'Connor' and Mary are hugging/necking and Emily walks in on them. She runs off, Mary sees her but 'Connor's' face is turned away against Mary's neck
'Connor': All right, I'm making an executive decision here. We'll renew our vows the last week of may. May, okay?
Mary laughs.
'Connor': That -- that should give you enough time to blow some of that new money on a beautiful dress.
Mary: You're going to spoil me.
'Connor': That's the whole point. I mean, with the kind of money that I'm making now, I can take you someplace special for our honeymoon. Any particular place that you've dreamed of?
Mary: Right here in your arms.
'Connor': It's our anniversary. All right? I mean, what -- what date is more significant to a married couple as happy as we are? I feel like we should be doing something, don't you?
Mary: Like what?
'Connor': I don't know. Celebrate. Go out -- go out dancing or something. Okay, okay -- a five-course meal with a different bottle of wine for every dish. Okay. I wish I would've known. I would've -- I would've driven you out to a country inn or something for the day and night instead of running all over the world for Lorenzo Alcazar.
Mary: Well, we couldn't have afforded it until you took the job.
'Connor': Hey, good point. But I did, and we can. So what's your pleasure?
Mary: You're home safe. We're renewing our vows at the end of the month. That's celebration enough for me.
'Connor': You are way too modest. You don't even know how amazing you are. No, I'm serious. I mean, you have shown such grace under pressure putting up with me, even when I'm being selfish and stubborn. I owe you a lot. And -- and now that I'm working, I'll finally be able to pay you back -- you know, take you places, buy you pretty things.
Mary: I love that you want to do that, but the only place I want to be is home with you in bed, laughing and talking and making love until -- until the sun comes up.
'Connor': Mm-hmm. Yes, I'll admit I can't think of anything that sounds better than that. But I need you to give me a couple of hours, okay?
Mary: You're going straight home, right?
'Connor': I may make a couple of stops, and don't bother asking me where because I'm not telling you anyway.
Mary: Okay, okay. It's going to be hard to wait, but I will.
'Connor': I'll be home in a couple hours.
Mary: Okay.
Mary: Hey.
Emily: Hey.
Mary: Are you all right?
Emily: Yeah. Why wouldn't I be?
Mary: I know you saw me in the park with my friend.
Emily: He seemed like a lot more than that.
Mary: Evidently, you still don't approve.
Emily: None of my business, Mary.
Mary: Look, I want you to be honest. You think it's too soon. You think that I'm -- I'm being unfaithful or I'm disrespecting the memory of my husband.
Emily: Yes, I do, Mary, and if you really want me to be honest, I'll go even further. I think you're being horribly selfish because when you're done feeling better with your substitute, when you realize that he isn't the real thing and he never will be, the only one who's going to be hurt is him.
Emily's voice: I think you're being horribly selfish because when you're done feeling better with your substitute, when you realize that he isn't the real thing and he never will be, the only one who's going to be hurt is him.
Mary: So did I wait long enough?
'Connor': Yes, your timing is perfect. You look sad. Did something happen?
Mary: I was just thinking about this time when I was a kid. I -- I trapped this bunny rabbit, and I took him home with me. And he was so cute and very special. And I wanted him to belong only to me. But after I had him, something about it felt wrong somehow, like I was keeping him from his real bunny life. So I set him free. Do you want to be free?
'Connor': I already am. My heart is free with you, which actually turns out to be a decent segue. I have something for you.
'Connor': Go on, open it.
Mary gasps.
Mary: Oh, my God, Connor.
'Connor': Is it okay?
Mary: Okay? It's -- it's incredible.
'Connor': Good.
Mary: But I have my old ring.
'Connor': Yes, I know. Give me your hand. This ring is a symbol of our first marriage. This -- this is about our new life together.
Mary: I don't know what to say. It's beautiful.
'Connor': And so are you.
