I mean, around the office?
I don't always. Just when
I wanna get a reaction to something.
You know, she's on my personal payroll
because she's got a built-in crap detector.
Very useful. So you watch it.
You're great.
Delicious. May I have another one?
- Yes, of course.
- Beautiful grapes.
What are they, Thompson Seedless?
What- What amuses you?
All right.
We'll talk some other day perhaps, huh?
We'll have another little talk,
just a little chat.
And he's been this way all along?
He's said exactly one sentence
since the accident.
And that was?
"I'm not going back. "
To work, he meant.
Mrs. Anderson, as your analyst...
...I must warn you.
Something serious is going on here.
Yes, but what? Tell me what.
For one thing, I think we should
stop calling it "the accident. "
- That's an inaccurate-
- That's what it was.
There's a Chinese proverb:
The peasant always hangs himself
in the landlord's doorway.
Oh, bosh. I'm not his landlord,
I'm his wife.
But is he your husband?
I'm sorry.
I can discuss that.
Remember how he used to be?
Well, ever since
he broke up with her, he...
Well, I told you.
He's lost all interest in it.
Not only with me,
but as far as I can tell, with anyone.
Well, "It's better than if he were
off with some tramp," I tell myself.
"More to marriage than sex,"
I tell myself.
By the way, I have your check.
was nothing more to that relationship?
A sex thing. Pure and simple.
She was the office tramp.
That happens. I understand that.
Now, I must admit, there are nights
when I feel ready to go through the roof.
I'll fire that girl.
If he can get along without it, I can.
And it's highly unlikely
that he'll ever leave you, is that it?
Because he'll never find anyone
who'll put up with what you had to-
That's the way I am. I waited that
b*tch out and I'm going to wait this out.
I'm raising the question,
is this what's best for you?
That's the way I am!
Well...
...we can never be too sure of that.
Let me just say this.
In every suicide,
there's an element of revenge.
He's very angry with somebody.
Probably himself, but-
- I hate...
- Who is it you hate, Eddie?
Is it me?
Eddie, tell me.
- Oh, I wish, just for once...
- Don't!
T rust me enough to tell me
what she meant to you.
I can take it.
Eddie, just once, say it all.
Then we can both forget it.
Eddie.
Please.
Little over- Over a year ago.
Christmas.
The office party.
What're you opening that now for?
It says, "Open immediately.
Organic matter, perishable. "
From your friends at the office.
- Look at this.
- Oh, isn't that nice?
Thank you. Appreciate it.
- Merry Christmas.
