no strings attached.

I've never done

this before.

I don't know.

I'm sorry. I really

didn't mean to hurt you.

And now I wish I never

met you, okay?

I understand that.

So, what, now you're just

gonna throw me in the trash?

Go home and tell

all your rich friends

that you went slumming it

with some artist for a weekend?

No.

Get out of my house.

Goodbye, Victor.

I'm truly sorry.

Hi, honey, what's up?

-Do you know where Lizzy is?

-Yeah, she's at Ellie's.

No, she is not.

She's walking home alone.

-What?

-Yeah, I was just in a meeting.

-Neil called me out to tell me.

-Oh, jeez.

I think... I think

that my ringer was off.

I'm so sorry.

I'll... I'll go get her.

Don't worry about it.

Please, and call me

the minute you hear

from her, okay?

-I will. I will.

-Thank you.

Lizzy, it's Mommy.

Where are you?

You have to call

me right now.

Oh, thank God!

Lizzy, get in the car.

No!

Honey, how many times

have I told you

not to walk

alone at night?

It's not safe.

I can take care of myself.

Honey, get in the car.

Lizzy, now!

Sorry for yelling.

I'm just worried, okay?

Are you all right?

I'm fine.

No, you're not.

What's up?

Just leave me alone,

all right?

I just wish I had

a normal life like

everybody else.

Look, I'm sorry that

we've been so preoccupied

with Daddy's campaign.

Everybody thinks

I'm a freak.

That my dad is some

cheating politician.

God, it's so embarrassing.

Honey, those

are just rumors.

I mean, you know,

he's running for office,

and there's a lot of

people who don't want

to see him elected.

But why would somebody

make that up?

It doesn't make any sense.

Well, don't people

make things up in school

to hurt people's feelings?

You know, they tell

lies, spread rumors.

Mom, I'm not a little kid.

I'm not gonna fall

for your shrink bullshit.

It's not bullshit.

The real world is

not that different

from high school.

Just tell me

the truth, all right?

Do you really think

that your father

would have an affair?

I don't know,

did you do something

that would have made him?

Of course not.

I'm gonna push you.

I'm gonna push you.

What did it

really feel like

to set aside

your own political ambition,

even though you're a doctor,

but clearly

had political aspirations

and to take second seat?

Second seat was fine

as long as I felt

that we were striving

toward something as a family,

that we were something real

and that we were

building together.

I think when I discovered

that what I had signed up for,

this traditional

family structure,

this traditional marriage,

with all of its, uh...

concomitant values

and commitments,

was not exactly

what I thought it was,

then I became

a little bitter.

You guys ready for

the big surprise?

Put the phone away.

No more texting,

here we go.

-Fine.

-Close your eyes.

Close your eyes,

close your eyes, honey.

-Okay.

-Close 'em.

All right, just follow me.

I got you. I got you.

-Oh, no.

-I got you.

We're walking the plank.

We're gonna end up

in the water.

-It's gonna happen.

-No, no, no, I got you.

All right, right here.

Okay, ready?

And one, two, three,

open your eyes.

Tada!

What do you think, huh?

Is she gorgeous?

What is this?

It's our getaway, honey.

Are you serious?

A boat?

Can I go check it out?

Yeah. Go ahead,

sweetie.

Isn't she great?

-It's incredible.

-Come on.

-Look at this.

-She's a 33-foot racer-cruiser.

Watch your step.

And, boy, is she yar.

-I'm on a boat.

-I figured we'd

take a few days off

after the elections,

sail up the coast.

What do you say?

Oh, that would

be wonderful.

It's been such

a long time

since we were out

on the water together.

-What's down there?

-That is the cabin.

-You want to check it out?

-Absolutely.

All right,

mind your head.

-Thank you.

-Okay.

Here you go, honey.

You okay?

Yeah, it's nothing.

I just, uh...

I'm sorry I snapped at you

on the phone the other night.

I'm... that was

wrong of me.

You don't have

to apologize.

No, I shouldn't have

spoken to you like that.

I worry about

you guys, you know?

I wish I could always

be there to protect you.

And I was thinking,

maybe we should hire

a security detail.

What do you think?

I don't know.

I think that what

Lizzy needs now

is normalcy,

not more people looking

over her shoulder.

You know, she needs to

feel that we trust her.

Yeah? Yeah, well,

you're probably right.

You know more about

kids than I do.

Victor.

What are you doing here?

You haven't

returned my calls.

Right, but I'm busy.

I'm working.

You shouldn't

really be here.

I just wanted to see you.

This is inappropriate.

I mean, this is

where I work.

You can't just show up

like this, all right?

Look, hey, I missed you.

What are you doing?

Nothing.

Victor, you should stop.

Bet you this is one

of your fantasies, huh?

Come on, stop it.

You all right?

That really what you want?

Is that all right?

I bet you you

dreamt about this

all the time, right?

Oh, my God. It's...

it's my next appointment.

That's all right.

That's all right.

Stop it. I have to

answer the door.

-I have to answer the door.

-It's okay.

I have to answer

the door. Stop it.

Damn it.

Be back soon.

Hi, I'm Jake Simon,

and I'd like your vote.

-Hey.

-Hey.

What are you

doing here?

Well, I was canvassing

in the neighborhood,

and there's only

so many doors

a guy can get

slammed in his face.

I was wondering if you

wanted to grab lunch

and maybe go over

the images for

the new campaign poster.

-What do you think?

-Oh, they're great, honey.

-They're yeah.

-Yeah?

They're great, yeah.

I like 'em,

but Neil's not so sure.

Oh, Neil.

I'm sorry, are you...

Are you with a patient?

Actually, yeah.

It's one of my

more difficult cases.

-Oh, I'm sorry.

-That's okay.

Why don't I just...

I'm close to

the end anyway.

I'll just get rid of him

and then be with you, okay?

-Okay? Yeah.

-Sure.

-I'll wait right here.

-Great.

Victor, all right,

here's how it's gonna go.

I'm gonna leave,

and then you stay

for a few minutes,

and then you leave, okay?

What are you doing?

-I'm not finished yet.

-No, no, no.

This is not cool.

No. No.

Listen, it's my

husband out there.

It's my husband.

Well, maybe I should

go out and say hi, huh?

Oh, come on.

Stop it, Victor.

He'd probably like

to meet me, right?

No, no.

Stop it.

Come on, what are you doing?

Why are you acting this way?

I just want

to be with you.

Victor, come on.

You got to

cut it out now.

It's just been

a few days, okay?

You got to cut it out.

You got...

This is serious.

Well, every minute without

you is like an eternity

when you love someone

as much as I love you.

Stop it!

Come on.

I love you.

Ow! Jesus Christ!

Victor, look what you did.

That hurt.

You be quiet now.

Don't smile.

I'm sorry.

-Stop it.

-I'm really sorry.

Honey, honey,

this has turned into

a little bit of

a crisis case.

I don't think I can

get away right now.
