:51:00
You're lying, Ali.
:51:03
You're with McQueen, aren't you?
:51:07
"That's right."
:51:08
Well, expect me in El Paso tomorrow.
"It's too late, Evans.
:51:12
You missed the plane a long time ago."
:51:16
I flew out that night to Texas.
:51:18
Joshua and his nanny were
at the airport to greet me, but no Ali.
:51:25
I checked into a hotel 20 miles out of town.
:51:28
Holding back my tears,
I played with my son for the next hours.
:51:32
Ali arrived at 9 that evening.
:51:34
The last thing she wanted was
to spend the night with me. But she did.
:51:39
The next evening,
she didn't return to my border hideout.
:51:42
I sped into town, ran up the stairs
to Ali's hotel and banged on the door.
:51:47
"I need time to think.
Please, let me finish the picture...
:51:50
...and get home, for Josh's sake."
:51:54
On the plane back to L.A.,
I checked my watch.
:51:56
How could I have been
so fucking dumb?
:51:59
It's an hour-and-40-minute flight.
I never once took it...
:52:03
...until infidelity got me off my ass.
:52:11
Ali and McQueen had been
having an affair for months.
:52:15
Was it her fault?
:52:18
It was mine.
:52:20
I ignored her one promise,
never to leave her.
:52:24
Instead, I buried myself
into The Godfather.
:52:29
Ali filed for divorce.
:52:31
A few months later,
she and McQueen got hitched.
:52:35
Joshua would live with them.
:52:37
He would only know me now
as a weekend father.
:52:42
Did it haunt me?
:52:44
Well, let's just say, when a woman
leaves you, it ain't easy. It never is.
:52:49
But when that woman leaves you
for the biggest movie star in the world...
:52:52
...well, let's just say
it makes you feel small.
