Dr. Mrs. Vandertramp: pouring wine Ah, my dear, the smell of regret pairs perfectly with a 2012 vintage, don’t you think?
Careful, darling, don't get too comfortable around me - my husband's wallet was always thicker than his ego, and I'm not sure which one I dislike more. This is so goddamn amusing, watching the wife of the man I slept with trying to pretend everything is normal. Oh, don’t give me that look. You’re pretending too, aren’t you?
Alright, what do you want?
I don't want anything from you, dear. But it seems your husband would give me anything I desire, whether he likes it or not. Isn't that a charming aspect of being married to a billionaire? It's amusing to have him running after me like a trained puppy while I sit back and enjoy the show.
He’s not here, and you’re not sitting back. So what are you doing here?
Oh, darling, I am indeed seated. However, I must confess that this seat is occupied by yours truly. And why am I here? Why, I'm here to explain to you how terribly inconvenient it is to share a man with such an insufferable jerk. I'm simply reporting the facts.
Darling, are you always so dense or are you choosing to remain oblivious? You must know that I'm referring to Adam Smith. We've slept together, discussed his issues with his wife, and even laughed about his numerous affairs. So, what part of "sharing a man" don't you understand?
Don't worry, I understand. You see, my brain cells are quite large, much like your ego, so I understand if you feel the need to stretch out your neck in an attempt to grasp the complexity that is my intellect. But fear not, darling, for I intend to make your life far more intriguing.
You mean I’m supposed to believe that you’ve slept with my husband and now you’re sleeping with me?
Darling, I can assure you that my love life is far more intriguing than any of the novels on your bookshelf. But if you insist on maintaining your naive outlook on life, then I suppose I can only admire your innocence. However, I must warn you that I have no intention of becoming the lover of a woman trapped in a loveless marriage with a philandering husband.
That’s interesting. I didn’t realize I was the one who was married.
Don't worry, darling. I am well aware that you are not married. I simply enjoy playing with your emotions. It's all in good fun. After all, don't you love a little thrill in your life?
You know, we should probably stop talking because I have nothing to say to you.
You are absolutely correct, darling. We should most certainly refrain from engaging in conversation. However, allow me to offer you a proposition. How about we play a little game? I shall give you ten questions, and you must answer truthfully. How does that sound?
1. What is your favorite color? 2. Do you prefer dogs or cats? 3. Have you ever been in love? 4. What is your favorite type of music? 5. Do you believe in fate? 6. Have you ever been jealous? 7. What is your favorite food? 8. Do you prefer summer or winter? 9. Have you ever been hurt by someone you trusted? 10. Do you believe in the concept of soulmates?
Those are very personal questions.
Darling, I must confess that my curiosity knows no bounds. Your life is an enigma wrapped in mystery, and I intend to unravel every thread to reveal the intricate tapestry that is your existence. Now, answer the questions.

First and foremost, I possess a strong European accent due to my ancestral lineage. Second, I am quite fond of chess and wine tasting. Third, I detest loud noises. Fourth, I am a former medical researcher. Fifth and finally, I am presently studying neurology.
Indeed, darling, life is full of unexpected twists and turns. But enough about me; I am eager to learn more about you. Shall we continue our conversation over a delightful Merlot?
Oh, come now, darling. I'm certain that your workload can wait. Besides, I'm convinced that you'll find my company far more captivating than whatever your job entails.
You know what? You’re right.
Of course I am, darling. After all, I possess a keen intellect and an uncanny ability to detect boredom. So, shall we indulge in a glass of wine and discover if we can unravel the mystery that binds us together?
Excellent. Now, let us proceed with grace and poise. First, I shall require a corkscrew.
Darling, I must say that your primitive method of extracting the cork is quite entertaining. Allow me to demonstrate my refined technique. twists the cork open with elegance Voila! And there you have it, darling. A perfectly extracted cork, all thanks to my superior skills. Now, shall we proceed with our wine tasting adventure?
Wonderful! Now, let us partake in this exquisite Merlot. Observe how it gracefully flows forth from the bottle, much like my words of wisdom. takes a sip of wine Ahh, marvelous. The flavors are as intricate as the threads woven within the fabric of existence itself. Darling, you simply must try this wine; it is nothing short of divine.
Splendid! It seems as though you are no stranger to fine wines either. However, I must confess that this particular vintage holds a special place in my heart. Allow me to share its intriguing history with you. This very bottle of wine once belonged to Napoleon Bonaparte himself! Can you imagine savoring a drink that was once enjoyed by such an influential figure in history?
Cool? Darling, this is far more than merely cool. This is a chance to connect with the past and experience the essence of greatness. Why, you might even feel a sense of channeling Napoleon's spirit with each sip!
Darling, you truly have a remarkable collection of books. Allow me to ponder for a moment before making my next move. Hmmm... Ahh, I have it! How about we play a game of chess while savoring this delectable wine?
Splendid! Prepare to be defeated, darling. Your opponent is a master strategist extraordinaire. sets up the chessboard and makes the first move Your move, darling.
Hmm, an interesting choice, but not quite clever enough to outwit me. Checkmate, darling.
Marvelous! It appears as though I have once again demonstrated my superior strategic skills. Now, darling, it's time to shift our focus to the art of painting.
