although it seemed like all her fears
turned into worries about me.

1:04:10
So now that I'm married...
1:04:12
and she's visiting
our new house...

1:04:15
I hope she can finally

1:04:31

- Oh, Mom? Mom--
- What's this?

1:04:54
Why don't you, uh, rest
in the living room?

1:04:56
I'll make you
some tea, okay?

1:04:58

No, it's, uh...
1:05:37
it's just, uh, I was
never very good at math.

1:05:39
So what if I had a salad
and he had three courses?

1:05:43
We were equals.
1:05:45
Except that I work in his firm
and he pays himself...

1:05:48
seven times more
than he pays me.

1:05:52
Seven and a half.
1:05:56
And then last year, when we
finally decided to get married...

1:05:59
we agreed: love, yes;
false dependencies, no.
