The Affair

Previously on The Affair...

Mr. Solloway, thanks for coming in.

Well, like I had much of a choice.

Where's Martin?

- I hate grandpa. - I know. So do I.

At least you stand to inherit some of his money when he dies.

So I read your book.

Everyone has one book in them.

Almost nobody has two.

- Why're you laughing? - It's...

- What? What are you laughing at? - Your face is a little funny.

That's all.

Welcome to the end of the world.

Do you remember the first time you saw her?

Like it was yesterday.

Ms. Lockhart, do you remember seeing him for the first time?

- Turn her over. - Hit her hard!

I remember he was holding his daughter.

- -

You saved her life. I'm Noah, by the way.

Why don't you tell me how it began?

How many times do you think we've had sex?

10,000?

Yeah, maybe.

Let's try to have a good day today.

I wake up every morning with his face in my mind too.

It just hurts. Make it stop.

- Alison? - You found me!

- I found you. - Oh, hi.

You live around here?

Walk me home then?

I think you want to see this.

- I got to go. - Thanks for the walk.

Oh, no.

So go.

- Leave me alone! - Stop it!

How much longer is this gonna take?

I just have a few more questions.

Sink back into the ocean.

_

Listen, I had no idea she was married when I first met her.

I mean, how would I have known? She never mentioned it.

She seemed like the loneliest girl in the world.

I just thought she was bad news.

So, after that first night I went out of my way to avoid her.

I had my second book on my mind.

I was under a lot of pressure to get it done, make it good.

I just picked up a copy of that book.

I'm looking forward to reading it.

Oh, good for you, man.

I hope you enjoy it.

Anyway, the point is I wasn't thinking about her at all.

Oh, go...

- -

Hi.

Hey.

Want some company?

Uh...

not really.

Gee, thanks.

I'm just taking some me time.

You know, you're not as much fun as you used to be.

I was never fun. I think you've become more fun.

I think that's the problem.

I'm gonna go find a pool boy that lets me shower with him.

Can we have breakfast together before you do?

Ready? Whoops, that's a big one.

Go for it.

They're in the cabinet next to the fridge.

Advil, right?

I could have sworn they were there last summer.

They were.

Mother had an efficiency expert re-do the kitchen.

That's right, and she was worth every penny.

I got years of my life back.

- Coffee! - Miranda,

make sure the caterers know we increased the guest count

to 200 people.

Good morning, Mr. Solloway.

- Hello, Ruby. - Checkmate!

- No, it isn't. - Yes, it is.

Trevor, it's highly unlikely you're gonna win this game.

I'm older and I'm smarter...

Well, you could let him win, Dad.

- Why would I do that? - Because he's ten.

So we're gonna let him think he's better than he is?

How will real life feel?

He'll be an adult in real life,

- so it will feel fine. - Checkmate.

Daddy, please make me a cappuccino.

I would, Whit, if I could work out how to use this...

Don't touch that!

It's a very temperamental machine.

We've had such headaches

with well-intentioned visitors

inadvertently reprogramming it.

Miranda, would you please...

Cappuccino or espresso?

Macchiato, please. Thank you.

Oh, my God! Miranda, the flowers!

We completely, utterly, entirely forgot to order flowers.

- Oh, no. - What are we gonna do?

Calm down. Just relax. It's okay.

Noah and I will go to the farmer's market today.

I'll get you some flowers, and I'll arrange them for you.

Noah shouldn't have to spend his Saturday like that.

He doesn't mind.

Do you?

Not at all.

Great!

How come Ruby's hanging out with us again?

I thought you guys said she was a bad influence.

'Cause she's a friend of your sister's,

and I think that she's grown up a lot this year.

I heard she got expelled.

- Is that true? - No.

She spent a little time in rehab.

Horsies! Stop!

I want to pet the horsie!

Uh, we can't stop now, honey,

but on the way back we can.

But I want to pet the horsie!

You will. I promise. On the way back.

I used to ride there when I was a little girl.

Do you know how many times you've told me that?

Well, you repeat things too, you know.

There's a really nice woman that ran that ranch.

She had four boys.

They must be all grown up by now.

Mm. I knew that.

I spy with my little eye something white.

Something white?

Her dress.

- Yes. -

I spy with my little eyes...

What? What do you see?

Disaster.

- Hello. - Hi.

Would you like to try a sample?

- Yes. - Okay.

This one is strawberry-peach.

How do you like it? Better than the blueberry?

Hm.

- And this one... - How are you?

I'm fine.

- How do you like it? - Mm-hmm.

I've been, uh... a bit worried about you, uh...

Do you two know each other?

Not really.

- Apples? - Yes, it has apples in it,

but there's also a secret ingredient.

- Cinnamon? - Yes.

What a smart girl you are.

So you want one?

Daddy, can we have it?

Sure, honey. Yeah.

It's 12 bucks, please.

I've only got a 20, so, uh, keep the change.

No, thanks.

- Hey. Here you are. - Mama!

Hey!

Everything okay?

Yeah. Everything's fine.

Horsies! Horsies!

Uh, I promised...

All right.

- - All right.

I think, really, they heard it. Nice work.

Howdy.

Hi, I'm Helen Butler.

I used to ride here when I was a kid.

But you were very young, so you probably don't remember.

Isn't that something?

It's good to see you again, Helen.

- Is this your daughter? - Yes.

We would like to sign her up for some lessons.

I'm sure that can be arranged.

Hey!

This is my brother, Hal.

He can help you pick out a horse.

- What's your name? - Stacey.

Come with me, Stacey.
