example of the yobling relationship:
Warrick: Hey Catherine.
Catherine: Yes?
Warrick: Can we talk?... About this?
(He lifts his hand up with the wedding ring)
Catherine: Sure.
Warrick: You know what happened to Nick. It just got me thinkin'. Life is so short, you know. It's almost... so much shorter than we wanna have to believe.
Catherine: Live for the day.
Warrick: Exactly. I ah... I went ahead and asked this young lady I've been seeing, Tina, to marry me.
Catherine: You know that I'm happy for you?
Warrick: Yeah?
Catherine:.. yeah.
Warrick: Well, it also feels like you're not so happy for me.
(long pause)
Catherine: Warrick... you know the thing that makes a fantasy great is the possibility that it might come true. And when you lose that possibility, it just kinda...sucks.
Warrick: Hey Catherine.
Catherine: Yes?
