You do realize it's not appropriate for
me to discuss my personal life with you.
I think
it would really help me
if you did.
All right.
What do you
want to know?
Was there ever a time when you
thought that cheating was wrong?
Of course.
I still do.
Then how do
you justify it? Don't you feel bad?
Yes.
No.
All of the above.
I do part-time consulting
for Cheryl's agency.
She works
with abused children.
We spent
a lot of time together.
I invited her
for coffee.
We talked,
we talked more.
We wanted to spend
more time together.
I suppose I am what you
might call a hypocrite.
It must bring you great joy
to hear me say that.
No, no.
It doesn't.
Her husband doesn't show her
any affection.
- That's an excuse.
- He's always gone.
- Excuse.
- He's been cheating.
- Excuse. - And maybe...
- Excuse!
Maybe she'll leave him?
Excuse.
I just came to let you know
that my dad and I made up.
I'm very glad.
And, okay.
He helped me
to get this back.
"Franny and Zooey."
And as we often say
in my profession,
how did that
make you feel?
Like maybe I should finish
that silly,
or not so silly,
list that I threw
in your general direction?
Oh, I was hoping
you'd say that.
You saved it.
Just in case.
I have a photographic memory,
remember?
Thank you.
So, what are you going
to do about Mrs. Rubin?
I don't know.
Contrary to what the degrees
on the wall may imply,
I don't have
all the answers.
I wouldn't trust anyone
who thought that they did.
Maybe you need
to make her a list.
"Five ways
to leave her husband."
You know, sometimes...
you really remind me
of your mother.
Thanks.
I'll take that
as a compliment.
Compliment intended.
You are allowed
to be happy, Carrie.
You know that,
don't you?
Your mom
would want that for you.
