- Man: Mrs. Parker. How can I help?
- Eileen Parker: I'd like to separate from my husband. Better still, divorce.
- Man: Do you mind me asking, on what grounds?
- Eileen Parker: The fact I never see him.
- Man: Absence isn't a legal ground for divorce.
- Eileen Parker: Neglect?
- Man: Nor that, I'm afraid. You're going to need one of the big three: Adultery, unreasonable behavior or insanity.
- Eileen Parker: I'm quite sure there has been adultery.
- Man: We will need evidence.
- Eileen Parker: That won't be easy. Because of his job. Mike works for the Duke of Edinburgh.
- Man: In what capacity?
- Eileen Parker: His private secretary.
- Man: Oh, I see.
- Eileen Parker: He's also his closest friend. They're virtually inseparable.
- Man: Are you really sure about this? A divorce can leave a woman quite isolated. Maybe things will get better if you stick it out. I tend to think that's always the best way for everyone. Grass is rarely greener.
- Eileen Parker: I will come back when I have evidence.
- Eileen Parker: So you telephoned me and agreed to come here today for what, precisely? To put color into my nightmares?
- Lily: I'm sorry.
