She's 24, a dance major. I eat

anything she tells me to.

Ew!

Where's your guy?

I think we just broke up.

No! How come?

A pipe burst in his house and

he went back to Connecticut.

And where in the story

does he act like a jerk?

It's how he handled it.

You're being paranoid.

No, something feels off.

And when I get this feeling,

I'm usually always right.

Oh, please! Every relationship

I've ever had, something felt off.

That's probably why you're

wrapping up divorce number five

with one of my sorority sisters.

You really like this guy, huh?

So forget all this bullshit

and go surprise him.

It's not bullshit.

It is.

Put on something sexy, get

your ass out to Connecticut...

...and fix that

young man's plumbing.

Don't worry, you look good.

He'll love it.

Who?

Whoever.

Here you go.

Thanks for the ride.

Need me to wait?

Nah, I think I got it.

Hi.

Hi.

I'm looking for Mark.

Oh. What's this about?

I'm Carly. You must

be his housekeeper.

No, I'm his wife, Kate.

Is this some kind of

stripper-gram or something?

Oh.

No. No. I have

the wrong address.

I'm looking for

a different Mark.

Mark Kink.

Mark King?

No! No, no.

He's a short guy? Bald?

Lives a couple of

streets over on Clark.

There is no Clark Street.

Anyway...

Ooh! Ah! Ah!

Oh, my God!

Sh*t.

Um. I'll send you

a check for your urn.

Can't forget this.

What happened?

It must be big. You were crazy

about him two days ago.

It can't be the sex... you were a lot

nicer and your hair was more shiny.

He has a wife, okay?

He's married.

You don't think

you can take her?

That's not the point.

I don't do married guys.

I don't need to wreck

someone's home for a date.

It's not always a wreck. Stan

and I were married when we met.

We weren't happy.

Now we are.

You wrecked two marriages!

First, one was mine, so that

doesn't count. Second...

...Stan's wife was fat,

with no sexual charisma.

That marriage was doomed,

so it wasn't cheating.

I don't think

that's how it works.

But I think a married guy

is a perfect fit for you.

Mark was able to lead

a whole other life

Without you even noticing.

You need a guy with

something to keep him busy.

Not a wife!

I don't do this. I'm

too old for this sh*t.

I've been dating for decades!

I don't need this anymore!

Somebody's being negative.

I'll go.

I'll tell you what my mother

told me... words to live by.

Selfish people live longer.

I'm just saying.

Miss Whitten? There's someone

here to see you... Kate King.

Hi. I'm Kate.

I met you on Friday.

Yeah, I remember. Sorry about your urn.

Why are you here?

Um, I found your number

in my husband's phone.

So, um...

Well, actually, the phone bill,
