And occasionally, they dined out.
:01:10
But tell me, you were saying you were
actually advised by Maupassant?
:01:15
Unfortunately, I was advised

Archer embraced his new marriage...
:01:23
...even as he reverted
to his old ideas about matrimony.
:01:28

:01:32

...the very roughness
he most wanted to keep.
:02:46
As for the madness with
Madame Olenska, he trained himself...
