Indiscretion Page #3

What did he say?

More than I expected.

Honey, he's giving us

his full support.

He even invited me

on his annual hunting trip

with some campaign

finance big shots.

I mean, it doesn't

get bigger than that.

Wow, that's great.

That's fantastic.

Congratulations.

Thank you.

Couldn't have done it

without you, sweetie.

That's sweet.

How are you holding up?

Good.

Just, you know,

a little exhausted.

I miss my girls.

You know, we should

we should plan a getaway

after the election is over,

get away from all the phones,

and the work

and responsibilities,

and just be together

as a family.

What do you say?

-I'd love that.

- How was your weekend alone?

You blasting Bob Seger

and dancing in your underwear?

Yeah, that's exactly

what I'm doing.

-Right now, in fact.

-I knew it.

Well, I'm actually driving

in my underwear, but...

Oh, honey, I'm sorry.

Somebody's calling.

It might be a patient.

No problem.

I love you.

I love you too.

Dr. Simon.

-Hello, Dr. Simon.

-Victor.

Oh, you haven't

forgotten about me yet.

How'd you get

this number?

Look, you told me you wanted

to be more creative, right?

So I got a place

that will inspire you.

I don't know.

Just bring your camera,

and you won't be disappointed.

I really shouldn't.

Come on, you'll

love it. Trust me.

I'm gonna show you

the heart of New Orleans.

Well, when you

put it that way.

Okay, where do I meet you?

Welcome.

Pretty awesome, right?

So cool.

And you've never been

to a krewe den before?

No, all these years

going to the parades.

Never once.

My mom used to bring

me to different dens

when I was a kid,

let me run around.

The artists do their thing.

Wow.

It was all papier-mache

back then.

Now it's mostly Styrofoam.

That way, it keeps it

lighter, you know?

Amazing images everywhere.

Yeah, nothing

is off-limits.

It's such a magical place.

Veronica?

Where'd you disappear to?

Come out, come out,

wherever you are.

Veronica?

Very funny.

Come out.

Veronica, where'd you go?

Veronica!

Seriously, Veronica!

Boo!

-Jesus.

-What the f***?

-Sorry. I'm sorry. I didn't.

-What are you doing?

-What's the matter with you?

-Why'd you scare me like that?

It was a joke.

I thought it would be funny.

-Jesus.

-I'm really sorry.

Look, it's...

It was just my training.

Look, it just kicked in.

I'm sorry, you...

This was a mistake.

I should go.

It's not a mistake,

all right?

Please.

Please, don't go.

Please.

Give me some of that.

Hey, can we steal more

of your dad's booze?

Sure.

-Let's go, dude.

-Let's go.

Thanks.

So... what do you

think about Pete?

Wait, are you trying

to hook me up

with that guy?

Come on. He's,

like, so cute.

Ellie, you know

I'm into Josh.

I don't want to hook up

with his weird friend.

Just relax, Lizzy.

Live a little.

I got one more

surprise for you.

Oh, Victor.

It's very sweet.

But we need to talk.

I mean, I love ballet.

But it's too structured,

you know?

They never let me

improvise at all.

What's in it?

Just Schnapps and 7-Up.

It's sweet.

I could tell

you're a virgin.

Excuse me?

I can smell it on you.

I got a nose

for these things.

You don't even

know me. Sure, I do.

You're the kind of girl who's

always got to prove something.

Like, I bet you'll wait till

you're out of college

just to have sex,

and every time

you feel like

a weirdo because of it

to your friends,

you just get angry

and start judging them.

Wow, you're a real charmer.

Is that how you get

all the girls?

Haven't failed yet.

So did your dad really

have an affair or what?

-Where are you going?

-Home.

What?

I'm saying that I can't

do this anymore.

I'm sorry. I...

But I hope you know

that we can still

be friends, okay?

We'll be friends, you

go back to your life,

and I just what?

None of this ever happened?

Look, I've had

a wonderful

time with you,

but I have to focus on

what's important now.

What's important?

You know what

I mean, my family.

I have responsibilities

that I've been

pretending don't exist.

So are you gonna

tell your husband?

No. He would kill

you and me both.

-I'm not afraid of him.

-Well, you should be.

He goes to

the rifle range

every weekend.

Are you kidding me?

He has an affair

and what...

What am I to you?

Just some revenge plot?

No, you know that's

not the case.

So why would you

do this to me?

I was caught up

in a beautiful

moment with you.

I'm sorry.

I feel a connection to you,

a real connection.

I mean, I know you

do too. I feel it.

And I'm very touched

and honored by that,

but I've been married

for 20 years.

I have a daughter.

I'm committed to them.

It's a whole

different world.

This would never work.

I've never felt

this way before.

Now, I want to make sure

that we're clear on this issue.

I am for gun control,

but I am not anti-gun.

I just want to make sure

that they don't fall

into the wrong hands.

Now, I know this is

not a popular issue

among our party.

I'm sure there are

some of you at this table

who do not share my...

Hey, Lizzy, it's Neil.

Is my dad around?

He's in a meeting.

What's up?

I can't reach Mom

and I need a ride.

All right, hang tight.

Let me figure something

out here, okay?

-Just tell him I'll walk.

-No, no, no.

Just text me your address

and I'll send you a car, okay?

You should be,

wha... Lizzy?

Oh, Jesus Christ.

...stance on this

particular issue.

I want to be

the first person

to do that, okay?

Uh...

Sorry to interrupt,

but, Jake,

can I borrow you

for a second?

Yeah, certainly.

Excuse me one moment.

I'll be right back.

This better be important.

Making progress in there.

I am sorry about that,

but it's your daughter.

Well, what now?

I mean, look at you.

You've got your whole life

ahead of you.

You don't need

to be tangled up

in the drama of

some married woman.

You're amazing.

And you're gonna make

some other girl so happy.

Don't you get it?

I don't want some other girl.

I want you. That's

all I want is you.

But I'm not available.

I shouldn't have come here.

This was a mistake.

And maybe you should

have thought of that

before you spent

the weekend with me, huh?

I bared my soul to you.

I gave you everything

that I have.

What are you...

What are you

talking about?

I love you.

You're in...

But it's... it's

only been two days.

Lizzy, it's Dad.

Call me back right away.

Come on, Ronnie.

Pick up. Pick up.

We had a wonderful

time together.

We did, but that's it.

That's all it

can be. What...

That's it?

Really?

I should go.

No, you should stay.

-Let's just talk about this.

-No.

We can figure out how

to get through this. Just...

I got to leave.

Why would you lead me on?

I mean, what the f***

is the matter with you?

Don't you give

a sh*t about me?

Think about it.

When you first met me,

you knew right away

that I was taken.

So you knew what you

were getting into.

I thought you were

a guy who wanted

to have a good time,
