Lawyer Gavin d’Amato is in his office discussing a divorce case with a taciturn client.

Eventually, the two marry and have two children and settle in Washington D.C. Over the years, the Roses grow richer, and Barbara finds an old mansion whose owner has recently died, and purchases it. However, cracks seem to be forming in the family, such as the children being overweight due to Barbara spoiling them with treats.

Oliver, for his part, cannot understand what he has done to earn Barbara’s contempt, oblivious to his controlling, self-centered, indifferent, and generally dismissive behavior toward her. When Oliver believes he is suffering a heart attack the day after an argument, Barbara does not show any remorse or concern for his well-being, and ultimately admits that she no longer loves him and wants a divorce. Oliver accepts, but tension arises between the two during a meeting with Barbara’s lawyer when Barbara makes it clear that she wants the house and everything in it, even using Oliver’s final love note to her (which he had written in the hospital) as leverage against him in their legal battle.
