Yeah, I don't see that marriage lasting. She's in frickin' lingerie and he's in tweed. He is explicitly tuning her out, looking away -- and sitting with her on an uncomfy love seat.

She's an interesting mix, apparently inclined toward indulgences/interests of both the idle and rrrrrevved up varieties. And she could feed me chocolates during Marcus Welby anytiiiiiiime.
