodbye, Paulina.
01:18:48Be happy.
01:19:15Goodbye.
01:19:37You made an appointment to see your doctor?
01:19:43No.
01:19:46I'm not having my vasectomy reversed.
01:19:50I'd like us to pursue adoption.
01:20:01Tell me what's troubling you.
01:20:06I don't know how anyone could stand to be near me.
01:20:09I was terrible to my family and Paulina.
01:20:15That's in the past.
01:20:17What if Paulina's miscarriage was my fault?
01:20:20What if her miscarriage was a result of a genetic abnormality?
01:20:26I told you I wanted a child, but I never stopped thinking about the risks.
01:20:32Miscarriages are common.
01:20:35It's tragic, but true.
01:20:38What if the same thing happens to us?
01:20:43It would be devastating.
01:20:46But this is the world we live in. There is illness and death.
01:20:51We can't pretend that we're immune.
01:20:54We can avoid unacceptable risks.
01:21:00So you don't want to have a baby with me?
01:21:02So you don't want to have a baby with me?
01:21:08All this talk of Paulina, I know I shouldn't, but I envy her.
01:21:14You shared a life-changing experience with her that we may not be able to have.
01:21:23I thought you'd be relieved.
01:21:26Nothing in what you've said relieves me.
01:21:29And you certainly don't look happy.
01:21:32Because I want what I can have.
01:21:37I can go through what I went through with Paulina again.
01:21:43We'll adopt.
01:21:49So that's it?
01:21:56No.
01:22:00I know you want to protect me, and that is admirable, but let's be clear, it goes deeper than that.
01:22:06It's wrapped up in what happened between your father and mother.
01:22:10This isn't about that.
01:22:12This is about choosing the risk I'm willing to take.
01:22:19You could wrap me in bubble wrap and I could still get sick.
01:22:24And as much as I don't want to say it, someday you're going to die, but I choose to love you now and build a life with you knowing that I could lose you.
01:22:35I'm asking you to make the same choice. Take that risk with me.
01:22:40I have no idea what's in my medical history.
01:22:44Some of your relatives are still alive. You could speak with them.
01:22:50I'd rather burn in hell.
01:22:51Listen to yourself.
01:22:58My beautiful, broken angel.
01:23:21I love you.
01:23:52What are you doing?
01:23:55Showing you how much I love you.
01:24:08You did this for me once.
01:24:11Felt like a baptism.
01:24:14You did this for me once.
01:24:17Felt like a baptism.
01:24:43You did this for me once.
01:24:46Felt like a baptism.
01:24:49You did this for me once.
01:24:52Felt like a baptism.
01:24:55You did this for me once.
01:24:58Felt like a baptism.
01:25:01You did this for me once.
01:25:04Felt like a baptism.
01:25:07You did this for me once.
01:25:10Felt like a baptism.
01:25:13You did this for me once.
01:25:16Felt like a baptism.
01:25:19You did this for me once.
01:25:22Felt like a baptism.
01:25:25You did this for me once.
01:25:28Felt like a baptism.
01:25:31You did this for me once.
01:25:34Felt like a baptism.
01:25:37You did this for me once.
01:25:40Felt like a baptism.
01:25:43You did this for me once.
01:25:46Felt like a baptism.
01:25:49You did this for me once.
01:25:52Felt like a baptism.
01:25:55You did this for me once.
01:25:58Felt like a baptism.
01:26:01You did this for me once.
01:26:04Felt like a baptism.
01:26:07You did this for me once.
01:26:10Felt like a baptism.
01:26:13You did this for me once.
01:26:16Felt like a baptism.
01:26:19You did this for me once.
01:26:22Felt like a baptism.
01:26:25You did this for me once.
01:26:28Felt like a baptism.
01:26:31You did this for me once.
01:26:34Felt like a baptism.
01:26:37You did this for me once.
01:26:40Felt like a baptism.
01:26:43You did this for me once.
01:26:46Felt like a baptism.
01:26:49You did this for me once.
01:26:52Felt like a baptism.
01:26:55You did this for me once.
01:26:58Felt like a baptism.
01:27:01You did this for me once.
01:27:04Felt like a baptism.
01:27:07You did this for me once.
01:27:10Felt like a baptism.
01:27:14You did this for me once.
01:27:17I hurt you again and again.
01:27:22And yet you're still getting.
01:27:28Why?
01:27:32Because I love you.
01:27:38Because I have compassion for you.
01:27:44Because I forgive you.
01:27:51I keep waiting for God to take you away.
01:27:57You don't have to be afraid of being happy.
01:28:03Thinking that he wants to take that happiness away from you, that's not who he is.
01:28:09How can you be sure?
01:28:13God doesn't give you blessings just to strip them away.
01:28:28I'm not going to let you delay having your vasectomy reversed.
01:28:33I want to have a family with you and I don't care what your DNA says.
01:28:40I thought you were not ready for baby.
01:28:42I'm not.
01:28:44But if we want to have a baby, we need to start discussing it with the doctor.
01:28:55What about adoption?
01:28:58We can do both.
01:29:02You aren't a prisoner of your history. I believe in you.
01:29:08How I wish you'd believe in yourself.
01:29:13These hands are yours.
01:29:16You can use them for good or evil.
01:29:20And no amount of nature, biology, or DNA can determine those decisions for you.
01:29:29What will I pass on our child?
01:29:34My mother was a doctor.
01:29:36What will I pass on our child?
01:29:41My mother was an alcoholic.
01:29:44If you're focused on family history, you should ask what I'm going to pass on.
01:29:53Of all the things you could pass, he would only pass beauty and kindness.
01:30:05And love.
01:30:09That's what I was going to say to you.
01:30:22Of all the gifts God gave me, the greatest one is you.
01:30:34I love you.
01:30:51Wow, April.
01:31:00Let's do it again.
01:31:04Okay.
01:31:11Since I'm beginning my investigation of my family, I'm reading my mother's diary.
01:31:27This was one of my favorite toys.
01:31:30I seem to remember my father giving it to me.
01:31:35That can't be right.
01:31:38No matter what you discover, we'll face it together.
01:31:49I received an email from the conference telling me that a European press has agreed to publish a few of the papers.
01:31:58Your first publication. Congratulations.
01:32:01I'm going to need a favor.
01:32:05For you, my love, I would endeavor to pluck the stars from the sky only to shower them at your feet.
01:32:14How do you do that?
01:32:16Do what?
01:32:18Say things like that. That's beautiful.
01:32:21I spent years studying poetry, Mrs. Emerson. It's in my DNA.
01:32:26It certainly is.
01:32:27It certainly is.
01:32:33My paper needs some revisions. Will you make some suggestions?
01:32:37Yes. I'll try not to be a bastard when I give you my comments.
01:32:41I'd appreciate that.
01:32:43Now, can we have desk sex, or do you want to chat all afternoon?
01:32:54Desk sex, please.
01:32:55Your wish is my command.
01:33:25Thank you.
01:33:46The painting's called Angela Musicate.
01:33:49I know you've been hesitant about preparing for the baby, but I thought the angel would be an expression of hope.
01:33:59Thank you, honey.
01:34:02That's very sweet.
01:34:10So you going to decorate?
01:34:12A few things. Maybe not everything.
01:34:15Whatever you want.
01:34:19Would you like to take those boxes with you?
01:34:22I think they belong to your mother.
01:34:24What?
01:34:28If you don't want them, or you don't want them right now, that's fine.
01:34:34I'd like to look at mom's stuff.
01:34:37Not all fired up about having this conversation.
01:34:40Honey.
01:34:41Alright, I'll ask Gabriel to come and help me carry them.
01:34:53I don't think I have the energy to celebrate your birthday tonight, Jules. I'm sorry.
01:34:57Why don't you go take a nap?
01:34:59I tried. My husband followed me. There was no napping, but there was lots of baby making.
01:35:05I need a vacation.
01:35:07From baby making?
01:35:08Yes, dammit. We are having sex all of the time, and I'm not getting pregnant. I'm beginning to feel like a machine.
01:35:15God, what have I wandered into?
01:35:17Nothing. Skip dinner. Go lie down in our room. Join us for dessert.
01:35:21Thank you.
01:35:26Tell me we aren't going to be like that.
01:35:28We aren't going to be like that. I promise.
01:35:33I'll be in the study.
01:35:39Okay.
01:35:54What are you reading?
01:35:59It's my mother's diary. I found something from Grace.
01:36:09It's names, addresses, and phone numbers. One is for Jean Emerson of Staten Island. My grandmother.
01:36:21I don't remember Grace telling me she spoke with my grandmother.
01:36:26There was no point in burdening you with everything that happened.
01:36:31I apologize. We should have told you.
01:36:35You and Grace took me in when my own flesh and blood is over me.
01:36:40You have always been our son.
01:36:53Would it offend you if I tried to find out about my biological parents?
01:36:58Of course not. It's your heritage. You have a right to know.
01:37:06Julia thinks that if God was a father, he must be like you.
01:37:17That's a high compliment, but an unwarranted one. I am imperfect just like everyone else.
01:37:25But that I could have one quarter of your imperfection.
01:37:28Grace and I always thought of you as a gift. But when she died, I realized something.
01:37:38I know you feel gratitude to us for adopting you, as if we did you a favor.
01:37:46But you're looking at things the wrong way.
01:37:50God gave you to us because he knew we needed you.
01:37:56We needed you.
01:37:58I love you.
01:38:00I love you.
01:38:02The whole life. Three boxes. What a waste.
01:38:33Why don't my mother love me?
01:38:54She kept the photos.
01:38:57It's clear she loved you when you were born. You can see it in her face.
01:39:02But she loved alcohol more. I can't contemplate choosing alcohol and men over my child.
01:39:10You've never struggled with addiction. I'm sure there were times where your mother wanted to stop.
01:39:20It's a pile of junk.
01:39:22Your baby things aren't junk.
01:39:27We can frame the photos. Someday, if we have a girl, you can show her how beautiful her mama looked when she was a baby.
01:39:39Thank you.
01:39:53Red roses.
01:39:57The first time we went out, you bought white.
01:40:01Well, white symbolizes virginity, and that doesn't apply anymore.
01:40:07Hey, April, wait.
01:40:09Did you tell all your friends? I'm sure they had a big laugh.
01:40:13Take the nice Christian girl out and she gives it up like it's prom night.
01:40:15I came here because I wanted to see you.
01:40:18You want me to take you out to dinner?
01:40:21What's your angle?
01:40:26I like you.
01:40:28That's it.
01:40:30Isn't that reason enough?
01:40:32I like you.
01:40:34That's it.
01:40:36Isn't that reason enough?
01:40:55Well?
01:40:58Good evening to you, too.
01:41:01I'm still getting used to these.
01:41:03I only need them for reading.
01:41:05You look like a sexy librarian.
01:41:07We should take them into the study and introduce them to the wonders of desk sex.
01:41:12You aren't going to distract me. I want to hear about your appointment.
01:41:21What if I promise you consecutive orgasms?
01:41:26That sounds great, but I want to hear about the doctor.
01:41:28And if I promise you kitchen table sex, the likes of which you've never experienced before?
01:41:35I would say you're worrying me because you're trying to distract me.
01:41:47He's confident we could do artificial insemination if the reversal is unsuccessful.
01:41:53But I still have to be tested to see if I'm producing viable spur.
01:41:56And?
01:41:58And even if it performs the reversal, the probability of success is low.
01:42:05Chance of pregnancy is 30%.
01:42:11When would we know if the procedure is successful?
01:42:14After next week. I could be fertile within a few months or a year or...
01:42:22Never.
01:42:24Never.
01:42:35He suggested he was in a gynecologist to see if there are any fertility issues on your side.
01:42:41I'm due for one.
01:42:43They also said we should abstain from sex for three weeks after my procedure.
01:42:49He told me there cannot be any ejaculation.
01:42:53Three weeks? Scheisse.
01:42:56So sure we should do this?
01:42:59I was celibate for a lot longer than that.
01:43:02You'll need me to be your nurse.
01:43:05I like the sound of that.
01:43:08A nurse, a librarian, a student, a professor.
01:43:17Is there no answer to your talents, Mrs. Emerson?
01:43:20None. In fact, I have another secret identity.
01:43:26Oh, really?
01:43:32I'm also Lois Lane.
01:43:34Lois Lane.
01:43:38Well, Lois, I had a long day fighting crime.
01:44:01I'm sorry, could you repeat that?
01:44:04Fibroids. A benign growth on the uterus. They're common. You have two of them.
01:44:11Two?
01:44:13Will she need surgery?
01:44:16We're inclined to leave them. We will put you on birth control. The hormones in the pill slow the fibroids' growth.
01:44:23What about fertility?
01:44:25I don't think fertility will be a problem. However, fibroids tend to grow during pregnancy.
01:44:30We'll schedule another ultrasound in about six months just to check them. But for now, I take this as good news.
01:44:54Are you nervous?
01:44:57Not really. But I'm glad you're coming with me.
01:45:02Once I finish shaving, you'll have to give me something to tide me over for the next three weeks.
01:45:07I can do that.
01:45:12I can't shave while you're touching me.
01:45:16Maybe I should do it for you. You enjoy feeding me. Perhaps I'll enjoy shaving you.
01:45:27Thank you.
01:45:38Will you teach me?
01:45:41Shaving is overrated.
01:45:43I'd like to do this for you.
01:45:45Okay.
01:45:56Shave in the direction the hair grows. Don't apply pressure. The blade is very sharp.
01:46:16You want me to shave you half-naked?
01:46:19No. I want you to shave me completely naked.
01:46:46That's so easy. And it's so simple.
01:46:52I'm not sure that's a good idea. I'll nick you.
01:46:58Perhaps it will be a good exercise in self-control for both of us.
01:47:03I guess you must trust me.
01:47:07What do I have to trust in anyone?
01:47:15Okay.
01:47:37I think we're finished.
01:47:39I don't think we're finished yet.
01:47:42Then drop the towel, Professor.
01:47:45Okay.
01:48:02How is he?
01:48:04The surgery went well. It was complicated, but nothing unexpected.
01:48:08He's on intravenous, and I want him to stay overnight. You can go see him now.
01:48:15Okay.
01:48:35Hi, baby.
01:48:45Pretty baby.
01:49:05Chicken soup for dinner. With homemade rolls.
01:49:10Delicious. Thank you.
01:49:12I didn't expect Gabriel to be so weak after his procedure.
01:49:16He insists he's going to work tomorrow, but I don't see how he can. He's in pain.
01:49:21Men make the worst patients. They don't take their medication. They don't do what they're told.
01:49:26They won't admit when they're sick. They're like cats.
01:49:29I'll remember that.
01:49:31In fact, it's probably easier to give a pill to a cat than to a man.
01:49:35Then again,
01:49:38a man can't scratch you.
01:49:40It's a good thing he's upstairs. He'd be cross with us comparing him with a cat.
01:49:45Well.
01:49:57So what does Kathleen have to say?
01:50:00She's coming to Harford.
01:50:03She's coming to Harvard in January to give a series of lectures.
01:50:11Jeremy Martin has also been invited to give a paper.
01:50:14Not looking forward to that confrontation.
01:50:17Can you smooth things over?
01:50:19I don't know.
01:50:20I don't know.
01:50:29I can't imagine Catherine having a tawdry affair with an old married Oxford professor.
01:50:36Ol Hut was considered handsome in his day.
01:50:41She had to know it was wrong. Not only because of her career, but because he was married.
01:50:46If she ever felt one-tenth the love I felt for you,
01:50:51I can understand why she was led astray.
01:50:56Now that I'm married, however, if someone were to lure you away...
01:51:01I love you more than before we were married.
01:51:05Marriage is the strangest thing.
01:51:08Almost without realizing it, I feel as if our hearts became knitted together.
01:51:12Marriage is a sacrament.
01:51:16And of course, there's the sex we're no longer having.
01:51:20Three weeks is almost up.
01:51:23You better inform your professors you won't be in class that day.
01:51:32Have you found out anything about your family yet?
01:51:37My lawyer is a lawyer.
01:51:40My lawyer was supposed to get a copy of the coroner's report on my mother
01:51:46and health information about her parents and my father's family, but I haven't heard anything.
01:51:52No one is going to give your lawyer that kind of information.
01:51:56Information can be bought.
01:51:59Have you ever bought information like that?
01:52:02Why?
01:52:04For you.
01:52:06What kind of information?
01:52:09I ensured Simon and Natalie would never bother you again.
01:52:21Tom tells me you broke my niece's heart.
01:52:24I should be tuning you out rather than doing a job for you.
01:52:27This is for her.
01:52:29The girl tried to blackmail her, the boy fucking bit her and threatened to rape her.
01:52:34Leverage.
01:52:36Let's get them to turn over whatever they have on Jules.
01:52:39And I'll have a conversation with Simon and Natalie about what'll happen if they don't.
01:52:44Intern from the senator's office.
01:52:47College student?
01:52:49High school. 17.
01:52:51Fuck.
01:52:53Senator Talbert's making a bid for the White House. He'll comply.
01:52:57Shite.
01:52:58Senator Talbert's making a bid for the White House. He'll comply.
01:53:02Scheisse.
01:53:04Why didn't you tell me?
01:53:06I didn't want you knowing anything about it if there was a chance they decided to go to the police.
01:53:12Thank you.
01:53:15I should probably thank Uncle Jack too.
01:53:18They wouldn't bother you again.
01:53:29Thank you.
01:53:42How'd you sleep?
01:53:44Good. Sleep better with you than without you.
01:53:46Yeah, me too.
01:53:54But I feel guilty.
01:53:55Guilty?
01:53:57Why?
01:53:59Because we're sleeping together and we aren't married.
01:54:03Sex isn't bad.
01:54:06But I was taught to wait and I didn't.
01:54:09You were taught to wait because your parents didn't want some asshole taking advantage of you.
01:54:13Don't cuss.
01:54:15Sorry. Your parents were trying to protect you.
01:54:22But our situation's different.
01:54:23How's it different?
01:54:29I like having sex with you.
01:54:31But I also enjoy your company.
01:54:34I can let my guard down when I'm with you.
01:54:37I don't have to be Senator Talbert's son.
01:54:42I can be myself.
01:54:53I love you, Simon.
01:54:58I love you too.
01:55:17What?
01:55:19Did you forget what day it is?
01:55:20No.
01:55:22Our special day is tomorrow.
01:55:24We're starting early.
01:55:26Is that why?
01:55:28I don't give a damn.
01:55:30I've waited long enough.
01:55:32So prepare to be pleasured, my dear.
01:55:37Now?
01:55:39Now.
01:55:50Now.
01:56:07Now comes the fun part.
01:56:09Are you ready?
01:56:11Yes.
01:56:20Ah.
01:56:33I think we need more chocolate. What do you think?
01:56:36Definitely more.
01:56:42You better hold on tight because I'm planning to be thorough.
01:56:46As am I.
01:56:50Okay.
01:57:20Mr. Gabriel, if I may.
01:57:23Recently, I was contacted by Michael Wasserstein, our family attorney,
01:57:27telling me that you were making inquiries about our father, Owen Davies.
01:57:42I was told that you wanted to learn more about his family history.
01:57:46My name is Kelly Davies Schultz.
01:57:50And I'm your half-sister.
