Mr.Blue: So how did you like the food?


Avarice: Oh it was great! Thanks again for the invite; it really helped me relax a bit!


Mr.Blue: I am glad you had a good time!


Mr.Blue: By the way Avarice, I think I can help you with your little problem


Mr.Blue: That is if you want me to of course ..


Avarice: Well, yeah sure, I’d appreciate it. But it is a bit too complicated ..


Mr.Blue: I’m sure we will figure this out. C’mon, let’s go inside!


Mr.Blue: Avarice, Sindy .. meet Caprice, the answer to all your problems!


Miss Aqua: Your words are flattering Mr.Blue
Mr.Blue: We both know they are true. Now say hi to our guests


Avarice: Hello Caprice
Miss Aqua: Hello Avarice, Sindy ..


Avarice: So what is this solution you talked about?


Mr.Blue: Well Avarice, the first thing you have to realize is that your relationship with your wife has run its course. You have to know that it is time for you to leave, for your own good


Mr.Blue: Your wife is in this relationship for the wrong reasons. To her you are a prize for winning a petty feud, and a constant reassurance that she can subdue and outshine a man


Avarice: Wow, wow, wow! I’m her prize? And I reassure her? Aren’t you getting a little ahead of yourself?


Mr.Blue: No I’m not. Think about it and I’m sure you’ll notice that she has always put you down, from the beginning, and it only increased once she wrote that book because she had an excuse to belittle you. And didn’t you two get together directly after Sindy rejected you?


Mr.Blue: You know I’m making perfect sense. Don’t be in disbelief, people can get into relationships for the wrong reasons and then don’t know how to get out. Sindy’s relationship with me is another example ..


Sindy: What? What do you mean?
Mr.Blue: Oh dear Sindy, let’s stop pretending. We both know you’re in this for the money!


Sindy: I so am not! I can’t believe you’re accusing me of this!


Mr.Blue: Look, I’m not saying it’s your fault. I know you have a bad history in relationships, and you’re not to blame for wanting to stick around with me because you found security, financial and emotional. But I can tell you that you belong with Avarice, because you never stopped regretting not giving him a chance


Mr.Blue: That’s why I am going to give you both the opportunity to turn your lives around Avarice, and that will happen once you move to Bridgeport


Avarice: All the way to Bridgeport!? And what are we supposed to do there?


Mr.Blue: Well, you will finally start achieving your aspirations. I have arranged for you to get the lead role in an upcoming blockbuster movie filmed at the Bridgeport movie studio. As for Sindy, she gets her own Art exhibition in two months


Mr.Blue: You two will also get a penthouse apartment to live in, that way you get your lives on track and you can finally give your relationship a genuine chance


Avarice: I’m so confused and shocked right now, but I’ll play along. What’s the catch? What do you want in return for being so generous?


Miss Aqua: We will need your signature and your discretion ..


Miss Aqua: You will sign your divorce papers over at the table and our lawyers will take care of the rest


Miss Aqua: Then you leave for Bridgeport, tonight. You don’t pack anything at all, you just go! Everything has been arranged. Then you go live your new lives and forget all about this one, you just never look back or try to come back!


Avarice: This is sounding more and more like instructions rather than an offer ... What if we come back? Or if we don’t want to go at all?


Miss Aqua: You won’t give up the life of fame and success! Your dreams will come true!


Miss Aqua: But in case you’re stupid enough to not appreciate this offer, there is always a way to be a bit more persuasive …


Mr.Blue: So .. what do you say?
