During their housewarming the wife thanks her husband for buying the new home; her mother and old classmates are downstairs ready to celebrate. She says Tyler won't return until the end of the year and claims she'll enjoy herself while he's away. She goes downstairs to fetch wine and asks her husband to take care of Mom. Later she answers a call: "Nothing's wrong," she says, then tells the caller, "I'll wait for you to come back at the end of the year." That private promise contradicts her public plan and leaves the celebration and her choice unresolved.
