The Moores travel through Europe, visiting Copenhagen and later Paris. After walking through parts of the latter city on her own, Kate reunites with Dexter and her children for dinner. While ordering, she realizes that they are seated next to Julia and Bill. They meet again for drinks later that night, and Bill’s taste for luxury goods impresses Dexter.
At a nightclub, Kate takes a picture of her friends and mentally compares the alpha male Bill with her needy, nerdy husband. Kate sees Bill looking at her suggestively. Later, Kate watches Bill take another woman someplace private. Julia seductively dances with another man before looking at Dexter.
Leaving the club, two men accost Dexter. Bill tries to defuse the situation by offering them Julia’s purse. He suddenly disarms them, forcing them to flee.
Kate waits for her children outside of their school, thinking about the night she and Dexter had gone to the club with the Macleans. Dexter later tells Kate that he will be home late—not because of work but because he and Bill are playing tennis. Dexter is away for so long that it upsets their children.
Julia visits Kate’s house to use her internet connection, so Kate leaves her to work on the home computer.
